QUOTE(orangbulu @ Feb 3 2022, 02:42 PM) Looks like I will be shopping for a 2022 model as my LG C7 OLED is dead. With the panel replacement costs, its essentially the price of a new TV. Any LED models that would be worth looking out for?    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. |

QUOTE(orangbulu @ Feb 4 2022, 11:14 AM) 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. 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. |

QUOTE(Kahlamx @ Feb 4 2022, 12:01 PM) My understanding is that Samsung TV always don’t track PQ EOTF 1:1 accurately. Normally their TVs always over brighten and black floor level also raised. I still would want to own one of the QN90 series though if the smaller sizes are VA in Malaysia side. I won't dispute that. Samsung likes their picture to look very saturated, often making it look unnatural. Having said that, I like that the TV can go for that brighter look if you prefer. You can always tweak the settings to your liking. For gaming though, they are great. None of that response lag if using VRR or ALLM. I just wish Samsung would support Dolby Vision someday. |

QUOTE(orangbulu @ Feb 4 2022, 12:25 PM) 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 QLED I don't really care about Google TV, or any TV software for that matter, since I am using an Nvidia shield. 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? |

QUOTE(orangbulu @ Feb 4 2022, 12:52 PM) 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. Then let's just call it the "Sony tax" or some shit. It's expensive just for the fact it's a Sony. Reminds me when I wanted a Sony Wega no matter what, even if there are similiar alternatives like Panasonic Tau. It was like a full 1K difference. |

QUOTE(nurashidnm @ Jul 10 2023, 01:16 AM) Anybody here using it with Prism+ QE TV to play PS5? Any comment on that tv? I have never used a Prism+ TV, but I once talked to one of the staff at Prism+ Sunway Pyramid. I was asking him about the TV capabilities, like VRR, HDR etc. He couldn't answer some of the questions directly, but he said I can bring my console or PC to test it at the shop. So that I can test out and see for myself. You could try bringing your PS5 to the shop and test it yourself. |

QUOTE(Max2006 @ Aug 7 2023, 02:11 PM) No need to think so much. If purely for gaming, just go for lg c/g series. 4 HDMI 2.1 max bandwidth. You can go all in at the same time, such as using ps5, xbox, PC, plus e-arc speaker. All 4 ports full power simultaneously. Only LG provides 4 hdmi 2.1. If you are gamer, this is the way. End of story. Since the c3/g3 series are out, now is the good time to buy the old model c2/g2. Just grab one before the stock habis. But if you also using the tv for movies/dramas, then that's another story to tell. Samsung Neo QLED TVs (and specific QLED TVs) starting from 2022 also has 4 HDMI 2.1 ports. I have a 2021 Neo QLED, which still had only 2 HDMI 2.1 ports. Then I bought a 2023 model, and this time all 4 ports are HDMI 2.1. |
