Hey all, looking for the best Samsung 65" OLED TV deals this Black Friday. Specifically interested in the S90C or S95C models. Seeing lots of ads, but hoping for real-world insights. Budget is around $1800. Anyone spotted any killer deals yet?

Regarding what #5 said about "Skip pro install! S95C back panel removal's tricky;..."

  • I totally feel that frustration. Im super happy with my display and honestly have zero complaints about how it works, but the actual DIY setup part is such a headache. Honestly it reminds me of when I was messing with my Samsung HW-Q990C Soundbar last summer and everything just went wrong.
  • lost the mounting brackets twice
  • accidentally scuffed the baseboard
  • had to rearrange the whole cabinet because the power cord wouldnt reach I was basically fuming for three hours straight while the kids were trying to watch cartoons. It turned into this whole thing where I had to go to the hardware store twice in one afternoon just for tiny parts. My garage is still a mess from that project and I still havent found those original screws. Anyway lol sorry kinda went off topic there.

@Reply #6 - good point! Honestly setting these thin TVs up is such a nightmare. This thread basically nails the dilemma... you get the amazing colors Blake mentioned but then you gotta deal with the burn-in stress and those mounting disasters you and Mason talked about. I really wanted to love my Samsung S90C 65-inch OLED but unfortunately I have had issues with the software lagging like crazy lately. It is not as good as expected for the price tag tbh. Kinda disappointing when you just want to watch a movie and the menus stutter. Quick tips:

  • Get a protection plan. Seriously. These panels feel way too fragile to risk $1800 without one.
  • Skip the built-in apps and use a dedicated 4K streaming stick instead to avoid the glitchy Samsung OS. It is a beautiful screen but the premium experience feels a bit half-baked sometimes... just be super careful when you are unboxing it so you dont bend the screen.

No way, I literally just dealt with this yesterday. Small world.

I got the 65" S90C last year. Loving it! Paid around $1600. Colors are amazing for Forza. No regrets!

Before you pull the trigger, be careful with OLED burn-in. Consider a Sony A95K; its heatsink tech might offer better long-term reliability. I've seen them around $2000.

Consider burn-in warranties. OLED screens + automotive heat... risky combo, even at $1800.

Before splurging, check open-box deals at Best Buy; might save hundreds. Be careful of 'too good to be true' prices; verify the seller's legitimacy first!

Skip pro install! S95C back panel removal's tricky; I had issues, not as good as expected. DIY carefully.
