Samsung S95H OLED TV Review (2026)
Samsung’s S95H is a strong flagship OLED, with slightly better picture quality and AI processing than the S95F it replaces. But in 2026, newer RGB and art TVs offer serious competition at similar prices, so OLED is no longer an automatic choice for the best picture or value.
The S95H keeps the S95F’s anti-glare technology and adds a recessed silver frame. It no longer includes Samsung’s One Connect box, making the set thicker at 1.04 inches, though the reviewer found direct connections simpler; the box can be bought separately. It has four HDMI ports, including support for gaming at 165 Hz, Wi-Fi 6E and a pared-back remote, while its Tizen interface remains awkward to navigate.
In short
- The S95H improves on the S95F in picture quality and processing.
- RGB and art TVs make the OLED choice less obvious.
- The One Connect box is optional, and the TV is thicker without it.
Steelman: both sides, in good faith
The strongest fair case each way — we don't pick a winner.
The case for
The S95H makes a strong case as a flagship OLED: it improves picture quality and processing over its predecessor, keeps effective anti-glare technology and supports gaming up to 165 Hz. For buyers who value OLED’s performance and prefer straightforward direct connections, the absent One Connect box may be a practical simplification, while its frame and design add polish.
The case against
A premium television should justify its price against the best alternatives, and newer RGB and art TVs now compete at similar prices. The S95H’s gains over the S95F may not be enough to make it the best picture or value choice, while the thicker set, separately sold One Connect box and awkward Tizen interface may count against it.
Explained simply
OLED is a type of screen in which each pixel produces its own light, allowing very dark blacks and strong contrast. Samsung’s S95 series is its premium OLED television range, and the S95H follows the S95F.
Samsung competes with other television makers on picture quality, gaming features and price. Newer screen designs, including RGB televisions, use different ways to produce colour, while some televisions are designed to display artwork when not in use.
The choice matters because televisions are a substantial purchase, and the best option depends on more than picture quality alone. Screen glare, connections, software and gaming support can also affect how well a television suits someone’s home.
