What reviewers say

Choose.tv's QN85F test and Computer Bild's German 55-inch test both praised its bright, contrast-rich HDR picture and extensive 4K gaming support. Choose.tv noticed occasional haloing around small highlights; Computer Bild found off-axis colours and contrast weakened quickly. Both noted the absence of Dolby Vision. Their results reflect different regional test sets and screen sizes.
