QUOTE(DarkNite @ Aug 21 2011, 05:57 PM) galacticdraco - thanks for the info. You're most welcome. I ended up with UA40D5500, 5 years warranty plus wireless adapter for RM3150. Dunno good price or not? If I remembered correctly, 40D5500 is being offered at RM2999 during the sales (more rebate may apply on top of that) and wireless adapter is being retailed at RM299 (PWP may apply). But nevermind those anymore. You've bought it, right? So just focus on enjoying the new TV. |

QUOTE(galacticdraco @ Aug 21 2011, 05:13 PM) Did your friend buy TV only for 4494? thanks mate, as me yst nite me just went to SenHeng see 46inch D6600 Series 6, what you mention is correct they are given RM 950 rebate if you register to become their member, plus free 2 set of 3D glass + blue-ray player. price is around RM6049, the sales is end of this month. I was still thinking, as some of my fren said SenHeng stuff no good, as this is my first time purchase LED, so correct me if i'm wrong.The price I get from SenHeng for 40D6600 + BD-D5500 (PWP) is 4699 (after cash rebate + member's rebate) FOC 3D Bluray Kit (2 3D glasses + Shrek BDs) + minor gifts (umbrellas etc.) 2+1 yrs (LED TV) & 1+1 yrs (BD Player) Warranty TV alone would be around 3.8k (Didn't pay attention 'cause I'd decided on PWP BD player) Those who're considering buying any model should really go to all the shops you could think of, even different shops of the same chain, 'cause what they're offerring could be different. I went to 2 SenQs and their offers for the same model differ in both package type (one shop listed the BD player as a gift while the other offered RM800 cash rebate and PWP price for the BD player) and the difference of the grand total amount was RM100 (after rebate). It's supposed to mean that they'll give you a voucher for your next purchase but the shops I visited actually let the customer use the voucher on the same/current purchase. You could ask them directly and see how they're doing this. Do you need 3D and Samsung Smart TV features? Below are some of the things I learned from reading/asking: All series 6 and 7 LED TVs comes with 3D features and are Smart TV, except that D6000 doesn't come with 2D-to-3D converter. All series 5 are non 3D-capable and I think only some models come with Smart TV features. Series 7 comes with 600Hz CMR, 400Hz(D6400/6600) and 200Hz(D6000) for series 6 and 100Hz CMR for series 5. I don't know much about the prices for 46incher cause for me that size is totally out of the question but I think D6400 is being offered at RM6499(from the usual RM6998/6999) for the current sales. Maybe SenHeng/SenQ are offering more rebate on top of that discounted price? Since they are offering RM800 rebate for their 40D6600 (As far as I can tell, they carry D6600 instead of D6400) for the Raya/Merdeka sales. Overall I think the best you can get under 6k for a 46incher is either D6400 or D6600, but only if the cash rebate I mentioned applied and only while the sales lasted. Oh, the main differences of D6400 and D6600 are: D6600 comes with wifi built-in while D6400 does not (but wifi adaptors would be given FOC during sales). You can download and install the Skype and Web browser apps on D6600 but not on D6400 (read a post by an actual D6400 owner that you could install them but they'll get blocked and deleted from your TV soon enough). If I am wrong about any of the above, all the sifus please fell free to correct. |

I did survey before and found that small shops do sell cheaper but there is a catch though. The set has only the 2 yrs manufacturer warranty.
These days most electronics/electrical stuff not built to last, so have a longer period warranty is better. And Senheng & Harvey Norman does provided addition period up to 5 yrs. From my past experience with CCFL lited LCD, they tend to give trouble in yr4 onwards, which fortunately I did pay for the additional period, saving me much money on several instance. So for LED lited which is still new & I'm not sure how's the durability and thus paying additional RM300, I hope I can sleep better. |

I connected a 1.5TB and it plays ok, I think 2TB should be fine too. The more important thing to take note might be what format it can play.I was told that it plays everything but rm, rmvb, mov, flac and ape. The wifi dongle official retail price is RM299. Anyway, I have a question of my own that I hope someone could help me with: When I watch the local tv stations, the sounds are less than satisfactory but it could be fixed by changing the sound from Nicam Stereo to Mono. unfortunately for me, this change would be reverted after several minutes. Why is it so? All that I could get from the e-manual is from the page: e-manual> basic features> selecting the sound mode. It does state that I could manual set the sound to mono, but it states nothing on the setting being reverted by itself. |
