Samsung UE55MU7000 review
Review: May 2017 | ||
![]() Rating: In a nutshell: The Samsung UE55MU7000 is a cost-effective way to enjoy HDR1000 on a big screen. Cheaper than the MU8000 and QLED models, it still gives you superb picture quality, premium design, clutter-free cable management, and Samsung's superb Smart TV system. Highly recommended! |
Samsung MU7000 review
Positioned at the bottom of Samsung's high-end range for 2017, the MU7000 is the same as the Samsung MU8000, but with a different stand and a less effective anti-reflective filter.
The silver branch stand is wider, so you'll need to check it will fit on your furniture, but it retains the clutter-free cable management system of the MU8000 and is just as nice, just different.
The black filter doesn't make a huge difference either, and in fact, you'll struggle to spot much of a difference in picture quality between the MU7000 and MU8000. It still has the 10-bit colour, local dimming, refined motion control and high peak brightness that make all of Samsung's high-end TVs so impressive.
What you will notice when comparing the MU7000 vs MU8000 is that the 55MU7000 costs £200 less, making it a very cost effective and attractive option.
Also check out the Samsung MU7070, which is almost the same as the MU7000, but finished in Titan grey instead of silver.

Stand Measurement?
Asked by BobH
from UK
on 5th Oct 2017
I was looking at the 49" and 55" model but I am confused about the
stand measurement. I like the spaced out legs rather than the central
stand of the 8000 series. If there is anybody out there with the 55"
7000 series model who could measure the distance between the two pairs
of legs and the width of each so that I can be sure it will fit on my
tv cabinet.

Don't worry about the space between the legs as Samsung has this
covered with extra slots that are closer together for smaller TV
units. Hope this helps.

From what I heard on yt review. The space between the legs is around
90 cms.
