Our take on the Samsung Class DU6950 Series Crystal 85" 4K Ultra HDR Smart LED Tizen TV
The Samsung DU6950 is a Crystal UHD 4K LED TV running the Tizen smart platform, with HDR10 support and the PurColor and Crystal Processor 4K picture pipeline. Its main draw is screen size for the money: an 85-inch 4K panel at a level where rivals are usually smaller or drop features. It lacks the mini-LED backlight, 120Hz panel and anti-glare coating of Samsung's Neo QLED sets, so contrast and motion are ordinary. It suits big-room viewers and sports or movie watchers who want a large bright picture and Samsung's app platform without paying for premium backlighting.
- Very large 85-inch 4K screen

Questions and answers
- Does the DU6950 have local dimming?
- No. It is an edge-lit LED TV without local dimming, so black levels are its weakest point compared with mini-LED sets.
- Is it good for gaming?
- It supports 4K gaming and Auto Game Mode, but the 60Hz panel and lack of HDMI 2.1 features limit it for high-frame-rate console play.
- Does it support Dolby Vision?
- No. It handles HDR10 and HLG only, so Dolby Vision content plays in standard HDR10.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, a stand, a remote and power cable. A wall mount and HDMI cables are not included.
- How does it compare with Samsung's Neo QLED sets?
- Neo QLED models add mini-LED local dimming, higher brightness, 120Hz panels and better anti-glare. The DU6950 trades those for a much larger screen.
- Is 85 inches too big for a normal room?
- It needs a wide wall and roughly 9 to 12 feet of viewing distance for comfortable 4K viewing.
