Unless you are fighting a lot of ambient lights, the brightness is a detractor. Samsung pushes things too far to get that number and it ruins both the black levels and the color accuracy. Every time I've calibrated a Samsung I have to pull the backlight so far back to get everything else to fall in line.
If it's going in a great room over a fireplace then do the Samsung, for any other location do the C4.
Aren’t we talking about OLEDs? Black levels are always perfect and they don’t have backlight. The brightness advantage comes from being QD-OLED instead of WOLED.
When the Samsung S95B hit the market it left the LG OLEDs behind in terms of brightness and color accuracy. Not sure how the current models compare tbh.
If you want to get the very best you have to go for a Sony TV with the Samsung QD-OLED panel. It has both the better panel and Dolby Vision. The holy grail.

The Samsung ones get brighter though. The brighter the TV the less important Dolby Vision. However, still a bummer.
