Our Verdict

Hisense QD6QF

Samsung Q8F 2025

The Samsung Q8F 2025 and the Hisense QD6QF are fairly closely matched. The Hisense is a tad brighter in HDR, and it has slightly better reflection handling. The Samsung, on the other hand, has better gaming features, with HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, VRR support, and a higher refresh rate.
