Reviews on Samsung 55 Class Led Nu7300 Series Curved 2160p Smart 4k Uhd Tv

Test Results

Pattern

Curved Yeah

The design of the Samsung NU7300 is very good. It is slightly curved and mainly made of plastic except for the borders that are metal. The stand is basic and supports the TV well, merely the Television set wobbles dorsum and forth when moved. The are no gaps in the construction.

The stand of the Samsung NU7300 is plastic and quite basic. It holds the Idiot box well, but information technology wobbles dorsum and along if moved.

The footprint of the 55" model is 38.iii" x x.3"

Wall Mount VESA 200x200

The back of the TV is plastic and has the distinct groves for guiding the cables. In this model, the cables cannot be hidden through the stand as in more than premium models, equally only a prune is provided to guide them along the legs.

Borders 0.59" (ane.5 cm)

The border is plastic and average in thickness

Max Thickness four.09" (10.4 cm)

The Samsung NU7300 is thick fifty-fifty for a curved TV. If wall mounted, it will protrude a piffling.

The build quality is decent. The plastic experience is ascendant, only there are no gaps in the structure and the Boob tube is solid.

Pic Quality

Native Contrast 5,583 : 1

Dissimilarity with local dimming N/A

The Samsung NU7300 has an first-class contrast ratio. It has no trouble displaying deep blacks in a dark room. This is in the same ballpark as other Samsung TVs with VA panels, similar the flat NU7100.

Local Dimming No

Skilful SDR peak brightness. In dark scenes with a small-scale bright highlight, the Television receiver reduces the overall brightness to produce deeper dark scenes and thus highlights don't look too vivid. Brightness, even so, does remain consistent in less dark scenes, and the Television is ok for most rooms. It is only slightly brighter than its flat counterpart the NU7100

The HDR peak brightness of the Television receiver is mediocre. It is simply slightly brighter than the flat NU7100 but this may be due to unit variance. Is far behind the effulgence levels of the TCL R617. The Tv set does continue similar brightness levels regardless of the window sizes, merely dark scene highlights are not boosted at all.

5% Std. Dev. 0.435%

5% DSE 0.089%

The Samsung NU7300 has skilful grayness uniformity. On the 50% gray prototype, although at that place are uniformity issues, this is mostly darkening of the edges which doesn't create much muddied screen effect. These uniformity issues are not likely to cause nighttime spots on the screen, and this should make sports fans happy as no clouding will be visible in panning shots.

Like and even better results are obtained at the 5% gray and this cracking.

Color Washout 26°

Color Shift 21°

Brightness Loss 36°

Blackness Level Raise 12°

Gamma Shift 18°

The viewing bending is poor. Blacks fade as soon as yous motility from the center, colors get-go shifting at slightly larger angles. Finally, effulgence is the last epitome quality that deteriorates as viewing angle increases.

This Television set is not suitable for a broad viewing environment.

Native Std. Dev. 0.535%

Std. Dev. w/ L.D. Northward/A

The blackness uniformity is amazing. Our panel has very little clouding on the lower right corner, this should not be a concern as virtually people will not notice it.

Screen Finish Semi-gloss

Full Reflections vi.1%

Indirect Reflections 0.seven%

Calculated Direct Reflections 5.4%

Reflection handling is ok. The semi-gloss cease manages to diffuse most of the ambient reflections but doesn't do a great job if the source is facing the screen

Colour dE iii.83

Gamma 2.05

Color Temperature 6,186 K

Moving-picture show Mode Pic

Color Temp Setting Warm two

Gamma Setting BT.1886 +2, Effulgence +2

The out-of-the-box color accuracy is decent. Nosotros obtained the all-time results with the Moving picture Picture mode.

The white dE and the color dE are a bit off, simply these differences are besides small to bother most people. Gamma is college than our target and thus some nighttime details is lost. The colors are a little warm and this explains the faint red and yellowish prototype tint.

Update 04/12/2019: This Television receiver was incorrectly measured with Brightness +2, instead of at 0. This only has a pocket-sized bear on on the results (slightly dimmer dark scenes beneath nigh xxx IRE) so nosotros don't programme to retest it.

