Is the S85H worth it over Samsung's S95 OLED?

The S95 uses a QD-OLED panel that is noticeably brighter and more colorful. The S85H costs less and still gives true OLED blacks. If your room is dark, the S85H covers the basics well.

Does it support Dolby Vision?

No. It supports HDR10, HLG and HDR10+, but not Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision content plays in HDR10 instead.

Is a 77-inch OLED good for gaming?

Yes. It has a low-latency game mode and supports variable refresh rate. The OLED panel gives fast pixel response, though static HUD elements can dim over long sessions.

Will static logos burn in?

OLED can suffer image retention with repeated static content. The TV runs pixel-shifting and logo dimming to reduce the risk, but varied content is safer.

The TV, its stand, a remote, and the power cable. Check the listing for the exact accessories included.

Does it need a soundbar?

The built-in speakers are fine for everyday viewing but thin for a big room. Most owners pair a screen this size with a soundbar or AV receiver.

Our take on the Samsung 77" OLED 4K Smart TV (QN77S85HAEXZC)

The Samsung S85H is a 77-inch OLED 4K smart TV, the largest size in Samsung's entry OLED line. OLED panels light each pixel on its own, so blacks are true black and contrast is near-infinite, which is the main reason people choose it over Samsung's own Neo QLED sets. It runs Tizen with the usual streaming apps and Samsung's gaming features. It suits movie and console gamers who want a big OLED screen and don't need the brighter, more expensive S95 series.
