Our Verdict

Samsung RU7100

LG UM7300

The Samsung RU7100 and the LG UM7300 are similar, but they use different panel types, each with their strengths and weaknesses. The LG UM7300 has an IPS panel, which remains accurate when viewed at an angle, but can't produce deep, uniform blacks. The Samsung RU7100 has a VA panel and looks much better in a dark room, but only when sitting directly in front, as the image degrades rapidly when viewed at an angle.
