With its successor now released, many are wondering if the S95B is worth it. The answer is a concrete yes, we going to break down exactly why.

The S95B was released just two years ago and garnered mass popularity and rave reviews. It was actually Samsung’s return to OLED TV manufacturing, having not released any in just under a decade. It’s safe to say it was worth the wait, being easily one of the best gaming TVs, for both the Xbox Series X and PS5.

Well, there is now a new and improved version, the S95C, though the S95D release date is also imminent. This has led many to wonder whether the S95B is still worth it.

We reckon it definitely is, and are breaking down exactly why below.

As you can see this is a premium spec TV. Its OLED display offers near-limitless contrast with over 8 million pixels each self-illuminating and creating its crisp 4K display.

It’s also a smart TV, in the true sense of the word. The S95B has 20 neural networks each powered by AI which optimises and enhances your viewing experience. This includes excellent and immersive 4K upscaling, some of the best we have seen on a TV.

There are many other strengths this TV possess in both display, design and sound quality but the truth is these strengths are either held or improved upon by the S95C. The catch, however, is price.

Whilst the improvements made to the S95C are significant, they aren’t groundbreaking, and what’s more, it’s release has driven down the price of its predecessor.

In fact, the S95B is, perhaps, now more worth it than ever, with a huge new deal knocking over $1000 of it usual price. All of this whilst its technology display and design are far from outdated. You can purchase one directly from Samsung using the link above.
