    So many tellies….sonmany prices… So hard to chose just one.
    Still don't know when to jump and make the outlay for next big price purchase

      It's not a bargain if you replace it with every minor upgrade. When the new tele does something that you really want and have seen with your own eyes, or when your old tele dies, that's when you pounce on a bargain.

        TCL 50" died in April. Lounge is empty, sofa needs companion…..
        Looking for a bargain.

        • syousef on 22/09/2016 - 06:22

          Fair enough then. Good luck purchasing. Hope you get an awesome bargain.

        • battler on 22/09/2016 - 11:34

          No TV since April… wow, you must have a kid on the way now ;)

  • FreoIsaac on 22/09/2016 - 05:13

    do any of these screens support 10-bit HDR display instead of the 8-bit HDR that early 4K tv's have had? if i'm really going to upgrade to 4K i want the latest standard

    • nubzy on 22/09/2016 - 07:41

      Should have got LG UH770T 55" in the eBay deal yesterday for $1699. It has HdR10, 200hz and 4K.

    • smpantsonfire on 22/09/2016 - 08:37

      I dare say the X9300D would be.

    Damn just bought the https://www.jbhifi.com.au/tv-home-entertainment/hd-televisio….

    Any chance of JB refunding $195 difference?

    • reshre8 on 22/09/2016 - 07:50

      Unless you report it damaged …. nah .. I thought jb does price guarantee for 2 weeks or 3 weeks or something. Might be wrong.

      • gccmelb on 22/09/2016 - 07:59

        They have no official policy but reports of some people getting the difference. Only bought the TV last Sunday.

        • AlanHB on 22/09/2016 - 09:22

          I got a refund for price difference due to sale on a laptop a couple of years ago (from JB Hifi). Worth a shot :)

    • Seven8Nine on 22/09/2016 - 08:06

      Check ur credit card .. if offer price guarantee type benefit / purchase protection

      • gccmelb on 22/09/2016 - 08:09

        Mainly gift cards and a small amount on paypal.

        • Seven8Nine on 22/09/2016 - 09:20
          +1

          then no harm contacting their head office via email / phone, explaining your situation and request (+ seeking advise) to offer you a refund of difference.

          they might pass on instructions to the store you bought item from.

    • erfsta on 22/09/2016 - 11:36

      Bought the 8000C a few days ago, haven't even picked it up yet. Just called up JB-Hifi Bondi Junction, the guy said they have a 30 day price guarantee and it was no problem to refund the difference, didn't specify if the refund would be a cash or gift card and i forgot to ask but should be able to get some kind of refund/credit.

      • erfsta on 22/09/2016 - 20:57

        Update - Refunded difference back onto credit card, no attitude either!

    • lobedogg on 22/09/2016 - 15:30

      same here. Bought it on Sunday. Spewing. Going to try my luck tonight.

    The TVs are the same price that Sony is selling them for. I am guessing everyone will be this price shortly.

    • OoLLaWa on 22/09/2016 - 08:38

      Is there a new model coming out soon? I had my eyes on the 65' 9300XD that was still over $4k at JB last week, Sony seems to have reduced it to $3,821 now.

      • PVA on 22/09/2016 - 08:47

        thats what I am thinking, whole new range maybe due.

      • unknown on 22/09/2016 - 11:52

        Well there's the new flagship Z9D that should be out here in a month or so, but being FALD, they won't be cheap. I think the 65" retails for $6k USD, so obviously expect a much higher premium here. Otherwise you will likely be waiting until next year sometime. I'm guessing new models will be announced at CES in Jan, and available to purchase around April-May.

    For those of you like me that bought the Sony KD55X8000C 55" 4K - (When priced $1296) https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/266438#comment-4013586

    I managed for get $195 back in a Gift card because of the price drop.

    Thanks to all that with the suggestions.

    The guy at JB Hifi said it was an unofficial policy but nearly didn't payout because the purchase with giftcards but because it was a click and collect it was a OK.

      I bought it last week, managed to get them down to 1250 at a push, acted like they were giving me the world!
      Did you go to head office or into a store?

      Cheers.

      • PVA on 22/09/2016 - 10:14

        especially seeing even Sony are selling it for $1100 as well.

      • gccmelb on 22/09/2016 - 15:13

        I rang the store I purchased the TV from.

  • yjun355 on 22/09/2016 - 09:53

    What's the dfference with $1100 and $1600 model?
    Are these 200 Hz?

  • richmond12 on 22/09/2016 - 10:56

    I think the $1100 one is only 50hz?? Lol i was close to buying last week, glad i didnt

  • TRENT86 on 22/09/2016 - 11:00

    Just be aware guys some of the Sony TV's are now cheaper @ Bing lee here Except the 8000c
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/267210

  • noise36 on 22/09/2016 - 11:32

    Im not sure the 8000C has been cheaper than this - great TV for the price - but no HDR is a shame.

