Rank #7 in Best 43 Inch Smart TV 2026: Ten Ranked, Eight Still at 60Hz
Samsung Q7F2 43-Inch QLED 4K Smart TV
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Samsung 43 Inch QLED Q7F2 AI Smart TV is the set at number 7 in this guide, listed at £289.00. It is a 4K QLED panel with the Q4 AI Gen1 processor, Object Tracking Sound Lite and Tizen OS, rated 4.3 out of 5 across 135 ratings.
The number that decides its place here is the refresh rate: the listing states 50 Hz. That is the lowest figure in the guide and the only one below 60 Hz — below even the £229 Hisense E6Q, the cheapest set on the list. The listing also quotes no brightness figure in nits, which puts it among the six of ten sets here that state none at all, while the £265 TCL 43T6C claims 1,000 nits. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this television; we have not measured or tested the set ourselves.
