In today's video we will make a comparison between the two cheapest MINI-LED technology televisions that Samsung launched in 2024 here in Brazil. It will be the QNX1D here on this side against the QN85D on this other side. And without beating around the bush, I'm going to start straight away by talking about image quality and in this sense, here we have two 4K resolution TVs that, as I said previously, are using MINI-LED technology.
And for those who don't know this technology, it works as follows: Inside these TVs we have several very small MINI-LEDs that can control the lighting zones independently and in this way these TVs can deliver to us a level of black and Very good contrast, as you can already see in these different images. And it's worth remembering that this is an especially important feature if you're going to use them in a darker environment. However, this does not mean that they are 100% perfect in terms of black level, because if you are a more detailed user you may be able to see a little of the blooming effect occurring in them.
And I even separated an image to show you this effect, but first I recommend that, if possible, you try to increase the brightness of the screen you are using to watch this video because this way it will be easier for you to see the blooming effect occurring. on these televisions. And if you could also take advantage of this moment in the video to leave a like below, we would really appreciate it, after all, we bought these two TVs with the channel's own money to bring this type of content, so your support is really fundamental for the continuation of our channel, so we count on the support of each of you.
But going back to the issue of the blooming effect, as you can see in this image, when we look at televisions from the front, it is very difficult to observe the blooming effect, however, when we look at a more lateral angle we can see this effect a little. For those who don't know, it is a brightening of light that surrounds brighter objects in dark background scenes and in the case of this image the blooming effect is occurring around the Leaves. However, I would say that in general the two do very well in relation to this issue.
So it should be enough to please most people. But despite both TVs doing well in terms of black level and blooming effect, did one of them manage to be better than the other in these matters? Personally speaking, I found the two to be extremely similar, but seeing it live here you could see that the QNX1D had a black level that was slightly better, so in some scenes this issue gave it a small advantage, almost as if the image was slightly more defined.
in it compared to QN85D. But honestly speaking, I should stress a lot about this because the two are really very similar and even if you are a more demanding user, it is very easy to go on the QN85D and change some settings to make the two equal in these matters. Still talking about image quality, what can we say about colors?
In this sense, both are using QLED technology, which is a technology that allows these TVs to deliver a greater number of colors to the screen, thus making the image more beautiful. And really, both televisions do very well in terms of colors and as you can see in these images, the colors of both TVs are very similar and in some scenes you could even feel a slight difference in their saturation, but in general nothing that I I found it very significant. And an important detail that I should mention here is that during the tests I left both televisions in film image mode and I did this because this image mode tries to provide us with color quality and a more natural and general image quality.
realistic and because of this issue I prioritized doing the tests in film mode. However, as I know that some people prefer to use the TV in the standard mode that comes from the factory, I also separated some images showing the difference between standard mode and movie mode. In this first image, for example, we can clearly see the difference.
between these two image modes, notice that in standard mode the colors are much more saturated and exaggerated, so blue is bluer, green is greener and so on. In film mode, the colors follow a more realistic and natural pattern. In this other scene, once again we can see the same thing, notice how we have a much more exaggerated green color when we leave the televisions in standard mode, different from film mode which tries to deliver something more realistic.
And this last image that I separated is also very interesting, so notice that in standard mode we have an image with greater brightness and a more exaggerated white, different from film mode, which once again gives us a more realistic result. And I even understand that some people may prefer the default mode, especially if you are going to use these televisions in a brighter environment because in this type of scenario, having a brighter and more saturated image can really please some people more. Still talking about image quality, it is worth mentioning that both televisions are using the VA type panel.
This means that for you to have maximum image quality, the most recommended thing is that you use these TVs as far forward as possible, you can even use They are from a more lateral angle like in these images, but in this case the colors are already losing a little quality compared to when you are viewing them 100% from the front. What about other features related to image quality, such as upscaling quality and color uniformity? In this sense, I didn't see any difference between them, that is, in terms of image quality, the two are extremely similar.
And before I forget, it's worth mentioning that both TVs support HDR10+ but do not support Dolby Vision. But besides image quality, what can we say about the other features? Is there any relevant difference between them in the other questions?
But before answering this question, I wanted to give you a super tip, especially for those who are new to the channel and the tip is as follows: if you want to save money when buying your next televisions in the same way that we also do here on the channel the tip is as follows: just join our official WhatsApp and Telegram group, the link will be below in the description field and in the pinned comments field.

