Our take on the Samsung QN43Q60AA 43 Smart LED TV
The Samsung QN43Q60AA is a 43-inch 4K QLED smart TV from Samsung's 2021 Q60A line. It uses a dual-LED backlight with quantum dots for wide color, runs Tizen with Samsung's app selection, and includes the SolarCell remote that charges from indoor light. It suits a bedroom, small living room or secondary room where 43 inches is the right size. Against budget 4K sets it adds QLED color and a brighter panel; against Samsung's own QN90 series it gives up full-array local dimming and high brightness, so HDR highlights are less punchy and black levels are weaker in dark scenes.
- Quantum dot QLED panel with wide, saturated color
- 4K resolution with HDR10+ and HLG support
- Tizen smart platform with a broad app lineup
- SolarCell remote charges from light, no batteries
- Slim design with a near-borderless look
- Object Tracking Sound Lite and Q-Symphony with Samsung soundbars
What reviewers say
Owners of the Q60A line generally like the picture for the size and the easy Tizen interface, and the solar remote gets frequent mention. The common complaints are weak black levels in dark rooms, limited brightness for HDR, and a 60Hz panel that caps console gaming.

Questions and answers
- Is the QN43Q60AA good for a bedroom?
- Yes. At 43 inches with a slim body and a bright-enough panel for typical rooms, it fits bedroom viewing well. Dark-room black levels are its weak point.
- Does it support 120Hz gaming?
- No. The panel is 60Hz, so it caps at 4K 60fps. It does have a game mode to reduce input lag, but it is not a set for high-frame-rate console play.
- Does it have local dimming?
- No. The backlight is edge-lit without full-array local dimming, which is why contrast in dark scenes trails Samsung's QN90 models.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, a stand, the SolarCell remote, a power cable and documentation. A wall mount is not included.
- Does it work with Samsung soundbars?
- Yes. It supports Q-Symphony, which plays TV and soundbar speakers together, and Object Tracking Sound Lite. It also has eARC on one HDMI port.
- Is it worth it over a cheaper 4K TV?
- If you want QLED color and Samsung's smart platform in a small size, yes. If you mainly watch dark movies or game at high frame rates, a set with local dimming or a 120Hz panel is a better fit.
