On the other hand, if you are looking for a less expensive option, the Samsung Q60B (LCD) offers midrange pricing. However, the Q60B's overall picture quality and gaming experience won't be as impressive as the S95C's, and it may not perform as well in very bright rooms. Give Feedback

CNET
David Katzmaier | June 2022
"Samsung's 2022 QLED workhorse shines in bright rooms and with HDR. The Samsung Q60B stands out from the slew of entry-level TVs with an ultra-thin frame, a skinny profile from the side and even narrow stand legs. The Q60B is a very good bright-room TV, and my subjective impression of its ample light output was proven by measurements."
