How are these Eko TV's for gaming?
please…jv…stop
No way… Don't want the piggies to win…
one part of me wants it to stop, but the other half kinda enjoys using my 5 daily down votes.
JV kinda makes my day with that@Drakesy: Where would we be without jv?
Hey, that’d make a great election slogan.
Thought about running for PM?
Son is playing Doom Eternal on XBox which is the most frantic game I've seen and he's very happy with it.
The sound is awful, you'll need a sound bar or sound system.
Keen to hear feedback from anyone who got one of these on the last deal?
Also how is the audio quality? I'm not expecting much, but would prefer to avoid a sound bar for a spare room TV if possible.
It reviews very well.
https://www.techguide.com.au/news/televisions-news/eko-andro…The audio output was mentioned as being decent, which is good news as that's the weakness in these cheaper sets.
That's not a review for the QLED frameless model.
I've got the 65" QLED frameless however and I have had no problems. For this price it's a great tv. Can't comment on audio though because I have a sound bar setup with it.
I got one today @ $649.
First impressions…using as android TV + connected to my HTPC.
Win 10 picked it up no worries with 4k@60hz max refresh.
8 bit only though. lower resolutions/hz showed a 12 bit panel.
This might be a function my graphics card + 5m HDMI cable . dunno ???Android TV setup & runs fine (not much testing yet) same as my Android Hisense 65RG in my living room
Blacks/colours seem better than my old Hisense 65RG (its bad)
After I play with RGB, brightness , gamma and contrast I reckon I can get it even better.
Screen reflection are noticeable bad. probably avoid if you wanna use with bright windows behind ya. non issue for me.Sound is GARBAGE!! sounds like a tinny mono speaker
I ran one of those 20hz to 28000hz Youtube tests
I heard nothing until like 100hz ! Then the sound again disappeared again at the high end.
Dog was not happy about sound test above 16khz hehe
Its got ARC on HDMI1 so I'll be getting a cheap ARC soundbar for it.I'm happy for $650 picked up on the spot in store today.
It was marked $1049 staff were making a bit of a deal about selling it to me for the sale price.
A non-retarded staff member eventually came along and looked up the promotion online and put it through @$649.
It's been that price since it was first released. Waiting for the 65inch for that price.
Still a great deal.
same here. Waiting for 65" to drop the price.
Waiting for 65" for that price
This price but waiting for 65"
Man, 65 inches would be great for that price.
Still waiting….
It's been that price since it was first released
It WAS that price at first release, then it was $1099.
The 65" doesn't even appear on their site unless you load a direct link so I'm guessing they are phasing those out and/or no longer available. Unless it's just me?
Just an amateur question - what is the benefit of frameless? I would've thought that having a frame at the same distance as the TV you are looking at provides a better perspective for your eyes to focus - any thoughts??
It still has a "frame" under the glass. It just doesn't have a traditional plastic/whatever frame around it.
It actually does. The frameless crap is bs. The plastic frame is just thinner than usual. I got my mate this one and the frame is like 8mm where as my older model which is also 65" but not QLED is around 11mm from memory.
That is what I meant. Not a bulky 50mm+ like a regular lcd.
Is anyone actually seeing stock for these? I can't get online with delivery or C&C here in Vic.
Got one today NSW 2299 .
Jesmond store.
No Help to you in VIC obv…
Isn't QLED a LG panel behind the screen?
QLED is used by Samsung i dont know if they own the trademark or IP on it .. OLED is LG
Very nice price.

I brought this TV today, haven't tested it yet but at Big W Townsville they also had a 65" for $635 for the ones wondering. I was abit confused because all the signage is UHD LED but the box has 4k.

Wow I was expecting something along the lines of "is good" or "meh" or "is bad", thanks for the detail
I'm in the market for a new 55" TV, will run new google chromecast TV and separate speaker system so these worries not too bad for meSounds like a good buy for your typical netflix/youtube etc user? Can't see much else that would top it in this price range and I don't want to spend double on OLED
Happy with mine, blacks on an led and thin
Has anyone been to one of the EKO stores?
