Manual of product GQ55Q8CNG
Editorial note
The Samsung GQ55Q8CNG television stands out for its exceptional picture quality, thanks to QLED technology and a 4K Ultra HD resolution. This combination offers an immersive visual experience, ideal for enjoying your favorite movies and series. Additionally, the modern and sleek design with a silver finish integrates harmoniously into various interior environments, adding a touch of sophistication to your space. However, this model has some drawbacks. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to streaming apps and the Internet, which can be disappointing for users seeking a complete multimedia experience. Furthermore, it does not support HDR technology or 3D compatibility, which could restrict entertainment options for certain types of content. The annual energy consumption of 187 kWh, while reasonable, is relatively high compared to other newer and more energy-efficient models. In terms of performance, the Samsung GQ55Q8CNG scores well, with excellent image rendering and advanced audio features, including a built-in subwoofer and Dolby Digital decoders for a rich sound experience. However, the weight of 17.8 kg (without the stand) can complicate its transport and installation. Overall, the value for money is satisfactory, but the limitations in connectivity and features may deter some buyers.Score details
