ah yes, im also deciding on those few week ago too, both also exceptional choice but samsung c550 better for full HD

this is when i came across a saledude demo'ing the 5000 Philips LED line. n got poison on 1st viewing. as i said before Philips's HD natural motion is just in class of its own!

Bought Samsung 46" LED 6200 last month at RM6050 (model 6200 only sold by SenQ), superb quality, with MKV playback (direct play downloaded movies). I'm a pro-Samsung smile.gif Look at Samsung series 9 LED and u will know why Samsung's technology has always been ahead of others. Just my personal 2 cents.

I own a Samsung UA46C6900, and I must say the picture quality is very good, both with Astro Byond ad Blue Ray. On analog Astro also not bad and much better than LCD.

I like the Samsung UA40C6200..plus the ability of it to play Divx HD(.mkv) direct via it USB connection.

Just wondering. Does it only play from USB flash drive or can it play from a HDD too?

Other than Samsung LED, what other brand that have this feature too?
Sharp LC40LE820M..
Panasonic THL42D25K..
???????

Thanks
ps: basically I'm looking for a 40"/42" LED/LCD tv that it USB connection can play ".mkv" files

If you go to popular electronic shop like harvey norman, courts or senQ, their will have a lot of display unit for customer make a choice.

i personally will recommend Samsung LED, reason

1) 1st brand lauching LED commecial brand tv
2) ultra clear panal, because of this panal it give u more clear picture compare with other
3) usd support hd format like mkv, tp, ts file which other can't support
4) can play hard disk drive (HDD) because one of the usb slot having provide power consumption to HDD
........


but if u r looking for 3d tv, ......for ur information requirement fast respon for 3d tv very important.....for this reason i prefer panasonic because respone time for plasma always better than lcd and led

hope this short guide info will help u

Bought the Panasonic THL42D25K cos I quite liked the non-reflective surface. The outlook design isn't that fantastic but the screen colors look natural. Will try to feedback more once I get it delivered to the new place which would only be ready later this weekend or next week...

Some other things you'd probably know is that... ethernet for Skype and the sales person says that it can access media files from the network via ethernet. Not sure about eh USB port though...

The USB port is usually for hooking up digicams for direct playback/display off them on your TV. Some other brands like LG, Samsung, Phillips, can playback limited avi/mkv files but with Panny, don't think they have this feature

Hi there,

I did a bit of research and considered the following model


Samsung 46 UAC6900 @ RM6500

Samsung 46 C 6200 (SenQ Model)

Sharp 46LC 820M @ RM6180 FOC BlueRAY Player. Without blueray RM6180 - 300 = RM5880

LG 47 SL90QD @ RM5800

Finally i got myself the Sharp simply because value for money. Samsung 46 UAC6900 is great in contrast and sharp but too bright for home viewing. Beware that in the shops normally they will set it to almost maximum brightness to make the picture stand out but not practical at home.

Comparing Samsung and Sharp after calibration almost the same to my naked eyes. Both Samsung and Sharp are quite reflective but Sharp total beat Samsung here (Not a good thing). But at a price differences of RM620 this can be accepted smile.gif

Another model i wish to recomend. That LG 47 SL90D. Quite like the design. Its an old model but quality wise almost the same.

bought it from SenQ as this model only sold by SenQ, no idea for 40" now, i was quoted about RM4900, but that was bout 2 months ago, should be much lower now. SenQ always has promotion, u may get the latest quote from them.

I would not recommend Philips TV. I just bought the 32PFL5605S/98. Plugged into wall plug nothing happen. Called Philips service and was asked to refer to another service center (being push here and there) and finally was told that Philips TV is notorious with the power board as it can be easily get burn or shorted. Philips policy has no one to one exchange and therefore I have to wait for 1 week to get the power board change. I should have paid more to get a Sharp TV instead though its pricey but reliable.

Panny can run the mkv file... it has the Divx HD registration code. Need to register this b4 it can fully optimized for media file playback.

So far did not try this out as i am using HDD player from yangxi smile.gif

Panny with optimization, the power usage can go as low as 80W only. This is what i read from other forum smile.gif

I still sceptical on buying any LED Tv yet as that Harvey Norman guy told me that all LEDs TV available are not true LED but only LED backlight replacing previously used florescent backlighting through normal LCD glass.