So the link will be below, we are waiting for you there.
Continuing with our comparison, what can we say about sound quality? In this sense, once again the two are extremely similar, delivering the same sound power, which in this case is 40 W divided into 2. 2 channels and it is worth saying that both TVs support Dolby Atmos.
Now talking about the operating system, once again I didn't find any relevant difference, the two systems work very well and have support for the main applications on the market, so in this sense I didn't find any difference in favor of one TV or the other. And what to say now in relation to gaming performance, is it that once again the two are basically identical? In general, you can say yes, once again they are practically identical in terms of specifications, for example they are exactly the same.
Both give us a refresh rate of 120 Hz, with four HDMI ports, all 2. 1 and all support VRR and FREESYNC. Furthermore, both have a special Gamer bar that gives us access to some extra functions such as the possibility of changing the image quality much more quickly, it is also possible to see the viewing rate of the TVs in real time and for PC gamers it is possible change the aspect ratio to 21x9 and 32x9 on PC games that are supported.
And it's also worth mentioning that both TVs already provide us with official support for the Xbox application, which for those who don't know is an application that allows us to play Xbox games via the internet without needing the console. physical, so it's like Netflix but instead of watching movies and series we play video games. However, it is worth mentioning that this application is not free so you will need to pay a monthly fee to have access to the full library of games and in addition you will need a controller with Bluetooth support to connect to the TVs.
And to end this part with video games, I strongly recommend that, if possible, when playing, explore the image settings menu as you can greatly improve the original image quality that comes standard on the TV for video games. In fact, at this moment you are seeing some images where I show the transition between the standard mode and how the image looked after my changes and notice that in the standard mode the colors are exaggeratedly saturated and the white is quite blown out in some scenes, unlike in the my change that delivers a more consistent and natural image. And if by chance you prefer the images after my changes, I'll leave the changes I made below in the description field if you want to take a look.
And obviously you don't need to follow 100% of my recommendations, however, I recommend that you still explore and see what I changed, try to change some things because I'm sure you'll get a much better result compared to standard mode that comes with these TVs for playing video games. Now talking about connectivity, they are on the screen now for you to take a look at and once again they are identical and both TVs support Dual Band Wi-Fi, HDMI eARC and also support for Bluetooth. So, as we have seen so far, the two TVs are indeed extremely similar.
However, now I'm going to mention to you the two biggest differences that I found between them and I honestly don't know if they are very relevant differences or not, but I still think they're worth mentioning here for you. The first difference is in relation to their table support, as you can see in these images, the QNX1D has these side supports made of plastic, unlike the QN85D, which has a central support made of metal, which gives it a more premium look compared to the QNX1D. .
And still talking about the table support, it is worth mentioning that in the case of the QNX1D, if you want, you can adjust the support to place the TV a little higher or a little lower, in our case we are already using it as high as possible and it is also worth mentioning that if you want it is also possible to remove these side supports from the corners and place the two more in the center of the television, something interesting if you want to place this TV on a smaller table. And while I'm still talking about the table support here, it's worth mentioning that if you want, it's also possible to place these televisions on a wall support, however, in this case the support must be purchased separately. And now comes the second big difference between these two televisions which, in the end, I believe will be the decisive factor for you to choose between one or the other television and this special issue is the price.
And regarding this issue of price, if we use as a reference the 55" inch models, which are the units we are testing back here and if we go to the manufacturer's official website, we will see that the two televisions are being sold for almost R$ 6000 and honestly speaking for that price I don't think it's worth buying either of the two televisions, not that they are bad, far from it but for R$ 6000 I think it's a very high price for them. However, in our WhatsApp and Telegram group these two televisions have already appeared for less than R$ 4,000, which is a huge discount compared to the official price and so for less than R$ 4,000 I think both televisions are great choices. So at the end of the day, if I were choosing a TV, I personally would choose the cheapest one, regardless of which one it was, because for me the biggest difference between them apart from the price is the issue of the table support, but for me that's a bit of a problem.
indifferent you know, So personally speaking I would analyze the price and choose the cheapest one. And it is worth mentioning that the price issue can be quite variable and sometimes one is cheaper and sometimes it is the other. Anyway, it will depend a lot on when you are watching the video.
But anyway guys, so this was the video, we hope you liked it, I hope this video helped you in some way.
