help Samsung Q80A QLED FAQ

Does the Samsung Q80A support Dolby Vision?

No. Like Samsung's other 2021 televisions, the Q80A supports HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG but not Dolby Vision, despite some catalog descriptions claiming otherwise.

Is the Q80A a full-array TV or an edge-lit model?

The Q80A uses Direct Full Array backlighting with local dimming, although performance and panel characteristics can vary by screen size and region. It is a conventional QLED LCD rather than Samsung's later Mini LED Neo QLED technology.

Can the Samsung Q80A run 4K games at 120Hz?

The Q80A supports 4K at 120Hz on a compatible HDMI input, along with features such as variable refresh rate and Auto Low Latency Mode. That makes it suitable for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, although it does not provide a full bank of HDMI 2.1 inputs.

How is the Q80A different from the Samsung QN90A?

The Q80A uses full-array LED backlighting, while the higher-tier QN90A uses Mini LED-based Neo QLED backlighting. The QN90A can generally produce stronger highlights and tighter local dimming, especially in difficult HDR scenes.
