Hi, I need a suggestion on buying entry level UHD tv.
Budget should be around RM2k-2.5K.
Initially I plan to buy LG 49UH610T as it was quite cheap RM1888 at Lazada. However, it was sold out and the next cheapest is about RM2k in 11street (with shipping).
Now I am starting to consider another model Samsung UA50KU6000 which cheapest in Lazada now is about RM2.5k.
My usage is mainly with Apple TV 4 for streaming Hulu, Netflix etc (no 4K support for Apple TV). I read somewhere that Samsung Tizen OS is good if you are an Samsung phone user and WebOS is easier to use. I am not sure about the quality difference of Samsung VA panel vs LG IPS panel.
The question is, is it worth the 25% price difference to upgrade from LG to Samsung, considering the screen size is only 1" bigger.
Or should I start to consider other model too?

QUOTE(sivanathan04 @ Mar 29 2017, 08:27 AM) Actually both model are almost same for me the colour still looks wash out..bro for 4k we need good colour to get the impact cheapo 4k tv u wont get the feel...lg doing panels for Samsung actually so u wanna condemn which brand now 😋..ips panel for sure will have poor black but wider viewing angle..sharp ue630x is high end tv 50inch price around 2.8k only cons no hdr but dam good colour...u can look for Sony x7000d this tv is hdr supported with android built in the colour is nice too.add few bucks more u wont regret..i prefer android built in than web os..samsung 7 series above is good for 4k below that no comment... http://m.11street.my/productdetail/sony-49...x7000d-20815682Thanks for the advice bro! I've look at the KD49X7000D and I'm sure it's better than the two models I mentioned earlier. However, the price is a bit over my budget. (about Rm1000 more than initial budget) At this point, any tv is an upgrade for me. Current tv is about 6-years old 32" LCD (HD-ready only) was smacked by my son a few weeks ago. Thus the need to replace it. So, i guess LG 49UH610T is an okay tv for under RM2000, and the extra 25% can't justify buying the Samsung UA50KU6000.

U said your budget is 2k to 2.5k and I suggest u to get this dam good 4k colour too u wont be regret and below 2.5k http://www.lazada.com.my/sharp-50-4k-uhd-l...0x-9270782.html if u still wanna choose between lg and Samsung try demo both of them which colour suits u I think u can demo in senheng or aeon like that...happy hunting I think i'm gonna visit Harvey Norman or Sen Heng showroom this weekend to experience it myself before deciding. I showed the Sharp Aquos TV to my wife, but she's not keen on it since it is not a smart tv. Would love to have a TV that can install Spotify (since Apple TV does not have a Spotify app). Thanks again for the recommendations bro!
