Samsung has marked the arrival of its first QD OLED TV with quite the design statement. The S95B really is incredibly thin over the vast majority of its rear. Even at its thickest, it is smaller and slimmer than such processing, connection and speaker-bearing segments on other super-skinny TVs, leaving the incredible thinness of the QD-OLED panel to define the S95B’s extraordinary look.

Sony’s rival QD-OLED, the A95K, looks positively chunky by comparison. Though unlike the S95B, the Sony doesn’t bend and twist alarmingly while you are setting it up. Do not attempt to fit the QE65S95B’s heavy, centrally mounted, metal-finished pedestal stand without help.

Looking at the QE65S95B from the front, the lack of bodywork surrounding the picture is also up there with the slimmest we have seen, too.

Quantum Dot plus OLED

The big story here, of course, is the S95B’s QD-OLED panel.
