^ I'm not really a TV or home theater expert like others here, but so far I'm happy naman with my TV's picture quality. I use it mainly for movies (Blu-ray, 4K Blu-ray, Netflix & downloads) plus some local news watching.
Cannot compare it to the ru7100 as have not auditioned that set. Of course a bigger screen than 49" would be great, but it was out of my budget.
