55 to 65" LED / OLED / LCD TV discussion thread [consolidated]

[jaydentk]

The last time i saw at Best Denki is $2088 with the player as free gift.

Not sure Mega price for now.

What is the cheapest 65" 4k tv now? Is it Lg615? Price seems to be around $2200

$2088 is not bad! Can they take back the player? Maybe I will check it out at Mustafa

 

[hwaa]

can feedback after u asked?

cos i asked previously they say for LG cannot trade in direct for the gift but then they say can try ask promoter but maybe too late liao promoter no ans.

so i left.

HM?

u mean HN?

i tried the 615 at mustafa, response not as good as ku6000/6500 i feel.

so 615 is out for me.

Samsung changed all their promo liao, now all free soundbar.

previously mega qouted me $2799 for 65 ku6500, now all up price liao. i went HN best price also cant go below 3, even just bare tv with cash.

shld have hooted earlier when promo was all free tv.

What do u mean by response not good enough? Never heard of consumer electronics price go up one lei.

cos promo swop. earlier promo free tv, now promo free soundbar.

i think they can trade in the tv at a higher price and thus the offset is higher comparing with soundbar they can only take in at a lower rate.

im comparing prices based on all gifts traded in.

i tested based on my iptv, direct mirror from my hp. it's important for me cos i will mirror frequently from fone to tv.

615 the picture will jerk jerk abit and samsung is smooth.

but 615 overall looks nicer lah, nicer tv stand and nicer bezel. wife prefer the 615 but when i tested both using same source and she can also see the difference between 615 and ku6500/6000

Oh. Kind of strange.

 

[jaydentk]

Looks to me that the price really went up.

Last went back to Best and saw that the price and went up to $2299 without free gift somemore.

Hoping to get it at $2k or less next month, else will be going with the 55" instead.

May i know how far you guys sitting away from the TV ?
55' to me already feel quite monstrous.. LOL.

 

[jaydentk]

For my case, is estimated to have a viewing distance of about 3m from the wall.

Don't listen to those theory. I have a 100" screen and is sitting at 3m away. Quite ok. Initially wife said too big. Now she say 65" seems small. Lol.

Living room 55-65" is ok if you sit 2-3m away

 

[hwaa]

anyway i just took with plunge with 65ku6000 since the ku6500 is quite ex and just for curve i tink i can go without it.

hooted at mustafa @ $2269. hopefully im not kena carrot head or not by too much im ok.


cannot believe that just abt 2-3wks ago i was quoted $2399 for 55" ks7500 and $2699 for 55" ks9000, i was really really tempted cos price is too good to be true but still decided to play the waiting game.

even 65"ku6500 was at $2799.



now promo switched to free soundbar, shld be no more such stunning price.
