Our Verdict
Samsung Q60/Q60R QLED
Samsung Q60/Q60T QLED
The Samsung Q60/Q60R QLED is slightly better than the Samsung Q60/Q60T QLED. Although the Q60T has some improvements in terms of performance, some features that were on the Q60R have been removed, such as 24p judder reduction and variable refresh rate. However, the Q60T's contrast ratio is a bit better and it has much better uniformity, though response time is not as good as the Q60R.
