Dear all,
My Samsung TV just spoilt.

Looking for a replacement and was thinking to get the Sony Android TV.
Considering the 55 inch X8000C and the Sharp 58 inch UE630X.

Any comments on this 2 and which would be value for money.
This in advance.

Just a brief update, booked my Sharp UE630X yesterday at Taipan USJ.

One of the shop had a canopy promoting Sharp TV's and I saw the unit.
Happy with the PQ after they play back some of my sample video and all the features, so just grab it.
Didn't bother with the Sony anymore bcos it is more expensive.

Unit arriving on Monday evening

Yup, I bought from that shop for rm5.3k for 58".
The addition 3 years warranty makes it more worth then the other shop selling at Rm5k.
Another guy was there and was also looking at the same deal.
In the end both of us grab this as we feel paying rm300 plus for additional 3 years of warranty is worth it. So got a 2 + 3 years warranty. Total 5 years warranty.
Somemore the warranty is direct from the Manufacture.

Also bought a gas stove to replace a faulty one at home. So got maximum discount on that.

Will share later the week once I get it on Monday.

The main factor was my TV at home is out of order
It's already been more than a week.
Parent and kids are pressuring me to get a new one

So i told the sales guy I buy what's available in stock....

Not really an audio/visual guy, just wanted something with good PQ and preferably with 4K to future proof it.
Was looking at Sony when a friend to me to consider Sharp.
Then saw Sharp had a canopy promoting their UE630 and was very happy with the PQ.
Took some of my BRay CD for them to play back and it was really nice.

guess Sharp was at the right place and right time to attract me.
Thinking of getting the 50" but since my existing one is already 50" decided to for the 58".
Moreover, 50" don't have the extra 3 years warranty.

The warranty cert i got clearly states 2+3 years for my model.
So i guess it covers exactly what the initial 2 years cover is for the extra 3 years.
Anyway, i hope i never need to use it but if it comes, i'll know if this is worth it or not.

So 5 years warranty, acceptable PQ, available stock, only slightly over budget (was thinking to spend rm4.5k oni) and from a reputable Japanese brand, i was told the panels comes direct from Japan, fully features pack, i guess it should be good enough for me...

now, maybe have to upgrade my unifi bandwidth and sign up for Netflix.....

Got my TV last night around 9.00pm.
Delay by the rain.

Had trouble also with the wall mounting bracket screws.
They are too big and won't fit the sharp tv screw holes.
Had to setup the TV on the tv cabinet and it barely fit.
Will need to look for screws...sigh

So far very happy with the PQ using Hypptv from unifi.
PQ on Dreamworks HD channel is great and the kids love it.

Haven't play with any setting yet.
Just setup the google account and the process was smooth.
The remote with touch pad is nice to use and quite responsive.



Overall

Hi,
Your tv arrived?
Can post some settings.

I haven't had the time to play with my setting.
Will try during the coming long weekend.

Finally manage to wall mount my UE630X after calling Sharp factory in Shah Alam.
Very nice service from their customers support and they even gave me the 4 screws required.

Managed to spend some time with the TV and notice for some bright scene, there is this foggy effect. It's like there is a fog on the picture. Not sure how to explain.
It is very very minor and is only slightly visible on certain bright scene.
Try playing with the settings for gamma and it improved abit. Will need to try more settings.

Otherwise everything is superb.

i don't have netflix account and my unifi is only 5mbps... not sure if it's worth it
I know it is dame nice to watch in 4k but is there enough contents on netflix to justify the subscription and unifi upgrade?

Any comments?

Noted.
Just found out u need to subscribe for the top package in order to enjoy UHD.
I'll hold first for now until I'm abit more comfortable with the monthly commitment.
Just spend on the TV, need a bit time to recover otherwise the bleeding won't stop.

Any comments on the TV setting?

Ok, since everyone is asking me to use the free trial, will give it a go.
Hope I don't get addicted...

ok, signed up for netflix free trial over the weekend ....

try watching daredevil 4k and it played even tho i'm only on unifi 5mbps.
but PQ i don't think it is 4k but still very very good...

now addicted to it.... better cancel while the addiction is not too great....

thks for all the info..

Happy hunting...

So far, I'm very happy with my UE630X.
