Best Samsung LED TVs

TL;DR: The Samsung QN70F 65‑inch Neo QLED delivers vibrant 4K picture, up to 144 Hz gaming and a solar‑charged remote for $699.99, positioning it as a strong premium‑value TV.

Its standout spec is the 65‑inch Neo QLED panel with Mini LED backlight, offering 100 Hz native refresh that can push up to 144 Hz for smooth gaming. Samsung’s Vision AI and Pantone‑validated colors aim to personalize picture and sound, while the TV draws 141.0 W typical power. At 48.1 pounds and a depth of 279.4 mm with the stand, the unit feels solid yet sleek enough for most living‑room setups.

Compared with the other six Samsung models in this roundup, the QN70F sits in the middle of the weight spectrum—heavier than the 18.1‑pound Q8F 43‑inch but lighter than the 60.6‑pound QN90F 65‑inch. Its 279.4 mm stand depth matches the 11‑inch depth of the QN80F 65‑inch, making it deeper than the 198.1 mm depth of the Q8F but shallower than the 236 mm depth of the Q7F 55‑inch. Height‑with‑stand at 890.4 mm is comparable to the QN80F’s 34.9‑inch (≈886 mm) profile, while the Q8F stands at a shorter 614.7 mm.

Reviewers consistently applaud the TV’s vivid colors, deep blacks and high brightness, noting the Mini LED backlight delivers strong HDR performance. Gamers appreciate the FreeSync Premium Pro support and the ability to hit 144 Hz. Professional reviewers also highlight the AI‑enhanced 4K upscaling that sharpens lower‑resolution sources. On the flip side, users find the Tizen UI sometimes unintuitive, and there’s mixed chatter about whether the backlight is edge‑lit or full‑array, which can cloud expectations around dimming.

Best for: Those prioritizing premium picture quality, high refresh‑rate gaming and the convenience of a battery‑free remote.

Avoid if: You need a highly intuitive UI, absolute OLED‑level black levels, or are on a tight budget.

TL;DR: The Samsung Q7F 55‑inch QLED TV packs a 200 Hz refresh rate, 6.8 ms VRR input lag and 100% DCI‑P3 color coverage, making it a vivid, low‑latency option for gamers and streamers at a mid‑range price.

The standout spec is the 200 Hz refresh rate paired with a 6.8 ms input lag in VRR mode, which far exceeds the 60 Hz panels found in many competing Samsung models. Its Quantum Dot panel delivers 100% DCI‑P3 color gamut and 10‑bit depth, while HDR10+ and HLG support add dynamic range for HDR content. The TV measures 236 mm deep, 792 mm tall and 1234 mm wide, and weighs 24.5 pounds.

Compared with the other six TVs in this roundup, the Q7F’s 200 Hz refresh rate outpaces the 60 Hz of the Q8F 43‑inch, the U8000F 55‑inch and the F6000 32‑inch, and even beats the 100 Hz of the QN70F 65‑inch. At 24.5 pounds it’s lighter than the QN70F (48.1 pounds), the QN80F (52.2 pounds) and the QN90F (60.6 pounds), though heavier than the Q8F (18.1 pounds) and the F6000 (8.5 pounds). Its 55‑inch screen matches the U8000F’s size but is larger than the Q8F’s 42.5‑inch and the F6000’s 31.5‑inch panels.

Reviewers praise the vivid Quantum Dot colors and the low gaming latency, especially the 6.8 ms VRR mode. Users love the built‑in Alexa and Bixby voice assistants and the sleek, bezel‑less design. However, several reviewers note that the edge‑lit backlight with local dimming can produce less uniform contrast than full‑array mini‑LED rivals, and the Energy Efficiency Class 5 rating means it isn’t ENERGY STAR certified, which some eco‑conscious buyers find disappointing.

Best for: Budget‑conscious buyers seeking a reliable entry‑level option

Avoid if: You want the best value‑per‑dollar in its price range

TL;DR: The Samsung Q8F 43‑inch delivers a vivid QLED picture with Quantum HDR+ and Dual LED backlighting, scores 4.4/5 stars from 755 reviewers, and is a lightweight, well‑reviewed option for small‑room entertainment.

What really sets the Q8F apart is its 42.5 in QLED panel that features over 1 billion Pantone‑certified colors, Dual LED backlighting and Quantum HDR+. Combined with Adaptive Picture and an Eco Sensor, the TV continuously optimises brightness and contrast for a glare‑free view even in bright rooms.

