A:Answer I currently have a 2010 Samsung 1080P, 240 hertz refresh rate TV and have the MU9000 on order. I can tell you the colors seem brighter and more vibrant on the MU8000 and 9000. The Sony colors are more life like with out the in your face colors. To me they are both good TV's and the decision is simply taste in what you will be using them for, but i have have multiple smaller Samsung TV's and all have been great.
