For those who don't want to risk the panel for more brightness, I'll share settings without the 2000 nits hack, too. Also, for movies and motion outside of game mode. Doing this hack is not necessary to enjoy the TV, as you can see in this video, even when the brightness and color difference are huge, they don't look that far away from each other. That's because HDR is an absolute. When the displays are closer to accuracy, they should be closer to each other.

Thank you very much! You are doing Gods work, my man! The ABL was reset during an firmware update (Thank you Samsung!) and this seems to be the only way to "get in" since Samsung blocked the original codes to the service menu. I paid for this TV and i will decide if I like the ABL to be turned off. Alright, Samsung?
I will say, there’s raised blacks on the QDOLED, but for me and my room during the daytime, it’s vastly preferred over the mirror some of these other TVs can be.
yes and this is why black frame is gone because everyone cares too much about the many nits. love my c1 and i will keep it for a long time. i care more about motion. if you are used to this 120 with black frame you want more otherwise only when samsung comes 2000 nits and with black frame i will buy it immediately but not going to happen man. too bad. but miss your videos on how you made the c1 better and better. but every video that comes i watch man love what you do keep going man
You're right. QDOLED would be awesome for C1 like BFI. With the 3rd gen QDOLED panels hitting 3k nits we could theoretically get 120bfi bright enough and sub 1ms. Unless I'm missing something (ignoringsome limitationsthat I'mnot awareof), 3000 nits on a 10% window could be use for a 10% duty cycle to improve the motion reducing the persistence to 10% (based on the BlurBustersLaw), which is 0.8ms at 120fps and still get 300 nits full screen (Maximum possible based on the Talbot-Plateau's Law)

What is the 10% brightness of the 2000nit mod? Is there any difference if I did the mod on standard s90c or a converted s90c to an s95c? Like ABL changes etc.
10% brightness of the 2000 nits mod is about 1330 nits, so that's not significantly different. Note that brightness on larger windows is decreased over stock with the 2000 nit mod as a side effect of using HM pat peak w. of 185 to correct PQ EOTF tracking. There is a massive difference if you do this on a standard S90C without a mod and then it requires different HM peak values. I'd recommend only to do such mods when you've converted an S90C to an S95C or on an actual S95C (they're the same). ABL doesn't change
Where are you getting that info from? Did you measure it yourself? I watched a Spanish speaking channel, AVpassion, that said peak was 2000 below 10% and 310 nits full screen using ANA PEAK1 and 2 1023. He didn't show any EOTF tracking settings but I assumed accuracy shouldn't affect how brigh the TV gets and a 100% white should still get 310 nits.
There could be a small variation from panel to panel. I don't have a meter but the Lux Light Meter app measurements are so high they don't make sense vs my C1
Probably a really dumb question, but does the 1500/2000 nit mod (depending on the Generation of panel) affect SDR in any way ? Or have downsides to that? Like if I plug in a 360 and play it with SDR, it'll still look fine on it colors/brightness wise as it normally would for that content post-brightness mod, right?
That's a fair question, I don't know yet if the ANA PEAK1 and 2 have an impact on SDR, what I know is that the EOTF settings to correct the tracking are only for HDR
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 only affects 1-9% window highlights in hdr, just make sure you lower the contrast a few notches to make the EOTF match a bit better
you can disable DSC by setting game mode to 9 rather than 12 in the service menu (which emulates the game mode of the S95B) and then using CRU to extend the VRR range back to 144 Hz. Then you get 144 Hz VRR and DSC disabled (without VRR this doesn't work)
The S95C QDOLED looks the closest to a Plasma mainly because of the fantastic screen uniformity. However, there's still a purity I feel on the Plasma and my camera pick that up very easily, that's why the Kuro looks the best on camera regardless of accuracy
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 Yes it's sad that after all of the resourceful and innovative methods you've come up with over the years to squeeze every drop out of your C1 it still never achieved the convincing and pleasing look that you get from your other displays. (I say this as a guy with a CX still new in its box unopened for some years now 😬😅) Anyway, so far I've gathered that the reason why plasmas and CRT's look so convincing and pleasing to our eyes despite usually being less accurate is because they emit higher quality light (rated as "CRI" score - Colour Rendering Index). I'm too tired to expand further right now but there's a YT channel called "The Boss (No Competition)" and in some of his videos he measures the light quality output by his Kuro 500M and compares it against some OLED's, LCD's and even a CRT.

