Good to know. Those days we pay a premium for any of these large screen Plasma TVs so people would blow up in flames of fire if they fail just after 1 or 2 years. Nowadays TVs are relatively cheap so it's not so much of an issue even if they fail sooner but of course, the longer the better.

It's amazing your Panasonic plasma is still working after 20 years. My Samsung plasma gave up after about 12 years. My next 65" will likely be a Hisense costing ~RM2.5k. It's amazing a pair of my IEMs can actually buy 2 units of this 65" TV. Big screen TVs are no longer a luxury as they used to be back in the day.

The Panasonic plasma outlasted the LG plasma due to various reasons.

For one thing, it has 60mm fans blowing air into the power supply and controller boards. The LG had none. Plus, it is a thicc boy at over 80mm.

Frankly for tv, I'll go for samsung due to display and sound but hisense does catch my attention, love it and very impressed just like samsung plus the price also reasonable 😆🐝😅

I can understand, for people who are into movies and put picture quality or TV as top priority, it is just natural for them to consider better models which cost higher. However, for me TV is not that important as I rarely watch blockbuster movies on the big screen. I spend more on other things or hobbies which I enjoy more. I usually just watch the news on TV3 at 8.00pm and normal free channels such as NTV7, NTV9 etc. As a matter of fact I've tried high-resolution movies on the Hisense before, downloaded files between 7GB up to 20GB+ and although it's not OLED it's quite spectacular already for my standards. I think the last time I watched a downloaded high-resolution movie was 2 or 3 years ago which was long time ago.

The main attraction of the Hisense is the low price and reliability since it's tested for me, 7+ years still going strong.

In the future i would love to try hisense, more like samsung in terms of display ❤️🐝

I am thinking of a 75" Hisense or TCL TV but my 50" Hisense bought > 10 yrs ago still working lah. I hv seen such 75" ones costs < RM3k when on offer at Aeon during holidays or year end.

Maybe I should consider 75", will see how it goes. 75" can qualify as a mini cinema already. Watching news on a 75" can be ackward.

Satisfaction guaranteed, even 65 already huge for me, i can imagine 75, just nice.. Bigger then that i guess too much 😉🐝

I just checked the prices of Hisense TV in my shopping cart, added since earlier this year. I was shocked that the prices have gone even lower now. With these sort of prices I wonder who would by 'unbranded' TVs as mentioned earlier in this thread.

A 55" Hisense is now a record low RM1.6k.



A 65" which to me is the sweet spot, is just ~RM2.2k.



And lastly 75" is only RM3k.



I wonder how low can the prices go.

An 85" from Hisense is only RM5.5k which gives projectors a run for the money..

A note on the picture quality of the Hisense. I can only compare it with the Sharp Aquos as my brother-in-law has one and I have watched the TV several times.

In areas of clarity and sharpness, although there may be difference I would say it's not a big difference. Both look good. The biggest difference between the Hisense and Sharp is in the colour rendition. To me, the colours of the Hisense look much more natural. The colours on the Sharp look a lot more vivid and bright as if it's boosted. I have tried tweaking the colours via the settings but the inherent colour of the Sharp is obvious as it still looks bright, vivid and saturated although the saturation is considerably reduced in the settings.

Just grab 75 fast, worth it 🐝

this kind of cheap tv u can only expect to see the picture but no expectation can be done for picture quality, sound quality and everything else.

Skyworth one of the worst so far, Hisense considered good for people on tight budget 😣❤️🐝