Is this true? I mean i have amoled phone and i have seen super amoled screen (galaxy s) . Those screens are real LED (self lighted emitting diodes integrated into the TFT. So no liquid crystal is used (no LCD)

Is there any TV like this? or people still buying LCD with LED backlighting and thought they are buying LED TV?

LED backlighting is like all computer LCD monitor that has been around for ages.

Personally I will get either Sony or Sharp LED backlight TV (no real LED yet as I know).

I not recommended Samsung as it give me un-natural look, too vivid color for me.

** Philip & LG is the two brand I will definitely avoid.

Yes,the salesman is selling true.There are many guys out there thought they are really proud of their "LED TV"...Another stupid concept towards "LED TV" is,"LED TV"must be the slimmest

OMG, i used to open my notebook LCD monitor to find out that only few LEDs placed at the edge of the screen.

If this same technology the manufacturer claim to be LED screen TV and quoted high price then i guess consumers are being cheated with marketing propaganda.

I mean florescent has been around for ages and known to save energy. I mean apart of slim and vivid screen how much you can save in electricity.

I don't own, but the color and quality is not there for me. (Every single shop I went, all same output) Beside that, their design is damn ugly.

Finally I just got my TV back. The service center has to do an one to one exchange as the TV LCD panel, power board and control board were all faulty. I hooked up my Pioneer DVD to the TV's CVI Component Inputs (the player doesn't has HDMI) put in "You've Got Mail" the picture quality was bad. The same movie from the same player when I hooked up to my previous Sharp TV the picture quality was way better. I still don't know what happen. I see no different in HD Natural Motion whether its on or off. The same goes to 100Hz LCD. I am really regret in getting this TV should have pay more to get a Sharp.

Personally I will get either Sony or Sharp LED backlight TV (no real LED yet as I know).

I not recommended Samsung as it give me un-natural look, too vivid color for me.

** Philip & LG is the two brand I will definitely avoid.

Sharp already has LED backlight TV in the market. A bit pricey though. Go check out at their website.

Very satisfied with the colour and the HD natural motion is really cool. but had to set it to minimum..my wife dont like the maximum effect... look to much like a "game" according to her..

SD source is ok la.. tried playing Wii using the normal rca cable.. the picture quality so so ...

Saw a lot of TVs today at Best Denki, Courts and elsewhere.

Best LED, IMO, buy Philips or Sharp. Philips HD Natural Motion Rocks. Sharp new 100HZ also pretty good and color is excellent. Don't buy Samsung or LG. tongue.gif

All TVs also got breakdown rate. I heard LG and Samsung has even more... whistling.gif ....In this case, buy Sharp. I just bought my 2nd Sharp LCD....if u got budget go for the SHARP AQUOS LED Quatrron with motionflow 100Hz. It's lovely!

generally, LG has bad PQ. Samsung is to dark or digitalized. SONY also very digitalized.....Sharp colour is more natural.

Current leading brand are Sony, Samsung, Sharp. Althought Pana is stronger among the market but still behind these 3 brand.
Samsung still having picture quality consistency issue. Mean that diff series LED got diff kind of picture quality.

Last week went to Subang one of the electrical shop, to see the LED TV, first I entered the shop, the Toshiba 47zv600 catched my eyes with it natural colour. After that I asked the sales person to compare the Samsung LED TV with the Toshiba 47zv600 LCD tv since this is the best among the LED and LCD tvs in demo. The sales person taken out one 46" series 6 LED tv and put side by side with the Toshiba 47ZV600, after some comparison, I found the Samsung PQ is quite fake compare to the Toshiba, which truly natural. The Samsung colour is very vivid until it become like very fake. And one thin I have found the the black level on the Toshiba is better than most of the LED tv, including the Samsung that we compared. Now I'm thinking to get the Toshiba, but heard the this Toshiba zv series is no longer in production, they have shifted to LED model. Should I get one and don't care about it?

My lovely brand:
Sony, Sharp & Panasonic

Samsung too vivid for me... a bit un-natural. (+ I feel it fast motion is not ready great).

