Thanks alot, I was having a tough time trying to decide which one of these tvs I should buy, but this video comparison really helped me decide which one of these tvs is best for me.Im going with the Q60a 75 inch. I already have the q80a 85 inch as well and I love it
I can't believe Steve actually reviewed the two TV's I've been comparing lately. A fluke I just happened to find on YT. Always love your informative reviews Steve and your honesty is impeccable.
@@TechSteve me too. the very 2...and God Steve said Buy QLED...and it was done. Im waiting on my being delivered. 65 inch. Wonder how good netflix is on it.
QLED has dual back lights to help out with the colors and brightness that’s need on HDR content. Keep in mouth at 1000 nits is standard and even the OLED in this range will not touch that but it will be better than most.
I’m so glad you made this video!!! I’ve been searching and no one has it. I’m literally between these two 😭 Thanks so much for this great video!!! You are literally the best out here for these reviews 🙌🏼
You sir deserve a damn Oscar for your professional side by side video. So informative and clear. Makes me so easy to make up my mind. I liked the 8000, but i think i'm going with the q60a, but the 55". Subbed for sure and keep on your amazing work. Greets and god bless. 🙋🏻♂️
im from Turkey. although there are so many guys and channels doing the same thing here, im watching this man's videos to get better information about tv models and comparisons. really good at what he's doing.
Thanks for making this video. Greatly appreciate the effort you did to compare the two. I bought the 70" AU8000. I feel for its price, it is a good model with good color and video production which I can easily live with. There will always be differences on generated test patterns. What ultimately matters is the variety of images that I view and I ask myself if I'm able to live with this or not. And u can happily to say that I can, Happily
For me it depends on the tv stand and how much weight it can support. the 60a is oujt of the quesiton as the stand is too wide so I bought a newer Samsung tv with a metal stand
Thanks, this is a really nice overview. I bought a Q60a earlier this month, and your assessment backs up the good experience I've been having. I might miss the absence of HDMI 2.1 and some of the other perks I could have had with a Q80a, but I'll keep the $1000 savings and enjoy that slim profile :)
@@jossymarmolina4766 Hi! This is our primary TV in a relatively small apartment. The sound is okay, but it can be a bit difficult to hear on quiet dialog or if the air conditioning is going on full! I would definitely say that a soundbar is a good call - in fact, that is what my girlfriend is getting me for Christmas :)
@@shatner99 I did indeed! I got a Sonos Beam (gen 2), and it's been a perfect compliment to the TV. Together, I've got all the sound and video quality I could want, and there hasn't been a single issue since we got them.
Thank you for this video. Ordered the 75 inch AU8000 yesterday, went and changed it for the 75 inch Q60A - mostly based on the dual backlight and processing power difference you shared. Thanks!
@@jossymarmolina4766 hello, I can’t comment on sound (sorry) because I am already running a home theatre system since before :) TV is a upgrade for us as my last TV was bought in 2013 - we are enjoying it :)
Thanks for the info. These are the exact 2 we were looking at in Best Buy. To our eyes, the AU8000 looked great. The Q series was super bright and way too detailed... at least for us. It almost hurt our eyes. Q series is definitely crisp and bright, but the colors were way too much. They didn't look natural to us. AU8000 with surround sound, we're good! Thanks.
What are the odds! The two TVs I was eyeing and u have a comparison. Thank you so much for the proffesional video! Deff going with the QLED. Much love from Sweden ❤️
@@edde3244 Ja körde med Q60A :D! Although if u dont have a soundboard it wont sound so good :( Idk if its just me but it sounds just a little off, nothing too crazy tho.
Isso que é uma comparação! Até que enfim algo de qualidade e não baseado apenas nos dados que nós mesmos podemos ver no site da samsung. Isso aqui se trata de experiência, isso é o que buscamos de verdade 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Interestingly the warmer looking TV is what most film industries/artists intend their films to be viewed in. Colour and white levels are more accurate with a warmer panel. Most OLED and QLED TVs often have recommendation to change colour tones to warm or expert (even more warm). Dolby vision presets for example always gives the picture a warmer tone, you'll realize it makes the film more life like rather than artificially pretty.
