Our take on the Samsung QN65Q60A 4K QLED Smart TV (2021)
The Samsung QN65Q60A is a 65-inch 4K QLED smart TV from Samsung's 2021 lineup. It uses a quantum-dot backlight for brighter color than plain LED sets, runs the Tizen smart platform with Netflix and other apps, and includes HDR support, built-in 2.0-channel audio, and a solar-rechargeable remote. It suits buyers who want a big, bright living-room screen for streaming and casual viewing without paying for mini-LED or OLED. Against step-up QLED models it gives up local dimming and wide viewing angles, so contrast in dark scenes and off-center seats are weaker.
- Quantum-dot QLED panel gives strong color and brightness
- Tizen smart platform with Netflix and major apps built in
- 4K resolution with HDR support
- Solar-rechargeable remote, no batteries to swap
- Slim profile and wall-mountable design

Questions and answers
- Is the QN65Q60A good for dark rooms?
- Not ideal. It has no local dimming, so blacks look gray and dark scenes lose detail. It performs better in bright rooms.
- Does it support 120Hz gaming?
- No. The panel is 60Hz and the HDMI ports are 2.0, so it tops out at 4K 60Hz. It is fine for casual console play but not for high-frame-rate gaming.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, a solar-rechargeable remote, a stand, and power and basic cables. A wall mount is not included.
- How does it compare with the Q70A?
- The Q70A adds a 120Hz panel and better motion handling. The Q60A is the cheaper step-down with the same QLED color but a 60Hz screen.
- Does it have Bluetooth or Wi-Fi?
- Yes. It has built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, plus Samsung's smart hub for streaming apps and phone screen mirroring.
- Can I mount it on a wall?
- Yes. It is wall-mountable and uses a standard VESA bracket, which is sold separately.
