Our Verdict

Samsung CU7000/CU7000D

Samsung DU7200

The Samsung DU7200 and Samsung CU7000/CU7000D are closely matched, with the older CU7000 having a slight edge when it comes to image quality, but the DU7200 has more features. The DU7200 is a bit brighter in HDR and SDR, but this is hardly noticeable, while the CU7000 has noticeably deeper contrast. Still, the CU7000 has slightly better reflection handling, giving it the edge in brighter rooms. The DU7200 is the most accurate TV of the two out-of-the-box and has a basic VRR feature in the 48-60Hz range, making it a bit more interesting for gamers. Ultimately, these two TVs are similar enough that you should get the cheapest one you can find.