Excellent video. I actually ordered the AU8000 yesterday on Amazon, then started second guessing myself with the Q60A. I stumbled on this video and it convinced me to cancel by Amazon order for the AU8000 and switch it up to the Q60A. Your video does an excellent job of comparing and contrasting the two sets. Thank you!!!
@Rob The side-by-side images in Tech Steve's video, plus his comment multiple times that if you have the money the q60a is the better set. The comments about the brightness and trueness of color. The q60a also has some more advanced features on the interface. I also thought about it this way: a TV lasts 10 years, and you watch it on average 3 hours a day (your mileage may differ) that's about 11,000 hours of total viewing time. So the $280 is an additional $28 per year, or about 2.5 cents per viewing hour. Adding all that up it seemed worth it to me to play it safe and just shell out a few more bucks.
The issue with the Q60A is it’s priced the same as the Sony x85j. X85j is 120 hz and has hdmi 2.1. They’re fairly similar in picture. Samsung seems to be in its own price category this year.
I have been in bestBuy store to get a TV, I was struggling to make a good choice, I definitely get a 50’’ QLED 60A, but after that I was think to go back change and save some money on it, but this video provided me a good idea on what I have and I decided to keep it. Thanks 🙏
Hello Steve. If you observed I have been asking a lot of questions. I have good news. I bought this TV and your videos on the Samsung AU8000 was amazingly super helpful. Thanks!!!?
I found this very helpful. I have decided to go with the AU8000 which I have purchased. Being a pensioner and NOT a gamer there is no need for additional specs. TV used for entertainment only and I use a Amazon Fire Stick 4K plus in preference to tv apps. Linked up to a Yamaha sound bar with additional sub woofer. Set up suits and is %100 better than my old Samsung tv which I have had for over 10 years. Hopefully this one will last as long. Only thing Samsung should include is programme sort for tv channels.
Hey Steve really enjoyed your video as its the first time i've come across you - i am in Australia . . . really concise and easy to understand comparisions especially when you are choosing between 2 similar products and i am a tech head but still need simple breakdowns of technical info manufacturers put into their products - especially TV's : its already made me only ever look at the Q Series as ive already got 75" Q70 + 65" Q70 - keep it up and thanks ! Oh and the 75" is connect to Sonos Arc + Play 5 x 2 + Sub + Play 1 x 2 . . . amazing system !
Thank you so much! I'm buying a TV for the first time in 10 years. I'm looking at 75 in in Samsung and LG and I was completely confused about models. I've watched a couple of your videos and this one in particular was just so informative, helpful and unbiased. It's making it easy for me to choose a model to buy now. Much appreciated. Peace! from Western Australia :)
You just helped me by my next TV the Sony x80 j that was a great awesome review and I appreciate it and appreciate your time for giving us the world the reviews on these tech products
Good comparison, I actually bought the q60a but actually regret it. It just make everything in the dark too dark and no detail so I prefer the Crystal UHD. Iv made the settings the brightest u can make it and still it's shows no detail in dark images. I actually revert back to my 10yr old HD TV
After watching your AU8000 unboxing video (part-1) video.....Yesterday I bought AU8000 43" for Rupees 51500/- (including GST tax) love from INDIA🇮🇳 brother.... By your new subscriber.... explain about Ambient mode also
Hey guys, could you share your experience with the Q60b. I got an AU9000 but returned it because the sound quality was awful . Deciding between the Bu8000 and Q60B now
Bought a Q60A (your other videos being quite important in that decision) and love it, the only thing I don't like about it is that my 43 LG 4ktv that I swore was "just fine" now looks like crap, and that's coming from my much less fastidious (for AV) wife, so I guess I'll keep looking at your channel to see what new stuff comes up until black friday.
Sony has issues as well, like changing pictures profiles automatically or some model you can’t connect your own Bluetooth headphones. Nothing is perfect, also the android os on some models will not program to external devices like Samsung
@@TechSteve I'm going to buy Qled q60A... I have in my room CX Oled LG 55 inchs, I need a bigger one for my living room....I really appreciated yours advices about it...thanks again... 🙏🙏🙏👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
love you’re videos i was deciding between these two went to Best Buy & fell in love with the picture of the 60A but wanted to do more research before after watching all your videos on the 60A I’m definitely going with that one
Thanks, this helped me decide on the Q60 due to color (using as a secondary monitor). Already have a QLED and considered the Crystal but the colors on the QLED did it for me.
