Samsung's brightest, most bright-room-friendly OLED and TechRadar's 2025 TV of the Year — provided you don't need Dolby Vision.

Best for
Buyers who want the best all-round OLED picture in a room with some light: exceptional brightness, the best matte anti-glare screen on the market, vivid wide color, and a full 165Hz gaming suite.
Avoid if
You rely on Dolby Vision content, want the most accurate letterbox-black detail, or want to spend less — the LG C5 costs far less, and mini-LEDs like the Sony Bravia 9 go even brighter.

How we know
High confidenceLast checkedThe S95F is Samsung's 2025 flagship QD-OLED and was named TechRadar's TV of the Year and a CNET Editors' Choice. Measured HDR peak brightness lands around 2,000–2,400 nits depending on size — far brighter than typical OLEDs — and TechRadar recorded 100% UHDA-P3 color coverage, a first in their testing. Its second-gen OLED Glare Free 2.0 matte screen is widely judged the best anti-glare system available, making it the standout OLED for bright rooms, while preserving deeper blacks than the 2024 S95D. Gaming is excellent: four HDMI 2.1 ports, up to 165Hz, VRR and FreeSync Premium Pro. The main trade-offs are the lack of Dolby Vision and a premium price.
