N7 is way better and compares to Samsung/LG
Seems like a good deal? How is the quality of the 50”?
Are they the Samsung panels?
I believe these are LG panels
How 'Smart' is the TV?
I believe these are the non-smart versions, which most people here seem to prefer based on other threads

Why would you prefer non-smart TV?
faster menu system that isn’t bloated down by a heap of processes
a chromecast is better than a non name smart tv any day of the week
TV manufacturer stops providing updates and you're stuck in 2012
Not sure how long this deal will last, but you can try combining it with the $50 off $120 vouchers method;
- Purchase a $50 off $120 Kogan voucher from eBay or the classifieds page.
- Create a new Kogan account to get $10 in credit.
- Make sure you have signed up to Shipster with the same email, so you can get free shipping. Shipping is already free, but just in case they remove this later on
Cheapest voucher I can see listed is for $10.83, so the total cost should be $409.83 (459+10.83-50-10, 50" model) and $349.83 (399+10.83-50-10, 43" model) delivered.
Oh nice, didn't know they were also on OzB. Have been purchasing vouchers from them on eBay for some time now and they also allow offers on their eBay listing. Yeah I would also recommend them, usually receive my vouchers within 5-6 min after the purchase!
you are the best.
Can these voucher be stacked?
don't forget to pay with discounted Kogan giftcards.
Main issue: No HDR support
My past experience with Kogan TV is the panel felt like a rejected one (the so called Samsung panel had heavy colour shift issue) and the firmware was very basic and had many issues (HDMI auto was poorly implemented it was unusable). Zero firmware upgrade for the one I bought. It was essentially an AWA (one of those no name brands) but a Kogan label. Never again.
Real pity about no HDR.
That's because Samsung and LG sell off the B and C grade panels (rejects) to these lower end brands.
I have a $30 off $120 spend coupon if anyone wants it - PM me
Edit: given away
Thank you very much!!
Have an awesome week :)
Looks tempting. How does this compare to the Hisense N7 series?
