Our favourite QLED TV, the 55-inch Samsung Q80T, is £220 off today

The 55-inch Samsung Q80T, our favourite non-OLED TV for 4K gaming, is available for £879 from Very today with code R37XN, compared to its street price of £1099. That’s the best price we’ve ever seen on this TV by a good £220, making it incredible value. The 65-inch model has also been discounted, dropping from £1499 to £1199, a reduction of £300.

The Q80T ticks all the boxes for next-gen gaming on PS5, Xbox Series X or PC. You get a 4K screen with 120Hz refresh rate, HDMI 2.1 support (including gaming features like VRR and ALLM), great contrast (4000:1), excellent colour accuracy and very low input lag (10ms at 60Hz, 5ms at 120Hz). As the Q80T uses a VA QLED panel, it’s also immune to the burn-in that can put some people off OLEDs. All in all, it’s a great set and our top non-OLED pick for gaming.

The Q80T sits at a good spot within Samsung’s lineup too, as it costs only a bit more than the Q70T but boasts better brightness, contrast and viewing angles thanks to its Full Array Local Dimming feature. The Q90T, the next model up, gets brighter still and handles gradients better, but this set costs significantly more and doesn’t have any new features compared to the Q80T.
