input lag probably lower with non-pc device
since you test with a pc you may have been prevented from getting the lowest lag. some Samsung tvs of this age have a bug that prevent game mode from working right when it detects a “pc” as the input source. Super annoying but probably not an issue for console gamers.

This TV does not have a “Peak Brightness” setting. How exactly are you setting it to “High” in your review ?

The Q600C can definitely pass through 4K HDR10 at 120hz very well. I don’t understand why you say it’s not supported. Picture and sound are great and it’s definitely 120hz. And eArc is HDMI 2.1 anyway. Also you said the audio sync is not good between TV and the HDMI in. It’s perfect on my TV and 4K Blu-ray player. I have one cable going to the TV and use the other cable going to the 4K player and the audio sync is perfect.
You are right. RTINGS is slowly loosing credibility with poor testing being done.

I took a look at the testufo.com test for frame skipping and our unit does not have any frame skipping at 165Hz. I took a picture at 1/10 shutter speed and a slo-mo video and no frame skipping on the unit we purchased.
Thank you, much appreciated ! Must be browser related or cable related then. Thanks a lot for the feedback :)

Can you please test the monitor for frame skipping at 165Hz ?
I’m doing some tests in testufo.com and it seems that it does frame skipping at 165 Hz (tried both 1/10th stutter speed photo and very slo-mo video).
At 144 Hz and lower i don’t see any frame skipping though, i’m kinda confused and worried :|

Hey there, Thanks for sharing this information with us. We’re going to try to have a look at this on our end as well, and we’ll be sure to update our review with the results. In the meantime though, this could also be helpful to other users or potential buyers, so we really appreciate it! :)
No problem. Sharing information is always good :) By the way, since a lot of people agree that 75Hz is way smoother than 60Hz, it could be a good idea to have an extra section about overclocking capability. This could be a standard section in your testing methodology, or perhaps just for the monitors with lower refresh rates, e.g 60Hz.
The way i see it is that, the lower the refresh rate is, the higher the perceived difference in smoothness it is after overclocking. That might be helpful for some people, especially the ones who would like to use the monitor for casual non-competitive gaming, along with productivity, content creation etc…
Of course, overclocking has always the risk of damaging the monitor… and while it’s unusual, i definitely understand why something like that could be problematic for reviews / testing.
It’s up to you, but oh well, just a thought :)
