Ready, set, buy: Samsung announces pricing, availability on its 2015 TVs

Samsung introduced a slew of new SUHD and UHD TVs on the second day of April at an event in New York. All of the new models feature Samsung’s cutting-edge TV technology, and 4K pixel resolution, while the best of the best sport a lot more colors, and high dynamic range for ultra-bright details.

Here are all of the new TVs Samsung added to its 2015 lineup, with the pricing and availability you’ve been waiting for since CES 2015.

Samsung Curved SUHD TV lineup

Samsung’s JS9500 TV has a curved screen that features the company’s nano-crystal technology, greatly expanding color gamut for a picture closer to what movie directors have always wanted us to see. PurColor helps manage color output for a natural appearance, and the company’s Auto-Depth Enhancer, feature toys with contrast to give a greater sense of depth. The TV comes with Samsung’s One Connect Box, which can be constantly updated with the latest model to keep the TV up to date with the most UHD standards that are still in the works. Pricing for the JS9500 Curved SUHD TV Series starts at $6,500, and the TV line will arrive in stores this April.

Next up in Samsung’s lineup of curved SUHD TVs is the JS9100. This TV has Peak Illuminator Pro technology, which uses increased LED illumination to brighten up the lightest parts of the picture. It also features UHD upscaling, so that even low-resolutions images appear crisper. The Samsung JS9100 arrives in May, and you can get the 78-inch model for $10,000.

The last curved SUHD TV in Samsung’s set is the JS9000, which has an edge-lit LED panel, the company’s nano-crystal technology, Precision Black for better black levels, and Peak Illuminator Pro for increased brightness when called for. This TV works with Samsung’s Tizen-based Smart TV platform, and can be hung on a wall or placed on a stand. The JS9000 Curved SUHD TV comes in three different sizes: a 48-inch model for $3,500, a 55-inch model for $4,000, and a 65-inch model for $5,000.

Samsung Curved UHD TV lineup

Samsung also updated its UHD TV line with a few new models. First up, we have the JU6700 Curved UHD TV with its 4K UHD resolution. It’s got PurColor technology, so colors don’t look oversaturated or false (but lacks the wider color gamut of Samsung’s SUHD TVs). This model is coming to stores in the spring in three size options, including a 40-inch model for $950, a 48-inch model for $1,150, a 55-inch model for $1,500, and a 65-inch model for $2,700.

Next, Samsung added the JU7500 Curved UHD TV, which has UHD upscaling technology to bring your older, less high-resolution files up to 4K UHD quality. It, too, is coming this spring in a few sizes: a 40-inch model for $1,400, a 48-inch model for $1,600, a 55-inch model for $2,000, a 65-inch model for $3,000, and a 78-inch model for $6,000.

Samsung SUHD and UHD flat TVs

If you’re not a fan of the curved TVs, Samsung also introduced two flat TVs — one in the SUHD line, and the other in the UHD line.

Samsung’s JS8500 SUHD TV may be flat and look like a normal TV, but it has the same high-quality screen with Precision Black technology, nano-crystal tech for wider color gamut and high dynamic range. The TV works with Samsung’s Tizen Smart TV platform, and it’s available now in a 55-inch model for $3,000 and a 65-inch model for $4,000.

On the UHD side, there’s the Samsung JU7100 UHD TV, which features Peak Illuminator and UHD Dimming, for bright whites and deep blacks. It works with the Smart TV platform, and it will be available in April. The 40-inch model costs $1,400, the 50-inch model $1,500, the 55-inch model $1,800, the 60-inch model  $2,500, the 65-inch model $3,000, and the 75-inch model $5,000.

Samsung prices its 77-inch QD-OLED at $4,500. Presale starts now
The Samsung S95C on display at CES 2023.

Confirming an earlier leak, Samsung has formally announced the price of its 77-inch 4K QD-OLED TV, the S95C. The new model which was shown first at CES 2023, will sell for $4,500. , and Samsung says shipments will begin later in the month. Those who buy the TV during the preorder period will also qualify for free professional installation, which Samsung says is worth $250.

The price is less of a surprise thanks to an earlier accidental slip by Samsung -- near the end of January, the company briefly put the price of the S95C on its U.S. website, and then quickly removed it. But not before it was captured and reported on.

Samsung accidentally reveals price of its 77-inch QD-OLED TV
The Samsung S95C on display at CES 2023.

Usually, when new TVs are announced at CES, it can take months for companies to reveal pricing and availability. And perhaps Samsung was planning to do just that with its 77-inch S95C, its largest QD-OLED TV to date. But the company seemingly let the cat out of the bag on January 26, by including the new model -- and its price -- on its U.S. website, according to Sammobile.

The S95C details are no longer on the website, so Digital Trends can't verify the information, however, a screenshot taken at the time shows a price of $4499.99, making the larger model $1,500 more expensive than its currently available 65-inch S95B, which sells for $3,000. If this seems like a bigger gap in price than we're used to for models that exist in both 65- and 77-inch sizes, it could be because the S95C is going to be Samsung's premium 77-inch QD-OLED, with the planned S90C arriving in a 77-inch size but with fewer features.

Samsung was the first company to show off a 4K TV based on QD-OLED technology at CES 2022, and now, at CES 2023 it has unveiled two new QD-OLED models -- the S95C Samsung OLED and S90C Samsung OLED -- and each will be available as 77-inch models. Both will also be offered in 55- and 65-inch sizes.  The news came one day after Samsung Display confirmed it would show its next-gen "QD-OLED 2023" panel at the show in a 77-inch size.

When QD-OLED-based TVs debuted in 2022, Samsung and Sony revealed the first two 4K TVs models within hours of each other: the Samsung S95B and the Sony A95K. Both TVs proved to be absolutely stunning in terms of picture quality, leaving our reviewer no choice but to award them a rare 10/10 rating. But the TVs themselves weren't especially large; only 55- and 65-inch sizes were introduced.
