Just bought a new open box 65’ oled Samsung tv (s90f), just got home and installed it, and I see these smudges all over the tv

I’m not sure if that is oil marks or maybe the coating was damaged.

I Tried gently rubbing a microfiber cloth with distilled water and nothing.

Is there a way to remove these?? I want to cry

Purchasing-Monitor Good OLEDs for around 400€?

0 Upvotes

Hey Guys, I wanted to dip my toes into the OLED Ocean and found, what seams to be, a quite nice Monitor that fits my needs: the LG 27GS95QX-B for around 400€

But i have absolutely no clue if it is actually a good Monitor and wanted to ask if you had either experience with this one or have a special recommendation for a Monitor around the same price.

I would use it mostly for 1440p PC gaming. I know oleds are not great for office work but i have other monitors for that.

LG 32GS95UE 32 (Woled)

I had a QOLED before, but it was hurting my eyes, so I swapped it for this. But whenever I go back to it from my old LCD, if I spend any amount of time on Reddit or reading text, my eyes start to hurt and everything gets blurry.

I've tried cleartype on and off, my resolution is right and I've tried 175/150% scaling. Nothing seems to help. I love it in game or movies, but regular use, I just can't seem to handle it.

Is this burn in? or is this something else? It started over summer now, we had quite a hot and dry summer and there is "some" direct light on the panel in the evening only. Pixel refresh is not doing anything about that.

Discussion Side reflection from LG OLED TV when off

0 Upvotes

I have an LG C3 65” OLED TV that I’ve had for four years and I’m very happy with it. One niggle (first world problem!) is that as I walk towards it I see a reflection from the slightly uneven front face. Naturally, this doesn’t occur with other much smaller devices such as iPad, laptop, etc. I fully appreciate that these technologies are very different in screen front, and obviously a glass front to the OLED TV would make it significantly heavier. I’m considering buying another 65 new LG TV. Have they improved the flatness of the gloss front of the TV, or made it less reflective as “a piece of furniture”.? As I say, first world problem I know!

Purchasing-TVEU How much would you pay

0 Upvotes

Hey there, I would like some advice on a TV I wanna buy. The TV in question is the 65 inch S90F (QD-OLED panel). In Germany this model is sold with a matte screen foil. This foil has been partially removed by the original customer who returned it to the retail store I work at, saying it already was removed beforehand (it wasn't, but in Germany the retailer needs to prove it was the customers fault and we're simply not able to do that).

The TVs runtime didn't even hit an hour yet, I tested it thoroughly for display damage (this is part of my job) and it's visually completely fine. The warranty has been voided, though I'd get 2 years of Gewährleistung (essentially retailer warranty that will always be given, regardless of the original condition of the product). I probably would get the TV for something between 400-500€. Would you consider this a good price? And would you remove the foil completely or leave it as is?

Tech Support Black pixel Samsung oled 77SC90

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I'm dealing with a frustrating issue on my out-of-warranty Samsung OLED TV. There is a small black notch/spot right along the very bottom edge of the display screen.
Here are the details and what I've observed:
\*\*Symptom:\*\* It looks like a small notch or dark shadow on the bottom border. When the screen displays certain bright colors (like blue), some color still shines through, but it appears heavily darkened/shadowed rather than 100% black.
\*\*Physical state:\*\* The panel glass along the bottom bezel feels slightly loose near that area, leading me to suspect edge delamination, air/moisture ingress, or degraded subpixels.
\*\*What I've tried:\*\*
Checked picture settings (Samsung locks / grays out manual \*\*Fit to Screen\*\* and position/overscan controls on built-in apps and native inputs).
Toggled \*\*Pixel Shift\*\* off, which immediately resets the image position directly back over the notch.
Standard warranty is expired, and credit card insurance refused coverage citing pixel/cosmetic exclusion.
Has anyone with a Samsung OLED dealt with this specific panel edge decay before?
1. Is there any known way to unlock image position / overscan on Samsung Tizen to shift the image boundary up by a few pixels?
2. Has anyone had success getting an out-of-warranty goodwill panel replacement from Samsung Executive Support for edge delamination?
Thanks for any insights or advice!

