picture quality not as good... seems to be quite 'laggy' when playing 4k?

Colours seems quite dim as well... not to mention the display set had it's audio having issues (checked with and confirmed by salesperson), even at max volume close to no sound.

I went down to see the EON TV as well. Price is great, but picture quality looks below-par if you ask me honestly.

They mentioned that it was a LG IPS Panel with HDR, but image colors didn't look very particularly vibrant. Cannot compare with the S$1k+ Samsung or LG TVs.

I think it looked inferior to even the TCL brand TV's they sell at Giant supermarket.

Just my personal opinion. Didn't have too much time to inspect, so do take with pinch of salt

Thank you both. Was seriously considering upgrading from my 10+ year old Samsung 40". But looks like you get what you pay for.

I saw the TV earlier at Tech Show. IMHO, the image quailty of the TV based on contrast, vibrancy and sharpness, it is not on par with the leading brands like Samsung, Sony etc. The moment I look at it, I think this is not the one for me.

Of course, if you are on budget or wants it as a spare TV or you are someone who is not okok with simple and workable stuff will-do kind... then can go for it... :)

Aiyar.....Prism forever running some kind of promo on their site one after another. After IT show end, still got post IT show promo. Keep on extending endlessly until the next IT fair comes along and then promo again. If not in desperate need for new tv, suggest to wait abit at least until there are proper reviews or complaints from those brave early adopters. Base on Prism's track record with their monitors, 1st batch of stock for new models likely to have issues. Also wait to see whether Prism will sell their TV on lazada. Prism prices during lazada flash sale are easily 20% or more cheaper than IT fair prices.

Depends on one's needs and usage. For me, whether smart tv running on android tv OS or otherwise is not a deal breaker or end all be all. Most folks should be sufficiently satisfied as long there is youtube and netflix app. Besides one can simply purchase a $30 standalone android tv box if there is such a need to run android apps.

A more relevant concern here is this since the Prism tv are using LG panel

It seems like LG are still using this kind of RGBW panels on their entry level 4k tvs. Are the Prism tv using this kind of LG panel? Can't say for sure but definitely something to keep in mind.
