    Samsung QE43Q60TAU

    A few years ago the diagonal screen of QLED TVs started at 50 inches. But now there’s also a 43″ model on sale, ready to fit in almost any “wall”. As you can easily guess, the display is able to boast of 4K resolution. Also any buyer will appreciate the high contrast. However, the depth of black here is still not as deep as in the larger models, which have a quality system of local dimming. And certainly the TV is inferior to its OLED counterparts. But they are more expensive and offer a much larger diagonal.

    Most of all Samsung QE43Q60TAU surprises by the thin frame of the screen. It seems that soon the South Korean manufacturer will get rid of the frame altogether. The refresh rate, increased to 100 Hz, arouses pleasant emotions. You can feel it very well when playing games or watching action scenes in movies. Also HDR10+ support that gives you a wider color gamut.

    Like many other modern televisions, this one has Smart TV functionality. The Tizen operating system has no problem accessing the Internet. You just need to connect to your home Wi-Fi network in advance. And it’s better to do it via a high-speed standard so that the bandwidth is enough even for online viewing of 4K content.

    Certainly, this model can be used for TV watching. It also supports terrestrial, cable and satellite standards. But you can see the highest quality picture only when watching movies and videos. They can be contained in an external hard drive (on the back there are two USB-connectors) or in some online cinema. You can also connect third-party equipment to your TV. Three HDMI sockets are grounded for this case.

    The picture here is accompanied by a good sound. But you shouldn’t expect anything supernatural from a 20-watt speaker. If you want deep bass and surround sound, it’s better to use a soundbar or home theater. You can also output the sound to wireless headphones, using the built-in Bluetooth-module.

    The TV comes with a One Remote. It’s tiny and supports voice commands.

    Advantages

    • Increased refresh rate of the screen;
    • The display is based on QLED technology;
    • Supports all digital TV standards;
    • There is a Smart TV;
    • Very thin framing of the screen;
    • A large number of connectors;
    • Bluetooth and Wi-Fi modules are built in;

    • The matrix is still not perfect;
    • Not the most powerful processor is built in.

    This 43″ TV differs from the others by its white color. Also it is impossible not to note the 4K resolution screen, thanks to which you will enjoy a high definition picture, especially when viewing high-quality content. IPS technology was used for the display, so you can count on maximum viewing angles. Do not just dream of a great depth of black. Alas, all IPS-panels have problems with it. And local dimming won’t help at this diagonal.

    Inside this model is a powerful quad-core processor. It is necessary for the stable work of WebOS. The operating system is required for online viewing of movies and videos from all sorts of “Kinopoisk HD”, Netf

    Of course, you can connect external equipment to LG 43UP76906LE as well. For this case there are two HDMI-sockets. Both are HDMI 2 compliant.0, which allows you to receive images in 4K resolution at 60 fps. This is the refresh rate has a display. If we continue talking about connectors, we can also mention the presence of a USB-port, which is usually used to connect a flash drive or an external hard drive. The manufacturer did not think about the headphone output. Or maybe the South Koreans just think that the built-in Bluetooth module, which can send the sound to any wireless headset, will be enough for many people.

    This model supports HDR10 Pro and HLG. Also it understands all standards of digital TV. Picture here is accompanied by a relatively good sound. But 20 watts may not seem like enough power to someone. Not to mention the fact that at this size TV can not boast of surround sound. In a word, it is not a simple thing that we have found a place for the optical audio output on the back panel of the device.

    Advantages

    • Not a bad speaker system;
    • Maximum viewing angles;
    • Displays a picture in 4K resolution;
    • Understands all digital TV standards;

Giving up Android allowed the manufacturer to achieve a smooth operation of the operating system – slowdowns are now almost never occur. And this interface is much better adapted for remote control. However, it is impossible not to admit that so far for SAPHI released an extremely limited number of applications. There is a chance that the client of your favorite online movie theater will not be here.

    Anyway, let’s not make a big deal out of it. This TV is well worth the money you spend on it. Let’s start with the fact that at least its screen is able to boast of 4K resolution. Support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision is great for gaming and watching movies. Nothing bad can be said about the viewing angles. And only the 60 Hz refresh rate is not striking. However, many Expertology readers are satisfied with this parameter.

    This model can be used to watch digital television. It understands all formats and has no problems even with DVB-S2 satellite. But it’s better to watch content contained in online movie theaters. However, there is one unpleasant thing awaits you in this respect. It is recommended to connect to the router through the appropriate cable. The thing is that the built-in Wi-Fi module only supports the 802 standard.11n, bandwidth may not be enough for stable playback of 4K video. As for the Bluetooth-module, it is absent at all. If you want to use headphones, you will have to use wired ones.

    It’s hard to complain about the number of connectors to this TV. Three HDMI sockets and a couple of USB ports are waiting for you. Who won’t find it enough?? There are also holes on the back for a wall bracket.

    Gamers are also choosing this TV. For example, a certain Boris left on “Yandex.For a long time I searched for a TV for PlayStation 4 PRO. Ended up with this model. The 10 bit matrix, the picture for an IPS screen is awesome, especially after adjusting.”.

However, in some cases, two 8-watt speakers will still seem a bit too little. In this case, there is an optical audio output. You can also output the sound to headphones, using the appropriate jack.

This model is able to play the contents of a USB-drive, but no more than that. Also on the back of the device are two HDMI connectors.
