Samsung The Premiere 7 vs NexiGo Aurora Pro
Every published specification for both, with the brightness standard shown beside each figure and the screen geometry worked out from each maker’s own throw ratio. Rows where the two differ are tinted.
Samsung
Samsung The Premiere 7
The single-laser Premiere: half the price of the 9, 2,500 ISO lumens, the same Tizen platform and a 60 W 2.2-channel Atmos system.
Best for: A Samsung-ecosystem laser TV at half the flagship price
NexiGo
NexiGo Aurora Pro
A tri-laser UST with an unusually serious audio system — two 15 W woofers and two 15 W tweeters — and Dolby Vision.
Best for: A tri-laser picture with real built-in sound, where a streaming stick is acceptable

Samsung The Premiere 7: what it gives up
- Single-laser phosphor, so the color volume is well below the tri-laser Premiere 9
- 0.25 throw ratio needs more wall clearance than a 0.19-class UST
- No Dolby Vision, and Samsung publishes neither a contrast figure nor an input-lag figure for it
NexiGo Aurora Pro: what it gives up
- Aptoide instead of a licensed smart platform — Netflix and several other apps will not run natively
- 3,000:1 native contrast and no published fan-noise or input-lag figures
- 60 Hz only
- NexiGo's US service network is limited
