Samsung's entry-level QLED TV, the Samsung Q60D, delivers contrast-rich and bright, colorful picture quality thanks to its combination of QLED panel and 'Dual LED' tech. It also comes in a sleek, light and trim frame that's rare on sets at this price. It also has a great range of smart features including Samsung's Tizen smart TV interface and SmartThings platform. This deal takes the 55-inch model to a record-low of £507, a great offer for a QLED TV in a 55-inch size.

In my Samsung Q60D review, I praised its vibrant but natural colors, and its strong contrast, with surprisingly good black levels. But my main praise was in the realism of its textures, saying "Detail is where the Q60D shines, with crisp textures serving as the Q60D’s best aspect." While it isn't all perfect as motion can be a bit inconsistent and shadow detail isn't perfect, at this price, the Samsung Q60D does a fine job and will best most cheap LEDs in the same price bracket.

While the Q60D lacks the gaming features found in the best gaming TVs, I still found it to be solid for gaming, with Auto Low Latency Mode and Samsung's Gaming Hub, which enables access to a ton of cloud gaming apps such as Xbox, Luna, Nvidia GeForce Now and more. Plus, it has an ultra-low 9.6ms input lag time for seamless, smooth gameplay.

The Q60D also has a premium design for the price, with a slim profile, a near bezel-less screen and Samsung's SolarCell remote. It sound isn't the best so I'd recommend one of the best soundbars to go with it, but the money you're saving thanks to this deal should more than cover a budget soundbar upgrade.
