    The Q80R has a top-notch HD performance. This pleasingly bright panel offers a good level of colour pop and contrast with Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) content. Colour fidelity is superb, with convincing primaries and naturalistic skin tones. Black level performance is above average. Letterbox bars are solid and ebon, without any wandering greyness.