    HDR is funny, no one cared last year but now everyone wants it.

    Its a bit like 4k I suppose, rarely does content actually use it but you still want it to be prepared for the future.

    FYI - These Sony TV's look "ugly" mounted due to their thickness they stick out from the wall, compared to my 7 series Samsung anyway. They trick you with the photos never showing a profile picture.

    • quog on 22/09/2016 - 14:06

      Its the new 3D.
      Unless the source naterial is specifically HDR, the picture is the same as standard blu ray.
      The horrible teal-orange colouring in films and tv shows and games actually becomes annoyingly more orange. But yellows look fantastic.

    • edfoo on 22/09/2016 - 14:26
      +1

      Yeah, I am still not very familiar with HDR in TV. I know what HDR does to still photos. Does it also make the images on TV look more contrasty but artificial?

    • PVA on 22/09/2016 - 19:10

      including the wall mount it is 61mm, what are other TVs?

      • noise36 on 23/09/2016 - 16:23

        I just measured from the wall to the front of my two TV's Sony X8000C (118mm) vs Samsung H7000 (61mm) both using the same slim line bracket.

        • PVA on 23/09/2016 - 17:12

          there's two types of wall brackets for the Sony, a normal and a slimline - slim ends up 61mm (some are 60mm) according to their manual, so the same as the Samsung it seems.

        • noise36 on 23/09/2016 - 19:39

          @PVA:

          WTF are you talking about??? I literally have both TV's and the Sony is like twice the thickness of the Samsung.

        • PVA on 23/09/2016 - 21:10

          @noise36:
          I am just quoting their manual that shows both brackets from Sony, one normal one slim and that's the dimensions they show.
          I havent seen the sony brand brackets to compare the two sizes they have.

  • Colombian on 22/09/2016 - 18:45

    I went to see the TV's and I was disappointed with the image quality. Only in 4k it is outstanding but broadcast channels are awful, they look better on FullHD televisions. On the other hand, I was greatly impressed by LG panels.

    Someone can tell me whether or not my HTPC at 1080p will look good on a 4K TV?

  • Exec-Matrix on 22/09/2016 - 23:12

    Just got my insurance payout for a 65inch Samsung we broke. We thought about replacing it with a 65 inch soniq. Would you forgo size for a better brand? We were thinking of getting a 55 or 58 but don't want to regret it. Catch 22

    • TRENT86 on 23/09/2016 - 01:14

      You really should go in store to check the differences first man. What are you looking at paying? I might be able to suggest one for you

      • Exec-Matrix on 23/09/2016 - 07:49

        Cheers man. We Would like to ideally spend $1500. Has to be with jb also.

        Will be hard downgrading from a curved uhd 65inch Samsung. I've been in store to compare sizes, I guess I just wanted to know peoples opinions on whether they'd go smaller for a better brand/features.

        • TRENT86 on 23/09/2016 - 15:45

          Yes I would personally go smaller for a better brand, having to buy it only at Jb def limits your options. I can't see any big brands really for $1500 but if you are able to wait I would as there should be some better deals heading into Xmas, I would keep an eye on the LG 60UH652t Model.

        • Exec-Matrix on 23/09/2016 - 18:57

          @TRENT86:

          Thanks man. Big fan of your deals!

          Anyway, after umming and ahhing, we decided to spend a bit more and got this from JB..

          https://www.jbhifi.com.au/tv-home-entertainment/hd-televisio…

          The only downside was the 120Hz refresh rate, but after watching all afternoon, I have to say it runs well.

          We've set it up, activated UHD content on Netflix,and gotta say we are very very pleased. Overall, much happier than the $1300 65inch Soniq we were looking at. We were tied to getting a TV from JB due to the gift cards and also living in Darwin limited us too!

        • nubzy on 23/09/2016 - 19:09

          Any dirty screen effect/vertical banding? Watch a show with a light background and panning sky to check. Many reports of banding with the Sony TV's but it effects just about every TV, even the LG we have.

    • T-man on 23/09/2016 - 21:40

      What is your credit card bank? Did they ask you to send the broken item to them for inspection? I am using ANZ black card and going to claim the insurance as my son accidentally threw a toy to the tv and damaged the screen.

  • shadowarrior on 23/09/2016 - 07:44

    Did the 8000C get hdr via firmware upgrade as some guys mentioned in the previous thread?

    Otherwise the 49 inch 70C has HDR.

    Can I buy this or wait for a better 5.1 deal? Need a decent soundbar with good sound quality. Thanks.

  • bniko on 24/09/2016 - 12:57

    As i found on another forum

    how about the Sony KD55X8000C it has a firmware update for HDR and its true 120hz

    have the KDX558000C it's really good has HDR after a 1 hour long firmware update.
