Nope.. I did not judge based on coffee shop statistics..And if you think I did so, instead of it being readily aparent that it was merely an easy to digest point of reference.. then I can't say anything more.. smile.gif

No you did not claim panel = TV, but that should have told you that I have some insights into the AV industry and been keeping tabs.. I'm still waiting on your alleged proof of small players overtaking the big dogs. Remember, we are talking TVs or AV equipment here yeah.. and not GDP or economic freedom or happiness scale, etc.. Until then, ciao.. icon_rolleyes.gif

I think somebody did that in the forums....need to call SHARP to replace motherboard. Anyway, if there is no specific needs, i don't see why you need to downgrade. Mine came as Android 8.0, no complaints other than audio delay to my AVR, which is a problem related to interfacing rather than TV problem.

How I wish my order has stock...damn now I got to settle with another brand. sad.gif
How's your experience so far with PS4 Pro? Any difference in 4K gaming? Do you get frame rate drops when playing games?

My Sony TV just arrived today so gonna test 4K gaming tonight. rclxms.gif

So fast? You bought from Shop? So sad...lost another brudder to the Evil Corporation SONY....cry.gif

Anyway, mine is PS4 Slim, as far as i can tell, it is pretty much looks the same in terms of frame rates to me. But i have no means to measure nor compare, so can't say for sure. But i believe it won't have drastic performance impact. Maybe it does cost some processing power, but it's too little to be significant.

btw, read that this game Ratchet and Clank in the map/menu somewhere can turn the HDR ON/OFF and see the effect clearly. Maybe can try this as a test as well.

If you have AVR, please test out the HDMI ARC as well...

I actually bought from the same shop in Lazada..Oh well..

I think PS4 Slim cannot render in 4K. Need to use PS4 Pro then only can play 4K games. From this link: https://www.quora.com/Will-a-PS4-Slim-work-...ayed-on-a-4K-TV

I do not have AVR unfortunately as I am just using a Logitech Z906 for speaker setup.

Yes, PS4 Slim only 1080p, but it still can do HDR. But so far, without comparing side by side, very hard to tell if its any major difference.

I see. Does the TV say it is in HDR mode? Maybe can check PS4 settings. hmm.gif

Your PS4 will detect if the TV is capable and set the HDR to "Automatic". And another setting, "Deep Color" or something to "Full" or "Automatic", i think. You don't have to do anything.

Initially i tried to connect via my AVR (PS4->AVR->TV), but my AVR only can passthrough 4k@30hz and no HDR. The HDR setting in the PS4 is disabled and i can't do anything to it. So now, i am connecting PS4 directly to TV.

And if you enable the LINK setting in your PS4 (and HDMI-CEC in TV), turning on PS4 will turn on your TV as well.

Can get the 4tc60al1x for 2930 in PJ. And with the 300 ringgit Petronas card, seems like a good deal, no?

Yup this is the replacement model. That's probably why there's little or no stock of the 60UA6800X everywhere.

Bro Simonsayz should have bought this....

The spec seems exactly the same...even backlight are Edge backlight....hmm...only difference is it has no Eilex Prism and weight lighter a bit. I will say go for it!

Good price.

And yes, looks like ua6800x last stocks going, to be phased out... that is quick, about 1 year only!

al1x is at least as good as ua6800x, as far as specs go.

Now, will see what new model comes, maybe year end.

My bet will be an 8k capable model.

Honestly dont see point of 8k model....unless you need like over 80 inch TV. Contents also dont have...seems pointless for now. Better to make newer Androids TV with faster processors, bigger storage, Aquamotion, HDR 2.1 with eArc and Dolby Atmos, local dimming and maybe OLED. Sharp dont have OLED right?

8k capable means it can play 8k videos... there are people making own 8k videos, etc.

i think 8k is next since sharp already has an 8k big size model, shud b easy to cascade it down to smaller size tv's.

new models must have something new and good as an offer... yes, dolby vision is possible... but dolby seems stuck up, unwilling to license many others.

dtsx, atmos... can forget it... becos tv makers focus on VIDEO, not audio... and they shud.

they are in video display biz, not audio... they cannot and must not compete with audio people... onkyo, yamaha, denon.

for HD audio, tv makers take the attitude users should be doing input->avr->tv.

and i agree.

ua6800x or al1x?
