Our Verdict
Samsung S95B OLED
Samsung S90C OLED
The Samsung S95B OLED and the Samsung S90C OLED are almost identical. Indeed, the S90C looks like a repackaged S95B but with official 4k @ 144Hz (120Hz on the 83-inch model) support, the 2023 version of their proprietary Tizen OS, and new 77" and 83" (with a WOLED panel) models alongside the existing 55" and 65" ones. The S90C is also a bit brighter than the S95B, but everything else is identical.
