Samsung 65" QLED QEF1 4K, Q4 AI Processor, Knox Security, 100% Colour Volume with Quantum Dot, Endless Free Content, Samsung Vision AI Smart TV, 2025

Bought this TV to replace our 10 year old LG which was getting a bit slow. Mostly really easy to set up, but it took a bit of digging to work out how to scan for Freesat / Freeview channels. Once that was out of the way though, very happy with it. The picture is great, nice, bright and sharp and the 4k AI upscaling is very impressive - basically makes non-HD channels look like HD which is nice! Despite what some online reviews say, the sound is fine, good in fact. I've seen a few reviews that seem to compare this to a high-end TV, which seems a bit unfair as the Q7FA isn't that. I'm not a serious gamer, I'm not bothered about turning my living room into a bone fide cinema and I don't want to spend over a grand on a TV... If you want a truly high-end TV experience you'd better get your hand in your pocket, but if you want a perfectly nice telly for a very reasonable price, you won't go far wrong with this one. Exceptional value!

We’ve stuck with Samsung TVs for years — mainly for the quality and reliability — and this 65” QLED has been a fantastic upgrade for our family. We were replacing a well-loved but aging TV (over a decade old), and the difference is night and day. Setup was a breeze — we’re running this with a Sonos Beam, Sub, and two Play:1s for surround sound, and everything just worked straight away. With our old TV we always had minor issues with audio syncing or switching sources, but this time the setup was smooth and stayed stable. The picture is excellent — rich colours, crisp detail, and much brighter than our previous TV. Even standard-definition programmes look better thanks to the built-in AI upscaling. 4K and HDR content really pops, and the larger screen size has made a real difference for movie nights. We also have a Fire TV Cube, but honestly, it feels a bit redundant now. The built-in Samsung interface is snappy and includes all the main streaming apps we use (Netflix, Disney+, Prime, etc). Unless you need something really specific, the native smart system does the job well. We use it for a bit of everything — films, kids’ shows, the odd game console — and it handles all of it with no fuss. Pros: •Fantastic picture, especially for 4K and HDR content •Easy integration with our Sonos system •Built-in apps and Samsung smart hub are fast and full-featured •Reliable brand we trust (and it shows) Minor cons: •Not quite the top-tier gaming specs (no 120Hz or full HDMI 2.1), but still fine for casual use. It’s not been an issue for us at all. Overall, this has been a great buy. If you’re ready for a proper upgrade and want something that just works, this is a solid choice. No regrets!

I’ve had the TV 5 days and so far it seems good. The picture is excellent and the found is good with the TV speakers. It has a lot of apps, which might be great for some people, but personally I find most quite pointless. I haven’t found ‘navigating’ the TV very easy; it’s not as straightforward as I would like. I play a lot of games on XBox & it links fine with the TV, which also has built in games you can play without a console. The main issue I found there is that you can’t use the same Xbox controller for the TV & XBox, you need a controller for each. The remote is not good as far as I’m concerned; it is too small (I know this might be a plus for some) & I find it difficult to handle. One thing I find really annoying is that when you mute sound the ‘mute’ icon comes on the screen & flashes & it stays on screen! I don’t know if this is a glitch or intentional but it’s not good. So I have to turn volume all the way down rather than just hit mute. Overall I love the picture & sound quality; the TV looks very nice & is quite light; it has many features but not sure I want or need most of them; the price was good too. I would recommend this TV & maybe after more time I’ll work out how to do everything🙂

Really happy with this TV so far. Got it as another one we got (different brand) didn't perform as we expected, and this Samsung has exceeded our expectations. Perfect video, perfect colors, good sound for a TV. Only thing that could improve is Alexa, takes too long to react to button click, sometimes it doesn't react. hope it's software related. Otherwise, good quality. Legs are easy to install, no screws, just put in place and strongly slice until they click in place. It has 2 remotes, a normal TV one and the smaller smart TV style remote, which we love as we can have one on each side, if not can also use the app.

No issues at all with the TV which is usual quality Samsung product. Be VERY aware though that purchasing this TV from Amazon, for a slightly cheaper price, rather than other retailers/Samsung direct means that you do not qualify for the widely advertised/promoted extended 5 year warranty from Samsung. Having been a very loyal customer and having spent multiple thousands of pounds with both Amazon and Samsung to date neither customer service departments were vaguely interested in honouring the 5 year guarantee. Samsung have a list of qualifying retailers that does not include Amazon for some unknown reason. I tried to ascertain where Amazon purchased the TV’s but they would not provide me with the details. Presuming that they purchased them from Samsung direct i tried to register the warrant with Samsung and as soon as they saw the purchase receipt was from Amazon they declined. This was a purchase for my elderly mother made with the honest belief that it would qualify for a 5 years guarantee in order to give her peace of mind. After multiple phone calls the extent of the customer service assistance received was for Amazon to ask if i wanted to return the TV and Samsung to reject the extended warranty application, very poor!!!! I wont be buying any more Samsung product from either Amazon or Samsung on principle, not that this will affect either’s financial profits.

The picture pops like nothing else—crystal clear, vibrant colors that make movies feel real. Sound’s decent too, but I hooked up a bar for that extra boom. Setup was easy, no fuss.
