HD|FullHD|UltraHD|4K TV Thread: No Store Promotion and Piracy (FAQ @ page 631)

  • daming hilig makialam sa hobby ng iba. bakit ganito? bakit ganyan? as if gets nila hobby ng iba. LOL

    Also, kung wala na talagang point ang discs and players, eh di sana tinigil na ang pag-manufacture sa kanila. Even Netflix releases their own films and shows on discs. And Criterion Collection just started releasing 4K discs this year. Eh parang ngayon pa nga lang talagang dumadami ang install base ng 4K TVs and players (because of the new gen consoles that have built-in 4K Bluray drives). Vinyl records nga naging uso ulit eh, never nawala ang mga vintage record shops, and even CRT TVs may mga enthusiasts willing to pay a lot for "outdated" tech, because for them it's subjectively better. Kaka-miss tuloy the days na tuloy-tuloy ang bagsak ng mga WEGA sa pier. If only the 2nd hand dealers held on to a few highly-prized HD CRT models then, they would have made a killing selling to retro tech hunters today.

  • Perfect VRR implementation is not easy lalo na pag may local dimming involved. Kahit LG OLEDs may flickering at gamma issues at certain situations. Nag labas din sila ng firmware fix pero di pa rin totally eliminated.

    Now I know why G-sync ultimate monitors are expensive and often delayed.
  • Need your suggestions mga sirs: oled or full array? I'm looking at LG C1 or Sony X90j. Medyo nabago ang choices after some research - initially LG nano sana gusto ko due to budget limitations.

    Medyo biased ako sa oled pero nakita ko x90j ok din naman contrast sa akin. Ang worry ko lang is oled burn pero baka wala naman ako fixed channel na papanoorin. More on netflix, youtube, at nba channel siguro pagdating ng playoffs.

    O mas ok ba mag non-oled na lang para mas matagal magdegrade + mas mataas ang brightness? Sa sala kase meron malapit na malaking window, ok pa rin kaya ang oled kahit medyo maliwanag ang paligid?

    Yung 15k difference sa 65in model is acceptable naman para sa akin. TIA

  • ^ oled is best sa dark room. nothing beats an oled when it comes to picture quality.

    medyo maganda na anti burn features ng current oled tvs versus those from 4-5 years ago. unless you have a static image for 12 hrs on your screen then you'll be fine. madami na din testing ginagawa rtings about it.

    trust me when you get an led pag nanuod ka sa gabi, mapapaisip ka dapat nag oled ka na lang. lol.
  • @ponpon

    I have Sony X95G which is a full array LED.... I love it. If I could ...I'll hug my TV! I like it that much...Haha! BUT...I think my next TV will be an OLED!! Nung binili ko yung sa'kin medyo kulang pa ko sa budget....so, I was not able to get the Bravia OLED, but in your case, if money is not an issue, then I'll go for OLED na all the way.

    Don't worry about the burn-in issues....as long as walang static image dun sa mga programs na pinapanood mo, you'll be fine. Also Sony and LG are implementing ways to prevent this--so kung casual TV viewer ka lang naman yung normal movies, sports, and TV shows--I will not worry about it. I'm sure in the future, pag mag-u-upgrade ka na ulit ng TV, walang burn-in yan LG TV mo, pwede mo pa i-benta 2nd hand... hehehe!
  • kahit nga yung mini led na sinasabi nila na papalit sa oled, talo pa din sa contrast based sa reviews.
  • sino.mas ok lg o sony oled
  • @cosmic @xander
    Salamat sa inputs mga sir. Leaning towards oled na talaga ako dahil sa inputs nyo.

    Sa tingin ko brightness during the day will not be that much of an issue kase yung mga nakikita ko sa mall well lit naman ang area pero goods pa rin ang dating sa akin. Isarado na lang siguro kurtina pag sobrang liwanag.

    Iwas na lang siguro ako mag subtitle sa netflix pag english naman yung program para maiwasan yung burn-in. We rarely watch cable tv programs kaya medyo makakaiwas ako sa static images.

    Baka C1 na lang kunin ko, sana bumaba pa konti price in 2 months before we move in to the new house.
  • @ponpon

    Naka LG C1 48" ako ngayon. Happy naman ako lalo na after calibration. May mga OLED preservation features siya katulad ng screensaver, pixel shifting, automatic brightness limiter at static logo dimming so hindi ako masyado concerned sa burn-in kahit ginagamit ko siya for console gaming and sometimes PC gaming.

