Samsung Q800T: Review the cheapest 8K

8:17 AM Posted by JPB No Comments

The Samsung QLED Q800T is an 8K TV for sale in 2020. This is the cheapest 8K TV: Should you buy an 8K TV in 2020? The Samsung QLED Q800T is a QLED, Samsung does not go to the OLED market since they are controlled by its great competition: LG. What stands out the most is the 8K resolution, but we know that resolution is not everything: the FALD panel only has 32/24 control zones according to size, that the panel's 100Hz are only available in 4K, etc. Since there is no 8K content, the processor is one of the most important aspects to convert the images and the processor used by the Q800T is the best from Samsung and works really well. The maximum brightness allows an excellent reproduction of the best HDR content, although it is in this aspect a little behind the best 8K: Q900T and Q950T. The sizes available are from 65 inches and up, really big televisions. The design is really careful.

The best: HDR quality, Rescaling.
The worst: Price, Lack of content

Our opinion Samsung Q800T (veredict):

Our opinion on Samsung QLED Q800T is not good, it is an 8K TV and that is the most remarkable thing but for us it is not necessary to buy 8K televisions today, much less pay what they cost this year 2020 and much less pay for a TV with this new resolution at the cost of other more important aspects such as panel uniformity or panel frequency. Is it an excellent TV? Yes and yes, but we would not buy it
