If you're on a tight budget and primarily watch news, talk shows, or reality TV in a well-lit room, the Samsung N5200 is a pocket-friendly option, but be prepared for lower picture quality and limited gaming features. On the other hand, the Samsung Q60A is more expensive but offers better overall picture quality, making it a good choice for watching movies and sports. However, its poor gaming performance might be a drawback for gamers. If a brighter screen and better dark room viewing are important to you, the extra cost for the Q60A could be justified. Both have a 32-inch screen size, but the Q60A provides a 4K resolution and supports more HDR formats, improving the viewing experience for HDR content. Give Feedback

CNET
Geoffrey Morrison | June 2021
"The least expensive QLED is a solid choice for Samsung fans. Right out of the gate my eye was drawn to the Samsung. It is bright. The quantum dots let the Q60A produce far deeper, richer colors than the Vizio and TCL"
