The two most anticipated TV models from Samsung's 2023 line-up, the S90C and S95C QD-OLEDs, are now shipping in the US, the UK, Germany, and many other countries.
After the launch of the first QD-OLED TVs from Samsung and Sony last year, Samsung is this year expanding its portfolio to include two ranges, S90C and S95C, which will both be available in 55, 65 and for the first time 77 inches. S95C adds the external One Connect box and more powerful speakers.

S90C and S95C are now shipping in most major regions. The 77-inch versions will arrive a little later than the 55 and 65-inch versions, says Samsung. We refer to the table at the bottom for prices and dealers, but as always we expect prices to drop considerably later this year.
S90C will also be available as S94C, S93C, S92C and S91C in some countries – it is the same TV.

2023 QD-OLED panel?
Samsung Display, the panel maker, has said that the 2023 QD-OLED panel is more energy efficient and delivers higher brightness.
We have heard from industry sources that while Samsung Electronics' S95C is equipped with the 2023 panel, some S90C samples may still use the 2022 panel at launch.
However, this situation should be short-lived. Samsung Display informs FlatpanelsHD that the entire QD-OLED production line was switched to the 2023 panel for both TV and monitor panels in December 2022.
Samsung will also soon launch new LCD TV models, branded "Neo QLED" and "QLED".
