Our Verdict

Samsung RU8000

Samsung Q60/Q60T QLED

The Samsung RU8000 and the Samsung Q60/Q60T QLED are very similarly performing TVs. The Q60T has a slightly higher contrast ratio and a more accurate picture out of the box, although this can vary between units. The Q60T also gets brighter and has a slightly wider color gamut, delivering a more satisfying HDR experience. That said, the RU8000 is better for gaming since it has VRR support and a much faster response time.
