LG C6 and Hisense U8 outperform Sony and Samsung in lab-tested color accuracy for SDR and HDR
↗
ZDNET's lab testing using Calman software identifies LG C6 and Hisense U8 as leaders in SDR and HDR color accuracy, respectively, over flagship models from Sony and Samsung.
Color accuracy is critical for professional media workflows, calibration reference displays, and high-end home theater setups. These results challenge assumptions about brand dominance in display performance and may influence procurement decisions for engineers specifying hardware for color-sensitive applications.
