Hey guys, most likely going down to Desa Home Theatre to get a 65" OLED today. Budget below RM17k?

I assume the Sony A1 65" OLED HDR is the best TV in my budget?

What other alternatives? I assumed OLED is still superior than Samsung QLED right in terms of picture quality?

Don't mind settling for a cheaper TV because it'll only be used for Astro 99% of the time.

I also see a cheap LG 65" OLED C7T with active HDR (?) for like RM9K as per Desa Home Theatre's ad

Update: I also noticed Panasonic OLEDs as shown below. Any thoughts?

Thanks for the advice bro but we already have a home theatre setup and no thoughts of changing it yet actually.

Just a quick question, the TVs I mentioned and all the TVs these days have auto upscaling to 4k?

I totally forgot about the image rentention and burn in issues. I assume it's a lot better now than previous years?



As the TV is primarily for parents and they are not picky at all, plus it's mostly for Astro. They just like the deep black levels from the OLEDs and I noticed the Samsung QLEDs has pretty good black levels too. I really might consider some Samsung QLEDs if they're within budget. I noticed that the Samsung Q9F is about RM18,866 and the Q8C is within budget. Is there a big difference between the two models?

Parents usually watch various channels, documentary (nat geo,discovery), CCTV, news, movies and sports channels. I hope OLEDs would still be alright and would last maybe another 5-6 years at least without those burn in/image retention issues?



Sorry my bad, it's the C6T as per their ad here: https://www.facebook.com/DesaHomeTheatre/ph...?type=3&theater



Thank you! Any particular reason why?



Thanks for the comment again. I'm actually not that kind of person since I actually do quite a bit of research before getting something. It's just that my parents got some extra funds to splash on a TV and they only watch Astro so it's kinda like not a big deal to do that much research They love the black levels of the OLEDs

Thanks bro. +1 for Sony



That's kinda scary man but my parents do watch various channels on Astro; news, movies, documentary, chinese/korean dramas and sports.

But good to know about the QLEDs. Would you say the picture quality is as good as OLEDs other than the higher brightness as we don't really need such bright displays



Thank you!!! Might be leaning more towards QLED bro!

Reporting in with the C8T 65"

Several questions if you guys don't mind

1) Any way to reduce the brightness of the subtitles?
2) The technicolor colour preset is kinda awesome but have to dial down the brightness a little bit? Also, what's the difference between OLED Light and brightness? Seems similar to me..

Can I play 4k HDR content on Youtube via Chromecast Ultra or must it be using the app on the TV?

Thanks man!

Btw, do I need to like enable HDR in the TV or something? I also assume all the picture settings like OLED Light,brightness would be adjusted accordingly as well?

Best price = Online.... 99% of the time

The first pic could be a 55 inch model.

I don't really see Panasonic OLEDs being discussed at all, usually LG, Samsung and Sony OLEDs.
