Samsung UE43RU7100 review

There's no shortage of £1,000 or more QLED TVs in Samsung's range, but it's the ones that sneak below the £500 mark that most people end up buying. The 43-inch Samsung UE43RU7100 (sometimes called the UE43RU7100KXXU) is one such TV. Despite its low price you're still getting a set with a 4K display, advanced HDR formats and smart features. If something has to give to get prices low then it's going to be picture and sound quality. Read our review to see whether Samsung's cheapest 4K TV sets a high bar.
