A low contrast ratio, narrow viewing angles, and missing USB 3.0 ports may discourage some people from the Samsung QN800A, but superb motion handling, a 120Hz refresh rate, high brightness, and SpaceFit sound functionality make it worth considering.

What the brand doesn’t always tell you…

our Verdict

The Samsung QN800A is a great choice for gamers and general viewers alike. It has Motion Xcelerator Turbo, a 120Hz native refresh rate, and excellent brightness levels, low input lags, and a SpaceFit sound feature that adjusts sound to your environment. However, it has a low contrast ratio, mediocre viewing angles, and no USB 3.0 ports.
