Our Verdict

Samsung Q70/Q70T QLED

LG NANO90 2021

The LG NANO90 2021 is slightly better overall than the Samsung Q70/Q70T QLED, but they have different panel types. The LG has an IPS panel with wider viewing angles, while the Samsung has a VA panel with better contrast for improved black levels. The Samsung is better for watching HDR content because it displays a wider color gamut, and despite not having a local dimming feature, it has improved dark room performance. On the other hand, the LG is a better choice for watching shows or sports because it has much better reflection handling, and it has a much quicker response time for smoother motion.
