Vs Samsung UN55C7000Vs Sony KDL 52EX700
Value Comparison
The LG 60PK750 honestly can’t compete with the Sony KDL-52EX700. The Sony is smaller, yes, but it has better overall picture quality, significantly better online features, and costs less.

Blacks & Whites
The LG had a slightly deeper black level and a significantly dimmer peak brightness. The Sony had a much higher contrast ratio.
Color Accuracy
The LG has a much more even color temperature, but its RGB representation wasn’t very good. The Sony ran warm most of the time, but overall, its colors were far more accurate.

Connectivity
The LG and Sony are fairly evenly matched in terms of ports, but Sony has two big advantages. The first is DLNA, which allows you to stream media off a computer in your home network. The second, significantly bigger advantage is its online content. Sony is currently the industry leader in the volume and quality of online content providers.
