Our Verdict
Samsung Q7F 2025
Samsung U7900F
The Samsung Q7F 2025 and the Samsung U7900F are both sub-par TVs, but the Q7F is slightly better. The Q7F gets quite a bit brighter, so it can handle a bit more glare in a moderately-lit room, and HDR stands out slightly better. The Q7F also has higher native contrast, so blacks are deeper in dark scenes, but it's still not great. Finally, the Q7F has an additional HDMI port, making it slightly more versatile. The U8000F, on the other hand, supports VRR, but this adds very little as it's only effective across a very narrow refresh rate range.
