Having had a chance to test and compare two solutions from LG - Samsung 58NU7100 vs 55NU7100, I would like to share my experience.
Both models belong to the NU7100 series, which also includes other high-performance models. Both models are in the mid-price range (their cost around $500 each). Both TVs are 2018 year models. These are Smart TVs with many useful functions. These two models have VA displays installed and they use the Edge LED backlight technology assuring great image quality and stunning color vividness.
These two solutions support the modern 4K standard. The Motion Rate 120 technology excludes any blurring during dynamic scenes. The colors are vibrant due to the technologies PurColor and Essential Contrast. Both models also support the HDR10 technology.
Both models use the universal guide feature that brings content from your devices and applications in a single user-friendly menu. It also simplifies content searching. These TVs also can work with other Samsung devices providing you with seamless entertainment. You can also synchronize up your smartphone to control the content on the screen. Both models support the upscale feature. Both models have powerful processors installed which guarantee a high level of performance – you can navigate fast through menus.
These TVs look almost the same – they are slim and they have the stable Y-shaped stands. However, both TVs can be wall-mounted. The main difference between Samsung 55NU7100 vs 58NU7100 is the screen size – 55NU7100 has a 55 in screen and 58NU7100 has a 58 in a screen. The bezels are very narrow.
The dimensions are 51.2x32.9x10.29 in for 58NU7100 versus 48.79x31.2x10.29 in for 58NU7100 (with the stand which is around 3 in high). These TVs have 3 HDMI and 2 USB ports. Both models come with ergonomic remote controllers.
