Quick question: Did LG B7 65'' enter the Malaysian market? Could only find the 55'' in online stores and forums.

Thanks but that is for C7 65''. Looking for B7 65''. I know that they're pretty much the same TV with different stand design, but overseas the B7 is slightly cheaper than C7, which is why I'm wondering if the 65'' is available here.

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?

You can get the newer Sony A8F 65'' with your budget.

Slightly 'superior' picture quality, but OLED comes with the disadvantage of image retention and burn-in. Reviews for Samsung Q9FN shows that it has amazing picture quality close to OLEDs

This relate to the previous points, if you're just watching Astro, especially sports or channels with fixed displays (eg channel's name) then you shouldn't be getting an OLED. Not saying it will definitely happen but it's risk that OLED owners have to keep in mind.

Not to mention that your budget is kind of an overkill just for your purpose. Unless you're planning to game or start watching 4k blurays then you should just get a cheaper LED/QLED tv, but if you just want the best TV out there in case you change your mind then that's up to you.

Look at Desa's FB as they posted a recent Samsung promo that gets you a free soundbar and bluray player for the new QLED TVs

Are you sure it's C7 and not C6? I doubt C7's price has reached below RM11k yet

Update: I also noticed Panasonic OLEDs as shown below. Any thoughts?
Ignore brands other than LG & Sony if you're getting an OLED

My suggestion is that you should do more research before rushing getting one, because asking these questions the day you plan to buy one does make it seem that you haven't done enough research yet (don't take this negatively). Rtings.com and HDTVtest on youtube is a good place to start, and HDTVtest have posted comparison videos between C8-A8F and C8-Q9FN

Huge bargain, but does sound a bit too good to be true though. Mind sharing where you saw this promo?

Just got a 65'' C8 biggrin.gif

Anyone knows if anime industry uses the D65 color standard? I have a Your Name 4k HDR blu-ray and I'd like to watch it on the settings that present the colors accurately as intended by the creators. Would Technicolor Expert be the best mode to watch it?

What picture modes are you guys using to watch SDR and HDR anime?

congratulations. May I know what price do you paid? Where to buy your tv.  All the movie should be use D65 color standard.  Technicolor mode is good choice for both SDR & HDR movie.
