Let’s compare Samsung TVs with quantum dot screens, 2018 and 2019 Q6 series. On the example of TVs QN65Q60R (2019) and QN65Q6FN (2018). These TVs are from the quantum dot TV series and the Q6 series is the cheapest in the quantum dot TV line. We will make a comparison on the example of TVs produced for the North American market. Already for several years, Samsung has begun to produce TVs for the USA and Canada 1-2 months earlier than for other regions.

Differences between the QN65Q60R (2019) and QN65Q6FN (2018) TVs.

Consider the differences in technical specifications between the two televisions. The same parameters will not be considered.

  • Screen – TVs have a screen manufactured using quantum dot technology. (Improved brightness, contrast, as well as the quality of transmission of shades). In the QN65Q60R (2019) TV, the screen backlight is of the Ultra Slim Array (Edge), QN65Q6FN (2018) Edge-lit LED type. These are identical technologies just different names. TVs backlight placed on the side of the screen. Advantages, slightly less screen thickness. But dimming the screen can only be done in large areas.
  •  The colors of the screen, different names (100% Color Volume with Quantum Dot 2019 and Q color 2018), but it’s all the same. Just marketing to promote future sales.
  • HDR – (Quantum HDR 4x vs Q HDR) support for identical standards HDR10, HDR10 +, HLG. differences in name, marketing.
  • Graphics processor Neurocessor 2019 and Quad-core 2018. This is also marketing
  • Sound is the real difference in 2019 TVs. There is no subwoofer. The sound quality of the 2019 model is worse than the 2018 model. But this is only if you use the built-in speakers.
  • The operating system has been upgraded to version 5, Tizen 5.0.
  • The Q90R model supports Google Assistant and Alexa. In the 2018 Q9FN TVs this was not.
  •  AI Technology is artificial intelligence, software improvement is possible, but it is too early to speak about real artificial intelligence.
  • Of course the sizes of TVs are slightly different.
  • In models of 2019, a new remote control.
