worth, the 7000e is a basic 4k tv. for the price difference you pay you get two main features in which the 7000e doesnt have. 1) X1 HDR chip, for 4k upscaling ans 2) Tri-Luminos Display, or wider colour gamut.

A lot of shops have these two models put side by side, you will see the difference, especially clear blue skies and lush greens

Deciding factor:
1) Budget, the difference should be about RM2000
2) Colour reproduction, the 7000e's colour look slightly bland or flat compared to 8500e.
3) Android TV is clunky, but if you have your TV hooked to a console, just use the apps at your console.
4) UPscaling available on 8500e

Different people have different expectations, if you don mind the less premium PQ, then go for the 7000e
Sound quality is crap for this tv, so use the money saved to get a HT-X9000F 2018 soundbar (RM2k) ;p

After months of survey, will just go for the 65 X8500E display sets, not many lying around. Mainly watch in dark / dimly lit room. RM6400 for the tv + RM6600 for ST-5000 Atmos sound bar. Its too bad that 2018 X8500F uses IPS panels.

yeah, from SenQ. cant really find it dy, all stock kena sapu. Rebate of RM640 la.

I'm from Kuching bro