They are too close far as tech, it would be redundant to create that video. It better to just look at specs. Since 2022 is coming up soon I have 11 TVs to film more videos on before I transition to more.
@@TechSteve Ah I see. So if I did buy a Q70A I wouldn't really notice that much of a difference? Like not that much better picture or colors? Anyways, good luck with the other TVs you review, can't wait to see what they are!
The specs sheet will tell you most of what you need to know, I buy all the TVs so I always buy the smaller starter models, reality that’s what your average joe can afford and that my niche.
@@TechSteve yeah, I understand that. I'm one of those average Joes actually. I just sometimes like looking at the step up models even if I can't afford them.
Man I personally prefer the 43" models, I don't know why South African markets only start at a 50" the pixel density is always better IMO when the screen is smaller... it always looks sharper. A great review as always.
Dude that is so true ! I just sold my tu7000 50 inch and I got a tu7000 70 inch and a qled 70 inch q60a and I feel the smaller tv was much brighter and better then these two.
All I Gotta say is thank you For making these videos and share your knowledge. I bought a LG nanocell 90 86” A week ago after I saw the comparison of both TVs I decide to go for the Samsung so I’m going to take it back and change it for the Samsung Q60a 85”. I like more brightness and Samsung does in all the TV screen and it has better colors Even if I have to pay more I’ll go for the Samsung I hope I don’t have any problem to make an exchange at Best Buy.
What a fantastic and very useful video. Just got a great deal on the 50” Q60A for £374 and this comparison was just what I needed to see as I was looking at the non qled models too
These videos are so helpful right now. Have been on the market for a bee television and all of these samsung models are confusing. Can we have a video explaining all of the different models from each brand?
Perfect review. Wish i found this a month ago. I'd of orderd the q6A for sure. I ended up getting a 75 au8000 its not bad but i want a q6a now. I also got a 85 7100 and my god thats the worst tv ive ever bought. Hoping samsung can give me some kind of trade in deal and i'd get the q6a
What a wonderful comparison video. 10/10. The TVs both look good but have to admit the Q60A is better. Better contrast, colour tones etc. That would be my preference.
hi Steve. been following your reviews. thanks for the great reviews. can you please make review video for Samsung Q65A? thanks. comparison with other samsunv qled series is also welcome 😊
I think they are both really good for their price points. The Q60A looks amazing, but I wouldn't feel short changed on a AU8000 if I didn't have the funds to spend more. We brought the AU9000 for the lounge last week, it's clearly a very capable TV, but we didn't mind sacrificing the extras, as it's generally used for the kids playing Xbox Series S or 360 or for light entertainment. The home office/game room has a QN95 on the wall along with PS5 and Xbox Series X which we really wanted the extra function such as VRR and 120HZ. Overall, there's no regrets from us, just depends on your budget and what you are willing to pay. Good video Steve, thank you!
So glad I saw this review! I have been looking at these two and had pretty much decided on the Q60A. This review has settled my decision. Costco here I come!
Hi there! How do you like the Q60A? I bought one last week, and I'm wondering if I got a dud. Picture is OK, but I expected better. But the sound is awful. Very tinny and hard on the ears even at a low volume.
@@posh8973 My new Q60 replaced a much smaller Samsung in the bedroom. I am very pleased with it so far. It is watched mostly in the evenings and night. I find the picture great and the sound is also so much better than my old one. Sorry that you are not pleased with yours. You can watch a few UA-cam videos on setting it up. However, most of the vids recommend setting the picture on Movie mode. I prefer dynamic.
I've seen a few AU8000s and AU9000 and they all had terrible clouding on dark scenes like movie credits or intro. Did you see this during your tests including on the Q60a?
While the Q60A looks better than the AU8000, it is a less significant step-up in visual compared to going from TU8000 to AU8000, IMO. For the basic user, the AU8000 looks to be the best value entry-level TV. Everything else above it looks to be paying a lot more for a bit more improvement in visuals.
