We’re only a matter of days into 2024 and already – largely thanks toCES 2024, which is the world’s biggest technology showcase – I’ve seen many of2024’s best TVsalready. And whileLG’s impressive OLED T transparent demonstrationwon my heart,Samsung’s demonstration of its new top-end S95D was the one that won my head given one game-changing new feature.
At Samsung’s First Look preview event, held off-site away from theCESshowground, the Korean brand had set up an S95D next to a previous-generation model, with plenty of bright lighting surrounding both sets. I thought the setup seemed genuine, able to show reflections catching equally in both sets. But in the S95D those reflections are far more diffuse thanks to OLED Glare Free and therefore far less distracting overall.

Implementing such a technology is a fine line in gaining the benefit of this anti-reflection benefit, without wildly affecting the overall image quality. After all, the S95D is aQD-OLED TVand the point of that TV tech is to deliver super-deep blacks and colours that pop well beyond what eventhe best OLED TVscan offer.
Not that you can buy one just yet: there’s no current on-sale date for the Samsung S95D, all I know is that it’ll come in 55-, 65- and 77-inch size options and, with my ‘buest guess’ head on, that it’ll be pricier than the outgoing S95C option. It’ll be worth the extra if reflections are the bane of your TV-viewing life, though, so keep your eyes peeled for its future on-sale date and price…
