\u201cAs the fastest growing OLED TV<\/a> brand2<\/a>, we understand the key priorities driving consumer decisions,\u201d said Shane Higby, Head of Home Entertainment at Samsung Electronics America. \u201cThe demand for premium picture quality, sleek and customizable designs, deep blacks, vibrant colors, and advanced gaming features continues to grow. This is exactly where Samsung stands out, and this year\u2019s OLED lineup further elevates our offerings to exceed all expectations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Premium OLED TV Performance Meets Refined Design<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The flagship S95H<\/a> introduces a new FloatLayer Design, featuring a sleek metal bezel that mounts the TV flush to the wall and creates a floating effect. This gallery-like aesthetic transforms the display into a stunning centerpiece, especially when showcasing masterpieces from Samsung Art Store<\/a>3<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Available for the first time on a Samsung OLED TV<\/a>, Samsung Art Store<\/a> offers subscribers access to more than 5,000 works from over 800 artists, including exclusive collections from the likes of MoMA, Art Institute of Chicago, Art Basel and many more. Art Store<\/a> subscriptions support our gallery, museum, and independent artist partners, ensuring that the creators and institutions behind these works benefit from every membership.<\/p>\n

And to give you a taste of what Samsung Art Store<\/a> has to offer, Art Store<\/a>\u00a0Streams features a rotating collection of 30 artworks each month, all for free. Whatever you display, every piece comes to life with stunning detail and realism thanks to Pantone\u00ae Validated ArtfulColor.<\/p>\n

Completing the sleek, customizable look, Wireless One Connect Ready4<\/a> lets you decide where you want your cords, either directly in the TV, hidden up to 30 feet away with the optional Wireless One Connect Box, or both.<\/p>\n

Pixel-Perfect Contrast with No Distracting Reflections<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The S95H<\/a> and S90H<\/a> are brighter than ever before, with OLED HDR Pro5<\/a> (S95H<\/a>) and OLED HDR+6<\/a> (S90H<\/a>) delivering bright highlights and a vibrantly detailed picture.<\/p>\n

And thanks to our Glare Free technology, you can enjoy a truly cinematic experience in any room, bright or dark. Now available on both the S95H<\/a> and S90H<\/a>, Samsung is providing even more ways to immerse you in stunning brightness, contrast and color, without distracting reflections.<\/p>\n

Plus, the 2026 Samsung OLED TV<\/a> lineup is built to win, with the S95H<\/a> and S90H<\/a> sporting our Ultimate Gaming Pack. That includes Motion Xcelerator 165Hz7<\/a> for ultra-smooth motion, along with NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible and FreeSync Premium Pro8<\/a> to minimize stutter and screen tearing. You\u2019ll get consistently beautiful visuals and responsive performance at top speeds, so your picture stays stunning throughout all the action.<\/p>\n

The S95H<\/a> and S90H<\/a> are also powered by our advanced NQ4 AI Gen3 Processor9<\/a>, delivering an exceptional, AI-enhanced 4K viewing experience. With 4K AI Upscaling Pro10<\/a>, older or lower-resolution content is transformed into stunning 4K. Auto HDR Remastering dynamically enhances brightness and contrast11<\/a>, while Color Booster Pro12<\/a> analyzes each scene to amplify colors for vibrant visuals. Additionally, AI Motion Enhancer Pro13<\/a> reduces blur and flickering during fast-moving scenes to keep you fully immersed.<\/p>\n

Finally, you can enable AI Customization Mode12 to automatically detect the type of content you\u2019re watching and adjust picture to match your preferences, whether it\u2019s bold color for sports or a more cinematic look for movies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dynamic, Realistic Audio<\/p>\n

Each model delivers multi-dimensional Dolby Atmos14<\/a> sound, enhanced by Adaptive Sound Pro for audio tailored to your room and Active Voice Amplifier Pro to amplify dialogue in noisy scenes. Object Tracking Sound+15<\/a> syncs audio with on-screen action for greater immersion. Plus, you can pair up to five Samsung sound devices with your Samsung TV \u2014 including soon to launch 2026 Q-Series Soundbars and new Music Studio speakers \u2014 using Samsung Q-Symphony16<\/a> for more immersive surround sound.<\/p>\n

A Smart Screen for Every Passion<\/p>\n

Anchoring the experience across the lineup is Samsung Vision AI Companion17<\/a>, which brings the power of conversational AI to the big screen. Using an enhanced Bixby or separate apps for Microsoft Copilot or Perplexity, you can receive answers to any question, from content recommendations to recipes and travel suggestions18<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Plus, the all-new AI Sound Controller Pro puts you in control of your audio by offering independent adjustment of voice, music and sound effects19<\/a>. And for soccer fans, the new AI Soccer Mode20<\/a> uses AI to deliver an immersive stadium experience, optimizing both picture and sound to place you in the center of the action.<\/p>\n

These features are seamlessly integrated into the Samsung One UI Tizen OS21<\/a>, upgraded in 2026 for easier access to your favorite apps and services. With up to 7 years of OS updates22<\/a>, your TV will stay current with the latest advancements.<\/p>\n