One question. I have the S95C in 65 inches and I use the Anapeak 1023 mod. But my problem is this. When I use HM Pat Peak W @ 190 in PC Mode, my clipping point in test patterns goes way up to 3500 nits. If I set it to 133, the clipping points goes slightly above 2050 nits and the picture gets more pop. What do testpatterns show with you guys? It cant be correct, with the 190 setting, that my S95C tonemaps up to 3500 nits.
Windows HDR Calibration doesn't show the clipping point correctly until you load certain games, in which the TV actually uses HGIG. Cyberpunk 2077 is an example. Just run it, then alt tab out of it and then look at the clipping point. It should be near 2000 nits. Also, don't use HM Pat Peak W at 190 because you'll drop the brightness on larger areas (which is also noticable in games). use 185 or use ANA PEAK 875 with HM Pat Peak W of 169 for 1750 nits peak brightness with no drop in full field brightness. HM Pat Peak btw controls filmmaker mode PQ EOTF, not game mode. HM pat peak w. plus controls game mode (which should be 185 for ANA PEAK 1023 and 157 for ANA PEAK 875)
@@Tomogeny Could you please provide all 4 options for ANA PEAK 875? There are 2 more options HM Con Peak W. and Peak W. what are the values for these two ? :) Thanks in advance

What do you think about the Samsung Monitor 3rd Gen panels ? I am looking at the alienware 32 inch qd oled but I think it has a peak 10% brightness of 450 and 1% 980.
Monitors don't have the same brightness as TVs, they usually do similar or better full screen but peak is a lot less. I paid 760usd for this 55' S95C, there's no Monitor that can come close to that because they don't get these huge discounts. A bigger screen size will give you a much better experience
For HDR Auto is BT2020 and Native seems to have higher color saturation because the calibration or lack there of is different making less saturated colors appear more saturated that what they're supposed to, while also having a different direction in hue like the difference that happens when targeting a different color space
You could make a comparison between the c1 and a qd oled with the blue light filter turned on on the c1. Yeah no doubt the qd oleds are still superior color wise but the blue light is too strong on woleds compared to qd oleds imo and that washes out the colors apart from the white subpixel.
Just a small reminder for everyone that's willing to mess with the service menu: You will not be able to file a warranty claim if anything bricks your TV while using the service menu. And be warned, just turning on or off a seemingly simple option can permanently disable either HDMI ports, functionalities or the whole motherboard/panel can be bricked beyond fixable.
I'm trying to learn and show what each of the options do so that doesn't happen. Fear comes from not knowing enough. About the warranty, if you do a reset the only trace remaining is the reset, they won't know anything else if you bring everything back to default.
one word of caution regarding samsung warranty, at least my 1 experience, i had s95b die on me after 3 months. error was that the tv power cycled showing a second of single line of pixels. i saw that error on yt videos so i thought its a common thing. they denied my warranty on claims that the the panel was physically damaged even though i sent them a perfectly undamaged tv aside from that error. i did use the service menu, but that never came up. i got the s95d now, but im a bit worried to do it again.
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 i never had issues before with any of my samsung products, so imagine my suprise... guess it was damaged by them or in shipping but either way i got bent over for 2000e. im not in the US so they have some domestic repair shop authorized to do the work for samsung here. after that i talked to official samsung employee to make a complaint but even he was very rude. they did offer to replace the panel at my expense, at price more than the tv could be found at discount.
