Sony vs. Samsung: Which 55-inch 1080p TV is better?
|
From a business perspective, the TV business is obviously riskier than mobile phones, requiring greater investment and lower returns, and the entire market competition is extremely fierce. However, from another perspective, the technology of TV products has also been greatly improved, with better picture quality, higher resolution, smart platforms, and more complete product types and distribution. For consumers, the biggest benefit is that big brands have begun to focus on the balance between performance and price, and have launched a series of "sub-flagship" products. If you are not interested in 4K, Sony and Samsung have both launched the latest 1080P HD flagship this year, so which one is the best? Design and price Sony has successively launched 1080P and 4K TVs with good reputations in recent years, but not every one is a boutique. This year's KDL-55W955 is not ideal in some ways, especially the hidden dangers of the wedge design and the average black effect. However, due to its 55-inch 1080P screen, smart system and sub-flagship positioning, its price has reached about 16,000 yuan, which is not cheap. On the other hand, the Samsung UE55H8000, which is also 55 inches and 1080P, is equipped with a more attractive curved screen, which brings excellent image effects and a powerful intelligent system. However, due to the high cost of the curved screen, its price is about 23,000 yuan, which is more expensive than the Sony model. Whose picture quality is better? For LCD TVs, the quality of the panel will largely determine the picture quality performance. As a self-sufficient panel manufacturer, Samsung usually equips its own TVs with the most suitable panels. Although its backlight and image processing engines are not the strongest, Samsung's mid-to-high-end TVs generally have good picture quality. As for Sony, due to the group's long-term losses, the panel business has long been sold, and the current Sony TVs are purchased from suppliers such as Samsung, LG and Sharp. However, as a veteran TV manufacturer, Sony's X-Reality Pro image processing engine and Triluminous color technology can still have some positive effects on picture quality. So even though last year's 4K model used OLED panels produced by AUO, it still has a good display effect and good cost performance. However, this year's Sony W9 series TVs chose LG's 3D IPS panel, resulting in average black level performance, so the overall viewing experience is slightly inferior to Samsung, which is a pity. The editor of the technology media techradar commented on the Sony KDL-55W955: "Obviously, the picture quality of the W955 is not as good as the W829. The most obvious is the grayish black tone performance, which directly affects the viewing experience of dark scenes and ignores a lot of details. If you don't use its dynamic control system, the picture quality will be greatly reduced." The evaluation of Samsung UE55H8000 is relatively good: "This is an excellent TV with fast response. The excellent black level makes dim scenes look very natural instead of gray. This aspect is much better than other brands of the same level products." Conclusion Of course, each product has its own advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of choosing Sony KDL-55W955 are its easy-to-use interface and relatively low price, but it cannot provide the best picture effect; Samsung UE55H8000 has better picture quality and dynamic effect, but the curved screen makes it more expensive and cannot be wall-mounted. In addition, the interface design is relatively complex, which increases the learning cost. However, considering that TV picture quality is often the most important thing for users, we think that Samsung UE55H8000 is a better choice if the budget is sufficient.
