If you are looking for a more budget-friendly option, the Samsung CU7000 offers a lower price and would be easy on the wallet, but it is outperformed by the Vizio Quantum Pro in most aspects, especially in brighter rooms where the Vizio has better light handling capabilities. The Vizio Quantum Pro, while typically more expensive, provides a higher quality viewing experience with better color and brightness, making it a superior choice for watching movies or sports. However, keep in mind that if you frequently watch content in a well-lit room, the superior light handling of the Vizio may be worth the extra cost. Give Feedback

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is only fair for movies & TV, while the Samsung CU7000 (LCD) is poor.
The Samsung CU7000 is considered poor for watching movies and cinematic TV due to its low local dimming capabilities and weak color performance, both out of the box and in terms of overall color volume, which are important in providing the deep blacks and accurate, vibrant colors typically desired for cinematic content. On the other hand, the Vizio Quantum Pro has fair performance in these areas, as its local dimming is notably better and its color capabilities out of the box and color volume are rated higher, contributing to a more satisfying viewing experience for movies and TV shows.

The Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) and Samsung CU7000 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV, though the Vizio Quantum Pro (LCD) is somewhat better.
The Samsung CU7000 offers better upscaling of lower resolution content, which is important for watching standard definition channels and programs, while the Vizio Quantum Pro provides a wider color gamut ensuring richer colors in content.
