Our Verdict
LG UN7300
Samsung TU7000
The LG UN7300 and the Samsung TU7000 perform similarly overall; however, they use different panel types with different advantages and disadvantages. The LG uses an IPS panel that has a better viewing angle at the expense of a lower contrast ratio. The Samsung, on the other hand, uses a VA panel, which has a much better contrast ratio but a narrower viewing angle.
