Our Verdict

Samsung DU8000

Samsung DU6900

The Samsung DU8000 and the Samsung DU6900 are very similar TVs but with a twist. The DU8000 is better suited for dark rooms due to its improved contrast, wider color gamut, and better out-of-the-box accuracy. Inversely, the DU6900 is the brighter TV of the two and has slightly better reflection handling, making it the superior choice for moderately lit rooms. The DU6900 also has a VRR feature, even if only in the narrow 48–60Hz range, giving it a slight edge when used for gaming.
