I bought a Samsung Q65 55” about 4-5 yrs ago. Wasn’t sure how well it would stand up to the Sony Bravia I replaced. Was such a great picture, I really only wanted a Samsung. Decision was go less expensive with a Q60 or Q70 or move to next level. I ended up with the Q80T after exhausting research. Best viewing angles, dark blacks and good dimming zones vs edge lit. Also, the previous model showed some reflection of lights or windows. Totally fine here. The test is putting on a 4K YouTube of an aquarium. The dynamic colors, contrast and clarity leave me feeling I have the best TV around. Also, I did pretty thorough cost check and Best Buy’s price was consistent with every where I looked across the board- or the price would match but competitor wasn’t selling 2020 model number. Very happy with purchase!!

I did a lot of research before buying, and it paid off. My watching use cases are movies, sports, and YouTube, and often in a room that is well lit, but never blacked out. As such I wanted 4K QLED (instead of OLED, which is known to be excellent in black out conditions), with decent motion handling, good brightness (to account for ambient light in the room), and as minimal glare as possible. This tv has overachieved vs the expectations I had before buying in each of these departments. In particular, viewing angles are wider than I expected them to be. Definitely add a sound bar if you care about listening to what your watching. Go Bills!

Incredibly vivid colors and a pretty decent sound but a good soundbar with woofer and satellite speakers completent the great cinematic experience. Smarter hub and redesigned slim remote are a definite plus. Another huge plus: new streaming apps like HBOMAX and DISNEY PLUS are just a few clicks away eliminating the need for a streaming media device saving you a couple of hundred dollars (Nvidia Shield is the only one who offers both platforms. Other TV brands do not have this advantage! Most importantly for us: we didn't want to hang our TV on our rare stone work above our fireplace and most models have at least a 12 inch footprint. Too big. This TV'S awesome stand in the center protrudes out the back at a low 35 degree angle profile making it possible to push the TV stand couple of inches in the console compartment above the mantle giving us a footprint width of about 11 inches. This allowed us to securely place our TV on the mantle and save our stone from possible install damage and TV position permanency. Overall great TV with a good, slim, clean rear surface. One thing Samsung has not tackled yet though is glare. Your living room lights reflect as prismatic linear lines on the screen and the only ones we found not affecting glare are the spot lights above the fireplace. After a while though we kind of block them out and Edison vintage brown glass light bulbs cut down some of the glare.
