QUOTE(KomradMikhail @ Feb 3 2022, 03:00 PM) Cant go wrong with the C2. I cant say for long term review since I only got my C1 since last year September, but it has been a champ for me so far. I'm using it to watch streaming content, gaming with my consoles, and as my PC monitor. The PC monitor part should worry most OLED users, as the danger of burn in is more prevalent over static images, and PC desktop has tons of static image elements, no burn-in so far. The C1 cleverly shifts static element of images ever so slightly to combat burn-ins. And there's also auto-dimming and manual "pixel cleaning" you can initiate yourself. The C1 IIANM has a built in schedule of mandatory pixel cleaning once it hits 3000hrs of usage. I doubt I will go back to OLED TBH. Putting the burn in risk aside (which I am pretty sure is much better in the newer models), I have an issue where my TV is simply not bright enough as my living room has a lot of sun light. During day time, its almost impossible to watch without pulling the curtains. I prefer to go back to LED with high brightness.I guess it's a coincidence you mentioned your C7 which was released in 2017. Vincent had good luck with his 2017 OLED until now, no burn-in. My C7 already had slight burn in signs in beginning of 2021. Initially it was only 2 small logos which I could live with, but as you can see from the pictures, the degradation has been quite bad since then, in the middle part of the TV, and its not watchable now. |

QUOTE(tripleB @ Feb 4 2022, 10:20 AM) I can't speak for others, but I really like Samsung's QLED and Neo QLED (mini LED) TVs. I actually own a Q80T (2020) and QN85A (2021). Both have full array local dimming, and they support HDMI 2.1 too. Only two ports are HDMI 2.1 spec though. Another gimmick they have is Samsung's Q-Symphony, where if you have one of Samsung's supported soundbars, you can combine the TV and soundbar to output sound together. It still can't beat a true surround setup, but it sounds better than if you just use the soundbar. Oh and they are brighter than OLEDs too. Yeah based on the 2022 initial models, Depending on the final specs and price, I am considering between the Samsung QN90B or the Sony X90K. Of course Samsung would be the better TV at a higher price point, but will need to see the price gap and whether the additional performance is worth the money. Sound wise is not an issue as I am using bookshelf speakers that have optical and HDMI. I'm using a universal remote, so i don't really need the HDMI Syncing features.For some reason Sony TVs are horribly priced in Singapore compared to Malaysia. Their X90 series are priced in the same region as LG OLEDs and Samsung Neo QLED which makes it a no brainer. |

QUOTE(tripleB @ Feb 4 2022, 11:55 AM) Are you in Singapore? Is the Sony X90K the replacement model for the X90J? I also bought a Sony X90J for my sister, and I personally think the Samsung QLED and Neo QLED are the better TVs. Better peak brightness, image quality and HDMI 2.1 implementation. The X90J is a Google TV though (rebranded from Android naming), so app support is significantly better. Disney+ is not available on the Samsung app store for example. So if you need to use the Disney+ TV app, and don't have any other means to watch Disney+, then you're SOL. I have the Unifi Ultra box, so at least I'm covered. X90K is the successor to X90J for 2022. Based on the Rtings review, the Neo QLED are definitely better than X90. But the thing is, Neo QLED should at the same time be much more expensive than X90, but the pricing in Singapore does not reflect that. Which is why I said Sony's pricing in Singapore is way off. At the Singapore X90 pricing, its competing against LG OLED and Neo QLEDI don't really care about Google TV, or any TV software for that matter, since I am using an Nvidia shield. |

QUOTE(Kahlamx @ Feb 4 2022, 11:57 AM) Yeah, the 65 X90J is around 2.3-2.4k sgd , that’s the price last month. I follow Hardwarezone sg display thread and I am so surprise to see the insane price for just a midrange LED tv. 😂 Yup absolutely insane price. You can get an LG C1 for 2550 - 2650, maybe even lower once C2 come out. I believe Samsung QN90A is around the same range. If you are based in Singapore and already looking at high end TV around S$2500, the few hundred dollars price difference is nothing, might as well go for the better TV. If the X90J was priced below 2000, then there is a comparison to be made.SG side has the X95J also. We don’t have this model in MY. |

QUOTE(tripleB @ Feb 4 2022, 12:43 PM) Holy shit. The X90J / X90K, for the price I paid, is nice enough to own, since it's HDMI 2.1 capable. Basically it's ok for what you're paying. Pricing it to LG OLED and the Samsung Neo QLEDs level isn't doing it any favors. Did their marketing guys confuse it with their A90J / A90K or what? No. The a90j and k is priced even higher …. I cannot believe my eye when I saw sony price in Malaysia is so cheap. The price discrepancy between sg and my for other brand is not as much, at most 10-15% more ex in sg. Sony is the exception. |
