The Samsung S95C, which is the company's latest OLED TV, uses a QD-OLED panel from Samsung Display that was announced yesterday. It features a 4K QD-OLED screen with up to a 144Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and up to 2,000 nits peak brightness. The South Korean firm is using the new HyperEfficient EL material (applied to the blue light emitting layer) and IntelliSense AI to improve the panel's brightness.