In the context of the seven‑product roundup, the Q8F is noticeably lighter than the 55‑inch Q7F (24.5 pounds) and the 55‑inch U8000F (25.6 pounds), while still weighing less than the larger 65‑inch models that tip the scales at 48.1 pounds, 52.2 pounds and 60.6 pounds. Its 60 Hz refresh rate matches the U8000F but falls short of the Q7F’s 200 Hz panel and the QN70F’s 100 Hz (up to 144 Hz) capability, making it less suited for high‑frame‑rate gaming. The Q8F also offers three HDMI inputs, which is fewer than the higher‑end models that include more ports and HDMI 2.1 features.

Everyday owners praise the razor‑sharp, responsive image and the vibrant colour palette, calling it suitable for movies, sports and casual 1080p gaming in bedrooms or kitchens. Reviewers also note the easy setup and the built‑in Zigbee/Thread hub that simplifies smart‑home integration. Professional reviewers highlight that Quantum HDR+ boosts contrast and dynamic range, while Dual LED backlighting improves brightness uniformity across the screen.

Best for: Most users looking for a well‑reviewed, reliable mainstream option

Avoid if: You need advanced features or professional‑grade performance

TL;DR: The Samsung QN90F 65‑inch Neo QLED delivers stunning 4K visuals with 720 Mini‑LED dimming zones, powerful 60 W audio, and 165 Hz gaming performance, but its premium $1,377.95 price and 137 W power draw may deter budget‑focused buyers.

What really sets the QN90F apart is its Neo QLED panel with Quantum Matrix Technology Plus that houses 720 Mini‑LED dimming zones, giving the TV high contrast and deep blacks. Coupled with the N4 AI Gen3 processor, the set handles 4K AI Upscaling Pro and Neo Quantum HDR+ to keep highlights bright while preserving detail. The built‑in Object Tracking Sound+ system packs 60 W across a 4.2.2 channel layout, providing an immersive audio experience without a separate soundbar.

At 60.6 pounds (27.5 kg with stand) the QN90F is noticeably heavier than its 65‑inch siblings – the QN80F weighs about 52.2 pounds and the QN70F around 48.1 pounds. It also carries a higher price tag than those models, positioning it as the premium option in Samsung’s 65‑inch lineup. While the QN80F and QN70F offer slimmer profiles, the QN90F trades some cabinet slimness for the richer Mini‑LED backlight and more robust speaker output.

Consumers consistently praise the picture quality, noting the “breathtaking 4K visuals” and the effectiveness of the Glare Free anti‑reflection coating in bright rooms. Reviewers also highlight the low input lag and 165 Hz refresh rate for next‑gen console gaming. On the downside, the lack of Dolby Vision HDR limits compatibility with some streaming titles, and the typical power consumption of 137 W can increase electricity costs during long viewing sessions.

Beyond the standout panel, the TV supports HDR10+ Adaptive, a wide viewing angle, and four HDMI 2.1 ports, making it ready for high‑bandwidth sources. The built‑in Alexa voice assistant adds hands‑free control, and the included studio‑stand and wall‑mount options give flexibility for different room setups.

Best for: Those prioritizing top‑tier picture quality, robust built‑in audio, and high‑refresh‑rate gaming performance.

Avoid if: You're shopping on a tight budget — it's priced at $1,377.95.

TL;DR: The Samsung F6000 32‑inch delivers bright Full HD picture, HDR10+ and PurColor colors in a sleek, energy‑efficient package for under $150, but its 60 Hz refresh and lack of 4K keep it in the budget lane.

The F6000 sports a 31.5‑inch LED LCD panel with Full HD (1920 × 1080) resolution, HDR10+ support and Samsung’s PurColor technology, which together aim for vivid contrast and a wide color gamut. It runs on Tizen OS with Knox security and will receive updates through December 2030. Weighing just 8.5 pounds (3860 g), the TV mounts easily on a small wall or a narrow stand, and it draws only 18 W typical power (48 W max), earning Energy Star certification.

Compared with the other six Samsung models in this roundup, the F6000 is the lightest—significantly lighter than the 55‑inch U8000F at 25.6 pounds and the 43‑inch Q8F at 18.1 pounds. Its 31.5‑inch screen is also the smallest, and its 60 Hz refresh rate matches the U8000F and Q8F but falls far short of the Q7F’s 200 Hz and the QN70F’s up‑to‑144 Hz capabilities. In other words, you get a compact, budget‑friendly set while the larger peers offer higher‑end gaming and motion handling.

