Just what I wanted!

This replaced a 2006 Samsung 61" 1920x1080 HDTV with DLP technology that caught pixel disease after 14 great years. The 55" Q80T is plenty big for my space and at 40 lbs I can move it easily. It arrived in pristine condition, well packed and protected. I wanted a clear, detailed, 4K picture with wide viewing angles and no visible blur for hockey, tennis, football action. It delivers a bright, sharp picture, no blur, wide enough view angles for my home and great sound that surrounds me without a soundbar, just the TV built-in audio system. I was wary of OLED burn-in since a lot of my watching is on news channels that show relatively static screen-bottom panels, so opted for QLED and couldn't be happier. I haven't yet used its "smart" features; to me it's just a great dumb TV but I have the option of going smart if I want to. I have yet to be disappointed by a Samsung electronic product.

Too much light reflected off the screen
By Amit on Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2021
Use Case: Q80T was noted to be one of the better products in the Samsung 4K line for 2020. Wanted to get a TV to watch movies and SciFi shows with a theater like experience that would last a few years. Save on the renewed option to get near new product for a whole bunch of savings.Pros:Picture quality is awesome for bright scenes.Local TV looks fabulous. I have looked at LG previously and local TV did not look as good. I am guessing the processor ups the quality of the picture on this TV.Smart features are awesome. Very user friendly and you don't really need a FireTV or any other device to be able to watch your shows.Samsung Plus has a lot of free channels which are pretty good.Cons:Product was delivered with a remote missing. I had to contact the seller to get this addressed and get a remote, but all they could offer is a $20 refund. Considering the OEM remote costs upwards of $50, I was rather disappointed with the outcome.The blacks in SciFi shows do not look good at all. Shows like the Expanse which were in 4K/UHD did not look as spectacular as I expected to see on this TV. I guess you need to spend more on an OLED TV or look at the Nano line from LG for good quality on that.Tremendous amount of light is reflected from my canned ceiling lights. My previous Sharp TV hardly had any reflection. This TV reflected and scattered the light on the entire screen literally. I constantly have to manage the lighting to watch a movie.Recommendation: Overall, I would NOT recommend this TV. The amount of money you spend on the Q80T is not worth the issues I see with this TV. If I had to do it over again, I would buy a different brand some of which are a lot cheaper than this like TCL.My experience with customer support was not stellar either. To just get a refund of $20 for a missing remote is simply ridiculous. Granted it was not Samsung's fault considering this was sent renewed from a third party seller, but I want to make sure to point that out. My rating is based purely on TV performance and does not take into account the sale experience.
