Our Verdict
Samsung Q70A
Samsung Q60B
The Samsung Q70A is better overall than the Samsung Q60B. The Q70A has more gaming features like HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, a 120Hz panel, and VRR support, all of which the Q60B doesn't have. Also, the Q70A has a much better response time for better motion handling. The Q70A also gets brighter in SDR, so it's better for well-lit rooms.
