Hi guys,

I have a $2K budget (plus or minus a couple of hundreds is fine - max $300) for a TV.

Samsung 65" QN85B Neo QLED 4K Smart TV [2022] + Samsung B Series B450 300W 2.1 Channel Soundbar (2022) for $2,269.00

LG 65" QNED85 4K Ultra HD Mini LED Smart TV [2022] + LG SN4 300W 2.1 Channel DTS Virtual: X Soundbar for $1,907.00

What attracts me is that LG has the Mini LED backlight as compared to say Samsung.

What do you all reckon?

TIA

I would wait for the C1 oled TV sales (one every other week), and invest more in the soundbar. My recommendation is 3.1ch at the very minimum so you have a dedicated voice channel.

All of this is personal preference though

  When do you ever see a 65C1 reach $2300?

    my bad confused the price with the 55inch.
    
    Another option is the LG CS which does come around the 2100 mark for 65 inch

Bought the LG QNED85 65" on the weekend for $1526 form the GoodGuys. Negotiated for an hour to get to that price.
