Samsung S95C is worst than debris, running on 3090ti, 2080ti, 4080 and ps5 and xbox
6I have tried the following troubleshooting steps without success:
Updating the firmware.
Performing a factory reset.
Trying different ports and HDMI cables. I used Audioquest pearl 48 10ft and tried monoprice 48 and belkin 48 all 6-10ft cables
Using different devices
The TV seems to work for a few weeks after each of these steps, but then it starts to black out and crash. This has happened with my third S95C TV.
DROP OUTS tested at
HDR: 4K144Hz, 4K120Hz, and 2K120Hz
SDR: 4K144Hz, 4K120Hz, and 2K120Hz
I have witnessed the issues with dropouts on the Samsung S95C OLED TV. The image on the screen freezes or flashes, and it can occur at any time, but it seems to be more common when the TV is set to a high refresh rate, such as 4K144Hz, 4K120Hz, or 2K120Hz. I have also experienced the dropouts more frequently with the new firmware update 1220.9.
Samsung has not acknowledged the issue, and they blamed the problems on my PS5, Xbox, and PC. However, I have no issues with my LG C2 regardless of the hardware devices.
I would strongly advise against buying a Samsung TV if you are a gamer or someone who watches a lot of high-framerate content. I have experienced the dropouts myself, and it is very frustrating. I would recommend buying a Sony or LG TV instead.
