release date of perfectly clear complete v4

We retested 'Movie' and 'FILMMAKER MODE' with the latest firmware, version 1211. We've also split the console compatibility boxes into separate PS5 Compatibility and Xbox Series X|S Compatibility tests. Updated to Test Bench 1.7 with an updated HDR Brightness test that better reflects real world usage. The TV no longer produces bright flashes of around 1400 nits in the 'Movie' and 'Game' modes. We retested the peak brightness in HDR with the latest firmware, 1302. Updated to Test Bench 1.8, adding a new box for PQ EOTF tracking and updating our Color Volume and Color Gamut tests to better reflect real world usage. The color gamut and volume have changed slightly. We've switched to a new tool and updated our measurements. We discovered a flaw with the equipment used to force an HDR signal when measuring color volume and the color gamut. There's no difference in HDR performance with this update. The SDR brightness changed a bit, and 2% windows are no longer dimmed by the TV, but the overall peak brightness stayed the same. We rechecked the peak brightness in SDR and HDR with firmware update 1303. We added pre-calibration measurements with the gamma setting set to Samsung's default BT.1886 instead of a flat 2.2 or 2.4 gamma. The uniformity scores changed slightly and better reflect the true performance of the display. Some of our photos were incorrectly processed, so we updated them.

Retook the reflection photos with the same camera and in the same room as the Sony A95K to make comparison easier. We reduced the build quality score from 9.0 to 8.5 to better reflect how the quality of this TV compares to other 2022 models. Tested the Sony A95K OLED and compared its tone mapping to the S95B.
