Our Verdict

Sony X85J

Samsung Q60B [Q60, Q60BD] QLED

The Sony X85J is better overall than the Samsung Q60B QLED and has a few more features. The Sony is better for gaming because it has a 120Hz panel with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and VRR support, while the Samsung is limited to a 60Hz panel without HDMI 2.1 bandwidth or VRR support. The Sony also has better motion handling, but other than that, the picture quality between both TVs is very similar overall.
