Stunning display and great HDR performance
on April 1, 2025
Posted by: jtinfl
from Apopka
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This S85F OLED is super thin and great building quality, the stand installation is very easy and no tools required. The panel quality is really amazing, color is brilliant and vibrant. Peak brightness is amazing and good for HDR content. The ai image engine works like a charm which upscales legacy resolution video to fit the modern look and make it smoother frame rates. When connected with external devices 2 out of 4 HDMI ports support 120hz which can provide great gaming experience. This panel is Pantone certified which content creators can use this TV as their monitor as well. This version of the Tizen OS runs pretty smoothly but still has the same issues as all other versions- when the TV runs for long periods of time, the UI may slow response for couple seconds. Overall this TV performance super great and really fits my home, love the building quality and panel performance! Highly recommend!

A Sweet and Compact Package
on April 2, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung’s new 4K S85F TV came in a nice little package. The TV includes a sturdy, minimalistic remote designed for ease of use. From unboxing to setup, everything was smooth and hassle free.
The flat space saving design means it doesn’t take up much room, which is a big plus. It has all the apps I love built right in making them easy to launch any time I wish. I set it up as a secondary computer display and it fit right into my setup. Now, I can switch over to my gaming PC and take full advantage of the 120Hz refresh rate which makes fast paced games look buttery smooth. And when I just want to kick back and relax I can fire up my favorite media apps with no effort.
Watching content on the OLED panel is a treat. The colors are rich, and the blacks are deep, way better than my other TVs. If you’re looking for a solid setup without going too big, this one’s a great pick.

Samsung S85F Raises the Bar for Entry-level OLEDs
on April 2, 2025
Posted by: hrahim1
from Brooklyn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was looking to upgrade the bedroom/gaming TV from an 40" LCD to a 55" OLED and was blown away by the S85F.
As the entry level model of Samsung's 2025 line-up I wasn't sure what tradeoffs I would have to make but this TV is a no compromise OLED. Samsung's entry level OLED is better than the mid-tier models from just a few years back.
The brightness is great on HDR content and the contrast and deep blacks you get with an OLED make gaming even better. Very happy to not have to deal with the blooming effect of my LCD TV.
The Q-Symphony works seamlessly with my Samsung soundbar and Frame speaker, adding an extra depth to surround sound movies as well as enhancing the dialogue.
The 120hz HDMI support makes this an ideal gaming TV and the Samsung TV Plus channels offer a good change of pace from the streaming services when you're looking for something to watch.
And with the recent HDR10+ support added to Netflix, this TV is now able to get the best HDR quality from the leading streaming service.
While the solar charging is amazing, I really hope Samsung brings back the dedicated HDMI input button on their remotes.

Upgrade your TV game!
on April 3, 2025
Posted by: tyleranthony

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never knew what I was missing until I got this TV. I knew I needed to upgrade my TV to a faster processor to watch all my apps, and this did not disappoint. The operating system is fast and responsive, the remote (which can charge itself with light!) is simple and intuitive, and I haven't even gotten to the picture yet. It takes a little time to set up the picture the first time for the best visuals depending on what you're watching (movies, sports, video games, reality TV). The Motion Xcelerator 120Hz really helped me understand why everyone says you need 120Hz, it makes gaming motion looks crystal clear and helps you see the puck in a hockey game like you were there in person. But once you know what you need to set it to it often feels like I am in the show not watching it. Yet sometimes I still have some trouble finding the right settings for a certain show I am watching, but just by turning on AI mode I can solve that issue immediately. It takes advantage of the NQ4 AI Gen 2 Processor that automatically detects what is on the screen and optimizes settings based on the genre! I can have perfection without having to tinker. If you can add on a Samsung soundbar that syncs with the TV speakers it really feels like a bougie setup with a small spatial footprint, perfect for smaller spaces.

