Samsung QN80F QN55QN80FAFXZA 55"
Mini LED backlighting paired with the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor produces crisp upscaled 4K at a 144Hz refresh rate. Built-in up-firing 4-channel speakers deliver room-filling Dolby Atmos sound without a separate soundbar, while dual HDMI 2.1 ports support low-latency 120Hz gaming. Ideal for gamers and cinephiles who want a single 55-inch display that handles fast motion smoothly and fills a room with three-dimensional audio.
