Samsung S84F 77"

78 out of 100 high confidence 147 reviews

The Samsung OLED TV receives overwhelmingly positive praise for its picture quality, deep blacks, vibrant colors, and 120Hz refresh rate, making it excellent for gaming and movies. However, the Smart Tizen OS and remote navigation are widely criticized as sluggish and unintuitive, particularly for switching inputs and adjusting settings. Many users recommend pairing it with a soundbar for better audio and note that peak brightness could be higher in very bright rooms. Despite these software and audio complaints, most owners feel the stunning display justifies the price.

Pros
  • Excellent picture quality and colors
  • Deep blacks and vibrant colors
  • 120Hz refresh rate for smooth gaming
  • Good value for money
  • Easy setup and smart features
Cons
  • Slow and unintuitive Tizen OS
  • Difficult input switching
  • Cumbersome menu navigation
  • Mediocre built-in speakers
  • Glare in bright rooms
