Which would you go for?
65” X8500F or 55” X9000F?

65” X8500F is $340 more expensive than the 55” X9000F after I kept trying to bargain

 

[Ed.YEO]

x8#00f嘅影像處理器低過x9#00f一級。所以如果你注意一樣65寸嘅8#00與9#00的價錢，後者貴過前者較多。

65x8500f貴過55x9000f主要原因祗有一個：量產大屏幕。

Ed.YEO, 谢谢您的回应！我也觉得9000F的荧幕比8500清晰多了，只是当我在看65“ 9000F 的价格高了挺多，我不想花太多钱.. 以您的高见，我应该买65“8500F，或55“9000F呢？

我本只想55“9000，但现在开始心被动摇了...

9000F hands down is a better display. May I suggest the 60 inch 8300F? It's in between the 8500 and 9000 despite the naming convention indicating that it's lower. VA panel like the 9000F. And it's cheaper than the 9000F. Otherwise just get the X9000F. Better image processor and better performance all around.

你考到我啦!!!
老實講，嗮太多錢買頂級機款，你實際用到嘅時間會幾多？
以我一向嘅衡量標準，過咗$2200就應該向55寸OLED機款睇啦。影像處理器幾頂級，液晶電視畫質與OLED對比，都會有差。。。除非你係買更大寸嘅機款，咁，買LED電視就可以慳得比OLED多。

So, are you saying there's no need for the HN extended warranty?

Up to u, if u want peace of mind.. But most of the time the money on extended warranty is wasted.. Unless u sway, the tv spoil after 3 yrs

 

[Gaddy23]

Personally I'll stay away from OLED. But that's just me. Especially if you game a lot. Burn in is real.

for those who might be considering,
got the 55X7500F on 23rd Fri at $1799, came with free one-flick remote, wireless keyboard and mouse and the Android stick, plus a $1 top up for the HTCT290 soundbar

at that point of time, 55X9000F was going at $2799, felt that the price was a little too high so didnt go for it (but seems that the price has gone down a fair bit this few days?)

several places promoters were pushing the LG 55SK8500 for $2199 with $300MC and $100 vouchers, but had concerns on the reliability of LG TVs so didnt take the dive even though i knew this was full array

 

[homedriver]

Yes.. It has the function of the TV box..

So no need to buy separate tv box

 

[PatrickTheStarFish]

have some questions....

1) X9000F,
2) X9400E/X9300E
3) X9000E

is X9000F the latest range and what's the difference between these 3 ranges? And which would you recommend to buy?

Pricewise, for a 55", X9400E/X9300E > X9000E > X9000F...

 

[Gaddy23]

Yes X9000F is the latest range. Where are u getting the X9000E or X9300E? The X9400E is only for 75 inch. parallel imports? I asked the same question on Bravia reddit here. https://www.reddit.com/r/bravia/comments/9yfqhe/x900e_vs_x930e_vs_x900f/

I saw X9000E and X9300E on the Sony official website...so does it mean they don't offer it here in Singapore...and the sony website listed X9000E as more expensive than X9000F...

best price for X9000F, 55" is hovering around 2500-2700 this week?

 

[Gaddy23]

X9000F is the replacement for X9000E. X9300E is better than both imo except for motion as its brighter and really shines in HDR but it's horrendously overpriced in SG and out of production as well so it's hard to find. It's super thin and svelte but almost twice the weight. As for X9000F it can be found at 2.4k to 2.5k without freebies.

i also bought the 55x7500f but was a few weeks back earlier cos my TV colours were weird (imagine everyone looking like avatar characters) bought at 1999 from courts with the HT-CT290.

edit: my initial budget was 1k and was looking at FHD TV talked with the wife and decided to get something better and was looking at the non-android version initially but got psychoed by the salesperson. haha but no regrets. infinitely better than my previous TV - a philips FHD non-smart tv.

Thanks for weighing in, I am still sitting on the fence deciding on either this 55X9000F or 55LGB8, not sure if there will still be any further price drop for these 2 come Xmas or new year

 

[DracZ]

Picked up a 75X9000F for $5999 with free PS4 bundle + $100 voucher paid with HSBC @ SITEX =) I went to best denki @ parkway parade earlier today and they quoted $6250 with no free PS4 etc.

。。。。 I am still sitting on the fence deciding on either this 55X9000F or 55LGB8。。。

LG嗰個B8係OLED電視係嗎？x9000f就算有幾高等嘅影像處理器都。。。都唔過OLED畫質啩？

Bro, not very good at traditional Chinese, but r u saying Sony’s highest end non-OLED won’t be able to compare to a LG OLED?

I guess u r correct? I was at a a shop just now, think can see the difference between LGB8 vs SonyX9000F

 

[Norman Chan]

Just to share, evening was at Orchard Wisma Atria Sony centre looking at the X9000F and the Sony guy do a demo by playback 4k blu ray disc movie - Justice League on the 65 inch screen , using the X700 player connect to a sound bar (did not notice what model) than HDMI from sound bar to the tv. He was trying to demo the difference between Dolby version and HDR features...to my horror...the video quality was not sharp at all and the color was not lively. The Sony guy tried to do some setting adjustments and toggle between Dolby vision and HDR but the results still the same.

He apologize for the poor demo but still do not know what went wrong. I just said is OK and told him next time I bring my own Justice League disc for demo.

由播放機駁去聲吧，再由聲吧駁去電視。間中線材，甚至電視嘅hdmi插口都有分別。
作為燒士，無做深入研究實在唔掂。