Hi Tech Steve. To have to start doing reviews on larger screens not these smaller screens. Because of you I purchased the 65in Q60A and happy with it. Then I went out to get the 75 inch Q60A and it was so bad I packed it up and rook it back to the screen. There was such a noticable difference is n picture quality from the 65 to 75 it was not the same TV. The smaller the better the picture. You have to do 55 and above. Not these little TVs with a perfect picture.
@@redskull8033 I havn’t had them next to each other i bought it online.. colour rendering I’m sure it is better than au8000 as I watched 4K movies in different setting and Standard is good enough but Dynamic is even better.. it is £100+ more than au8000 and it has the wireless pc streaming like q60a
@@al3abqari I bought the AU9000. Terrible clouding on the screen visible on dark screens like movie or TV credits. I've had to return and have upgraded to the Q65a which I hope will be better quality.
@@phar2010 sorry to hear that about the au9000.. i’ve seen the colour rendering number for au9000 & Q65a it is almost double so things off for a good start.. i hope you enjoy it
Steve, love your reviews. I purchased 3 Q60A TV’s but unfortunately 2 of 3 have small screen defects. One a 32” has a grey spot about the size of a small grain of rice another, a 65” has a similar spot and also a small thin black line about 1/16” long. Have you ever seen these type of issues on Q60, other Samsungs or new TV’s in general?
@@TechSteve Thanks for your reply! I’m exchanging the two units in hopes of getting ones with no defects as I like this model otherwise because of it’s minimalist design, brightness and good colors!
My 43 AU8000 have AV input (red and white and yellow) , and it have a satellite antenna input too,as well as normal antenna, also it has ambient mode and pc on tv, its region is egypt. also the indicator stickers on the back are white and not black like these ones in the video.🙌❤️❤️

Thanks for the video. I was going to buy the 8000 Series but went with the Q60A based on your review.
Great job man! Thanks. +1 viewer from Brazil
Thank you. I was confused between these two models. You helped me to make my decision.
You’re welcome 👍🏽
Bought a Q60A (your other videos being quite important in that decision) and love it, the only thing I don't like about it is that my 43 LG 4ktv that I swore was "just fine" now looks like crap, and that's coming from my much less fastidious (for AV) wife, so I guess I'll keep looking at your channel to see what new stuff comes up until black friday.
It’s not the TV, you have up upgrade your sources. I would start using apps if you have set-top box. ua-cam.com/video/4axmVlawdhw/v-deo.html
Sony has issues as well, like changing pictures profiles automatically or some model you can’t connect your own Bluetooth headphones. Nothing is perfect, also the android os on some models will not program to external devices like Samsung
I'm from Brazil, and this is the video comparation, I was waiting for to decide which model to buy....thank youuuuuuuu
You’re welcome
@@TechSteve I'm going to buy Qled q60A... I have in my room CX Oled LG 55 inchs, I need a bigger one for my living room....I really appreciated yours advices about it...thanks again... 🙏🙏🙏👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Nice video helped me a lot just ordered a 55' Q60A 👌
You’re welcome
love you’re videos i was deciding between these two went to Best Buy & fell in love with the picture of the 60A but wanted to do more research before after watching all your videos on the 60A I’m definitely going with that one
Thanks, this helped me decide on the Q60 due to color (using as a secondary monitor). Already have a QLED and considered the Crystal but the colors on the QLED did it for me.
You’re welcome
Love watching your videos, I learn so much about TVs from you! I'd love to see a comparison between the Q70A and Q60A at some point.
They are too close far as tech, it would be redundant to create that video. It better to just look at specs. Since 2022 is coming up soon I have 11 TVs to film more videos on before I transition to more.
@@TechSteve Ah I see. So if I did buy a Q70A I wouldn't really notice that much of a difference? Like not that much better picture or colors? Anyways, good luck with the other TVs you review, can't wait to see what they are!
The specs sheet will tell you most of what you need to know, I buy all the TVs so I always buy the smaller starter models, reality that’s what your average joe can afford and that my niche.
@@TechSteve yeah, I understand that. I'm one of those average Joes actually. I just sometimes like looking at the step up models even if I can't afford them.
Why during the boxer scene 8:18 the Samsung Q60A look bad? Camera glitch? Supposedly it has better processing power than the au8000
Hi just because of same problem i returned my tv back.
