Who it's for

Is the Samsung 83-inch S99H OLED right for you?

Buy it if
Dedicated home cinema

If you have a large or dedicated room and want the biggest premium OLED picture with the brightest panel and glare-free screen, this is built for exactly that.

Skip it if
Normal-sized living rooms

If your room cannot offer a long viewing distance, this will be too big to enjoy. A 65 or 77 inch OLED will suit the space far better.

Common questions

Before you buy

How big a room do I need for the Samsung 83 S99H?

An 83 inch screen suits rooms where you can sit roughly three and a half metres or more back, so it is best in a large or dedicated cinema space.

Does it support Dolby Vision?

No. Samsung uses HDR10+ instead of Dolby Vision, so Dolby Vision content falls back to standard HDR. Both are dynamic HDR formats.

Will it fit through my door?

An 83 inch TV is large and heavy, so check delivery access, doorways and wall strength for mounting before buying. Professional installation is worth considering.

Is an 83 inch OLED worth it over a Mini-LED?

For perfect blacks and cinema contrast, OLED is superb. A large Mini-LED goes brighter and often costs less per inch, so it depends on your room and priorities.
