Lazada selling rm3.8k.

I'm also looking at this.

If still can find 65NU8000, which one better?

From my time here in this thread, spec wise the NU8000 is comparable to the X8500G not X8000G. NU8000 is probably a class above.

Just got confirmation from Ryan, the seller from HLK Taipan. He said there's 5 units left of the 55" NU8000, and willing to sell if for RM2999. Go quickly if you're looking for one. I can also pass his contact number to those who are interested.
65" NU8000 also available for RM4300 but only 3 units left. Bought both the 55" & 65" from him. Got his contact number originally from @daijobu, and bro @daijobu also bought the 55" NU8000 from Ryan. Tell him my name Faez so he knows about the price I bargained for you guys haha

Thanks Faez.

For sony 8000g compare with samsung is 7100 or 7400?
just now go harveynorman the promoter told me 8000g is midle spec, 7100 is low spec, but 7100 price still higher than sony 8000g
and he recommend me dont take android tv because lag.

Where do you see that ?


RU7100 price

X8000G price


I don't know where did you dig up your price , clearly the official retailing price disagree with you .

Dont think it's anywhere near 'mid' range. No local dimming, 60Hz native panel, no HDR+ or Dolby Vision. IMO it's a really good entry level 4K TV, with Sony vivid color and Android TV OS.

I dont exactly sure why the needs of higher refresh rates...bcuz many expert setting gonna disable the soap opera effect anyway....so basicly the 120hz is disable right..

Because 120 hz native panels can adapt to the playback of 24p movies (which is what typical movies are mastered at ) , resulting in a 5 : 5 pull down for much reduced motion blurs .
60 hz TV on the other hand can't ( because 60 isn't divisible by 24 perfectly ) and causing the TV to enter into the slower 3:2 pull down and more apparent judders .

Oh ic...so in simple term alot better motion....thanks for your explanation...

lol, the price is diffence i see at courts,

65 8000g is Rm 3999

65 ru7100 is Rm 4199

if dont compare with the price with model u recommend?

so just pick the cheapest one?

I remember these two difference are:
X8000G: IPS + Android TV
RU7100: VA + smart TV

Go compare, and choose which you like. Each have their own preferences on 'color'

Yea right ... courts , absolutely reliable place to buy your TV .


I recommend neither , unless you are super tight on budget or you don't mind throwing half of the money into the drain.


There is literally no reason to get X8000G over X7000G unless you are looking for 1 more HDMI port .

Either top up more for the XG85 / XF85 or save some money with XG70.

The entry sony x7000g and x8000g both have triluminos which mean wcg support....while the ru7100 dont...yes its ips but its not that bad plus you got better viewing angle..somemore cheap VA does not looks good...it tend to go whitish even at slightest off angle..

Even the high praise NU8000 not free from this whitish issue at slight angle...

That is the unfortunately the weakness of all VA screens , black levels and colors fade away drastically when viewed off-axis . This will happen to IPS TV as well but to a much less severe degree.


They have got some new VA panels that are imbued with wide viewing optical layers such as the Sony's XG95 & Samsung's Q90R and Q900R but even those aren't working perfectly and comes at a cost of sacrificing contrast.

If you want the best from both worlds you will have to opt for the OLEDs which are much more expensive .


Normally for living room which is usually bright and lit , an IPS TV isn't so bad because you can hardly notice the degradation of black levels in these environment. It is only when you are planning to put it in a dim room like your private bedroom or in a more cinematic environment the native contrast of the TV become more important .



RU7100 is basically the castrated version of the basic 4k TV model with plethora of features removed ( hence the " castrated version " ) , where Samsung has been cutting cost every year.
Always opt for the slightly pricier 7400 ( be it NU7400 or RU7400 ) .
