Most physical stores don't sell them nowadays. Now the cheaper end of the market still have a few Japanese brand like Toshiba, Panasonic, Korean brand like Samsung, LG, dunno which countries owning brand like Sharp and Philips, and then the rest are China brand. Not much chance to see Sony TV unless in it's few showrooms and big electronic retail chain stores. Lotus and Big gives up selling Sony already.

When you buy new TV, do you still get Sony?

Sony still sells TV?

Sony > all

They still sell, but probably focus at high end models nowadays. The low end models are very old already.

no, Sony TV is shit quality in recent years. i have 2 units 42" and 55" both did not last longer than 4 years. screen became blank, no issue with audio. bought MiTV as replacement instead.

Still using Panasonic TV bought 2 years ago, after the 10yo Toshiba died

Just put in living room, gathering dust

I bought sony tv 55" price rm 2600. Year 2020. Still ok until today.

And last month i bought new toshiba 65" tv. Price rm 2400. Very nice tv and good sound sistem

If u can notice the difference and afford it, yes

Bravia > All

Toshiba now under skyworth china

Skyworth's Acquisition:
In 2015, Skyworth announced the acquisition of Toshiba's Southeast Asian TV business.

Toshiba's Exit:
This acquisition allowed Toshiba to focus its resources on other areas, including the Japanese market and specifically drum and top-loading washing machines.

Skyworth's Expansion:
The deal enabled Skyworth to diversify its earning sources and gain a presence in a highly regarded TV brand in Southeast Asia.

Toshiba Brand in Southeast Asia:
Skyworth now produces and sells TVs under the Toshiba brand in Southeast Asia.

Nah prefer China brand model cz best bang for money. My old eyes dont even know how to differentiate expansive brand TV vs normal brand. Only choose the biggest tv size based on my budget

Actually if it has the feature that others don't provide then go for it. Me, when i switched from Samsung to Toshiba, the picture quality is different. My brain immediately screams inferior. But after few months of usage, i get used to it and now its pretty good.

Bedroom, cave, living all sony.

I heard skyworth stop collaborating with Toshiba since some years ago. Now toshiba is by Hisense

Nope. Mine lasted 7 years before kaput. Repaired outside only lasted 1 year. After kaput again, left outside the house.

Samsung or lg oled only

Now tcl more better

Recently boughted LG because wanted cuba OLED

My Samsung 48inch already 8 years still good

Hypermarket more to cheapo tvs nowadays. They allocate less space for show electronics

Chain store big size can have more space to show a lot brand. So that why bravia is only in these stores now. Also bravia now gone up market , 3 series is overpriced for what it is, want something better (like XBR range before) need up to 7 or 9 series

> toshiba
> japanese brand
> kek..

Unker have pana and sony tvs

Sony quality still better

Wanted to buy the top Sony OLED, but they didn't bring in, so settled for LG.

Sony low end doesn't make by sony.
Only high rnade by sony.

Rather buy china brand

My sony 65" tv change panel twice in 3yrs...
Lucky I extend warranty to 5yrs...
After tis warranty ends, gonna change other brand

Using xiaomi projector now

Could be too.. but hisense and skyworth they both from china

buy tv? kek many unkers in /k.

young ppl dont know what a tv is anymore. now all buy ipong and gadgets.

janji tv boleh tengok prawn is good quality.

Sony TV still the best.

i ask ah
u guys prefer
if same budget lets say 10k

u pay for bigger screen, sacrifice some colour quality (based on online claims)
probably china brands
or
pay for top tier picture colour (online claims), but smaller screen size
jepun/korea brand

i currently using projector for movie night, really enjoying the big screen experience, i think 130", menang dark room, black out, prefect white walls. only from a 1k projector.

Samsung > all

LG webOS bestest

Hdmi should be ok ready

If your eyes can’t tell the difference between different type of TVs, any TV would do.

I bought Sony only, mid range model since higher range model is not durable.

Tv i will go for LG

Samsung sahaja..
Reliable and quality

I'm just gonna go for TCL. I don't see any reason not to to be honest.

no.
I have 2 Sony tv. both failed at roughly same time. planned obsolescence.

Mana beli? Mohon tanya…quite cheap.

not "could be", is "con9lan7firm".

because the android tv background ada running hisense app.

Both tv sony and toshiba i bought online shopee. Got discount so its cheap

Can trust ar? After send you display unit, how? Risky..

Will go for caina made TV

Who still watch TV nowadays

slight amendment…

midea own toshiba lifestyle products and services not skyworth

Sony are probably one of the last few that make their own TV unless it's super low end ones. Other brand mostly OEM from the usual suspect from China.

Looking at Laser TV now. Don't think Sony even make one.

no Sony for me anymore. my last 70" smart lcd just shy of 5 years already kaput with extended 4 years warranty. bloody hell if want to fail why not fail in 4 years time but instead just over 4 years only kaput, total lost for me.

Sony software > all
LG hardware > Samsung hardware > all

For budget below rm2k can consider TCL / Hisense / Xiaomi

My 42" sony old version 1. No software. No wifi. Bought in 2015 and still works till now. Use it with mi stick since 2018

I bought toshiba tv, the sound quality from the tv speaker is better than the rm3k soundbar i have lol

What model? Nowadays toshiba tv keep appearing in sale day but not sure got any buyer.

