2026 vs 2025 — SAMSUNG FLAGSHIP OLED
Samsung S95H vs S95F — Worth the 2026 Upgrade?
By Rick Baron · SWAT A/V · 28 years of installs · Updated 2026-05-29
★ Rick's bottom line
S95H for new flagship buyers · S95F at clearance is still phenomenal
S95H added: Art Mode (first on OLED), FloatLayer chassis, ~500-nit brightness bump (2,553 vs ~2,000 measured), 165Hz refresh, Tizen 2026. All real improvements but incremental. S95F at clearance ($2,400-2,800) is genuinely the same flagship experience for $600+ less.

MSRP $3,399
