Philips 40PQF7446/F7 40" QLED Smart TV vs Samsung 40 Inch F600F Smart TV
The Samsung F600F is the better pick for most people: it is a 4K set, and on a 40-inch screen the extra resolution is visible in text, sports and streaming menus. The Philips 40PQF7446 pairs a QLED panel with Google TV and built-in Google Assistant, but it is only 1080p, so its picture is softer up close. Build on both is basic plastic, and owners of each report the usual small-TV trade-offs: modest speakers and few inputs. Buy the Samsung for picture sharpness and the Philips for Google's interface and voice control.
- Choose the Philips 40PQF7446 if you want Google TV with hands-free Google Assistant and a QLED panel, and you sit far enough back that 1080p looks fine.
- Choose the Samsung F600F if picture sharpness matters most and you want 4K resolution, HDR and Object Tracking Sound Lite in a 40-inch set.
