Why the hate with Samsung?

Before I finally bought my S90F (mainly gaming/anime) last month for a good deal in Canada, I was doing heavy research about recommended TV brands for an OLED and I was just seeing the vast majority of people saying "Buy LG, or Sony if you can afford it (especially for movies) and never buy Samsung". The general arguments was that Samsung QC is terrible and they don't last long.

I still pulled the trigger since it was the cheaper option for a mid tier OLED at the price l got it (1799.99$CAD) and I heard Samsung was pulling out QD-OLED from their 90 serie going forward with the S90H.

Meanwhile, I'm seeing more and more people having problems with their LG C1-C6 here on Reddit. Bad uniformity, green tint, delamination (big one), panel lottery, problems out of the box and just panels that die.

So I am asking, do you think Samsung hate is overblown compared to the competition? Or is it really justified?

S90F dims agressively during cutscenes, is this normal?

Playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2 on Switch 2 and the screen dims during different camera angles in a cutscene and go back up only to dim back in the next.

HDR is set to "Compatible Software Only" on the Switch and the game doesn't support it.

It's really distracting. I included a short video to show it.

Any tips or knowledge to share with me about this? I would appreciate some help, thank you.

UPDATE: I turned HDR off after recommendation. All "AI, Auto or Enhancer" settings are turned off. Issue still remains.

UPDATE 2: After much testing, including the Switch 1/2 Edition on both console using LED screens, it appears that the issue is from the game.

UPDATE 3: A redditor came and made a comment, that he later removed, pointing out that subtitles can cause this effect. After watching a Xenoblade 2 cutscene with and without subs, it appears to be true. I'll have to test it myself.