Color Calibration Yes

Auto-Calibration Function No

The mail service scale colour accuracy is remarkable. We were able to significantly lower the white balance dE, the Gamma was correct on the 2.2 target and colour temperature was almost perfect.

As with most 2018 Samsung TVs, nosotros were unable to completely fix the colour dE, although it was brought down to levels where very few people might notice.

You can meet our recommended settings here.

The Samsung NU7300 displays 480p content well, without any issues or obvious artifacts.

No obvious issues upscaling 720p content.

1080p content played from a Blu-ray looks good.

Native 4k content is displayed well on the Tv set.

DCI P3 xy 74.77%

DCI P3 uv 81.81%

Rec 2020 xy 53.71%

Rec 2020 uv 59.94%

The color gamut is okay. The Tv set is only capable of roofing near 3/four of the DCI P3 space and only merely a piffling more than one-half of the Rec. 2020 space.

The EOTF in Movie mode undershoots the target PQ bend significantly, then HDR content looks a little dimmer than normal. This is made less severe by setting Contrast Enhancer to Low, as shown in this plot.

The Game Fashion EOTF photo shows that the same undershooting happens in this fashion too. In the PC Fashion EOTF, there is still some undershooting of the PQ curve, but information technology starts at higher input point luminosity.

Normalized Rec 2020 Coverage ITP 48.6%

10,000 cd/m² Rec 2020 Coverage ITP 15.7%

The Samsung NU7300 has a disappointing color book every bit it fails to encompass the color space in various luminosity levels. Colors expect dim in darker scenes and the Boob tube fails to display the creator intended content accurately. This is as well due to the limited color gamut.

The gradient on the Samsung UN55NU7300 is good. Although there is small-scale banding pretty much everywhere, no major banding can exist observed in any color except in dark green

Setting Digital Clean View to 'auto' smooths the gradient but tin can't prepare information technology and causes a lost of fine details.

There is no temporary image retention on the NU7300, which is typical for TVs with VA panels.

Permanent Fire-In Run a risk No

The VA panel in our long-term examination appears to be immune and then we do expect not this TV to feel permanent paradigm retentivity.

Motion

80% Response Fourth dimension 7.3 ms

100% Response Time 18.7 ms

The response time of the Samsung NU7300 is good. The pixels transition fast and should please sports viewers and gamers. At the same time, there is some blur in the prototype which is mainly acquired by the backlight flickering. The response time is a bit faster than that of the flat NU7100, but this may come down to unit of measurement variance and these pocket-size response time differences are too visible in the moving logo photo.

Flicker-Gratis No

PWM Dimming Frequency 240 Hz

Just like the NU7100, the NU7300 uses PWM at 240Hz to dim the backlight except when at 100%.

All the same, when the motion interpolation is enabled through the Motorcar Move Plus option the flicker frequency of the backlight changes to 120Hz equally shown in this plot.

This causes worse duplications in the motility as shown in this photo

Optional BFI Yes

Min Flicker for lx fps 60 Hz

threescore Hz for 60 fps Yep

120 Hz for 120 fps Due north/A

Min Flicker for threescore fps in Game Mode 120 Hz

The BFI is great. LED Clear Motility nether Auto Motion Plus settings

In Game mode, 60Hz flicker is not possible, but the backlight flicker stays at 120Hz in Game fashion as shown in this plot.

Motion Interpolation (xxx fps) Yes

Motion Interpolation (60 fps) No

Motion Interpolations is decent. Some occasional artifacts tin can exist seen, and the TV stops interpolating when there's too much motion.

Note: that when Automobile Motility Plus is enabled the backlight flicker changes to 120Hz, every bit shown in this plot.

Frame Hold Time @ 24 fps 23.0 ms

Frame Hold Fourth dimension @ threescore fps 0.0 ms

The Samsung NU7300 has a very good stutter results as there is practically no stutter on the 60fps signal, merely there might exist a slight stutter on 24p content. This, however, will non be noticeable by most people.

Judder-Gratuitous 24p No

Judder-Free 24p via 60p No

Judder-Costless 24p via 60i No

Judder-Complimentary 24p via Native Apps No

Just similar the NU7100, the NU7300 cannot remove judder from 24fps content. This holds truthful no matter if the content is 60p/i or from native 24fps content played from a Blu-ray.

This isn't a big issue since almost people are non very sensitive to judder and probably won't notice it.

