Samsung 's 2021 Mini LED TVs are available for preorder now   .

The 65 " version QN90A has already received a significant discount ( RM2500 +-) compare to last year , which is in line with the global price cut .

The new 8K flagship "Neo QLED "  Q900A will also be made available in MY in 65 " .

Well yea , except we don't get 50 " of QN90A here .
Our QN90A is also a little bit different than the US models .
Samsung has yet to write me back , I will disclose the exact details when they do .
But one thing for sure , 1800 cd/m2 real time brightness is nothing to scoff at . I will be taking a look at the TV next week by the time they arrive in the warehouse .
The pricing has also dropped by quite a bit compare to last year .
A new 65 " can be found for around $10-11k and 55 " for $7-8k .

Yea but I still feel they are too overly priced. The thing about samsung tv's are that they hardly get cheaper by end of their life cycle. Take the 55' Q90T for example, its still retailing for over RM 8K, compare that with OLED like the sony A8H, the 65' have slowly trickled down to just under RM9K, isnt that better value for money?

Okay , at this stage I can pretty much confirm the QN90A models in our country is also using IPS /ADS panels .

Which means it will have a much lower native contrast than their counterpart in US which is recently reviewed by Rtings .
What this essentially means is that we will not get any VA based 4K high end LCD from Samsung this year unless you have decided to chip-in for the 85" which is VA [because they dont make 85" IPS screen] .

Why is samsung making IPS based TV now? Is it because they stopped making producing their own panels like it was reported last year? I always thought Samsung = VA

They have the VA models , QN91 ,93 , 94 and 95 .
They just didn't want to bring those models to MY since there is little audience in the high end LCD market with all these OLED dominating the league .
As for why QN90A is using IPS ?
Because Samsung didn't want to implement its " wide viewing angles " filters " on the cost cutting QN90A . 
Yet they have been advertising on the feature on Q8 and Q9 series for a couple of years , clearly their the best solution was to buy ADS / IPS screen from BOE .

There are multiple reports on Samsung has decided to halt its production for LCD TV in 2021 but it has been delayed . Perhaps they are in shortage of VA screens .
Looking at the positive  , these Mini-LED has done a much better job than typical IPS is .
It can increase the contrast up to the 1 : 10000s at the best case scenario ,  still better than most of the mid-range VA on market .

So this means unless Hisense or TCL decides to bring their mini LED TVs we likely wont be seeing any VA based mini LED TVs in Malaysia this year.

Correct , but I don't think Hisense or TCL can do 1800 cd/m2 brightness in real time . So in a way we are screwed .

TCL had launched a Mini-LED TV before and they barely reach 850 cd/m2 rt . A far cry from Samsung's 1800 to say the least .

So the only option now would be to get their 8K TVs. I guess that would still be VA.
Philips will also launch mini-led tv's in europe this year, i guess the chances of these arriving here is close to none since Philips hace hardly any presence here in Malaysia.
