Our Verdict
LG UN7300
LG UN6950
The LG UN7300 is slightly better overall than the LG UN6950. Both TVs are available with IPS or VA panels, depending on the size. The UN7300 we tested has an IPS panel, and the UN6950 we tested has a VA panel, so the contrast and viewing angles differ on which panel you get. The UN7300 has much better reflection handling, color accuracy, and it comes with LG's Magic Remote. However, the UN6950 has a quicker response time and lower input lag.