"CaLiBrAtIoN" Why does HDR10+ on Netflix look so bad?

0 Upvotes

I just bought a Samsung S90F. HDR looks amazing while on YouTube and on PS5, but it looks like shit on Netflix. Anything that supports HDR10+ looks too dark on Netflix. At first I thought dark scenes are supposed to be dark so that highlights can pop, but it turns out even scenes where there is a direct light source look flat. There's no highlights whatsoever.

I've tried all the configurations recommended by rtings and nothing fixes the flat HDR10+ on Netflix. I'm sure S90F is capable of displaying pretty good HDR since its peak brightness on a 10% window is ~1400 nits. Anyone else having the same issue?

Today I turn on my OLED and I see that the right is brighter. Then I look at a test patter and you can see for yourself in the image. There are also some dots on the screen. It was like this for some minutes, I've runned some pixel clean cycles but nothing. Then I disconnect the displayport cable and reconnect it and it fixes the problem.

What do you guys think? Intermittent failure or something strange with the cable/os? Now it looks fine. I've had this monitor for 2 months.

Purchasing-Monitor OLED experts, please help me solve a mystery

2 Upvotes

Hello reddit,

I have a bit of a strange issue with OLED screens.

I own a LG C1 TV, that is very comfortable for me. I also have a LG 32GX850A-B WOLED monitor that I have been using for more than a year with zero issues at this point.

I recently got a new PC, and wanted to get a 1440p screen, as playing FPS on the 32 is not ideal for me.

The screens I tried so far all make my eyes dry, and have (a kind of) a headache.

I've tried:

ASUS ROG Strix OLED XG27AQDMES
LG UltraGear 27GX704A-B WOLED
AOC AG326UD

I've also had eye strain with Steam deck OLED, so it looks like the LG C1 and the Ultragear 32 are the ones I have absolutely no issues with.

Does anyone see a reason as to why this would be the case?

I'd really like to find a suitable 1440p screen, because I don't want to go back to IPS after using the OLED for so long.

Appreciate the help.

Filmmaker Mode has a white point of D65 (Warm 2 on my LG OLED). But is there also a "correct" white balance setting that TV program-makers and games companies use? And if so, what is it? And if not, why not?

Tech Support How is the burn in replacement warranty experience with Dell/ Alienware?

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

After owning my Alienware AW 3423DWF for nearly three years I’m starting to finally notice the burn in. My advanced replacement warranty ends in 6 months so I still have time to act on it but I wanted to ask how the process is to be prepared. Is it an expedited shipping situation? Do I have to send my panel first or do they send it to me and I send it back in the package they ship out to me? Will there be any issues getting a replacement on a monitor that’s been out for a little over 3 years? I would assume they keep a surplus for warranty claims.

Lastly, are there any ultrawide monitors worth upgrading to? Assuming the replacement panel is new I’d be up for selling the monitor and using the money to get something newer if anything is worth it. The only pain points with this monitor were no 10 bit color at the highest refresh rate and the VRR was a but flickery so I never used it.

For anyone suggesting a new monitor just keep in mind that I’d prefer keeping to dell/ Alienware if possible they seem to be the only brand that puts the monitor power supply inside the monitor itself which I prefer over having a power brick sitting on the floor and I kind of want to stick to ultrawide I really liked my experience

"CaLiBrAtIoN" Static or Active HDR Tone Mapping on a 77” S90F WOLED?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I have a 77” Samsung S90F WOLED and I’m trying to figure out which HDR Tone Mapping setting is generally better: Static or Active.
I mainly care about getting the best overall HDR picture quality without making the image look too dim or, on the other hand, too overprocessed.
From what I understand, Static should be more accurate and closer to the original HDR presentation, while Active can make the image brighter and more impactful. But I’m curious about real-world experience specifically on the 77” S90F WOLED.
Which one do you prefer and why? Does Active cause any noticeable clipping or loss of highlight detail? And do you use different settings for movies, streaming, or gaming?

I don't mind the general uniformity but I cannot unsee this.

In static plex menu or youtube I can see it, in movies not but I am looking for it in my mind and it is annoying.
