Hi gamers. Would like to know your opinion about TV or PC monitor for PS5.

Is HDMI 2.1 crucial for the tv/monitor for PS5?

If yes, might hold off tv purchase as 90% of tv doesn't support HDMI 2.1 and oled tv is expensive

unless you're aiming for top of the range, flagship TV models, don't bother to look for HDMI 2.1 in normal TV range
native refresh rate for most 4K TVs are 60Hz only, you won't get any benefits even it came with HDMI 2.1

and for monitor, 4K monitors are very expensive as well, a 4K/144Hz monitor still pretty rare nowadays in M'sia

IMO, any mid range branded 4K TV should be good enough for PS5, aim for Samsung, LG or Sony

That's the thing. I noticed cheapest tv model is LG C9 oled tv with HDMI 2.1 which is around RM8k now in Lazada

Ces 2020 announced 48" Oled but not sure the full spec yet.

I'm thinking of Panasonic gx 740 tv.

Pointless of getting a TV this time of the year. When the PS5 is expected to come out Holiday this year. Best to wait as long as Black Friday to get the best TV deal. Worse pricing atm.

My opinion, 10.10 sales is even better than black Friday sales here in 2019.

Not sure about TVs though

Not for high end tvs, only normal tvs good on those kind of sale. Black Friday sales in Malaysia sadly need to go to stores to get best deal, online sale they show normal only laugh.gif Usually I go to Harvey Norman, they have really good TV deals when Black Friday. They restock a lot as well just for that day, because most will be sold.

Need to wait and see what game titles launch for PS5. I'm in no hurry to get it. First year usually overpriced anyway.

Didn't know that about black Friday sales. TV now not for game console only, Netflix and YouTube too.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Still will be the leader of home entertainment just like how apple leads the mobile market . Eg. Airpods

70 USD which is almost RM300 for AAA games. Is that okay for you?