    For me, bitin lang talaga yung peak brightness ng C1 pagdating sa HDR at Dolby Vision content at prone to luminance clipping (over exposure of bright highlights) at black crush (loss of shadow detail in dark areas) kung hindi calibrated. Hanggang 600nits lang ang measured peak brighness nung akin pero always consider manufacturing variances. The thing is, I always use my OLED with daylight from the window or with the room lights on pero kaya pa rin naman. In fact, one of the best anti reflective glossy screens yung na experience ko sa C1.

    Basically peak brightness at color gamut lang ang advantage ng mga quantum dot lcd na naka FALD over OLEDs so kung hindi naman requirement yung mga yun. Okay na okay ang OLED. Pero ako medyo nakaabang ako sa future ng mga MiniLED. I've seen the potential doon sa Apple Pro Display XDR and miniled haloing isn't as much of an issue in lit environments provided accurate yung local dimming processing niya. Sana lang makahabol yung mga TV manufacturers sa tech ng Apple.

    @sem_rs
    Kung LG C1/G1 vs Sony A90J/A80J ang pinaguusapan, sa gaming, LG kasi current firmware ay meron na automatic low latency mode with VRR 120Hz up to 4K HDR/Dolby Vision tapos apat HDMI 2.1 ports niya. Kung movies, Sony is better kasi mas accurate yung factory calibration at image processing niya, thus better image quality doon sa out of the box presets niya.

    True. but i cant justify the price difference at the same size tv.
  • @MrBungle

    Salamat sa inputs sir - Kakauwi ko lang actually from an appliance store malapit sa amin. Mukhang convinced din si misis sa C1. Based sa observation ko ok pa rin naman kahil maliwanag sa paligid. BTW, di ko gagamitin for gaming yung tv, ok din kaya kung mag A series na lang ako? Ang nakikita ko so far na dealbreaker sa A1 is yung peak brightness.

    Good thing is mabait yung nakausap ko sa store at willing sila imatch yung online prices na nakikita ko. Subukan ko pa makipagbargain pag kukuha na talaga, gusto ko kase sa isang shop na lang bilhin lahat ng appliances para di pagod.
  • ok din kaya kung mag A series na lang ako? Ang nakikita ko so far na dealbreaker sa A1 is yung peak brightness.


    A1 specs suck compared to C1, oled not that good in handling motion so youre better of with the C1 120hz native panel. helps with judder.
  • normal lang ba sa mga qled tv ang may parang black bleeding sa gilid halos lahat nang brand may ganun mas malala lang sa tcl
  • @xander

    Salamat sir. C1 na nga siguro kukunin ko, hopefully bumaba pa ng konti ang price by December or January.
  • LG-65NANO75SPA | SONY-X90J-65"

    ano po mas ok sa dalawa?
  • Medyo old model na pero nakabili kami Sony 55 A9G for 53k a week ago, yung LG na 55 was around 69k so malaki na rin natipid kahit older model, maganda quality ng screen and sound. This replaced an old non-Android Samsung smart TV.

    How is your media audio being played? 2.1/5.1/7.1?

    And what is your hardware (sound) config? 2.1/5.1/7.1?

    4K Bluray player or HD Bluray player lang? Kung ayaw mo sa game console, medyo konti lang pagpipilian na may local stock na 4K Bluray player. May mga iilan na grey market imports, or yung iba bumibili online abroad tapos gumagamit ng forwarder para mas mura shipping at wala ng issue sa tax. Yung ibang high end na 4K Bluray player mas mahal pa sa game console. Was able to buy a Sony 4K Bluray player last May nung Lazada sale pero parang out of stock na.
  • ohhh wow, ngayon ko lang nalaman na hindi pala lahat ng blu-ray eh 4k.

    care to share the laz store that sells the Sony 4k BL Player? ang nakikita ko lang is the 7k+ Sony BL Upscaler eh, 120v pa.
  • Nasira po kasi LG 4k tv ko, tinawag ko na sa LG customer service at sabi this week pupuntahan ng. Kung sabihin kaya ng technician na for repair lang, pwede kayang mag request nalang ako na replacement nalang? kasi isang taon palang tapos sira na agad. Black nalang kasi display kapag pinawer on.
  • Ayos yung introductory pricing ng Discovery+ Philippines. P129 lang for the first year subscription.

    Signed up pero wala palang Discovery+ sa LG WebOS app store. Napabili pa ako ng Chromecast with Google TV para lang ma install ko yung app. :P
  • Narrowed our choices down to:

    Sony 55x80j vs TCL 65 p725 vs TCL Led 55c725, which would you pick? Sony has around a 5k premium
  • lahat nang c725 na nakita ko malala bleeding sa gilid eh
  • Sony 55x80j vs TCL 65 p725 vs TCL Led 55c725

    malaki ang difference 65 vs 55inch, definitely yung 65 inch ako. not unless oled yung 55inch.