That 2017 throwback was delightful to see :D
I’m very interested in the Q60A because there’s an 32” model I can use as an PC/Gaming monitor with eARC/digital out to my surround speaker bar set.
Perfect ! I’m down to the Q60A, Sony X8OJ and the LG UP8000 to use as my computer monitor
Man I personally prefer the 43" models, I don't know why South African markets only start at a 50" the pixel density is always better IMO when the screen is smaller... it always looks sharper. A great review as always.
Thanks
Dude that is so true ! I just sold my tu7000 50 inch and I got a tu7000 70 inch and a qled 70 inch q60a and I feel the smaller tv was much brighter and better then these two.
@@stephenbess9517did the TU7000 50inch looked as good as your smaller TVs ?
Thank you for this video! It really helped me decide on which tv to get.
You’re welcome
Thank you for this comparison it helps me greatly!
You’re welcome
Thank u love ur channel please keep it up
Good reviews tech Steve 👍🏾👊🏾
Thanks Eugene 👊🏽
Another great review that has helped me make my decision. Thanks!
You’re welcome
For edge lit sets both are doing a pretty good job with not showing much blooming at all
All I Gotta say is thank you For making these videos and share your knowledge. I bought a LG nanocell 90 86” A week ago after I saw the comparison of both TVs I decide to go for the Samsung so I’m going to take it back and change it for the Samsung Q60a 85”. I like more brightness and Samsung does in all the TV screen and it has better colors Even if I have to pay more I’ll go for the Samsung I hope I don’t have any problem to make an exchange at Best Buy.
What a fantastic and very useful video. Just got a great deal on the 50” Q60A for £374 and this comparison was just what I needed to see as I was looking at the non qled models too
Thanks and you’re welcome
Holy smokes, where did you see this deal??
@@Oludefender it’s a retailer called rgb direct in the UK 👍🏻
Thank you, this vid really helped us make a decision on which TV to buy
You’re welcome
What an awesome review and what an even more awesome reviewer.
Thanks Yasser
These videos are so helpful right now. Have been on the market for a bee television and all of these samsung models are confusing. Can we have a video explaining all of the different models from each brand?
Start off here, try not to over over think it.

Perfect review. Wish i found this a month ago. I'd of orderd the q6A for sure. I ended up getting a 75 au8000 its not bad but i want a q6a now. I also got a 85 7100 and my god thats the worst tv ive ever bought. Hoping samsung can give me some kind of trade in deal and i'd get the q6a
Sorry you wasn’t happy with your purchase, you will get the one you really want next time
q60b is on the way.
I’m working on that video this week Q60B
@@TechSteve Thanks, much-anticipated.
I exchanged my AU8000 for the Q60A because of you thanks G. 🙏
why?
awesome tech vids! thx you so much buddy
What a wonderful comparison video. 10/10. The TVs both look good but have to admit the Q60A is better. Better contrast, colour tones etc. That would be my preference.
Loved the review Steve! Put an order for Q60A after looking at your review~
Congratulations
Hi..! What's your tv doing ..? What about the sound is ok or do i need a soundbar for it ..?
Steve your my guy when I need to check anything out! I love your show!
Thanks you 🤜🏽
I’d like to see a comparison with the Sony x85j/89j with one of these, the Sony is the only 43 inch I know had 4K 120hz. Great work✌🏼
This is very helpful to me. I am subscriber to your channel
Thanks
hi Steve. been following your reviews. thanks for the great reviews. can you please make review video for Samsung Q65A? thanks. comparison with other samsunv qled series is also welcome 😊
Please follow my community page for model that I have.
Helpful and good video. Thx! :)
You are TvsGod. Exactly what I was looking for. All the best from Romania.
Lol, thanks 🙏🏽
@@TechSteve You welcome. 👏
Amazing channel and review
Great review!
I’m in Australia and thinking about buying one of the Tv’s.
Your video helped me a lot.
Awesome
Beautiful Comparison , Thank you
Very good. I ordered the au8000 and arrives today. I’m not even going to take it out of the box. Getting the Sony x85j leftover.
damn, i like your comparison review. this is the best channel review I have seen so far.
