Our Verdict

Samsung AU8000

Sony X75K

The Samsung AU8000 and the Sony X75K are similar TVs, but the Sony is slightly better in a few ways. The Sony is a bit better for gaming due to its quicker response time, so you will have less blur behind quick moving objects, and it also supports 1440p gaming. The Sony gets brighter in SDR, so it overcomes glare in a bright room better than the Samsung. The Sony also gets brighter in HDR, so highlights pop a bit more with HDR content than the Samsung. Finally, the Sony has a wider viewing angle which makes it the better choice for watching TV with friends, as the image doesn’t degrade nearly as fast from the sides as the Samsung.
