TCL QM8K QD-Mini LED TV vs Samsung 85" R85H Micro RGB 4K TV
The TCL QM8K is the better pick for most people deciding between these two. It is a QD-Mini LED set with up to 3800 dimming zones, high HDR brightness, a 144Hz native panel, Game Accelerator 288 and Bang & Olufsen audio, and reviewers consistently praise its contrast and color. The Samsung R85H is a Micro RGB set with 100% BT.2020 color coverage and Wi-Fi 6E, but its 30W 2-channel sound is modest and it is a first-generation panel tech with little owner feedback. Choose the TCL unless you specifically want the widest color gamut and the newest RGB backlight.
- Choose the TCL QM8K if you want proven mini-LED contrast and brightness, strong gaming features and better built-in sound for less.
- Choose the Samsung R85H if you want the widest BT.2020 color coverage and the newest Micro RGB backlight, and you plan to add a soundbar.
