    Too bad it's not for the KD55X8500C model =(

    I've been keeping my eye out on that model for a while… Missed out on the deals in Nov 15 for around the same price (~$1.5k mark)!

    • ugoagogo on 28/01/2016 - 16:39

      yeh old model was so much better than new one

      • Yowiefied on 28/01/2016 - 18:58

        I grabbed a X8500 55" for $1654 at JB Hifi two weeks ago. They should be able to do that.

        • AnDyStYLe on 30/01/2016 - 15:15

          Thanks for the info mate. I was just at my local JB (VIC) to query this price. They said no way they could do it. Wouldn't even go below $1.9k. Which JB did you go to and do you have a receipt please?

        • Yowiefied on 30/01/2016 - 16:07

          @AnDyStYLe:

          Was at JB HIFI West Lakes (SA). I'll try to scan my receipt.

          @AnDyStYLe:

          Here's the receipt Andy

          http://imgur.com/HMwd3Cz

          Actually was $1645 for the KD55X6500C.

        • AnDyStYLe on 30/01/2016 - 18:02

          @Yowiefied: Thanks heaps for that, will take this in to see if they'll price match.

        • Yowiefied on 30/01/2016 - 18:39

          @AnDyStYLe:

          No worries! Let me know how it goes. Also got a smashing price on the ht-nt3 sound bar, it's a perfect match for the tv.

  • cpeiqi on 28/01/2016 - 15:47

    Model number: KD55X8000C

    Not as good as the $1499 deal on KD55X8500C. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/218341

    • BFM on 28/01/2016 - 16:21

      Gah! Still kicking myself for missing that one!

    • Gavman on 28/01/2016 - 16:39

      Whats the diff?

      • cpeiqi on 28/01/2016 - 17:00

        8500C is using TRILUMINOS Display.
        Sony: "Sony's TRILUMINOS™ Display comes with a wider colour gamut to reproduce images with greater realism. Red, green and blue are notoriously hard to reproduce, but Sony BRAVIA TV delivers vivid reds and natural-looking greens and blues for beautiful, lifelike pictures. "

  • cpeiqi on 28/01/2016 - 15:51

    Same model (KD55X8000C) was $1499 in this deal https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/228665.

    And Video Pro is selling it for $1,545.50, free shipping to post code 2000. https://www.videopro.com.au/p-9058-sony-bravia-55-kd55x8000c…

  • webtherapist on 28/01/2016 - 15:53

    Samsung S6 for $738 too, possibly $538 if $200 trade-in still avail :)

    • aspirepranesh on 28/01/2016 - 16:04

      Unfortunately not. Trade in is available for only Edge & Edge+ I read. Unless someone can verify that again

      • dmiser on 28/01/2016 - 18:15

        Tradein is available for any phone in the store is what the Manager told me when I went to buy the Edge from last deal at JB.

        • BamBam cheapsk8 on 28/01/2016 - 18:45

          Thats what I was told too. Tempted to go and try but really want bigger screen. Note 5 will be reasonable price on 11th.

        • aspirepranesh on 28/01/2016 - 19:30

          thanks mate. I might try my luck this weekend then

  • Lukian on 28/01/2016 - 16:47

    $1,097 extra for 4k (and likely a better panel)? shrug

    • nick nick on 28/01/2016 - 22:07

      Please link me where you can get a sony 55 inch for $500 AU

      • Lukian on 28/01/2016 - 23:10
        -2

        55". I didn't specify brand. But what's the point of brand if you aren't comparing panel quality?

    • Lukian on 29/01/2016 - 10:08

      I'd love to hear the neg reasons. Perhaps people don't like being told they can get 55" for 33% of the price?

      If the panel is actually worth the extra 1.1k, how about letting ozbargainers know why?

  • brobux on 28/01/2016 - 17:24

    Anyone able to comment on if this is just as good as the KD55X8500C? And if it's worth the price difference?

  • bargaino on 28/01/2016 - 18:11

    Cool price, but can somebody remind me why we want 4K? I can't for the life of me remember what it is useful for. And same for quadraphonic records.

    • Yowiefied on 28/01/2016 - 19:00

      Stream 4K games through nvidia shield or steamlink, 4K blurays are about 6 months away, or watch some of the new Netflix 4K content.

      • bargaino on 28/01/2016 - 19:48

        But why? It doesn't seem to make House of Cards any more awesome.

        • Yowiefied on 28/01/2016 - 21:18

          Well being higher fidelity might, depends on how producers decide to make use of it I guess. I'm sure as its a relatively new format movie studios will figure out how to get the most out of it, as they have with 1080p.

        • Tuba on 29/01/2016 - 18:13

          @Yowiefied: Its probably also true that when producers do start to make use of the tech, the TV of the time will be better too. In the end, youll want to upgrade your 4k to 4K2.0.

          I want, but I just cant quite come to trust that I should jump in now.

  • eddieaus on 28/01/2016 - 18:20

    DON'T BUY!! Sony will release 55" X8500D next month for RRP $1899. It has Triluminos Display, HDR and thinner matel frame, much better than this cheap plastic model.

    • bezanel on 28/01/2016 - 22:27

      So true, TV manufacturers will bring out the new models in a few months time. I got UA55F6400 a few years ago from JB for $1050 with extra warranty around April when new models got released. Mine was end of life series but big savings just to clear it out.

    • cpeiqi on 29/01/2016 - 10:38

      Looks like the X8500D is missing 3D.

    • Lukus on 22/02/2016 - 16:50

      How do you know this is coming out soon? I went to a few shops and they suggested it probably wont come out mid to later in the year (unless they were just trying to trick me into buy another model tv).