----------------------------------

Brand I won't consider:
- Philip (bad design, bad PQ)
- LG (bad PQ, not up pair with others)
- Hitachi (never like this brand b4)
- Sanyo (The worst LCD I ever see, I don't know they got LED or not, totally out!)

the only thing I like in Toshiba 42" LED is

1. extra 2"
2. Resolution+ (upscales astro SD channel to higher quality)

Boleh Electrical and most electrical shop, LED war price is starting to kick in.....RCP is only as a reference, got my LG 42 LD550 30 October 2010 at RM2499 while Harvey Norman is still selling RM4699 with rebate-dunno how the rebate works....now year end sale, harvey is selling 42LD550 at RM2699 still.......

Reliability ok lah, it all depends on luck(no matter what brand you buy), stability of current at your home(if there is always power surge or blackout, any tv also cannot last)

Remember, cheap products does not mean it has no quality, expensive product does not mean it has quality.

Most important if the features meets your requirement, why not?

Best if you can compare side by side for yourself at any electrical shop, bring also your HDD with your favourite movie and test it out.

Cheers.....

LCD/LED speakers all sucked. Even cheap RM 300 Pc speakers is better. If got budget, just go for a sub RM1k HTIB in the box, you don't have to on it very loud and it's definitely better than LCD/LED speakers.

This is normal...even if you put it to HT, it is like that...the action scene suddenly goes KAAABOOOOOMMMM!!! It is tactic to scare movie goers mah... tongue.gif ...but i read there is some function on higher end AVR to normalize this function....not really sure. But cheap HTIB definitely dun have such function.

For me, i try to reduce the volume after 10:30pm...even if i dun stay in condo....the vibration of my HT easily heard next door...So if i want loud effects, i try to watch weekend daytime... tongue.gif ...i am a good neighbour. nod.gif

I got it @ Desa Home theater @ Kepong with limited promotional price @ RM4699 each, but I got "special" discount by buying 2 Unit in 1 shot. Its pretty decent deal for a 47 inch LG LED high end model. I dont think they will give u this price if u only buy 1 unit. but you could try your luck if you got professional bargain skill. tongue.gif

Well, I wish I have so many oprions like you all in West Malaysia but here in Sarawak, you really don't have many choice available. Even Sony KLV-55EX500 still priced at RM8999 while I read somewhere here it was offered at RM5999 with RM500 cash back

Not sure about this, never seen yet. I check internet and found a small review on it (in chinese).

http://product.pcpop.com/000209619/Features.html

Some said pretty good, some said is bad.

But overall said it is a great middle range TV.

From Internet user said:
- Good in motion smooth.
- Sharpness image quality. (some said over sharpen)
- Contrast not as bright as others.
- Perfect white.
- Perfect grey scale.
- Slightly light lead on black.
- Color reproduction not even, not as balance as others brand.
- Able playback on RMVB format movie. (All China brand support on RMVB).


Just go and see with your eyes and judge.

The price wise is tempting me also last time, as it is quite cheap for a 40inch LED TV. Due to no display set and I not really trusted on China brand, end up I give up.

I saw Hisense display at Courts. They were feeding it with vcd video so the quality is not really good. But compare with my LED when watching vcd Hisense does look inferior.

And I think they write there as made in Malaysia.

Thanks to Andrew & xxboxx for the feedback for the HiSense. I actually brought my HiMedia HD200A media player there to test out the TV. It looks quite ok to me but hte setback was the warranty was only 1 year and for the 1 + 4 extended warranty by Courts itself, it cost RM1200+.

Too bad Sarawak here really not much choice for the those LCD/LED/Plasma choice.. If available, the price will be extremely expensive due to transportation etc..

I got my philips for 40pfl5605/98 rm2600 during christmas and rm 2600 for the philip hts 7140/98 blu-ray soundbar. Comes with 3 years warranty.

Picture quality from the box is too animated when watching avatar and clash of the titans for example. Can differentiate from what is real and what is done by graphics. Have to play with the picture setting to get the results that i want.

ha..ha...finally finish looking at 3d tv for 3 brand(sony,samsung,panasonic).Thanks to harvey norman.my comments is

sony--->the effect not to real...

samsung----->the effect ok.better than sony.but sometimes when the 3d effect is showing in the movie.you can see the double image and you can feel the 3d glass shutter moving.give some stress to your eyes.

panasonic(plasma)----->very clear when playing 3d movies.the 3d efect superb!!!(ice age).less stress to the eye..will buy this panasonic in may this year.wait for the lower price.

