Protractor on Media Watch Report on BYD "Identifying" Critics and Paying for Positive Reviews

Didn’t make it a bad product. The owner got a powerful, efficient vehicle. Not so good for everyone else.

What new car would you suggest is better for $30k drive away? There's not much.

87 AKI which is 91 RON. You shouldn't be putting Australian 91 RON in any car. Full of sulphur. Rubbish fuel.

An OLED may cost twice as much but to my eyes it's over twice as good. Others don't see it the same way. If you've never owned an OLED TV…

Antique 2015 hardware.

I looked into this a bit further. It's a marketing friendly rebranding of the Fan Grill mode for anyone looking to give it a go. Most…

Setting 125% scaling helps but it's not a solution if you need the screen real estate. Personally, I use the 2023 model for work at 100%…

cille745 on TCL 98" C8K 4K UHD QD-Mini LED Google TV (2025) $5,995 Delivered @ Bing Lee

Because you don't need the brightness, advanced local dimming or additional colour space for SDR. Just get a direct lit LCD that can crank…