Find “Cal data restore” i think it’s in SVC - other settings. Remove any USB drive if it’s connected to TV. (Not necessary but a precaution) Click it and press confirm OK. Go back, Advanced will show up. Highlight it. Hold volume Up button on smart remote for 7 seconds or press 0098 with normal remote.
Actually it didn't work for me, I could never find the cal data restore but I used another method to get into the service menu , who was info + factory and then the advanced option appears , thanks for the heads up

@@taxi1975 "color saturation in bright scenes isnt good." yeah because WOLED washes out colour with the white OLED lol, another reason why QDOLED is undisputed when it comes to colour luminosity and another cool thing is that they have perfect panel uniformity
Yeah, the more videos and comparations i see, it just reminds me how good LG is. I will definitely go for G4 and 5year panel guarantee. There's reson why lg and sony are at top of the game.
I have C3 + S90C side by side for more than a week now. Prior to these had the 65 C1 for a year and a half. The colors on the samsung are really saturted, just like samsungs smartphones. Really-really nice. And the sdr brightness is much better. Like it says +100 nits over the LG-s 400. I am completly sold on QD-OLED. I dont understand people who prefer LG anymore. The hype is real!
I already checked out the C4 one, specifically the 42 inch variant because it's the cheapest oled panel i can get, tho I know the QD OLED is far more superior, ig i prefer value for money
Man I worry about videos like this that Samsung might see it then clamp down on the service menu. Do you have to be so explicit lol.

You could make a comparison between the c1 and a qd oled with the blue light filter turned on on the c1. Yeah no doubt the qd oleds are still superior color wise but the blue light is too strong on woleds compared to qd oleds imo and that washes out the colors apart from the white subpixel.
The camera exaggerates that, It doesn't look like that in person. I'll change my camera settings in real time in another video to show that
@plasmatvforgaming9648 ok
Just a small reminder for everyone that's willing to mess with the service menu:
You will not be able to file a warranty claim if anything bricks your TV while using the service menu. And be warned, just turning on or off a seemingly simple option can permanently disable either HDMI ports, functionalities or the whole motherboard/panel can be bricked beyond fixable.
I'm trying to learn and show what each of the options do so that doesn't happen. Fear comes from not knowing enough. About the warranty, if you do a reset the only trace remaining is the reset, they won't know anything else if you bring everything back to default.
one word of caution regarding samsung warranty, at least my 1 experience, i had s95b die on me after 3 months. error was that the tv power cycled showing a second of single line of pixels. i saw that error on yt videos so i thought its a common thing. they denied my warranty on claims that the the panel was physically damaged even though i sent them a perfectly undamaged tv aside from that error. i did use the service menu, but that never came up. i got the s95d now, but im a bit worried to do it again.
That's messed up. If the panel was not physically damaged, how can they say otherwise
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 i never had issues before with any of my samsung products, so imagine my suprise... guess it was damaged by them or in shipping but either way i got bent over for 2000e. im not in the US so they have some domestic repair shop authorized to do the work for samsung here. after that i talked to official samsung employee to make a complaint but even he was very rude. they did offer to replace the panel at my expense, at price more than the tv could be found at discount.
Can u do Sony a95L next
If Sony sends it to me, I'd like to
The A95L was almost 3x the price I paid for the S95C having the same panel
With Sony you can't turn off the dimming or get more brightness on the service menu
Do you know why the advanced option doesn't appear in the service menu? It only goes up to ADC/WB. How can I activate it?
Find “Cal data restore” i think it’s in SVC - other settings. Remove any USB drive if it’s connected to TV. (Not necessary but a precaution) Click it and press confirm OK. Go back, Advanced will show up. Highlight it. Hold volume Up button on smart remote for 7 seconds or press 0098 with normal remote.
