Samsung 83" S85H OLED 4K Smart TV vs LG G5 OLED evo 77" TV

The LG G5 is the better gaming and movie TV: 165Hz, 0.1ms response, VRR, G-Sync, FreeSync, Dolby Vision and a flush wall mount. The Samsung S85H is the bigger screen at 83 inches and runs Tizen, which some households prefer. Owners rate the Samsung higher (4.8 from 133 ratings vs 4.5 from 55), but the LG's five-year panel warranty and brighter evo panel make it the safer long-term buy.

  • Choose the Samsung S85H if you want the largest picture in this pair, prefer Tizen and its built-in Samsung TV Plus channels, and mostly watch movies and shows rather than game.
  • Choose the LG G5 if you game, want Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and value the flush wall mount and five-year panel warranty.

Questions and answers

Which is better for gaming?
The LG G5. It has a 165Hz max refresh rate, 0.1ms response time, VRR, G-Sync and FreeSync. The Samsung S85H is built more for movies and streaming.
Which has the better picture for movies?
The LG G5 supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, which most streaming services use. The Samsung is larger, so it feels more cinematic from farther back, but it lacks Dolby Vision.
Is the Samsung worth stepping up to for the bigger screen?
If you sit far from the TV and want the biggest picture, yes. The 83-inch Samsung is noticeably larger than the 77-inch LG. If you game or want Dolby Vision, stay with the LG.
Which lasts longer?
The LG G5 comes with a five-year panel warranty, which is the clearest longevity signal here. OLED panels on both can develop burn-in with static logos, so vary content on either.
Which is better in a bright room?
The LG G5. Its OLED evo panel with Brightness Booster Max is designed to hold up in bright rooms. The Samsung OLED is strong in dark rooms but dimmer overall.
Do both support wall mounting?
Yes. The LG G5 includes a One Wall Flush Mount that hangs nearly flat. The Samsung uses a standard VESA mount, which sits out farther from the wall.
