Samsung RU8000
Sony X850G
The Samsung RU8000 and the Sony X850G use different panel types, each with advantages and disadvantages. The Samsung has much better dark room performance thanks to its VA panel, but the image loses accuracy when viewed from the side. It also has a lower input lag and is equipped with gaming features like VRR support that should please gamers. The Sony is a better choice if you regularly watch TV from the side and can handle reflections a little better.
