Our Verdict
Samsung DU7200/DU7200D
Samsung DU6900
The Samsung DU7200/DU7200D and the Samsung DU6900 are very similar overall. The DU7200 has better contrast, so it displays deeper blacks. The DU7200 also has much better pre-calibration accuracy, so colors in SDR are more accurate. However, the DU6900 has a slight edge with SDR brightness and reflection handling, meaning it's a bit better for bright rooms.