Yeah. Kinda riskiy

U bought which model?

50M550

but i regret getting 50", shouldve gone for bigger size

New TV at home broke down less than a year
Go for LG, better

Now any TV can lasts around 5yrs very good already.

hard to find a tv with good sound let alone impressive sound.

Same toshiba model with mine. I bought 65M550

Same here.

Bought LG C4 evo OLED 48” 4K tv to pair with my PS5 Pro placed inside my study room last February.

OLED very gooding yo!

Scary bruh. Sony used to be high keras back those days. Even unkers laff at my samseng and philips. Both 5 and 10 years liao. Thinking 65” MI next.

Toshiba now is split into many parts because of accounting crisis before
Toshiba appliances (kitchen/bathroom) > midea Toshiba lifestyle
Toshiba tee vee > hisense regza (TVS)
Toshiba flash > kioxia (partially own by several storage giants WD/SanDisk/Seagate/hynix)

im using Sony cause its one of the few TVs that supports AirPlay by default

quality wise still unknown in long term, but so far so good within 6 months of usage

Panasonic or Sharp..
No Sony TV anymore after Sony CRT 29" doesn't even lasted 10 years while 11" Panasonic lasted like 2 decades.

Just recently replaced new Sharp TV after old one start giving dead pixels.. Old one send back to store room in old home..

I still using sharp tv

no

Had the same issue. I thought they will pair well with my PlayStation that’s why I bought them

Their life span wouldnt last more than 4 yrs

People said Midea AC is Toshiba. That's why great and reliable. Correct info?

Can sideload vpn apk?

Who manufactures Midea air conditioners?

Midea currently manufactures rice cookers, air conditioners and refrigerators in Vietnam. Midea forms a joint venture with Toshiba-Carrier for the production of air conditioning products, strengthening its research capabilities and manufacturing management.

My cheap X70 is on fifth year and counting. Daily usage is ~6 hours.

should be because my friend using vpn also but im not using vpn so i dont care

Sony > sino brands

Thanks. No wonder many are ok with Midea inverter 4 stars and 5 stars AC. Cold even at 26C

Midea ac used compressor technology from Toshiba for more recent models. But that doesn't necessarily means midea ac can be as reliable as Toshiba tho

sharp not own by foxconn already?

my sharp 2021 tv the remote died last year, very hard to get replacement, i bought a 3rd party one also broke around 3 months, ended up bought an ori one after looking around for quite sometimes.

From many post in fb group, almost all said their Media AC never rosak one, all happy with it, just spend few hundred for maintenance services once a year

Who still buy TV?

Samsung last time quality ok. Now can't said. I got one 40" for 8 to 9 years only koyak is speaker. Change the part then can jalan.

Dinosaur mentality. Think TV is like in 1990 and only watching channels from available TV station.

Nowadays TV android is so useful. Watch YouTube on TV big screen is better than small smartphone screen

This I agree

Mine also 10 year, speaker koyak. After changing speaker for rm70 a pair + rm50 labor. All is good again.

Ayam bought a Samsung. Got Airplay

samsung tv no dolby vision, lock down to samseng proprietary stuffs, good integration for smart things, but the os prone to lag

lg tv webos lag of apps, worst dead pixel and foreign object policies among all 3 brands, bad display enhancement, but very good respond time input lag for gaming

sony best display enhancement and it's using android os easy for hanky pranky, least buggy vrr among all 3 brands, but it's expensive even the fix also expensive

they only added airplay when people started to complain about it, and it was buggy too, still no airplay on older models

Bought sony android tv 65 inch in 2019..die at 2024 last years ngam ngam 5 years (suddenly green screen of death)..replace with samsung 75 inch web os not sure can last how long..

Bought sony oled previously. But sold it with my house. My next one is either LG or Samsung. Better quality for the money.

China ones still far behind in terms of display tech. Okay if you compare with samsung and LG lower end models. But can’t compare to OLED tvs

How come Sharp is no on consideration?

Sony only 4 years kaput already... Rubbish quality..

yeah same for certain LG models too, so i had only 3 brands to pick from which i picked Sony

With my older model, screen mirror complete faolure. Dem dulang, so buy new one instead.

my dad TV dieded during MCO.

We contact the boss of electronic shop nearby my house, walk there get to test all the available TV. lol. They will put a lot of kengchau ultra HD short video, but i said NOPE. open youtube then start streaming the same video on every TV.

Sony is the one with best clarity and deep black and balanced color accuracy.

Ahhhh... No wonderlah my LG no Airplay but can screen mirror. Oklah, can use to cast share screen ayam heppi edi.
Kawan, What's the difference between Airplay & normal screen mirror?

airplay is just apple's fancy term for their wireless screen mirror and audio casting haha

cause my household mostly epal stuff so get Airplay supported for convenience lor

got ppl still buy TV????????

Ohhhh.... Ahhhh... Ic. Lol. Thank you kawan for the info.👍

Yes. Ayam house got 5 TV. Lol

i buy sony still as the screen somewhat got filter and my eye dun feel tired watching long, samsung and panasonic always make my eye tired after 1 hours staring at it
