After last year's Samsung Q80T QLED was one of our top recommended TVs, we finally got to review the new Q80A! Spoiler alert: it's not as good as its predecessor, and we'll explain why. The Q80A isn't part of the new Samsung Neo QLED lineup, but it's still an upper-midrange model in their QLED set of TVs. We're going to share our results with you by looking at its picture quality, gaming performance, and any extra features. We're going to compare it to the Q80A from 2020 and talk about how it performs against its competition.
