The large Samsung Neo QLED TV no longer costs even half its original price. Why buy it?

A large 75″ Mini LED TV usually costs tens of thousands, and this one cost 49,990 CZK at its launch last May. However, the Samsung QE75QN70FAU has now dropped below the 22,000 mark for the first time, and you can buy it in the Czech Republic from 21,677 CZK. You can compare current prices across stores directly on Heureka. It primarily stands out with its Neo QLED panel with a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz.

Quick summary:
✅ It makes sense if you want a large Mini LED 4K TV with good picture quality and simple controls at a reasonable price.
⚠️ Consider that both Dolby Vision and DTS are missing, and the built-in sound is only 20W.
💡 From 21,677 CZK, this is the lowest price to date – for the first time below the 22,000 CZK mark.

Why this TV is interesting

The main attraction is the Neo QLED backlighting (Mini LED) controlled by Quantum Matrix Slim technology, which provides more precise contrast and deeper blacks compared to standard LED. Additionally, there’s the NQ4 AI Gen2 processor with twenty neural networks, which handles 4K AI upscaling and real-time image and sound optimization. Together with Quantum Dot technology and PANTONE certification, it offers a rich and faithful picture – all at a price that has halved after a year.

Key parameters explained in plain language

The TV features 4K resolution (3840 × 2160) on a 75″ diagonal and supports a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz thanks to Motion Xcelerator technology. It handles HDR10, HDR10+, and HLG, including adaptive variants. However, it’s fair to add that it does not support Dolby Vision, which some users complain about. Features like Color Booster Pro and Real Depth Enhancer further improve colors and depth perception, while AI upscaling brings even lower-resolution content closer to 4K.

Practical aspects: ports, sound, system

For gamers, it’s good to know that all 4 HDMI ports support 4K at 144 Hz, along with VRR and FreeSync Premium Pro, and a smart AI game mode. Sound is handled by a 20 W (2.0) system with OTS Lite and Q-Symphony features – sufficient for casual viewing, but a soundbar is worthwhile for a cinematic experience. The TV runs on the Tizen system with 7 years of updates, integrates a SmartThings hub, and comes with a SolarCell remote that charges with light and doesn’t require batteries. Connectivity is provided by Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3.

What users say

The rating is high – on Heureka, it’s 92%, and most reviewers recommend the product. People most often praise the high-quality Mini LED picture with rich colors and contrast, simple controls and surprisingly easy setup, and decent sound during viewing. The battery-free remote and the overall price-to-performance ratio are also appreciated.

Criticism is mainly directed at formats and connectors. The absence of Dolby Vision and DTS, as well as missing RCA connectors, is repeatedly mentioned. Some users dislike the minimalist remote, others miss a paper manual or Czech language for voice control. A few users mention that fine-tuning the picture for standard DVB-T broadcasting takes a while and that the AI sometimes activates itself based on the TV’s sound.

When it doesn’t make sense

If Dolby Vision or DTS matters to you, opt for a brand that supports them (e.g., Android TVs). If you want premium sound directly from the TV, be aware that the 20W system is rather basic, and you’ll likely want a soundbar. And if you don’t have enough space for a 75″ diagonal or sit too close, consider a smaller variant of the same model.

Verdict: who it’s worth it for

For a household that wants a large Mini LED 4K TV with good picture quality and simple controls, the price from 21,677 CZK is very attractive – especially compared to the launch price of 49,990 CZK and given that this is the first drop below 22,000 CZK. You get Neo QLED backlighting, NQ4 AI Gen2, 144Hz, and gaming features. Just be aware of the absence of Dolby Vision and DTS and basic sound. However, at 21,677 CZK, it’s one of the most competitively priced large TVs on the market.

Is the missing Dolby Vision a dealbreaker for you, or is HDR10+ sufficient for your TV?