Bright colors and Inky blacks!
on April 3, 2025
Posted by: whitgoss
from Sandy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was ready to swap out my old 40-inch LCD for something nicer, and decided on the Samsung S85F OLED—and wow, it’s honestly insane. Setup was a breeze; had it up and running in like 10 minutes tops. It’s ridiculously thin, too—probably the slimmest TV I’ve ever owned. Still need to figure out a wall mount since it’s so slim, but totally worth it.
The picture quality genuinely blew me away. Colors pop, blacks are actually deep black—not that weird gray I got used to on my old TV. Gaming is a huge step up thanks to the 120Hz refresh rate, making fast action look silky smooth. No more blooming issues either, which was always annoying on the LCD.
I love how the built-in apps make everything easy, and the Samsung TV Plus channels are a cool bonus when I get bored of Netflix. Plus, watching HDR content now looks ridiculously good, especially since Netflix added HDR10+ support. It almost feels 3D at times; stuff on screen looks like I could just reach out and grab it.
Sound-wise, it syncs perfectly with my Samsung soundbar—way more immersive than I expected. Also, props to the solar-powered remote—no more hunting for batteries, thank God. I just wish they’d bring back the dedicated HDMI input button on the remote; that’s honestly my only complaint.
I seriously can’t imagine going back to a regular TV after this. If you’re on the fence, just go for it—you definitely won’t regret it.

Samsung OLED S85F TV Delivers!!!
on April 4, 2025
Posted by: gigastorm1
from Manchester
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung S85F OLED TV is the television upgrade I been waiting for. The S85F delivers stunning picture depth and color, excellent sound, and cool software features. I have AI mode turned on to control both the picture and sound. All the colors pop on the screen and no adjustments are needed.
The unboxing was easy and the TV was light enough to lift out on your own. The instant I turned on my Samsung TV, it detected Samsung SmartThings on my Samsung phone and paired it with ease. After a quick software update and my S85F TV was ready to go. While it did come with a solar remote, I find using my phone as the remote as it offers a lot of choice at my fingertips. I find myself intuitively using the mouse pad and point and click throughout the TV.
There are a lot of software features. The Ambient mode turns my TV into a work of art when the TV is not in use. The built in light sensor adjust the brightness of the based on the room's lighting. While the sound sensor provides an alert on my phone if the TV picks up loud sounds. The Daily Board adds weather and the ability to record a memo on the TV. It can also turn my phone into a Karaoke Mic to sing Karaoke with the TV and provide screen mirroring with my phone. The S85F detects automatically whenever I play a game and switches to Game Mode automatically. The AI button provides additional information on the television shows that I am watching like who is the cast and suggests what to watch next.

Entry Level Perfection
on April 7, 2025
Posted by: lessthanzero26801
from Cleveland
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the S95B, S95C, and S95D flagship Samsung OLED TV's, so my expectations were tempered for the entry level S85F OLED going into it. I can honestly say my expectations were set way too low. The S85F is full of premium features that even some of my previous years' flagship models didn't ship with.
The color is obviously rich and accurate, and the blacks are deep and inky, which you would expect from a Samsung OLED. But this TV includes a whole host of cutting edge smart features that it would take all day to list.
I love the new UI. My previous TV's got the One UI update, but they don't implement it the way this year's TV launch with it. I love the fact that Samsung is finally using the mobile UI we all know and love in a practical way on their TV lineup. One UI is so much better than the old Tizen OS. Everything is controlled, tweaked, and accessed through pop-up windows instead of the entire screen being populated. It allows you to tweak settings without missing part of a show.
I also like the integration of Samsung's Daily Board. This allows your TV to display useful info using voice commands, even when the TV is turned off. Samsung is always at the forefront of cutting edge but practical features.
I'm using the S85F with my new HW-Q990F Dolby Atmos surround soundbar. The Q-Symphony function allows you to incorporate the TV's speakers as additional satellites in the surround setup. The result is an even more atmospheric soundscape.
The S85F provides premium, flagship level features at the price on an entry level TV. You will not be disappointed when you put this TV in your home.

OLED At A Great Price
on April 7, 2025
Posted by: Nelofar
from Schenectady
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This new Samsung S85F OLED TV is raising the bar and expectations of what kind of TV can be had for such a price. This TV has many top end features that one would expect in a flagship TV but for a price that wont hurt the bank. The Samsung S85F is a sleek TV with an amazing picture quality with deep inky blacks and colors that pop. The speakers on the TV also produce great sound that fills our living room without needing to put in on ridiculously high volume. Another great sound feature the TV has is Q-Symphony that allows the TV's speakers to work with a compatible Samsung soundbar together to output more rich sound. The solarcell remote that comes with TV is neat since it can charge from the sun, my only gripe with the remote is the removal of buttons that would have otherwise made it easy to change settings or source.
The other great feature I almost forgot to mention is the motion Xcelerator that allows games to be played in fast 120fps for extra smooth gameplay. The game hub is also really cool since it allows you to stream games from services such as Xbox Gamepass and others. Something really interesting I noticed during the truly easy unboxing of this TV was that despite its size, it was surprising light enough that I could lift it on my own.
