Our Verdict

Sony X75K

Samsung CU8000

The Sony X75K and Samsung CU8000 are of similar quality, but they have different strengths and weaknesses. The Samsung has superior contrast, alongside better black uniformity, so it looks better than the Sony in dark rooms. However, the Sony is brighter and has a significantly wider viewing angle. This makes it much better for watching shows or sports in bright rooms with a large group of friends since it handles glare better than the Samsung, and its image doesn't fade much when viewed from the sides. The Samsung TV does have better low-quality content smoothing than the Sony, so low-bitrate content from streaming apps looks better on it than on the Sony.
