Is the Samsung S84F worth it over the S95F?

The S95F uses a brighter QD-OLED panel with better color volume. The S84F keeps the OLED blacks, anti-glare coating and 120Hz panel for less, so it makes sense if you watch in mixed light and do not need maximum brightness.

Does it support Dolby Vision?

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

Is it good for gaming?

Yes. The 120Hz panel and four HDMI ports suit consoles, and Samsung's game mode reduces input lag. Check that your console and cable support 4K at 120Hz.

Yes. It uses a 400 x 300 mm VESA mount, and a stand is included if you prefer a tabletop setup.

The TV, its stand, a remote and the power cable. HDMI cables are not included.

Is OLED burn-in a concern?

Static logos, news tickers and game HUDs left on for hours can leave faint marks over time. Vary content and use the screen-care settings to reduce the risk.

Our take on the Samsung S84F 55-inch

The Samsung S84F is a 55-inch 4K OLED TV with a 120Hz panel, four HDMI ports and Samsung's Tizen smart platform. It sits below Samsung's flagship S95F OLED line, so it uses a standard OLED panel rather than the brighter QD-OLED panel of the step-up models, but it keeps the anti-glare coating, 4K AI upscaling and full smart features. It suits movie and sports viewers who want deep blacks and wide viewing angles in a bright room, and gamers who need 120Hz. Against rivals, it trades some peak brightness for Samsung's polished interface and four HDMI inputs.
