A decent tv for this size, but not as good as Q6FN. Just nice for bedroom use.

Do they sell the Q6FN 49” in Malaysia? Price?

Sold out bro

Tried long & hard to find the NU8000 but to no avail. So I guess I have to get the current models. Right now the choices are the 49” Q60 & the Sony X85F 55”. Not too sure about the other models under RM4k. My knowledge about TV is very limited as opposed to PC hardware haha.

Is Dolby Vision available on midrange TV, or only OLED?

Panasonic's new GX800 is compatible with Dolby Vision too . 55" is below $4k now.

Thanks! Looking at it now. Very promising. Are local dimming models much more expensive?

Yes because you have to install additional hardware on the LED Array , be it full array or Edge lit .

just notice panasonic gx800. affordable price for dolby vision support and local dimming.

saw this in Panasonic website about the gx800...does it mean gx800 only have HDCP1.4 but not 2.2? =.=

The majority of 4K Blu-ray discs require HDCP2.2 on TV to play back HDR, whereas the HDMI input on this TV support only HDCP1.4; accordingly not all HDR contents are guaranteed to be enjoyed on the TV.

Hi sifoo.

Looking for 55" 4k tv around 2k.

I've found a deal of Samsung nu7100 at 2.1k and Sony X7000f at 2k. Which one should I go for? I've read Samsung has better contrast due to it's VA panel but Sony has better color?

Thanks in advance.

It would be foolish of them to advertise something that doesn't work right out of the box .
HDR10 (technicolor included ) , HDR10+ , Dolby Vision and HLG pretty much made up for 99% of the HDR content on the market . All of them are verified to be working on this TV.


Their specification sheets have also listed this specific TV model have HDCP 2.2 compliant ports , the little note at bottom serve more as a precaution of sorts .

Here are some pictures of the TV playing 4K HDR game on PS4 pro ( which require HDCP 2.2 COMPLIANT HDMI ports) .

Get the newer Sony X7000G instead , just released 2 months ago.

Nice! Are you using this tv? Any comment or input? Currently I’m looking at lg sm9000, Sony x8500g and Panasonic gx800, I think lg is the most expensive among them...oled will out out of topic because I don’t want burnin issue... Thanks again

Need help from Sifu’s. I’m looking for a new 65” TV that is future proofed for streaming Apple TV+, Disney+, HBO Max, Netflix, YouTube etc. That TV is mostly used by the parents, and my kids to watch K-drama on Viu (Using Android box now), or YouTube/Netflix, so it has to be easy to navigate and not have to go through complicated menus and settings. Budget is below RM4K.

Lazada now is having their 9.9 sale and the Samsung NU7100 is going for RM3,059, and if I’m not mistaken that has AirPlay 2. Should I just get that and AirPlay all the streaming content from an iPhone/iPad? Or are there better solutions? Thanks in advance 🙏

Is Sony 55X8000G worth to buy if below 3k?

How is the review for this tv? Is that got big different compare to X7000G

Sony numbering is just bloody confusing. Are these the same thing ? X80G, X800G, X8000G ?

I think yes, I just found out X8000G different with X7000G is Android TV vs Smart TV. Different seem around RM500. Should I go with X8000G?

Or that is others different between this 2 model?

I think the X7000G and X8000G are all abang adik more or less the same. Perhaps X8000G slightly better. Still just an entry level 4k TV.

I don't own the TV but I got a chance to tinker around the TV thanks to a generous friend .

The SM9000 is obviously , quite a bit better than both XG85 and GX800 ( especially in dark room ) because it features a full array local dimming system .

I think GX800 is the new sweet spot for mid range TV in Malaysia atm since NU8000 has been discontinued .

It is decently bright ( 400-500 nits ++) , very natural ( and most importantly , Accurate ) color reproduction among the TVs in this price range . Supporting both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision is also a plus .
You will not find any better TV at this price range beside NU8000 or when Q70R / Q75R getting a massive discount , not in Malaysia at least .

X8000G is the successor of the not so well received X8000E back from Sony's 2017 release .

There aren't much difference between the two since Sony is being generous with their basic TV model this year , except for a few minor features like X8000G has bluetooth support , X8000g has 4 HDMI ports while X70G has 3 .
