If you are looking for a new TV, I encourage you to read the test of the Samsung QE55Q80BAT model.In this article, I will try to present the profile of this device and see if it is really worth betting on this TV set.At the outset, I can confidently say - the Korean brand can create really visually attractive products.Samsung QE55Q80BAT also belongs to this group.First of all, the manufacturer focused on higher-class materials - we can find here, among others, metal accents.The base made of 4 mm steel sheet guarantees the stability of the structure.Of course, we also find very thin frames here, which is probably not a surprise to anyone.Their width is only 3 mm.The set also includes a small and handy remote control.It might seem that one of Samsung's flagship TVs will be equipped with a metal remote control, just like the stand, but here it is made of plastic.It is true that the remote control is light thanks to this, but it does not feel solid.Its most interesting element is the solar panel that allows you to charge the battery.Alternatively, we also find the USB-C port.The remote control is small and has no numeric keypad.It is worth adding that it has buttons for services such as Disney +, Prime Video and Netflix.Detailed information on the specifications of the device can be found on the manufacturer's website at this link.In the Samsung QE55Q80BAT model, the manufacturer used a QLED matrix with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels.This display is characterized by a high level of contrast and has a direct backlight, which here only works to the advantage of the device.Color reproduction largely depends on what image mode we set.The best setting seemed to be the "movie" mode, which covered the color palette very well.Nevertheless, the TV is very good at reproducing colors.A big plus here is the expanded color palette in materials using HDR technology.In this respect, it is one of the best TVs we can buy.Dark colors are very good in the case of the Samsung QE55Q80BAT, although it must be admitted that the TV of the South Korean manufacturer likes to lose details in dark scenes.It is worth noting, however, that this "problem" can be avoided by simply adjusting the settings.Samsung QE55Q80BAT is equipped with a matrix with a refreshing 120 Hz and this is its very big advantage.There is no fault with mapping the movement.The screen is perfect for watching sports events where dynamics plays a very important role.Watching matches is simply a pleasure here and I don't think I need to write anything else.Once again, however, I have to scold Samsung, and I also did it for the Samsung Neo QLED QN91A test.There was no support for Dolby Vision technology, which would further raise the level of this device.However, it is worth mentioning the possibility of controlling the TV using a smartphone using the SmartThings application.Also read: Samsung Neo QLED QN91A - great whatever the conditionsSamsung QE55Q80BAT also has a game mode that allows you to change the audio output or change the input lag settings, among other things.Unfortunately, I could not check all the gaming capabilities of the TV, because I only have a PlayStation 4, the possibilities of which are limited.Samsung QE55Q80BAT is equipped with two wide-range drivers, which are placed in the lower part of the housing.It just means that the sound is directed downwards.The manufacturer did not give us too many options to change the sound settings, because in the settings we can only set the standard or amplification mode.It all depends on the user, but the latter seems to be the better option.The overall assessment is very positive.The Samsung QE55Q80BAT speakers are characterized by good bass, the sound is clear and clear, although sometimes the dialogues were overshadowed by the bass.It is worth noting that the equalizer is only available in the standard mode.The only "but" is the lack of a headphone connector, which means that if you have headphones equipped with a 3.5 mm jack connector, the only way is to connect them via a Bluetooth transmitter.In the case of external speakers, I suggest connecting with an optical cable.The Samsung QE55Q80BAT TV runs on the Tizen 2020 operating system, which introduced some changes.The changes, however, are more cosmetic.First of all, the menu is no longer white, but blue, although it is possible to change it to black.The shape of the icons and the nomenclature of individual functions have also been changed.Some of them were also located in other places.It is the operation of the Tizen system on the Samsung QE55Q80BAT TV that I have the biggest reservations about.I am sure that these errors can be eliminated with the update (which appeared during testing).The system did not run as smoothly as in the case of the Samsung Neo QLED QN91A TV I tested earlier.First of all, there was the suspension of streaming services' applications, and the only way out of them was to turn off the TV.Moreover, in the case of the Neo QLED QN91A model, the system was ready for action after turning on the TV and reacted immediately.In the QE55Q80BAT model, he often needed a few seconds to think.Nevertheless, Samsung QE55Q80BAT has a very powerful and pleasant operating system, which is above all very easy to use.We can install the most popular streaming applications on the TV, such as HBO Max, Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, Disney + or even Polsat Box Go.However, I was surprised by the fact that the store did not have the TVP Sport application that I could install on the previously tested TV.So if you would like to watch a sporting event that is broadcast on one of the TVP programs, the only choice is a web browser that can handle it very well.Of course, we can connect a USB flash drive to the TV.The tested model was equipped with DVB-C, DVB-S / S2, DVB-T / T2 tuners, four HDMI ports, two USB, Ethernet and optical.On board we will also find support for Apple AirPlay technology, which allows for wireless streaming of content from the screen of the American company's devices.Is this a review?No YesSave my name, email address and website in this browser for the next time I comment.MenWorld.pl is a lifestyle magazine for men.On the pages of our website you can read articles that should be of interest to every guy.Editors create texts about business, automotive, travel, fashion, new technologies, sport and culture.© 2015 -
