[Official] Playstation 5

I had a 4k60p tv w/o hdr, should I go for a 4k60p tv with hdr?

i have a 65 inch xiaomi mi tv 4k@60hz and a 65 inch LG OLED at 4k@120hz with dolby vision and HDR

yea if i put it side by side, the colors will be different. i watch netflix HDR and dolby content on both tvs. the xiaomi in my bedroom and the OLED in my living room.

To be real honest, both looks fine to me. the xiaomi only cost me $650+ after discounts while the oled cost more than 6 times of it. Does the color, refresh rate worth the 6 times? No.

The oled tv definitely look nicer if u put side by side but to a normal user, it really doesnt matter.

Save your money unless of course u can afford the best. i can afford it fine thats why for my living room i wanna put the best TV back then in year 2020 since the living room is where guests will be. So for my bedroom viewing, which only me and my family uses it, i get the cheapest 4k smart tv i can find..which is the xiaomi model..which is good as well for netflix. No qualms about it. Even though my eyes look at the oled, when i switch to my room, its not a total change.

Its the rule of diminishing returns. If you want a very high quality stuff, the price over value does not substantiate. For majority of users, a non OLED 4k@60hz will suffice and cant tell the difference much.

Of course there will be those hardcore or those wanna defend their purchases of an expensive product that will come up with alot of reasons and excuses to make their money worth and "defending their purchases" haha..

i am speaking on a non biased level even though i own premium products.

Even my chairs i went to buy the best i could fine,, such as the Herman Miller Aeron. Is it really so much better than other mesh chairs? probably not. Just aesthetics.

You might want to emphasise on the vrr portion as well.

yea didnt mention vrr as most tv does not have it. But to make things simpler, fix 4k@60 and fix 4k@120 easier to understand.

i think even right now, the LG CX cannot do VRR on the ps5. i havent check but last year i last check and the feature was still turned off.

basically VRR is like gsync on a machine. It makes the image looks more smooth however a input lag increase subtly, but not noticeable unless you play competitive FPS games.

Amazon's 2 days epic deal selling Arctis pro wireless at $433. Good deal for those that wish to invest in a good headset. I love the fact that it has 2 batteries so no down time during charging.

I beg to differ for aeron. It’s not just aesthetic, it’s ergonomic as well. Built like a tank. It’s so good for my back that I got another one for my wife.
Not so good part is aeron is not very customisable. Different size for different ppl e.g. C for me, B for wife. Unlike embody which is more universal

I meant if ppl here are looking for tv that is future proof and embrace technology then besides panel, refresh rate vrr should also be factor in.

hdr10 on another hand is common these days on tv so that shouldn’t factor in.

 

[jonnieboy]

Where to get PS5 now ah? Still no stock everywhere..?

 

[terrakaze]

Nothing is future proof. All the highest end monitors ya'll be using now be obsolete in 3 years. I got sick of chasing tech so just settle for the best deal of any good reputable branded monitors money can buy.

yea its ergonomic too of course. i have 1 remastered and 1 classic. Just sold off my remastered and now looking for a 2nd hand classic.

Just curious, are you those ppl (including myself) that change phone every year?

 

[hyperfuse]

Just curious, are you those ppl (including myself) that change phone every year?

last time i changed every year. always recontract with iphone and sell it on first day to get the profit as u sell first day before 12pm can reap in the highest profits. From year 2012 till last year, i mostly get profits of about 1.2k per phone after offsetting the contract price of the phone.

Use the 1.2k to always but the flagship samsung phone from mobile vendors

This time round with covid, cant already...plus the flagship samsung phones pricing becomes crazier now..

been using my samsung note 10 plus for 2 years liao, still okay so didnt see a need to change. I did sell off my the new iphone last year and just pocket the profits of about $900 plus.

Nope. My phone I usually use 5yrs or more lol. Still stuck with my hardy iphone X lol.

Then u really stay true to what you stand for. Which is quite hard to find these days.

on a troll level, then u shouldn’t be in this thread. Wait for ps6 to release then revisit this thread for ps5 hoot.

 

[terrakaze]

Anyway it's just my opinion lol don't flame me lol. Maybe I've reached the point of being too tired and lazy for such stuff already. The ridiculous pace of tech that companies throw out year after year hoping to suck ya hard earn cash using crazy numbers like 120HZ, 144HZ and now even got 240HZ. From 4k to 8k within a couple of years.. then what? 10K next? Maybe a tv that covers the entire wall? Or why not just make every fkin' wall in the house to have a screen then next they repeat the 4k-8k ******** again lol. I'm done with all that so just get the best deal money can buy instead of the 'must have the best and latest spec in everything"

Flipper spotted no wonder u keep buying ps5 for “friends” Lol

On a serious note, can’t really bother with buy and sell phone to profit. The meeting up part and negotiating price puts me off.

My yearly changing of iPhone and Apple Watch is a ritual to me… maybe kana Tim’s gongtao….

Nah, for consoles It's fine. My PS4 lasted me a good while, it's not like Playstation throw u a new console every damn year.

Not flaming…. I think we got an honest comments here.

That’s the good part… like my audio hoots. These are the things that can last a little longer than IT gadgets.