Guys, I got a 42" Pana LED FHD TV, comparing with other brands like Sharp, I find that the Pana for fast moving things in the picture, it tends to be snowwy / digitised around the moving item....is this something like known issue? Seems only Pana tends to have this??

Is there any settings I can effect to do away with that??

Personally I will get either Sony or Sharp LED backlight TV (no real LED yet as I know).

I not recommended Samsung as it give me un-natural look, too vivid color for me.

** Philip & LG is the two brand I will definitely avoid.

52 inch ..
price reaching rm9k

i got mine too 2 weeks ago at rm4900 after being tempted for many times passing by Senq shop in the mines..really love the tv design and of course the display quality. heard the price increase back to normal price after 31st dec 2010...not sure true...anyway, 4900 for such a tv is worthy and well spent for me...

no love for Philips LED TV?

i just bought the 40PFL5605S/98 @ RM3350 from Megatex. yes i know it's a bit expensive than your local electrical shop but my parents insisted me buying from there. zzz.

overall it's ok, with LED backlighting and 100hz refresh rate. but what i don't fancy is the menu laggyness. the remote control is quite ok, better from what i saw on the net regarding this LCD TV. (i think the one they reviewed an old version of this TV perhaps)

Those who is buying LG LE5500 or 5400 LED, beware that although you could play the .mkv files directly but it won't output the sound if the file is DTS encoded..it could only output AC3...

Thanks to all the LED/LCD Guru's out there for your time regarding this.

Samsung LA40C530 or LG 42LD460/42LD450?
1) Mainly used for mom seeing astro/astro beyond
2) Used for Animations from 480p-720p(Using External non powered HDD or portable HDD), would be great with 1080p as well
3) Contemplating on using a hd media player instead of built in..need recommendations for this...
4) Can I use HDMI connecting from laptop/notebook to the TV? Would it burn my graphics card in the long run?
5) Should i go LED technology instead? Since its newer and new confirms the availability of spare parts in the coming 5-10years?...
6) Really hoping for good quality audio for the paid price as I'm really fussy when it comes to audio quality.

Really having a headache choosing as this is my first time contemplating over purchasing a LED/LCD/Plasma TV... My main focus is for it to last a long and reasonable time in both terms of durability and repair(Spare part availability)

Thanks alot!

also about UA40C5000 for samsung and corresponding LED tv within its price range?

Planning to get it before Chinese New year..

These things are like computer. The latest processor cost a bomb now but 2 years later, the same money can buy 2 bombs. Same with LED. The amount of money needed to use to buy 1 unit today will get you 2 units in a couple of years to come (1 for viewing and 1 for spare parts brows.gif )

IMO, unless you find LED irresistible, they are poor value for money and should not be bought for the reason you mentioned.

A few forumer complaint about Philips TV, i still bought a 32" Philips TV, i think the color and picture quality are very good.

The $ diff between LCD and LED is around 38% between Plilips models, i still think LED is the one to go considering the color of LCD (using CCT back light )will change to yellowish as time goes by.
LED will not change color, better energy efficient, longer livespen.

oh yes, the audio quality is so so only.

Desa Home (kepong) offers 3.5K for 47LE5500 - cash terms...

Difference between 7500 and 5500 - 5500 is matt surface while 7500 is glossy(reflective). 7500 has a different border/frame, so called borderless frame..
7500 has bluetooth(but I'm not sure what is it used for though). If difference is by 200-300 I don't mind 7500.

I don't know how ease of use are these 'Smart' Samsung TV. I saw a demo on how to use the browser feature, it is not impressive at all...U got to choose the a,b,c the same way as you choose the key from a phone key pad...frustrated very easily!

I don't think Sony EX520 is as 'smart' as this Samsung Series 6, D model...

for 47" LE5500, desa's 3500 is the cheapest so far I could find... maybe check with Legend SS2? they use to be able to offer a cheaper LG TV usually...

tumpang a bit.. between sony 46ex720 and samsung 46D6600 which one is better?
*
R u you looking for a 3DTV...

Anyway.. my opinion on 3DTV... LED/LCD 3D TV is not recommended because of ghosting/crosstalk issues..
If 3DTV.. better go for plasma.. yes.. plasma still hav ghosting/crosstalk.. but is lesser
If buy 3D TV better go for 2011 model (dont get the 2010 model).. Ex720 and D6600 is 2011 model.. other model u can have a look is Pana ST30 (out soon), n samsung plasma PSXXD550 or PSXXD6900 (XX denotes the size)

Oh yeah. ex720 is matte screen. D6600 is glossy screen.