Excellent low input lag, better than final twelvemonth'due south MU6300. When the input is set to PC, the input lag is automatically the lowest possible.

There is no improvement in input lag if you actuate Game mode within PC mode. The NU7300 does not a have a Game Movement Plus similar the higher end Samsungs.

4k @ 120 Hz No

8k @ 30 Hz or 24 Hz No

8k @ 60 Hz No

The Samsung NU7300 is decent at resolution support. The post-obit settings take to be implemented:

• The resolution 4k@60Hz @ 4:4:four or @ 4:2:ii is merely supported when HDMI UHD Colour is enabled
• iv:4:4 Blush is just properly displayed when the input icon is fix to PC (aka PC mode)
• In PC way, Sharpness is set to '10' past default and this ways no added sharpness. Even so, you tin 'soften' the paradigm if you make up one's mind to reduce it.

The Samsung NU7300 has an average frequency response. LFE (low-frequency response) is at 80Hz, which is decent. This results in a sound that doesn't lacks thump and rumble, but take some punch to its bass. The response above the LFE point is decently balanced, which is important for producing clear and intelligible dialogs. However, this TV doesn't get very loud and produces some compression and pumping artifacts under max book. It doesn't have a room correction organization either, which is why information technology wasn't to remove the modes of our test room effectually 200Hz.

Lesser right: Sony X720E (KD43X720E).  Different our other photographs, this picture wasn't taken under a controlled surround, so do not depict conclusions from information technology.

The Samsung NU7300 is a decent 4k Television set without much curved competition, but if you're willing to give upwards the bend then i of these competing models may exist a better selection. Run into our recommendations for the best smart TVs.

40" 43" 50" 55" 58" 65" 75"

The Samsung NU7300 is marginally improve than the Samsung NU7100. The NU7300 is a touch brighter and has a slightly faster response time merely this may be just due to small variances betwixt panels. Overall, there is no major difference between the two, though. The NU7100 is available in a wider multifariousness of sizes.

49" 55" 65" 75" 82"

The Samsung NU8000 is ameliorate than the Samsung NU7300. The NU8000 is much brighter and amend able to overcome glare in a bright room. The NU8000 has a faster response time and can remove judder from most sources. The NU8000 also has new gaming features, including Auto Low Latency Mode and VRR (variable refresh rate).

49" 55" 65"

The Samsung NU7300 is somewhat ameliorate than the Samsung MU7600. The Samsung NU7300 has better input lag that you'll savor if you lot play video games and amend response time for fast action like sports. It can likewise display more uniform blacks, and this improves the picture quality in a nighttime room. On the other hand, the curved Samsung MU7600 has slightly better colour gamut and color volume that make HDR content slightly better.

40" 49" 55" 65"

The Samsung NU7300 is a bit meliorate than the Samsung MU7000. The NU7300 has better blackness uniformity, which is important when viewing in a nighttime room. Information technology also has less input lag, although both have fantabulous performance.

40" 43" fifty" 55" 65" 75"

The Samsung NU7300 is marginally amend than the Samsung MU6300. While there are no major differences betwixt them, the NU7300 has a ameliorate backlight with less noticeable flicker.

43" 55" 65"

The Samsung The Frame 2018 is a fleck better than the Samsung NU7300. HDR content looks improve on The Frame, equally it can brandish a wide color gamut, and has ameliorate colour book. The Frame too has much ameliorate motion handling, with a faster response time and FreeSync support. The Frame tin too remove judder from all 24p sources.

43" 49" 50" 55" 65"

The two TVs have different panel types, each with its advantages and disadvantages. If you've got a room with a wide seating arrangement and you'll be watching from the side, and so the LG UK6300 is a better choice due to the better viewing angles. If you'll exist sitting straight in front, then the Samsung NU7300, is a better pick, equally it can become brighter and can also deliver much deeper blacks to improve dark room functioning. The LG UK6300 has meliorate reflection handling, which is skilful if your room has many lights.

55" 65"

The Samsung RU7300 is the replacement for the Samsung NU7300, and there are no significant differences between the two. The RU7300 at present supports 1440p, and it has a dedicated component input at the back, instead of the adapter used by the NU7300. The RU7300 also adds support for 5 GHz wifi.
