Our Verdict
Samsung DU8000
Samsung DU7200
The Samsung DU8000 and the Samsung DU7200 are very similar overall. The DU7200 has an edge with contrast, displaying slightly deeper blacks. The DU7200 is also brighter overall, meaning it fights a bit more glare in a bright room and displays brighter highlights in HDR. On the other hand, the DU8000 displays a wider range of colors, so you get a slightly more vibrant image on it.
