I used to have Samsung and sharp TV before and now own 2 Panasonic.

So if I buy 2 Panasonic TVs and they broke down tomorrow , the brand should be deemed lower quality than any other brands out there ?


Personal experience should hardly matter if you are going to commend on a TV quality .
Unless you own thousands of TVs across the life time of reviewing TVs , even the notable TV specialist don't have the guts to make such a bold statement.



If someone own a TV and it is still functional after 10 years , good for him/her .
What about the next person who purchase the same model and the TV broke down the next day ?


How is that fair for dragging the entire brand down ?

Yes it is a Panasonic Thread last time I checked , not " How is the quality of the TV base on the TVs you owned ? "

I am definitely interested in you or his personal experience . But I can't say the same on how you judge TV brands quality from 2 or 5 , or 10 individually owned models .



According to the hundreds and thousands of reviews across major TV sites , not one review I have came across that mentioned Panasonic TV has superior quality over the other 2 Brand you mentioned , so unless you prove yourself to be a much more capable reviewer than these TV experts , do feel free to prove all of us wrong here.

That's true.

Why EX750 so fast end of life? Should I buy the 58" version?
*
EX750 is the last of its dying breed . It's a decent TV with a good color coverage & motion handling and local dimming to boost its native contrast.

But if you plan to use it for HDR content it's a subpar choice because of its relatively low peak brightness (420 nits -ish under the most accurate mode)

Then go ahead to buy the TV you like. It's a personal preference.

For myself from Plasma to LED. Panasonic will be the my choice.And I always had a very good deals and subsequently second hand values beside technical support.

I did sell them with better price compares to other brand.Just like car  tongue.gif

Honestly speaking, if you're a PS4 PRO owner, Sony will be choice.
*
I am not here to purchase a TV , nor looking for suggestion .
I have only got 1 intention , to help people buy what they can best afford , partly also because I am obsessed with displays .


I have owned 3 Plasma including my trustworthy Kuro which is still functional . But that doesn't mean anything .


Just like Sony charging extra bucks for their OLED TV , which still fall short in a lot of ways compare to the Panasonic and LG's OLED .
The question here is , is it worth paying more for it ?


The TV specs are hard to argue , the specification like brightness, color accuracy , color volume ,motion handling ,input latency , etc etc .
All of these are numbers , they are not just mere preference or opinions.

Do you think most people want to pay the same price for something that is less colorful ?
Be a smart buyer , not just a brand's fanboi .

If you like a brand a lot & want to stay a fanboi , that is fine too . But going as far as to calling other brands inferior because of that , isn't that is a little too presumptuous ?

The 65" version of FX600 and all of its models variance are VA panels .

since haven’t got any reply from the 65” tv recommendation thread, I have to diy by google & found out something quite interesting.

https://www.flatpanelshd.com/article.php?su...l&id=1520424154

https://www.pocket-lint.com/tv/news/panason...d-panasonic-tvs

I can’t find this hdr10+ on Malaysia official site but Singapore version is available for future firmware update.

https://www.panasonic.com/sg/consumer/telev...h-65fx600s.html

so I bought the 65fx600k at senq b4 SST & hope for the firmware update also cover this hidden feature.

from 55” to 65”

It shouldn't be a very big deal , because the TVs of this range are unable to deliver convincing HDR effects to begin with .
You can hardly tell the difference between HDR10+ or HDR10 since the TV is still struggling with the lack of WCG and good brightness levels.

You will however notice some colors improvement on these TV when HDR content is playing .


There are also very limited amount of HDR 10 + content right now for this to be a deal breaker . Since you have already made your purchase , just enjoy your TV smile.gif

I know right , my eyeball was almost exploding from all the crazy colors popping out from the screen.
Especially when they show the infinity stones hologram in Dr Strange's Mansion , they almost look 3d - ish rclxm9.gif


Still waiting for my 4K blu-ray copy to ship from Amazon nod.gif and then I will re-watch the whole thing again.

Hi.. Anyone compared the pana 55fx600k with Sony 55x7000f?

Is the 55 pana direct lit or Edge lit?
*
Asking for comparison with other brands in their respective thread , you will almost never get an honest answer , just like you are asking for opinions of LG TVs in a Sony thread.

