The Amazon Omni QLED is at a lower midrange price and is a great choice for movies and gaming, with high contrast and good dark room performance. However, its bright room performance is not as strong. It comes with more HDMI ports but without standout speakers. The Samsung CU7000 costs less and could be a better pick if you're on a budget. It has good sports content performance and is slightly better in bright rooms compared to the Amazon Omni, but it falls short in overall picture quality and dark room use. It has fewer HDMI ports and includes voice command capability. Give Feedback

The Samsung CU7000 (LCD) and Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) are both only fair for sports, though the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Amazon Omni QLED and the Samsung CU7000, both having LCD screens with fair response time, struggle with motion handling in sports, causing potential blur during fast movements. Reflecting on their capabilities, the Omni QLED is slightly better with reflections and has a narrower viewing angle which can be challenging for group watching, whereas the CU7000 performs less well with reflections and similar viewing angle limitations, both leading to a fair overall sports watching experience.

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is good for news, talk, & other TV, while the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is only fair.
The Amazon Omni QLED has good upscaling and SDR brightness, making news and talk shows look sharp and clear even on a large screen, while its colors out of the box are vibrant, requiring less tweaking.

The Amazon Omni QLED (LCD) is only fair for bright room, while the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is poor.

In contrast, the Samsung CU7000 has a poorer performance in bright rooms due to its lower SDR brightness and poorer reflection handling, which could make the screen more difficult to view under bright lighting conditions.

Tech Advisor
Jim Martin | April 2023
"This really is a TV designed for the streaming generation ... And it’s good to see support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision because it means more of the content you stream will be available in HDR. Overall, the Omni QLED is an impressive TV. It’s pretty bright, has good contrast and – thanks to those quantum dots – vibrant colours."