You can ask the shop to test the San Paolo Indy demo on the ex720 or D6600.. its a demo from sony 3D blu ray.. if u feel comfortable with it.. should be okie..
i quote from forumer here.. but dunno who la.. "trust your eyes"... hehehe
Good luck

I just make an 3D impression post a few week back.. have a read n comment on it.. drop any question there as well

I have an insider info. Don't buy 47LE7500. The heat is quite hot and it burnt the panel but you can't see it without using a 3D glasses. No joke! ohmy.gif

I think numbertwo is right... this is not a 3D TV...
Maybe u mistaken it with the LX model...

Oh yeah, anyway, read from other forum, it is well known that LG 3D LX series has a lot of crosstalk/ghosting problem

No no no....sorry if my post confused both of you. Of course I know that 47" LG LE7500 is not a 3D tv but a rather LED TV without 3D. The point is try wearing a 3D glasses and look at the panel. You can see few brown burn marks after a few months. The sales person showed me why he wouldn't want to recommend me this model by offering me his tips. Instead I get LG 47" LE 5500. Thanks to the salesman for being honest! notworthy.gif

Hi numbertwo, Thanks for the reply. Is there any big difference between 5500 n 7500? roughly the price difference should be around 500-600RM?

Many Thanks....

i think the biggest difference between them is 7500 is a backlit LED(hence, it has a frameless border and thinner panel) and 5500 is a EDGE LED if not mistaken...

Good marketing. If I'm not mistaken the LED panels are manufactured by a Korean Company. Its the additional hardware and programing I guess. That make the Bravia looks kewl.

Is this Samsung model UA40D5000PR good? Seems like a newer model, is anyone using this? It has all sorts of connectivity (including LAN), just short of SmartTV features.

Hi All,

Need some opinion here... noob in LED/LCD TV here..

thinking to get 46 inch.. below is the model.. please advice~~ Appreciate that.. smile.gif

Sharp
- LM820 2010 model (going to be obsolete i heard~~ tongue.gif )
- LM830 2011 model (3D, will it be too pricey? shall i wait~ sad.gif )
( both model ~1K diff )

Sony
- EX720

Samsung
- UA46d6600WR
- UA46D6400UR
(actually watz the diff ar?? y some said only senQ selling the 6600??)

REMARK: heard that SAMSUNG reliability is no good... although pic quality is wonderful... need all SIFU expert here help.. is it true???

act the reason why i look at 3D models is i see the color they produce compare to 2D models.. is much diff.. and also the motion rate of the model is another main issue i take into consideration

too much question here d.. sorry~~ tongue.gif
Thanks for all your valuable time... coz i think until my head BIG BIG BIG d.. tongue.gif

From what I heard, no matter what brand, still one or 2 will have issue, after 3 yrs. Currently issue champion is Philips.
Panasonic & Sony also have problems but less. I guess it depends on your luck. Also, dun expect these TV to last more than 5 yrs.
BTW, Samsung has the best technology & is the most sellable.

You mean Philips has the most problem? May I know what is that ? From what I know, Philips has best refresh rate (2ms) for cheaper price. Its going to be tough if their panel has other problems.

went around electronics shop to check out prices for LED TVs. Samsung 40D5000PR- RM2299. Was looking at 40inch.

However, i found out that SHARP's colour kinda captured my attention. But the only issue is the reflective screen (820m model), or else i would have already paid rm2.5k. Now they're slowly pushing 830m (3D) model. Above RM3K (out of my budget).

The model you're eyeing has dropped rapidly from rm2599 to rm2000-2288. Since you have rm3k in your pocket, I would suggest taking a look at Sharp 830M (40inch) price range (2999-3299). I did a comparison between both Samsung and Sharp. I was particularly attracted by the Series 6 Samsung with their online features etc, but their price RM4K is outta my budget. But Sharp 830m wasn't that bad either, though it's a basic 3D model without online features (like Samsung) but the viewing experience was almost the same, if not better than Samsung (my own view).

Bring your own movies in pendrive (like i did, mkv files) and ask the promoter to demo it for you. I played it in UA40D5000 and Series 6- 40inch (6400) and Sharp 40 inch (830M). The 40D5000 can say goodbye already after viewing the latter.

