Samsung MU7000 and LG JS800V / JS850V in South Africa vs. other territories

[bobbyb]

On these sets Samsung uses a VA panel and LG an IPS. For front-on viewing, the Samsung would be superior, if the comparison is of apples with apples spec-wise otherwise.

As far as I'm aware, in America the MU7000 is typically more expensive than these 2 LG's. However in South Africa the reverse is true.

KenMasters is the sagamer resident expert but he is familiar with the European version of these sets. Does anyone know what the reality for these sets in South Africa is?

And what does this mean as far as the better set in ZA, as well as better value-for-money (including the Hisense M7000) in ZA, all things considered?

The sets in the US and here have no differences,looks the same and has the same specs.

The models though, have slightly different panels besides what you mentioned, the LG's is similar to Samsung's MU8000 series as it has a 10 bit panel, while the Samsung MU7000 doesn't.

The SA MU7000 just seems like a rebranded MU6300 from the US.
In the US there's NO 43MU7000, only 40MU7000. Whilst they do have a 43MU6300 just like our 43MU"7000".
