What reviewers say
What Hi-Fi? and AVForums praise the KS7000's natural colour, contrast and scaling of HD material; both find the 2016 Smart Hub easier to use. What Hi-Fi? says the sound lacks weight, while AVForums finds it adequate for everyday TV. Both note the lack of 3D and the awkward wide feet; AVForums also sees edge-lighting limitations in some HDR scenes.