As mentioned before , direct-lit and edge-lit should NOT be a concern as neither of the TV has any proper dimming system , they will have very little impact in terms of PQ performance .

Do you have issue with the TV sound ?

Is this normal ?

Have you try to connect the TV to external speakers / soundbar just to see if the problems still exist ?

hi, can anyone confirm if FX600K model have motion interpolation settings? I mean it can double the framerate of 30fps video to 60fps like the previous model EX600K?
*
Yes , they are called intelligent frame creation / control . But it is restricted to interpolating <30fps content only due to the limited refresh rate of the T V.

The problem being , there are not many HDR10 + movies out there for you to play.


AFAIK there are only a handful of them in UHD documentary like A beautiful Planet & Journey to South Pacific , which you also need a Bluray player that supports HDR10 + ( which may cost you more than the TV itself )

OR ,

Very specific videos recorded by Samsung Galaxy S10 mobile phone series.


I know there are demos out there available to DL , but there is currently no way to tell if those are really HDR 10 + , or the TV doing the dynamic tone mapping for you.
And unlike their Dolby Vision counterpart, the improvement to HDR10+ is usually too subtle to notice by eyes.

4.5k for 65 inches , GX800 ? That is a very good deal .


You will not find any TV out there which is compatible with HDR10+ , Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos for $4k .

Review for gx800, but with va panel not ips....

I don't understand what's your obsession with these VA panels right now .

Regardless of VA or IPS , these are edge lit TV which means they not an ideal TV for darker rooms anyway .

VA has better contrast but they are not anywhere near OLED's true black 's level .
You will not notice these difference in a typically lit room , just like majority of the people are fine with their IPS monitors .


Why are you obsessed with something which you likely won't notice ?

Of cause they are not comparable to oled; between va and ips, va still have better black level and contrast, this is the reason why more ppl prefer va (if wider viewing angle is not an option)
*
I think I have just told you , you will not notice the " better black levels " if the TV is being put in an average living room .

But w/e floats your boat .

Excellent pricing on the outgoing 2018 models. The last time I looked at the 2018 sets had the occasional micro stutter with 50Hz material, do u know if they fixed it on later firmwares? The only thing I would ask the potential buyers to check if they use any non mainstream app that the Panasonic OS does not support. They support Netflix/Amazon just fine, but their catalog is not as complete as LG WebOS and Android TV.
*
I don't have access to Panasonic OLEDs right now but the last time I saw one was about half year ago and it was a 2018 model and they still have it .

Panasonic has since released several patches to deal with the issue but from what I know they didn't completely solved it . However patches did reduced the occasion of the micro stutter .

The newer 2019 models have the same problems but they are a lot rarer and harder to notice now .

Need some guru to help. The default browser that come with Panasonic TV seems to fail. It cannot play the video from most of my online drama website. I can play it fine if I use a laptop. Thus I suspect it maybe the browser need update.

Any idea how to fix this?
*
All TV has fairly limited ram , so the browser really ain't made to browse a wide range of content . Plus it is missing a large number of add ons like java scripts , adobe flash , etc etc ...

Might as well connect ur laptop , phone or PC to the TV instead .

Then, by switching it off, it means the 4k TV is now just like any other TV. This technology is what make Panasonic TV unique right? Well, I hve yet to try it at home since I am travelling now. Can I just adjust it instead of turning it off? I remember seeing this function.
*
No this "technology " is not exclusive to Panasonic . Samsung , Philips , LG , Sony TVs all have the same motion interpolation features but they call it a different name .

In general Sony and Philips have the best motion interpolation among the major TV brands .

IFC setting impact is not same for all models.
It depend on BMR number of the TV.

For instance, if you play 1 source from 3 different TV which has different BMR  but same IFC setting the output will be no same.

I have tried a football source on GX800 and FZ950, IFC setting to 'mid' in both TVs. In GX800 the ball can be double at sometime but in FZ950 all normal.

FZ950 is an OLED TV .... All OLED screens have 0.1 ms response time ...light years ahead of LCD . Ghosting is never a problem on the OLED screen .
