Our Verdict

Samsung RU8000

Samsung NU8000

The Samsung NU8000 is a bit better than the Samsung RU8000, although it's an older model that may be hard to find. The NU8000 has a local dimming feature that can improve dark room performance, whereas the RU8000 doesn't. The NU8000 can also get brighter in both SDR and HDR. That said, the RU8000 has a lower input lag and a faster response time, so it's better for gaming.