Thanks 🙏🏽
I think they are both really good for their price points. The Q60A looks amazing, but I wouldn't feel short changed on a AU8000 if I didn't have the funds to spend more.
We brought the AU9000 for the lounge last week, it's clearly a very capable TV, but we didn't mind sacrificing the extras, as it's generally used for the kids playing Xbox Series S or 360 or for light entertainment. The home office/game room has a QN95 on the wall along with PS5 and Xbox Series X which we really wanted the extra function such as VRR and 120HZ. Overall, there's no regrets from us, just depends on your budget and what you are willing to pay. Good video Steve, thank you!
You've managed to make a TV review so wholesome somehow :) Also, really clear and helpful review!
Thanks Chelsey, I really appreciate that
So glad I saw this review! I have been looking at these two and had pretty much decided on the Q60A. This review has settled my decision. Costco here I come!
Hi there! How do you like the Q60A? I bought one last week, and I'm wondering if I got a dud. Picture is OK, but I expected better. But the sound is awful. Very tinny and hard on the ears even at a low volume.
@@posh8973 My new Q60 replaced a much smaller Samsung in the bedroom. I am very pleased with it so far. It is watched mostly in the evenings and night. I find the picture great and the sound is also so much better than my old one. Sorry that you are not pleased with yours. You can watch a few UA-cam videos on setting it up. However, most of the vids recommend setting the picture on Movie mode. I prefer dynamic.
@@thebettin Thanks!
This was really great! Thank you!
You’re welcome
I've seen a few AU8000s and AU9000 and they all had terrible clouding on dark scenes like movie credits or intro. Did you see this during your tests including on the Q60a?
Helpful thanks man
While the Q60A looks better than the AU8000, it is a less significant step-up in visual compared to going from TU8000 to AU8000, IMO. For the basic user, the AU8000 looks to be the best value entry-level TV. Everything else above it looks to be paying a lot more for a bit more improvement in visuals.
Always purchase what works for you.
love the reviews, would be great to see q60a vs LG A1!
I don’t have the A1
Hi Tech Steve. To have to start doing reviews on larger screens not these smaller screens. Because of you I purchased the 65in Q60A and happy with it. Then I went out to get the 75 inch Q60A and it was so bad I packed it up and rook it back to the screen. There was such a noticable difference is n picture quality from the 65 to 75 it was not the same TV. The smaller the better the picture. You have to do 55 and above. Not these little TVs with a perfect picture.
If you pay for them, i buy these tvs with my own money
Thank you for this review. Which one will last longer please (shelf life) ? Thanks
I wouldn’t know the answer to shelf life
I have AU9000.. most of the Q60A features are there and I use it as laptop monitor with minimum brightness it’s great
@@redskull8033
I havn’t had them next to each other i bought it online.. colour rendering I’m sure it is better than au8000 as I watched 4K movies in different setting and Standard is good enough but Dynamic is even better.. it is £100+ more than au8000 and it has the wireless pc streaming like q60a
@@al3abqari I bought the AU9000. Terrible clouding on the screen visible on dark screens like movie or TV credits. I've had to return and have upgraded to the Q65a which I hope will be better quality.
@@phar2010 sorry to hear that about the au9000.. i’ve seen the colour rendering number for au9000 & Q65a it is almost double so things off for a good start.. i hope you enjoy it
@conor mcgregor much higher brightness and better brightness uniformity.
Steve, love your reviews. I purchased 3 Q60A TV’s but unfortunately 2 of 3 have small screen defects. One a 32” has a grey spot about the size of a small grain of rice another, a 65” has a similar spot and also a small thin black line about 1/16” long. Have you ever seen these type of issues on Q60, other Samsungs or new TV’s in general?
I haven’t but the electric market is all over the place with COVID, quality control is all over the place right now
@@TechSteve Thanks for your reply!
I’m exchanging the two units in hopes of getting ones with no defects as I like this model otherwise because of it’s minimalist design, brightness and good colors!
great work. thanks
My 43 AU8000 have AV input (red and white and yellow) , and it have a satellite antenna input too,as well as normal antenna, also it has ambient mode and pc on tv, its region is egypt. also the indicator stickers on the back are white and not black like these ones in the video.🙌❤️❤️
Thanks from Brasil!
