85-inch OLED TVs – Test Rankings

Available screen sizes: 48”, 55”, 65”, 77”, 83”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: SONY

Verdict:

BRAVIA 6 can deliver a lot of viewing pleasure, especially in the evening when the advantages of the OLED panel are most visible. Deep blacks, good contrast and natural colors after calibration make it easy to appreciate its picture with the right material. It also performs well for console gaming: it provides smooth motion and responds quickly to controller input. It's also nice to see four full ...

Verdict:

Samsung S85H is a very successful continuation of the S85 series and a TV that still performs its main role well: to be an affordable entry into the world of OLEDs. The biggest change from its predecessor is the use of LG Display's new OLED SE panel, but the overall character of this model remains practically unchanged. Its greatest strengths are still perfect blacks, very high contrast and a pict...

Brand: LG

Verdict:

The C6H is an even more interesting TV, because the use of a Tandem OLED panel has pushed the C series into territory until now reserved for much pricier models. We still get all the advantages of the regular C6, but the panel's capabilities are on a completely different level. HDR shows this best. In many scenes we measured around 2000 nits, and at times even 2300 nits, results previously seen on...

Verdict:

The LG OLED B6 is a very successful continuation of the B series and a TV that makes a lot of sense as a first step into OLED. It doesn't try to compete with the most expensive models in every respect, but on the most important points it still delivers exactly what many people choose the technology for: perfect black, very high contrast, and a picture that can simply look spectacular in movies. Th...

Verdict:

Samsung S90H is a TV that simply makes a spectacular impression. The combination of OLED's absolute blacks, high brightness, and excellent motion sharpness delivers a picture that's hard to look away from. And that's exactly what we expect from a good OLED TV. The matte anti-reflective coating also works very well. Reflections on a sunny day stop being a major problem, and thanks to the presence o...

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung S99H is probably the best OLED TV we’ve tested so far, and certainly the best Samsung OLED in years. In terms of picture quality it’s really hard to find a weak point. Black levels are perfect, as you’d expect from an OLED panel, and HDR performance impresses with brightness and color saturation. Using a QD-OLED panel delivers an image that in many scenes looks almost reference-grade. ...

Verdict:

There’s no doubt the LG G6 is outstanding in places. Thanks to the new 2nd-generation Tandem OLED panel it does something no other glossy-screen display on the market has managed so far: it suppresses reflections brilliantly while keeping perfect, untouched picture quality. Add record brightness and the panel’s unique characteristics, and the G6 can produce images that at times literally knock you...

Available screen sizes: 65”, 77”, 83”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

The Samsung S85F in the tested version with a WOLED panel is a television that should primarily be evaluated through the lens of its price. As expected from organic technology, it offers perfect, almost ideal black and infinite contrast in cinematic conditions. This feature alone will impress most buyers, especially those transitioning from any LCD television. However, it cannot be denied that in ...

Available screen sizes: 83”

Technology: WRGB OLED

Brand: SAMSUNG

Verdict:

In the case of the 83-inch version, Samsung took a different path than with the smaller diagonals and opted for the Tandem WOLED panel produced by LG Display. This move initially raised questions, but in practice, it turned out to be a bullseye. We have here an exceptionally successful mix: absolutely reference black, excellent brightness allowing for enjoyment of HDR content even during the day, ...

Verdict:

LG B5 is truly a great OLED television that shows you don't need to spend a fortune for very good quality. It offers deep blacks typical of organic panels, excellent color reproduction—especially after calibration—and enjoyable HDR movie watching experiences. All of this makes evening viewings capable of delivering cinematic emotions without reaching for significantly more expensive screens. The f...
