Is the Samsung QE55T good for gaming?

Only casually. It has HDMI 2.0, no VRR and no high frame rate support, so it caps at 60Hz and lacks the smoothing features gamers look for.

Does it have local dimming?

No. It is a backlit LED set without local dimming, so dark scenes look grayish compared with sets that dim zones independently.

How many HDMI ports does it have?

Two, both HDMI 2.0 with HDCP 2.2. That is enough for a console and a streaming stick, but tight if you also add a soundbar or cable box.

The TV, its stand, a remote and a power cable. Check the listing for the exact remote type and whether a wall mount is included.

Is it worth it over a QLED model?

If you want deeper blacks, more brightness and better gaming features, a QLED costs more and delivers more. The QE55T is the value pick for everyday viewing.

Can I mount it on a wall?

Yes. It has VESA mounting points, so a standard bracket works once you confirm the pattern for this size.

Our take on the Samsung QE55T 55-inch 4K LED TV

The Samsung QE55T is a 55-inch 4K LED TV with the Tizen smart platform, HDR support and a flat panel. It is a basic edge-lit set: no local dimming, no 120Hz, no VRR or HFR, and only two HDMI 2.0 ports. It suits a secondary room or a budget buyer who wants Samsung's app platform, not a home-theater centerpiece.