Thanks for helping! I didn't know that
@ I’m in Europe so maybe things are different in US but I’m also entering in Service menu with normal Samsung remote Info+Menu+Mute+Power
@ Thanks for great content and keep fighting for Motion Clarity
Actually it didn't work for me, I could never find the cal data restore but I used another method to get into the service menu , who was info + factory and then the advanced option appears , thanks for the heads up
My S95D is very bright. But i am curious as to how bright i can make it
3000 nits.u need service remote
From 1600 to 3000 nits, almost 2x!
@plasmatvforgaming9648 good god. That would be insanity 😆
@@ehenningsen actually it's up to 3100 nits
Where can I find the hack to the s95d service menu
how come you've not chosen to compare it to LG G4? Serious question
He probably doesn't have it
Because I don't have a G4. It cost almost 3x what I paid for this S95C
Not everyone is rich
The g4 is garbage, horribble banding, Magenta tint, vertical line in the middle, Always on light sharpening and contrast enhancement, noise in dark areas, color saturation in bright scenes isnt good.
Keeping my qn90b as long as ces 2025 doesnt present any good Qdoled from Samsung (2000nits)
@@taxi1975 "color saturation in bright scenes isnt good." yeah because WOLED washes out colour with the white OLED lol, another reason why QDOLED is undisputed when it comes to colour luminosity and another cool thing is that they have perfect panel uniformity
my lg c2 look so good in sdr with pc :3 nice for my ayes also ! and temp of my room
Yeah, the more videos and comparations i see, it just reminds me how good LG is. I will definitely go for G4 and 5year panel guarantee. There's reson why lg and sony are at top of the game.
The G4 is a very solid TV
I have C3 + S90C side by side for more than a week now. Prior to these had the 65 C1 for a year and a half. The colors on the samsung are really saturted, just like samsungs smartphones. Really-really nice. And the sdr brightness is much better. Like it says +100 nits over the LG-s 400.
I am completly sold on QD-OLED. I dont understand people who prefer LG anymore. The hype is real!
but the s95c double the price of c4 lg in my country
How about the S90C? At this point the S90C should have the same 2nd gen QDOLED panel
I already checked out the C4 one, specifically the 42 inch variant because it's the cheapest oled panel i can get, tho I know the QD OLED is far more superior, ig i prefer value for money
TTTTRRREEEEEEE!!!
Man I worry about videos like this that Samsung might see it then clamp down on the service menu. Do you have to be so explicit lol. Maybe just a vague reference to the avs forums instead of all the step by step instructions in the description and let people find it for themselves if they are that interested?? I just worry >
Yeh that's right difference between Peak w vs HM Pat Peak w. Plus is Active vs Static. Yeh can't do real time testing cause it dims, that is annoying.
Samsung won't care about this channel at all, we're still invisible for them.
What difference would it makenif I change the HDMI EDID? Will it make HDR10+ auto detect 2000 instead of 1200? That would be great!
@@plasmatvforgaming9648 yes exactly that
@@rasa4512 theres no use case for HDR10+ over HDR10 for gaming right? bc you either use the panel peak that is set in Windows HDR Calibration or using an in-game HDR slider. In both cases, you won't be able to benefit from dynamic metadata bc the game itself already tonemaps it to your display based on the peak you tell it, no?
Estimated lifespan 1 year XD
I don't beleive so, the way you use the TV is key and I'm an expert babysitter
@plasmatvforgaming9648 I'm expecting a " I broke my s95c" video in a few months XD
And one week later TV blows up😅
😂 I don't believe so
😂 party over if you're comparing it to lg c1, the c4 is out
This S95C has almost 2x the brightness of the C4
c1 and c4 have the same brightness and panel
@@speedtree c4 is nearly as bright as g2 .. about 200 nits brighter than c1
@@holgerbahr8961 and that's only if it was a 1st gen c1, the 2nd batches also had evo panels. So really only the processor got improved which might equate to what 100 nits more or so?
@@rasa4512 processor should not euqate into any nits at all .. perhaps better black level detail and overall fine tuning options for a slightly better picture