I'm also comparing Samsung 6 series vs Sharp 830 for 46", do u know the best price for Sharp 830 (46") i could get?

Cheapest i found for Samsung UA46D6400 is RM5,060 with two 3D glasses & wireless dongle.

If Sharp's picture is your cup of tea means you should have a look at Plasma because Sharp's picture is well known for naturalness and none are more natural than Plasma.

As for reflectiveness of screen. Sharp with glass is just as reflective as low end Plasma but at a higher price. But high end Plasma which may cost as much as Sharp will be far less reflective than either one of them (though there are still some).

This price war is getting interesting.

40' is getting very cheap. I strongly recommend biggest screen possible as 40' price drop also means 46' price reduction too.

Getting bigger screen doesn't mean giving you the best viewing experience lar. doh.gif
You have to also look at how huge your living room is and how you gonna position your television and seating.

Samsung's LED tv plays the most video format compared to other brands (mkv, rmvb, avi etc) and also if you have the subtitle file (srt) included in the pendrive, it will automatically sync together to play.

Just bought the Sony 46" EX520 for RM3,950 with wifi dongle, after comparing with Samsung 5 series and Sharp 820.. for me Sony stands out in term of more natural color and least reflectiveness from the surface.

Its good value for $$$ and agree with the non reflective screen. The only weakness of the EX520 is the 60Hz refresh rate, where newer gen LED/LCD Tv's will do 100-400Hz which results in more fluid picture.

Hence the importance of getting the right salesman. If u get the wrong guy, u might end up paying more and might get display set. BUt so far ive purchased more than 20K worth of electrical goods from them and found their service and price to be quite good.

I just bought a Toshiba hybrid plasma fridge for only RM 1,200. Model GRR35MD. ESH in SS2 is selling same fridge for 1,350.

Can also try the Philips 42PFL7406 LED TV for only RM2950. Can anybody get a cheaper price in Klang Valley?

If u have the cash to splash go for Sony. Not to say that it has the best quality but it is a trusted and durable brand and also provide good service if your tv is faulty. Like myself i choose Samsung because of limited budget....hehe. But overall im really satisfied with it. It is also a good brand with a good service. I can't afford a Sony tv so i bought a Sony bluray player instead. So i got the best of both brands. Hehe. This is just my personal opinion though. Pls correct me if im wrong smile.gif

How is the Philips 42 inch Smart LED TV: PFL7406? It has Pixel Precise HD, 400Hz Perfect Motion Rate, response time 2ms but only 500,000:1 contrast ratio? Hows the viewing experience for such low contrast? Legends SS2 is quoting me RM 2950 for this.

http://www.philips.com.my/c/televisions/70...=specifications

Is there any better TV then this with similar pricing?

planning to get a LED backlit tv.
Around 40 - 42 inch, Full HD.
Currently eyeing for Samsung UA40D5000PR, Samsung UA40D5500RR, Sharp LC40LE830M, LG 42LV3730 and Panasonic TH-L42E3K

Price is around 2k to 2.5k, but might be able to stretch to 2.7k depending on the worth of the TV.
Any suggestion SIFUs?

Sifus,

What is the difference in Samsung TV UA 40D5000PR and UA 40D5500RR ? What does 5000 and 5500, PR and RR stand for?.

I heard from SA, LCD will soon be phased out? LED and Plasma TV will stay. Is this true?

Bought Samsung 46" LED 6200 last month at RM6050 (model 6200 only sold by SenQ), superb quality, with MKV playback (direct play downloaded movies). I'm a pro-Samsung smile.gif Look at Samsung series 9 LED and u will know why Samsung's technology has always been ahead of others. Just my personal 2 cents.

actually what i've been told is, any distributor can sell any models, they r not at display doesnt mean they cant sell it, their shop is small & they cant display a lot,

the boss at small electrical shop told me that, i can go to those SenQ, Harvey Norman or Best Denki for their wide range of display, get the model #, call him, he gives his best price, then i compare with those "air-con shop" (quoted his words lol), then i decide. laugh.gif

agreed... i wont pay for the extra yellow...
but usually the 4C only on mid-high end TV and the high-end can give the better PQ
so we have no way avoid the 4C technology if we want better PQ on sharp tv... laugh.gif

Tesco usually sells outdated/stock clearance models. And not that cheap also. U want good pricing then check out Legends SS2. Truly unbeatable.

