When viewed on the larger Q80T models, this makes perfect sense. The launcher bar is a little smaller, allowing more apps to sit onscreen without a need to scroll. Samsung made revisions to its Tizen smart TV platform in 2020 to improve usability. Multi View Mode will be appealing for some.Samsung Q80T QLED review: smart TV (Tizen) The screen is bundled with two remote controls, one the usual button strewn offering most of us will gravitate to, the other a simplified pointer. You almost certainly won’t need everything on offer, but it’s nice to have them in reserve. Rounding things out are two USB ports, digital optical audio out, Ethernet to support Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and a Common Interface slot, for all those territories which require one. FreeSync support is included for PC AMD gamers too. The set can handle 4K at 60Hz (expected from PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X games), 2K at 120Hz, plus VRR (Variable Refresh rate) and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode). There’s 4K at 120fps support on HDMI 4, and eARC on input 3. Samsung’s designers have gone some way to mitigating this extra depth by framing the panel with a ridiculously minimal bezel, creating the illusion that pictures are magically hanging in the air.Ĭonnectivity is excellent, too, with four HDMIs that offer advanced and varying specifications.
