LG UJ630V vs Samsung MU6400

[couchmaster]

Hi,

 

I am having trouble deciding between the following two TVs: LG UJ630V and Samsung MU6400.

 

They are both 49", 4K and HDR. The LG is almost £100 cheaper. 

 

Differences:

LG panel type is IPS whilst Samsung is ADS - what's the difference?

LG backlight is Direct-LED whereas Samsung is EDGE-LED. Am I right in saying the LG is better for backlight?

 

My question is overall which is better? I am happy to pay the extra £100 if it is indeed worth it. Important for me is the sound quality as well - do either of them have notable superior sound quality?

 

 

Thanks in advance

An ADS panel is virtually the same as IPS. I suggest looking for a model with a VA panel if you want good contrast.

 

Direct LED is generally better for uniformity, especially for entry level TVs with IPS panels.
