$999 one is direct lit vs class 8000 is an edge lit....if i were you , i would prefer direct lit for such large tv .....however
The Samsung AU8000 is a bit better overall than the Samsung TU7000. They have similar features, but the AU8000 is better in a few areas. The AU8000 gets brighter and has better reflection handling, so it's a better choice for well-lit rooms. It also has an upgraded version of Tizen OS, which feels smoother to use, and it comes with a mic for voice control in the remote, which the TU7000 doesn't have. On the other hand, the TU7000 supports 1440p, which the TU8000 doesn't.
I ordered the LG UQ8000 from Costco and it hasnt arrived yet, but I am having second thoughts now. I would rather have the Samsung's contrast than the LG's 120HZ since I am no gamer.
