was in JB Hifi yesterday checking out TVs. I noticed that although the x9000H and x9500H have better, more natural colours, esp the X9000H, I was noticing some pixilation on fast moving scenes sometimes, esp on the X9000H (there was a loop with some soccer games, so it was when certain players were running) I thought it would be strange that the better spec TVs would be doing this. The guy thought it might have been the way it was set up by the Rep in store….to try to get the highest specs showing. Is there an issue like this in real life use for any of these TVs? I had considered getting the x8000H in the 75" yesterday (as it was only $1998 plus the 15% off for First Responders, so it would have only been $1698 + delivery) but viewing angles didn't seem as good as the other two and I was just unsure overall about each of these panels. We are not in a hurry to get a new TV, so I left it for now, and it is just so hard to know what to get, as they are totally different in real life use compared to in store setup viewing…..although the Hisense Q8 in good guys didn't look so great through their internet streaming and so that was hard to tell as well,(that's what he said was the issue anyway) even though others have said it is great, but some have banding issues
We are sitting between 2 and 2.5m from the Tv and mainly use it for regular use, incl Foxtel IQ4 box, no gaming etc. Want something with low glare as there is a window in front and to the side of it so it can throw a bit of glare on the wrong panels (we have a 55" Samsung series 5, I think, atm)
Should we go for a 65" or 75"? I was unsure if the 75" would be too big, being that close.
This is the problem with TV buying… What you see in store is unlikely to be the same setup you'd have at home. They're all deliberately tuned to "pop" as much as possible in store.
Read some reviews and try to scout out the best option for your viewing requirements.
