TCL S4 65" 4K Roku TV vs Samsung QN80F 65" 4K Smart TV

The Samsung QN80F is the better TV: mini-LED backlighting, a 120 Hz panel and much deeper contrast beat the TCL S4's plain edge-lit 60 Hz screen, and its 4.6 rating from 423 owners backs that up. The TCL S4 is the simpler, lighter pick with the Roku interface many people already know, and it works with Siri and AirPlay, which the Samsung does not list. Buy the Samsung if picture quality and gaming matter; buy the TCL if you want an easy, low-effort Roku TV.

  • Choose the TCL S4 if you want the Roku home screen, Siri and AirPlay support, and a light 65-inch set that is easy to move and wall-mount.
  • Choose the Samsung QN80F if you care about contrast, HDR impact and smooth 120 Hz motion for sports and gaming.

Questions and answers

Which is better for gaming?
The Samsung QN80F. Its 120 Hz panel and mini-LED dimming handle fast motion and bright highlights better than the TCL S4's 60 Hz edge-lit screen.
Which has better picture quality in a dark room?
The Samsung. Local dimming on the QN80F keeps blacks darker, while the TCL S4 has no local dimming and can look washed out in low light.
Which is easier to set up and use?
The TCL S4. Roku's home screen and small remote are simpler than Samsung's Tizen menus, and the TCL is about 19 lb lighter to hang.
Does either work with Apple devices?
The TCL S4 does, with AirPlay and Siri support. The Samsung QN80F lists Alexa and Google Assistant only.
Is the Samsung worth stepping up to?
Yes if you watch a lot of HDR content or play games. The TCL S4 is fine for casual viewing and saves you the extra weight and complexity.
Which lasts longer?
Neither maker publishes a lifespan figure. The Samsung's higher owner rating and newer 2025 design suggest fewer early complaints, but both are LED sets with similar long-term wear.
