Samsung GQ55Q80RGTXZG

55", QLED, 4K, 2019

Product details

Thanks to QLED technology, the Samsung GQ-55Q80R impresses with extremely realistic and brilliant color reproduction, where the Ultimate UHD Dimming function analyzes the running picture and automatically
adjusts brightness, sharpness and contrast in the best possible way. The 55-inch / 138-cm panel provides an UltraHD resolution (3,840 x 2,160 pixels) for razor-sharp images that are four times sharper than a conventional FullHD model. With the help of Q HDR, HDR10+ and HLG, the GQ-55Q80R offers an even larger color and contrast space, which makes the content even more lifelike. Additionally, more dynamic shadows and balanced whites are achieved, visually enhancing every scene. The SmartTV is not only compatible with voice assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant, it also has one of its own: Bixby can be activated on demand and allows you to activate numerous functions or settings with your own voice alone.Via WLAN, you can access Samsung's SmartTV portal, which has numerous applications such as video or audio on demand, web browsers and the like, but also makes it possible to stream content via mobile devices. The built-in triple tuner allows you to receive signals via cable, satellite or terrestrial antenna, and you can also record the current content manually or time-shifted at the same time via the twin triple tuner. So that all these functions can run without long waiting times, the GQ-55Q80R has a powerful Quantum processor 4K, which is also responsible for the 4K AI upscaling function to make any content look even sharper. The GQ-55Q80R features a 40W 4.1 channel sound system with Dolby Digital Plus technology, making what you see even more immersive. Especially dialogues are reproduced with absolute precision so that they are not lost even under the most action-packed scenes.