Reviewers consistently highlight the HDR10+ and PurColor combo for delivering richer contrast and more accurate colors, especially in bedroom or kitchen setups where space is limited. Professional editors praised the three‑bezel‑less design for its minimal footprint, and users appreciate the straightforward Tizen interface plus the built‑in Knox security. The main criticisms focus on the lack of 4K resolution and the modest 10 W RMS, 2‑channel audio, which can feel underpowered in larger rooms or for immersive gaming.

The TV includes two HDMI ports, a USB port, a CI slot and RF input, giving you enough connectivity for a streaming stick, a game console and an antenna. Its typical consumption of 18 W translates to about 26 kWh per year, keeping electricity costs low. The included remote (model TM1240A) and the mini wall‑mount kit round out a package that’s ready to go out of the box.

Best for: Shoppers on a tight budget who want the most for their money

Avoid if: You need advanced features or professional‑grade performance

TL;DR: The Samsung QN80F 65‑inch Neo QLED offers a bright 64.5‑inch 4K display with 120‑144 Hz refresh, AI‑driven upscaling and smart‑home features, but its premium price and lack of a full glare‑free coating may limit some buyers.

The QN80F packs a 64.5‑inch Neo QLED Mini‑LED panel that delivers 4K resolution with a 120 Hz refresh rate (up to 144 Hz) and Neo Quantum HDR. Samsung’s NQ4 AI Gen2 processor powers 4K AI Upscaling using 20 neural networks, while Vision AI tailors picture and sound to the room. At 52.2 lb with the stand, the TV measures 11 inches deep and 34.9 inches tall, fitting comfortably in a living‑room setup.

Compared with the other six Samsung models in this roundup, the QN80F weighs more than the 48.1‑lb QN70F but less than the 60.6‑lb QN90F. Its 64.5‑inch screen matches the QN90F’s size and dwarfs the 42.5‑inch Q8F and 31.5‑inch F6000. The 120‑144 Hz refresh outpaces the 60 Hz panels of the Q8F, U8000F and F6000, while sitting below the 200 Hz rate of the Q7F. Pricing-wise, it's above the entry‑level QN70F and below the flagship QN90F, placing it in the premium‑tier price bracket.

Reviewers consistently praise the TV’s vivid colors, high brightness and smooth gaming performance, noting that the AI‑driven upscaling and HDR10+ Gaming make daytime sports and high‑intensity games look punchy. Professional editors highlight its ultra‑fine contrast and AI personalization as breakthroughs for bright‑room viewing. The main criticism is that it lacks a fully glare‑free coating, which can let reflections distract in very bright environments.

The unit draws a typical 159 W during use and only 0.50 W on standby; an Eco Sensor dims the screen in low‑light conditions. Built‑in Zigbee/Thread, Apple AirPlay 2 and Dolby Atmos with Object Tracking Sound Lite turn the TV into a smart‑home hub that can control compatible devices and deliver immersive audio.

Best for: Those prioritizing quality and willing to pay for premium performance

Avoid if: Dark‑room cinephiles seeking OLED‑level black depth, or anyone needing a fully glare‑free display

TL;DR: The Samsung U8000F offers a 55‑inch 4K LED display, HDR10+ support, and a 25.6‑pound frame at a budget‑friendly $298, making it a solid entry‑level smart TV.

The standout spec is the 55‑inch 4K panel paired with HDR10+ and HLG, delivering bright, colour‑rich images on a screen that measures 48.2 inches wide, 29.9 inches tall and only 7.8 inches deep. At 25.6 pounds, the TV is sturdy enough for wall‑mounting yet still manageable for moving around a living room.

Compared with the other six Samsung models in this roundup, the U8000F is heavier than the 24.5‑pound Q7F but far lighter than the 60.6‑pound QN90F. Its 60 Hz refresh rate is modest next to the Q7F’s 200 Hz and the QN70F’s up‑to‑144 Hz capability, placing it squarely in the budget tier rather than the premium gaming segment.

Reviewers consistently praise the TV’s HDR processing, noting minimal banding and accurate brightness tracking. The built‑in SmartThings hub with Matter compatibility also earns points for easy smart‑home control. On the downside, professionals highlight the lack of local dimming, which reduces black depth, and users report that upscaling of low‑quality streams can reveal pixelation. The 60 Hz panel, while fine for movies and casual streaming, it's not enough for competitive gamers.

Technical notes: The unit runs on a Crystal Processor 4K with AI Upscaling, features Motion Xcelerator for smoother motion, and includes Bluetooth 5.3, Wi‑Fi 5, three HDMI inputs (with eARC/ARC), one USB‑A port, and a LAN port.

Best for: Entry-level buyers or those on a tight budget

Avoid if: Movie enthusiasts demanding deep blacks and strong contrast, competitive gamers needing 120 Hz performance
