Product Information

Ergonomics Information about the ergonomic functions - height adjustment, swivel angles, tilt angles, etc. VESA mount The Q60T is mounted on two feet—rather than a central stand, which are very easy to insert, without even a need for screws. The next step in the price analysis was to look at the average price you would typically expect to pay for Televisions and as Currys PC World was selected for this review we’ve used them for gathering our information on the average price of Televisions. As far as actual colours go, the Samsung’ palette is wide-ranging and convincing. I had to delve into the harder-to-reach corners of the set-up menus to get that balance between ‘natural’ and ‘vivid’ just so, but once the correct level of vibrancy is achieved the Q60T/Q65T is a believable and well-balanced watch. A colour gamut coverage of around 92% is not to be sniffed at in a screen as affordable as this one – it’s a big QLED plus-point.

Ang Lee’s Life of Pi (4K Blu-ray) proved a great choice for the Q60T, with the set’s panel able to vividly show the bright blues of the Piscine Molitor swimming pool, and the comparative lightness of the film’s earlier scenes. The skin tone issue is apparent here, though, with Irrfan Khan’s face seeming to match the color of the wooden cabinets in his kitchen.What does this mean materially for the Q60T? Not that much. You’re still getting great upscaling from HD, even on the Q60T’s larger screen sizes (like the 65-inch mode reviewed here). Watching the US sitcom Community, the HD footage looked suitably detailed on the Q60T’s 4K panel. HD content isn’t indistinguishable from native 4K, and there’s a slightly ‘flat’ effect with HD images that comes from the process Samsung uses to smooth over video noise, but these aren’t so noticeable as to ruin the viewing experience. Then we thought that we should be looking at Samsung Televisions rather than just looking at Televisions or just looking at Samsung products. By combining the two pieces of data it helps to ensure that the prices and analysis we’re carrying out is as accurate as possible and gives you the closest match to the average price of similar products to 50″ SAMSUNG QE50Q60TAUXXU Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR QLED TV with Bixby, Alexa & Google Assistant as possible.

The cable box or satellite box remote control doesn’t turn the TV on or off or adjust the volume. 28HDR colors are subdued, likely due to the mid-range processor and edge-lighting. Greys and browns tend to merge with similar tones, without much nuance, which is a shame in colorful films such as Life of Pi. We like that the Samsung Q60T QLED TV is incredibly easy to set-up with feet inserts that don’t require screws, and most models in the range are relatively light, so it won’t be a burden to lift. Although the Q60T’s audio leaves a lot to be desired, its eARC support means you can get lossless audio out of any external audio kit, so you'll need a soundbar or a home audio setup.
