He got it from SP&K man. People like us that PO from GH still doesn't have any news about it, only that end of Nov thingie.

Just a head up. For those that spend $100 on the US PSN Store between 1 Oct - 1 Nov 2016, they will received their $15 in store credit today in the email. I just got mine.

Didn't that video have a lot of FFXV spoilers in it? I'm in the process of avoiding spoilers so that I can play the game without knowing anything. Haha

Haha. No worries. I already know about that video so I didn't watch it. Maybe others that don't mind watching spoilers can benefit from it.

The RM not really weakening that much. It fluctuated around RM4.30-Rm4.40 for US$1 right now but the price for the Nintendo Classic in Malaysia is too damn high. $60 (current NES Classic market price) translate to RM262, but HG retail price is at RM349. One have to wonder whether HG bought the console through scalpers, which they further increase the price when they include shipping cost to Malaysia.

On PS4 Pro topic, when we pre-ordered the first batch Pro, the final transaction are assumed to be made one week prior official release, what with the shipping time frame and whatnot, so I can say it safe to assume we don't have to pay the the difference because it been a long time since HG supposed to finish up their transaction to bring the first batch PS4 Pro to Malaysia. Even for the 2nd batch, I'm having hard time believing customers need to topup the difference to bring the PS4 Pro to Malaysia, unless the final transaction still hasn't been made between HG and their suppliers.

Of course all of this is just one big positive assumption just for the purpose of having a discussion in the thread. Haha

Yeah you're right. There are a few variables that need to be considered but the difference is quite large. We're talking an increase from US$60 to US$80 (approximately) when it arrived in Malaysia.

Authorised distributors already gotten their profit by selling the original price, unless scalpers/third party exporters decided to take advantage of the lacked of worldwide supply for the NES Classic, by buying it in bulk at the OG/lower price and selling it higher to the outside market.

AFAIK, Malaysia doesn't exercise import duty to electronic products. Maybe the shipping cost, GST and mark up price by sellers made the price go way up. But what do I know, I'm not in the gaming business. Haha

I agreed with recommendation of 49" KS7000 from all the above posters. You get a entry level SUHD at a good price and fulfilled all the criteria for the current 4K HDR gaming. I got one too from 11 Street at Rm3300 after "Tech Tuesday" discount and voucher (standby to get the voucher at 11am every Tuesday or it will be out of stock fast).

That was the best TV buying decision that I've done. You will be blown away when you play the 4K HDR demo movie on the KS7000.

Now I'm just waiting for the PS4 Pro from Game Hypermart. Hope you can decided what you gonna get soon!

Thanks for explaining how gaming businesses operate here in Malaysia. That sure shed some light to others that uninformed such as myself.

Yeah, I agreed. If only Malaysia have a lower price for the 55" set like in the US, I would surely save up my money to buy that one. Haha.

You can download the HDR demo here: http://demo-uhd3d.com/categorie.php?tag=hdr

Try to look for the latest demo. I recommend you to download Samsung HDR - Wonderland and Quantum Dot Display demo for fantastic represantation of HDR picture. When you open the video, your TV will have a popup notification indicating a HDR video is been played. Another way to know is by looking at the HDR logo on the video "Play/Pause" menu. Enjoy!

I know for sure that KU6000 supported HDR10 but it lacked the "wide colour gamut" capability to display the HDR properties properly. Your TV doesn't have the required brightness (over 1000 nits) for HDR10 but it still support the HDR10 format, but display not as good as those TV with "wide colour gamut".

For example, in the Samsung HDR - Wonderland demo, those with "wide colour gamut" TV (e.g. KS7000) will see the sunlight covering the mountain like a real sunlight. The sunlight reflection on building windows in the demo also reflected like in real life. The clouds colours are lifelike just like you would see up in the sky. That how amazing HDR are and no, I'm not exaggerating.

Yeah me too. Still waiting for the Pro. I'll think you will see just fine on your KU6000, it still a good budget 4K HDR gaming TV as recommended by Rting.com. Here a link to make you feel assured of your purchased.

Just for clarification, US model KU6300 is the same model with our KU6000, the only difference is the model numbers.

@starz92 is right. Just order on 11 street. There is one trusted seller that have a lot of review there for their 49" KS7000 shipping and services. Even I purchased my KS7000 there and I fully recommend you purchase from this seller.

http://m.11street.my/productdetail/samsung...ries-7-13128287

Haha. I bought from them on 1 Nov, arrived on 3 Nov. I gave a picture review for them in their 11 Street shop page too because I'm really satisfied with their services. Thankfully no light bleeding and back panel detaching problem on the unit that I got.

Aren't they all talking about PS4 Pro compatible TV right now? Or are those discussion have to be done in the "Entertainment" thread? Welp I'm confuse.

Anyway I think I saw someone mentioned that they want to go look for PS4 Pro in SG. Maybe a few pages before this tho but there is no update from him yet. Haha

IMO, just go for Samsung KS7000 and the most biggest screen if you have no constraint in your budget. I frequent the PS4 reddit and mostly those that bought the TV have better experience playing on it compared to others 4K HDR TV.

I think the praises are mostly on the its price vs. functionality, you get the most out of your money especially if you're on a budget but still want to embrace HDR gaming and movies technology. But if you have some cashs, LG OLED TV is the best right now.

Let us wait for further news from GH. If they really want us to topup, I will also take the same action as you.

I lol'd.

Nope. Still no news from Sony, G5 and GH.

I guess it when on like this:

"Hey boss, another customer PM me asking about the Pro, should I respond?"
"Nah just leave him alone, at least we have seen his PM."

If the Pro really arriving at the end of Dec for GH, I will definitely cancel my pre-order and just buy it over the counter. Eventhough I would lose the G5 discount, it's not worth it to wait for that long.
