Samsung OLED TVs S95C, S90C launched in India: price, features

Samsung S90C, S95C OLED TVs: price, availability

LG and Sony were, for the longest time, the only notable companies that offered OLED TVs in India. This changed in April last year, when China-headquartered Xiaomi launched its own range of OLED TVs in India. Now, Samsung enters the category with two ranges — S90C and S95C.

Both the ranges will be offered in 55-inch, 65-inch and 77-inch variants of their screen sizes. Samsung is yet to reveal the exact prices of each screen size of the two OLED TV ranges, and the landing pages of the TVs do not reveal the same either. However, Samsung confirmed in a press statement that prices of the new OLED TVs will begin at Rs 1,69,990.

Both the TVs will be available online only via Samsung’s own online store. In the offline market, the OLED TVs will be available across “all leading retail stores”, the company confirmed.