Its actually a basic model. The Philips 42PFL7406 costing RM 2,850 is much better imo.

Anyone can confirm this,
Current model of all LED in the market only come with 100Hz
all those 200/400Hz is referring to the backlight frequency, not the actual out put.

Did they ever say "REFRESH RATE" ? NO.

NON-3D LEDs are 50hz/60hz only. Example samsung series 5.

Those that are rated 100hz/120hz are 3D ready sets. Example samsung series 6 and above.

those extra hz are referring to LED motionplus, or LED flashing/pulsing rate.

It has 50hz PAL or 60hz NTSC refresh rate. Clear motion rate is different, when there are fast scenes the LED will flashes 100hz to reduce ghosting trails.

NO, 400hz refresh rate doesn't exist in LCD/LED. That herts is referring to backlight scanning/flashing technology.

IMO plasma PQ better than LED. Even viewing angles not matter at all! thumbup.gif

Reflection can be seen in a dark scene especially if you have white wall and lamp behind you. Both plasma and LEd have this reflection issue..honestly LED is slightly better (less reflection). For PQ, I can't compare much because lots off shops only concentrating to put LED TV for display.

Most shops, esp in Malls, do NOT put same res plasmas and LEDs side by side.
Lower res Plasma is placed nxt to HD LED to show better PQ with better (lower) prices!! Probably to clear stock of such plasmas?

Frankly, all types of Flat Screen TVs hv their own weaknesses... doh.gif
My advice to anyone in the market for one is simply this :
1. Fix yr budget limit.
2. List best models w/in price range.
3. Select features yu need 2hv in yr set.
4. Narrow down selections to possibly 2 or 3 models.
5. Go2 shop which has all those models.
6. Request for side by side display @default settings & same program/video 2b played.
7. Make yr decision based on wat yr eyes & ears tell yu...
Then juz enjoy yr choice! Nvr look back...ever!!! icon_rolleyes.gif

Re Step 6, I was lucky 2hv an obliging salesperson when buying my first flatscreen.
I told him my choice was juz between 2 models & that if he cld do juz that, I'd buy 1 after comparison.

He obliged and I was able 2make that final decision! Of course, for his efforts, he got a successful SALE to his name!! thumbup.gif

FYI, you can still nego a bit off the listed price. Also, they don't charge you extra % if you pay by card.

hi all,

currently i'm looking for LED TV 55" or above. Would like to know the best price offer in Klang Valley + which one is better (in your view) for below model:

- Philips 55PFL6606 (i got offer as RM5300 from SS2 shop)
- LG 55LV3730 (senq now doing promotion as RM4999 which is member price)
- Samsung 55D6400 (i got offer as RM7500)
- Samsung 55D7000 (SS2 shop told me almost RM10k)
- Sharp 60LE630 (i got offer as RM5700 from SS2 shop)

my budget max is RM6500..... seems like Samsung is out of my range......

Do any bro / sis knows where can I get cheaper price (especially for Samsung one) in any klang valley....??

Also, heard that Samsung will launch new series (E instead now is D) soon..... anyone have any idea when is it? Would the current model price be dropped dramastically after the new series launch??

Tq in advance

Hey guys, any opinion or experience on LG's LED panel? I'm currently looking at this model, LG 37LE4500. It's sold here in the UK for 330 pounds now, very tempting. Here's the link http://www.lg.com/uk/tv-audio-video/televi...tv-37LE4500.jsp. Thanks in advance for any reply smile.gif

Well, i think the thread speaks for itself. Anybody can claim alot of things on the forum behind a nickname but when challenged to provide proof, that person conveniently disappears. Ive bought about RM30K worth of electrical goods from Legends since 2009 and have found their service to be good and their price unbeatable. And i know of many forummers who have bought from the same shop and obtained the same good service and pricing. Actual experience counts for much more than words spread from 1 mouth to another.

If you are very concern on 3D go for it.
If you watch 2D most of the time and treat 3D as something extra. You should avoid it, coz the 2D picture quality is much lower compare to the other same spec panel.

the quality of image is good, however, it included 3D which for me is redundant at this moment.
Any other good quality image LED TV with no 3D included?

Well some say Sony Trinitron can last for 50 years... but thats the vacumn tube era... the LCD/LED era go to Korea bro...

