Our take on the Samsung Class S85D Series 55" 4K Ultra HDR Smart OLED Tizen TV
The Samsung S85D is a 55-inch 4K OLED TV running Samsung's Tizen smart platform with HDR10 support. OLED panels deliver per-pixel light control, so blacks are true black and contrast is far deeper than on comparably sized LED sets. It sits below Samsung's brighter QD-OLED S90D line, so it suits dark-room movie watchers more than sunlit living rooms. It is a solid pick for people who want Samsung's smart features and OLED contrast without stepping up to the flagship panel.
- OLED panel gives true blacks and strong contrast
- Tizen smart platform with the major streaming apps built in

Questions and answers
- Is the S85D a QD-OLED?
- No. The S85D uses a standard OLED panel. Samsung's QD-OLED technology is in the S90D and higher models, which are brighter.
- Does it support HDR10+?
- The listed spec is HDR10 support. Check the set's spec sheet for HDR10+ before relying on it for that format.
- Is it good for bright rooms?
- It is better suited to darker rooms. OLED brightness is lower than on bright LED and QD-OLED rivals, so reflections and daylight can wash out the picture.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand, a remote and power cable are the standard contents. Confirm the exact bundle with the seller.
- How does it compare with the S90D?
- The S90D uses a QD-OLED panel with higher brightness and richer color volume. The S85D trades some of that for a lower tier in Samsung's OLED lineup.
