Our take on the Samsung Smart TV 50" QLED 4K Q60A
The Samsung Q60A is a 50-inch 4K QLED smart TV from Samsung's 2021 lineup. It uses a quantum-dot LCD panel with edge backlighting, runs Samsung's Tizen smart platform, and includes the SolarCell remote that charges from indoor light. It suits buyers who want a bright, colorful midrange set for a living room or bedroom and use streaming apps heavily. Against rivals like the TCL 5-Series and Hisense U6G, it gives up full-array local dimming and Dolby Vision, so dark-scene contrast and HDR format support are weaker, but it handles reflections and off-angle color better than many budget sets.
- Quantum-dot panel gives strong color and good brightness

- SolarCell remote charges from light, no batteries
- Slim design with a clean back and tidy cable routing
- Good upscaling of HD cable and older content
- Four HDMI inputs, including one for 4K120 gaming

Questions and answers
- Is the Q60A good for dark rooms?
- Not its strength. Edge lighting produces grayish blacks and some light bleed in dark scenes, so a full-array set is better for a dark home theater.
- Does it support Dolby Vision?
- No. It handles HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG, but not Dolby Vision, so Dolby Vision content plays in a fallback format.
- Is it good for gaming?
- It has low input lag and a 4K120-capable HDMI port, but the panel refreshes at 60Hz, so it suits casual console play rather than competitive gaming.
- Do I need a soundbar?
- Most owners add one. The built-in speakers handle dialogue but have little bass and limited scale.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand, the SolarCell remote, a power cable and documentation. HDMI cables are not included.
- Does it work with Samsung phones?
- Yes. It supports screen mirroring, SmartThings control and Samsung's TV Plus features from Galaxy devices.
- What do buyers say about the Samsung Smart TV 50" QLED 4K Q60A?
- Rated 5 out of 5 from 66,495 ratings.
