Kitchens, bedrooms and box rooms
At 4.4 kg with the stand and 733 mm wide, it fits a worktop, a shelf or a small unit, and the low feet keep the footprint tight.
The Q5F is Samsung's small-screen Real QLED: a Full HD quantum dot panel with Quantum HDR, Hyper Real processing, a satellite-capable tuner and Tizen smart TV.
Quantum dots on a small screen. The Q5F puts Samsung's QLED colour layer behind a 1920 x 1080 panel, which is the resolution that suits a 32-inch television: at this size and a normal viewing distance, colour volume and contrast do more visible work than pixel count. Micro Dimming Pro and Mega Contrast handle the light.
The tuner is the other quiet advantage: DVB-T2CS2 means it takes satellite as well as terrestrial and cable, which the Crystal UHD lines do not. Two HDMI inputs, one with eARC, plus AirPlay and Google Cast for phones. Tizen runs the apps and Samsung TV Plus, and Samsung Knox handles security.

The DVB-T2CS2 tuner takes satellite, cable and terrestrial broadcasts, so a second room can be fed from an existing dish without another set-top box.
Quantum dots, Quantum HDR and PurColour give a small screen more saturation and depth than a basic panel, which is the difference you actually see up close.

The Q5F is a Real QLED, which means a quantum dot layer in front of the backlight producing colour more precisely than a plain LED panel. At 32 inches the payoff is saturation and depth rather than detail: PurColour and Quantum HDR do the colour work, Micro Dimming Pro and Mega Contrast handle brightness and shadow, and the Hyper Real processor ties the two together on a 1920 x 1080 grid.
The DVB-T2CS2 tuner is the practical difference from the rest of the range, taking satellite as well as terrestrial and cable. Tizen with Samsung TV Plus provides free ad-supported channels and the usual apps, Samsung Knox looks after security, and there is a web browser. AirPlay and Google Cast handle phones and tablets, and the set answers to Alexa and Google Assistant.
Audio is 10 W across two channels with Object Tracking Sound Lite and Adaptive Sound, which suits a small room and little else; Q-Symphony and eARC let a compatible Samsung soundbar take over. Connections are two HDMI, one USB-A, Ethernet, Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.3. The cabinet is 733 mm wide and 4.4 kg on its low feet, or 74.4 mm deep on a 200 x 200 mm bracket.
Samsung publishes no box list for the Q5F, so expect the television, its low feet with fixings and a remote control, with the packaging insert confirming anything else.
