Interesting.. hisense quitely introduced B7700 tv in Malaysia. it's AndroidTV with Dolby Vision support. This model is probably equivalent to U7B in other countries.

I am reading this :-

So at best in Malaysia, you will get probably get the 55" u7b or 65" u8b, which none of these are android TV.

Hisense marketing strategy is really confusing. Every country seems to be different. u7b with VIDAA OS is supposed to be the replacement for u7a, but the model that we get here is B7700 with AndroidTV. probably Malaysian prefer the flexibility of Android?

Okays thanks for the info. Seems they are selling the non-android TV u7a together with ATV b7700. The B7700 is said to be newer than u7a, but seems have same spec with u7a ? I don't see anyone selling B7700 in lazada yet.

Actually got.. it is tagged as B7700UW in lazada 😄
I believe u7a will be phased out soon. Both models are categorized as 'premium' model. I dont know if hisense malaysia is going to introduce u7b since they already selling b7700 (specs are similar for both model except the OS). B7700 might be the replacement to u7a - b7700 supports dolby vision, newer processor but only 60hz panel.

Who knows.. maybe hisense direction is to introduce tv with android only and bring in 8 series to fill in the gap between 7 and 9 series.

Panasonic 55 GX740 & GX800 below 4k too.

But are these tvs bright enough to show hdr contents?

If got 440 nits, not bad. But why so secretive ?

Its pretty average but not bad. I dont think they are being secretive.. is just that the marketing team didnt do their job.. or they think its nothing to shout about unless the tv can do over 1000nits.

Well said. 

I am looking for 55" entry level TV actually.
After doing some exploration, I fixed my mind to get 55X8000G, which is IPS with direct lit.
One shop here in Penang offered the model for RM3150 with delivery and installation.

Weird but true, I get chance to view X85G & X80G side by side in Sony store here,
both are 55", playing same 4k source (dont know HDR or not HDR), I can say the contrast of X80G slightly better
compare to X85G.
My guess it maybe due to direct lit vs edge lit.
I also use my spouse for blind test and yeah! she choose X80G.

Of course X85G spec far advance than X80G, but here I just want to question its contrast.

If you compare the review for both tvs, yes x80g has slightly higher contrast than x85g (but both still below 1000:1) but x85g has higher peak brightness, so x85g will be better for HDR but wont be excellent. X85g has better picture processor so it can show more details like fine when viewed side by side with x80g. I'll upload a photo later.
