The LG NANO75 is generally less expensive than the Samsung Q60C. If budget is a key concern and you mainly watch various types of content, the LG NANO75 is a suitable choice.
However, if you are looking for overall better image quality, particularly in darker environments, and can afford to spend a little more, the Samsung Q60C would be the better option. Its performance in a bright room is also slightly better than the LG NANO75.
Those who prioritize watching sports and streaming content like news, talk shows, reality TV, and animation will find that the Samsung Q60C performs better in these areas compared to the LG NANO75. But for gamers, the difference in gaming performance between the two TVs is minimal.
Both TVs have similar input lag, making them responsive for gaming, but the contrast is better on the Samsung Q60C, which means you'll get deeper blacks. Neither TV is particularly strong in sound quality, so consider a separate sound system for either choice. Additionally, both have similar accessibility features, but the Samsung Q60C offers voice command capabilities, which the LG NANO75 does not. Give Feedback

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) is good for cartoons & animation, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The Samsung Q60C is better for watching cartoons and animation because it has a higher color gamut and color volume, which means it can display a wider range of colors more accurately. Conversely, the LG NANO75 has a fair color gamut and poor color volume, leading to less vibrant and less varied color reproduction, which is less ideal for animated content where color performance is very important.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV, though the Samsung Q60C (LCD) is somewhat better.
The LG NANO75 delivers fair upscaling quality and has a somewhat limited SDR brightness, which means while it can make lower resolution content look decent, it's not the best for very bright rooms; its color performance out of the box and color gamut are suitable for standard TV watching but lack local dimming for deeper contrast. In contrast, the Samsung Q60C offers good SDR brightness, enhancing visibility in well-lit environments, and has better upscaling capabilities, alongside a more robust color gamut, making it suitable for vibrant news and talk shows, though its local dimming feature is also not ideal for achieving the best contrast.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) is only fair for bright room, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The LG NANO75 is less suitable for bright rooms due to its poor SDR and HDR brightness and although it handles reflections well, it may still appear dim under intense light. Conversely, the Samsung Q60C performs better in this setting with decent SDR brightness and fair reflection handling, yet it might still struggle with HDR content brightness in very bright environments.
Although they have very similar scores, PerfectRec considers Samsung Q60C (LCD) to have only fair picture quality, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) has poor picture quality.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The LG NANO75 is not ideal for movies and cinematic TV as it has a low contrast level and poor black uniformity, which can make dark scenes appear washed out, and it lacks local dimming to improve picture depth. Similarly, the Samsung Q60C also falls short in providing a cinematic experience due to its slightly better but still limited contrast, very poor black uniformity, and minimal local dimming capability that diminishes the overall quality of dark scenes.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and Samsung Q60C (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The LG NANO75 has slightly worse motion processing than the Samsung Q60C, which can be important when watching fast-paced sports. However, the LG offers better viewing angles, which may provide a more consistent image across the screen when watching with a group, while the Samsung has fewer reflections and better gray uniformity, making it more suitable for bright rooms.

The Samsung Q60C (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both poor for gaming.
The LG NANO75 has mediocre response time and exceptional input lag, which may lead to some blurring during fast-paced games but will respond quickly to your input. The Samsung Q60C, on the other hand, has poor response time and exceptional input lag, meaning you'll experience more blurring with moving objects, but it still responds swiftly to gaming inputs.
