RU7100 can support 5ghz wifi but NU7100 can support only 2.5ghz? That's the only difference i notice haha

Quite sharp to be able to pick this up. Damn it, a very old tvbox has long be able to do 5GHz but this NU7100 only able to do 2.4 GHz ....

But this 5GHz can cost you RM1000 additional for a 55 inch TV.... brows.gif

Now, we have to check every TV spec more carefully. Don't simply assume. LOL.

Check what is ur nu8000 version at the moment. There is new update released on april and got updated automatically.
Some features been disabled..example.self diagnosis..
Also the update is disabled so can't select it.
Does that mean no more update after this ?

Previously i able to see both option enabled and you can simply click that update option anytime..

There is no reason not to get a 4k TV right now especially if you expect the TV to last more than 2 years .

At your budget you can get This for $3499 or This for $3399 . The Sony TV is a little bit brighter but I don't think your parent will notice the difference under normal viewing environment.


Of course , you don't have to buy from these two specific merchant and I am not affiliated with them , I merely link them for price reference.

According to Samsung

QUOTE
If a menu setting is grayed out, this does not indicate that something is wrong with your TV. It’s because certain conditions for those settings are not being met. For example, if your TV is not connected to the internet, the settings for Software Update or Contact Support will be grayed out, since these require an active internet connection. It is aways a good idea to keep your firmware up to date. See below for some examples of settings or conditions that will disable additional settings.


QUOTE
Disabled Settings

    If Picture Mode is grayed out, HDR + is enabled.

    If Auto Program is grayed out, there is no coaxial cable connected to the TV.

    If Game Mode is grayed out, there is no Game Console connected to the TV.

    If Film Mode is grayed out, the input signal is not TV, AV, Component (480i or 1080i), or HDMI (1080i).

    If Software Update is grayed out, the TV is not connected to Internet.

    If Contact Support is grayed out, the TV is not connected to Internet.

Then something is faulty there and you can't even do a factory reset on the TV without going into the "Self Diagnosis" menu.
Perhaps the latest update did not finish properly and left a few files corrupted.


I got a trick for you to try on , which worked on my MU7000 back then. Head to General system -> System Manager -> Switch to Retail mode -> Go back to Self Diagnosis -> Reset TV.

If this doesn't work then you will have to speak to their Customer Service .

Nope I have not have measured a HAIER TV before but if a TV is priced much lower than its competition , it will have to compromise somehow . It is a simple give and take .
The trade-offs may not be immediately visible but in the long run they are going to haunt you .

So unless you really want to save on budget and don't care about what you're watching , I don't recommend it.

Haha yes bro spoke to customer service.. i feel so silly.. keke
I just need to select any of the source then checked back those update and diagnosis option enabled.
So basically it never appeared because i never pick any source it seems since i do not have hdmi/cable tv connected.
Hahha unnecessary worries..
So its not tv defect, my mistake..

Those who still want to get an adequate , affordable HDR TV better grab the last stocks of NU8000 ASAP.

Samsung has removed all Local Dimming system on the 2019 successor RU8000 , effectively rendering the model to fall into the " Fake HDR TV " category.

The next " affordable " HDR TV title will move on to the new QLED Q75R , which is far too expensive than most people will pay for an LCD TV ( 55 " for $7-8k )

Hisense H8F series seems promising. Android TV, local dimming, Dolby Vision. Starting at 400usd for 50". Reviews seems to say that they perform well above the price point. But seems like it's not available here yet.

" Dolby Vision " is the key here.
Paying for a world wide Dolby Vision license is expensive , very expensive .

It is like joining the royalty club for TV brands , one of the reason why it is only found at the upper range models for TV .
They can do that for the US because they have the market and audience for it . Outside of US , they will not find that kind of market even in China because most Chinese shows are not even mastered in DV.
Which also explain why TCL TV and most Chinese TV brands outside of US are not compatible with DV.


They did not bring the last year's H9E in the Asian region , I really don't see that changing anytime soon.

On the other hand , the more affordable Dolby Vision TVs can be found on the upcoming Panasonic GX800 ( which will also support HDR10+ at the same time ).

Hi guys,

Thinking of getting a new TV with a budget of RM3k. Am looking for a 55" TV and currently looking at Sony KD55X7500F and Samsung UA55NU7100 as candidates as of now. Any comments about these 2 units?

Or do you guys have other units to suggest. I can stretch my budget up to 3.3k if needed.

Thank you in advance.
