Finally managed to get it worked.

Does it mean that the total running hour of my tv is 26 hours as of now?

Nice. At least it proved that my A80J is brand new.

I can.

One thing I am impressive about the new Sony tv with Google tv now is that the casting of video to YouTube app is a lot a lot faster than my old 42-inch non google tv. Even it is faster than casting via the Chromecast with Google tv and it is a lot more stable.

yeah. indeed.

it is almost instant for casting. that's very impressive. especially for chromecast.

last time my old sony tv (not google tv type), sometime i can take forever to cast.. or even failed sometime...

What are they? New features from the latest firmware?

I saw update available for my A80J. Not sure should I update too?
Seems like it is more of adding VRR function.

realiased that new sony tv has very good media player that can play most of the video files even at 4k resolution very well. and it allows to select different audio track as well as subtitle available.

the most suprised part is that it even supports the selection of .srt file to be used as the currently played video and even .srt filename does not match the filename of the video file.

thumb up on this.

this saves the trouble of using my macbook to play the video on the tv via hdmi port.

probably will prepare a usb port extension cable, that i can plug in/out from/to the extension port instead of to the usb port on the tv directly. this can potentially reduce the wear and tear to the usb port on the tv or prevent scratches. haha.

Did not try but 20GB++ movie file works for me.

Could not fight with OLED. I bought the A80J 55-inch at great deal which I am so happy about it. Hahaha. Most importantly it is brand new and not demo set.

rm4,999 (brand new and not demo set) with free gifts. now i could not find anywhere is selling this at this price anymore. even it is, likely that it is a demo set and not brand new set especially if u are buying from sony resellers.

i find the price is ok since latest model A80L 55-inch is selling at XR-55A80L
RM 9,843 which i will not spend such money for a brand new tv.

OLED now the price is ex. comparing to a cheapest lowest end sony model of LED tv, it will cost at least 4 times the price of it to buy the OLED one. but the experience is totally different level. OLED can make you feel like you are in cinema which is something that LED cannot.

so i am totally happy that i spent rm4999 to buy a sony 55-inch OLED tv, instead of rm2999 for the 65-inch LED (lowest end model x75 which i was considering previously). no regret. haha.

i do not watch news channel like CNA etc. mostly movies played from usb thumbdrive or youtube. so i do not worry so much about burn-in problem. even it is. given that i am getting the tv at rm4999, i will not feel so heart pain haha.

size is big but quality wise actually OLED beats cinema. dun forget that in cinema u are watching a projection from projector only.

yes, picture quality is what i am referring to. it is something that not even cinema can match.

not common in bolehland?

That’s no point. Important it is just LED and not OLED I think which is totally not comparable.

If one has an OLED with good speakers I would say that the experience will be much better than cinema. Cinema u need to tolerate those noises from kids etc.

As stated in the intro page, it is way better than projector in normal cinema. Same as oled tv at home (except minus off size).

Yeah. Indeed. I switched from very low end Sony lcd tv to Sony oled tv now. It is a day and nite difference that I can never go back to lcd/led anymore.

Now I enjoy so much in watching the movie on my tv. Hahahaaha. It feel even better at home Becos I have my Marshall speakers as the sound output plus my getha bed to lie on. Wow. Super nice experience. Hahahaha.

Comparing to GSC the getha luxe one, I only lack someone to serve the food only hahaha.

no issues to me. i totally love my sony OLED tv now. watching movies on it every day.

anyone is using A80J and knows why the screen saver will not be on automatically when it is at the google tv home screen?

sony tv no additional warranty by registering online oh?

All the Sony TVs I bought never spoil by themselves before. Only the 50-inch one (demo set I bought from aeon) kena two times lightning strikes.

One time is within warranty period so it got fixed for free at Sony service centre, another one is during Covid period which it could not be fixed anymore as no more spare parts. 

even my super old 32-inch sony tv still works like charm now.




109W? seems like old tv is taking up a lot of energy to operate... haha.
