This Micro RGB TV rivals pricier OLED models - and I'd recommend it, especially on sale

'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards.

I recently got to go hands-on with the all-new Samsung R95H at the ZDNET testing lab in Louisville, and I was impressed with the bold, bright colors and deep, inky blacks it produced. With a picture quality that has the potential to rival, or even surpass, OLED models, the R95H is a worthy upgrade to any home theater or living room. And right now at Best Buy, you can save up to $1,000 on one, with the 85-inch version offering the highest discount.

Also: Samsung OLED vs. QLED vs. Micro RGB

The new Micro RGB panel uses much smaller LEDs that include red, green, and blue colors to create up to 100% of the BT.2020 color spectrum. This means you'll get an incredible image with fine details and sharp contrast, similar to what you'll find in a high-end OLED model.

In both standard and high definition testing, color accuracy was fairly consistent, which means you'll spend less time recalibrating your picture settings and more time enjoying your favorite content. The matte display also helps to cut annoying glare and reflections that can distract you and ruin your visibility -- especially at odd viewing angles.
