Guest Sime Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) @:) al yes, that stand folds flush with the tv and you mount that to the wall, so it'll be thicker that your average current 4K LCD. Sure, it's picture is probably superb, but the implementation of the audio is ridiculous. Edited August 27, 2017 by Sime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bargain compared to when I 1st saw the 1st Plasma in Myer Melbourne going for $25k.

Buy the top of range Sony LCD with full backlight array - 9400E is out now i think. You can get one of these for around 6K and will keep you very happy till the OLED 77 inch comes down to lower than 10K. I love my 7400C cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankn Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Is the Hisense 55N8 ULED available anywhere in Australia? It was supposed to be launched in July 2017 but searching the internet I cannot find any for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to lean backwards because it doesn't have a stand and the rear section with the subwoofer,electronics and a ton of ballast to stop it tipping forward is a cheaper alternative to LG's wall hanging panel with seperate sound bar and electronics.Most consumers are looking for a decent midrange option and Sony have missed the mark this year by not having one.As for the sales staff who are left trying to sell something that the consumer doesn't want well i usually just laugh in the face at there stupid advice.

Guest Sime Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 Well I'm kinda aware as to why it's leaning back, the fact is, it should have been designed better so it didn't have to learn back. No stand? Easily fixed at the design stage…………… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went looking for this last weekend and was disappointed not to find one.I'm running dual 32" 2560x1440 PC monitors and was thinking 49" @ 4k might just retire my dual setup and double as a good second screen for foxtel.

Guest Sime Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 @IviewHD according to Sony, no retailers are ordering this specific model, but you can buy it direct from Sony, which I'll be doing soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These manufacturers seriously are brain dead sometimes with the lack of logic in new models. It looks like the X9000E is the FALD model Is the 65 inch also FALD? the Sony web site is vague. You definately must get the 75 inch with FALD. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/325340 review here to confuse things more with the model naming http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/kd75xe9405-201706204482.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big time... they love to confuse the sh!t out of us all. There are even variations within the same model range, i.e. some using IPS others VA. It definitely pays to research before buying. Rtings seem to think the X9300E (930E in US) rates slightly higher than the FALD model... but I'd be going the FALD as well if buying another LED LCD.

I love my 7400C Considering how slowly I upgrade my TV's, I am prepared to wait a few years for the price of the OLED to drop. My TV (a 55" Fujitsu plasma) is now 11 years old.

Your safe with any of the Sony 9000;s the 49;65 and 75'' are all specced FALD When they start with the "'Slim Backlight Drive+'' and don't tell you which edges are lit as multiple leds costs more ...

~Spyne~ Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 X9000E, all sizes, are FALD. X9300E and X9400E are edge lite, except for the 75" models which are FALD. However, from the rtings review; The local dimming feature of the X930E works surprisingly well for an edge-lit TV. Blooming still happens when there is a very bright highlight, but it looks much better than on the 2016 X930D when compared side by side, even though the X930E is much brighter. The local dimming reacts really fast and you don't really see the changing of zones when the small white dot is moving fast. When compared to the X900E, a full array backlight TV with local dimming, the X930E local dimming feels more refined and in the end, the result looks a bit better. The X930E is edge lit but has multiple backlight layers that guide the light to different zones, and it actually has better local dimming than the X900E's full array. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChupaChups Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) LG OLED C7 for under 4K in price from GoodGuys. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/326839 Better hurry...4K for under 4K... Edited September 1, 2017 by Sirmorebeer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonGreen Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Looking for 55" and have always liked Sony, but haveowned / do own a few Samsung that are ok. The Sony X9000E looks ok at 2k, but should I wait for the Sony OLED A1 price to drop? Still way out of my range at around $4K. Are there decent deals on X93E / X94E anywhere? I can only find this model on the Sony website (for 4K). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
