Samsung S95B Firmware 1622 3-Way Comparison OEM vs My Settings vs Calibrated - SDR, HDR, HLG, Gaming
31To start off, I recommend updating to Firmware 1622 if you're currently on 1602 or lower.
In this video, we are doing a 3-way comparison of the Samsung S95B Firmware 1622 as is with no picture settings changes, calibration, or service menu hacks versus Firmware 1622 with my recommended picture settings (below), versus my recommended picture settings plus fully calibrated. I recommend you to pause the video numerous times to see the differences in color and clarity. You will find the brightness to be similar (I will show measurements in a separate video to be linked here later).
I have my picture settings here at the bottom of the description box.
Here is the link to my video showing you how to access the Service Menu to fix many of the brightness issues: https://youtu.be/9NyJxXui0yc?si=cNyjuMUnoxwnbWh6