Even Sony buy their panel from Samsung... and they are leading in LCD technology...

Sharp is 4C (4 colour) but Samsung already in 6C (6 colour) japs are falling behind....

Now considering from quality,Sharp has a better reputation.Both hardware and software are wholly independent production.It is the world's top TV brands.Then is Samsung,and its function is almost the same with Sharp.But its appearance is a little better and the price is a little expensive.

hi guys,

i'm planning to buy a 32" tv for my parents. they just want to watch normal tv series such as hong kong drama and from time to time dvds.
Anyone can recommend a good lcd/led?
-No need 3D
-No need smart, online
-Older model is fine, but pic quality must be good
Preferably LED from the threads i've read.

Thanks..

Guys,

I just get Philips 42pfl3507 for RM1580. Add RM220 for another 3 years warranty. Total 5 years.

RM1800 total.

Initially I am ald decided to take LG 42". But, that guy in Legend SS2 told me to choose Philips 42pfl3507 instead of LG.

I am going too fast and ald made the payment. Just want to know if I am going to wrong direction ??? Should I trust his words ?? He looks very convinced that Philips are much reliable and good compared to LG. Is Legend SS2 staff trust-able ??

Remark: My budget only < RM2k.

Sunday, I bought similar philips 42" model 42PFL3507S/98 on at Onking Taipan. Cash & carry RM1400 without extended warranty; meaning RM180 cheaper.
I'm happy with it.

Anyone looking for a 47" 3D LED TV, try out the Panasonic TH-L47ET5K

It is an Full HD LED TV, with Passive 3D

This means, the 3D glasses needs no power, less motion sickness issue and much much lighter.

Also additional glass is very cost effective (RM 59 for 2 pairs)

View angle is excellent!!

Bro, i bought my 55la7400 abt a month ago. No hesitation on my side as my previous tv was also lg lcd and it works well after 5 yrs. PQ is good, even though some opted to calibrate it. For me, i just use the settings that the tv has. For a price of below of rm5k, its totally worth it for me

compare playback on it with other, make sure to ask the saleman to ON its superb HD natural motion +100hz brows.gif

available at 40" too , gonna snatch this at 1st but not suitable for me room

damn. philips TV so worst. and even their service center also..
i did send my Philips LED TV 32PFL56068/98 to service center on last month 15 August 2014.
After waiting reply for 1 month, i refuse to wait longer and direct walk in to service center to check my repair status 18 Sep 2014.
But i been informed that technician haven't finish checking and he couldn't let me know the repair fee.
By chasing this case, i only received call by service center after 3 hours and told me that the repair fee is RM 300 for my LED tv year 2011.
How come the power supply easily broken compare with others brand 40inch TV that i having and still using now.
So that i started to research online all the philips complain..
http://www.consumeraffairs.com/home_electronics/philips.html
and i found out that this is philips major quality issue.

After that, i go through all the solution. It show that, the components that Philips using isn't a durable one. The whole world end user is looking for solution and keep complaint it.
and i source out.. repairing a capacitors is about usd20
http://www.amazon.com/Repair-Phillips.../dp/B00AA55LRC...

And today 9 Oct 2014, service center called me just now and ask me to bring back my TV and send to outside technician center repair. if i not take back, they wanna dispose it. how bad is philips serve their customer by forcing.

Is it Philips service center not professional?
or Philips no helping end user?
Selling products with weak component and bad service?

DONT BUY PHILIPS, U WILL REGRET !!!! WORST WORST WORST

btw... dont expect they will bother u, they only will football game passing the ball, find who, find them, can not, not their concern, no solution.

NOW I KNOW WHY PHILIPS PRODUCTS ALWAYS THROW PRICE, AND NO DEMAND AND NOT RECOMMENDED.

DONT BUY PHILIPS, IT COME WITH BAD QUALITY.

BAD EXPERIENCE EVER.

Additional info for this thread - bought a 40 Philips LED (40PFA4150S/98) on August 13th.
Picture quality is good for the price (RM 1199)
Audio is ok ok
Interface like it's from 2005
1 HDMI 1 USB (ext. hard disk supported)
But yesterday, out of nowhere, a red line started to appear right in the middle of the screen. So quality wise I'm not too sure whether is it just my luck that I got a shit unit or the 4000 series really suck. Time to wait for the techs to come.
