The very latestin Samsungs line of flagship QLED range TVs is the stunning QE75Q70AATXXU, availableat the best price in the UK courtesy ofElectronic World TV, the home of cheap tvs. Converted to Test Bench 1.10. With this update we've revamped our Gradient testing, added a new test for Low Quality Content Smoothing, and expanded our Audio Passthrough testing. Samsung has resisted the temptation to embrace HDMI 2.1, claiming the current 2.0b inputs do all that is needed of them. That might disappoint some, but the company claims the Q70 can handle 4K at up to 120Hz, dynamic metadata (HDR10+), variable refresh rate (VRR), and auto low latency mode (ALLM). The only thing missing is enhanced audio return channel (eARC), but Samsung says that will be coming via a software update by the end of the month.

We uploaded the brightness measurements and uniformity photos after running the TV for four months in our Accelerated Longevity Test. In name, the Samsung Q70T is the successor to the Samsung Q70R from 2019 but in terms of specifications, it’s actually more closely related to last year’s Q60R. The Q70T is available in numerous sizes, with 55in, 65in, 75in and 85in models on offer. Of those, the 85in is the only model to feature a two-legged stand design, whereas the others rest upon a central stand. Key features include: Quantum 4K Processor, Quantum HDR,HDMI 2.1 with Motion Xcelerator, Dual LED, 100% Colour Volume with Quantum Dot, Get ready to perform at your peak. Engineered for the most immersive and responsive experience, QLED makes super smooth, ultra crisp HDR gaming on a big screen a reality. And say goodbye to screen tearing and stuttering with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro.

To cap it all off, the design of this QE75Q70AATXXUQLED TV is second to none, with its super thin bezel and stunning looks. Film Mode, Natural Mode, Game Motion Plus, Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), Ambient Mode+, Filmmaker Mode We often use Gravity as a test for local dimming, because the star fields and bright white space suits are a real challenge. In general the Q70 handle this difficult material well, with very little haloing, blooming or clipping. However there were a couple of occasions where the local dimming was caught out, although with the less challenging content that was rarely an issue.

Experience incredible picture detail with vibrant colour in everything you watch – just as the directors intended. HDR10+ fine-tunes every scene and brings out every delicate detail, even in those dark shadows and bright highlights. You’ll finally see exactly what’s lurking in the shadows of that terrifying scene – and witness the true beauty within that sun-soaked beach. Adaptive brightness for brilliant viewing, even when the day turns to night. Your TV adjusts to your environment and automatically adapts brightness and contrast settings to give you a pristine 4K picture. Let your TV do the work for you, so you can relax and enjoy the content you love.We uploaded the initial brightness measurements and uniformity photos for the Accelerated Longevity Test. Since Bixby is actually built into the TV, rather than simply working with another device that includes a smart assistant, the experience is largely seamless. Bixby is best accessed by simply pressing the mic button on the remote. There is a near-field mic built into the TV but we’d recommend turning that off, unless you want Bixby springing into life every 10 minutes.

On the bright side, the Q70T is the cheapest of Samsung’s 2020 QLEDs to come with an HDMI 2.1 input – you only get one, however, and the remaining three are HDMI 2.0. With HDMI 2.1, the Q70R has Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and 4K 120Hz capabilities, two key gaming features supported by the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. Make everything you watch truly spectacular. With 100% Colour Volume, you’ll get the widest range of true-to-life colours – no matter what conditions you’re watching TV in. Quantum Dot display technology, unlike others, is able to transform light into breath-taking colour that'll look just as impressive ten years down the line. Moreover, the AI-enhanced image processing is equally as effective, helping to make heavily compressed and low resolution content look better and the local dimming is particularly impressive, especially given the limited number of zones available. Feed the TV a 4K signal, however, and the results are often excellent. The sound quality isn’t bad either, thanks once again to some sonic AI wizardry, and the 14ms input lag is sure to please gamers. Regardless of the material it was the detailed nature of the picture was readily apparent, with the AI-enhanced processing cleaning up more compressed content, and teasing every last pixel out of lower resolution material. The panel has plenty of brightness, and the colours are saturated but accurate, giving the images real pop. Samsung has tried to boost the sound quality of its TVs this year through the application of some machine learning. The result is the AI-enhanced Intelligent Sound mode that analyses the audio based on the environment and content, and the optimises it accordingly. As a result the sound has more width and depth, creating an acoustic experience that is more defined and immersive.

The Samsung Q70 produced some lovely HDR images... even if it isn’t as impressive as its more expensive siblings.
