2020 model but by most accounts is superior to the 2021 models.
Price is already discounted on website, listed at $2297 - but there currently is an additional 20% off which brings it down to $1837.60 (+ Delivery, which to Perth for me is $50).

Not quite as good as the crazy clearance price of 1488 at JB last month, but stock was very hard to come by for that deal.

I was looking at the various 75 inch TVs on sale for Black Friday, under $2000 — most of the current year models all seemed underwhelming in some way or another.
e.g. Hisense U7G/U8G being pauper's pack versions compared to the US; the TCL C727 being full array but no local dimming and only 450 nits brightness.

So, even though the Q8 is last year's model, it has a VA panel, FALD and a good peak brightness of 1000 nits.

    From my experience with DJ, I am wondering whether they actually have stock.

    • asianboy9 on 24/11/2021 - 12:33

      What's your past experience been? They took my payment and I have an order confirmation. Are they likely to cancel and refund?

      • superforever on 24/11/2021 - 12:37

        They cancelled and refunded me before even I ordered a microwave, even site said have stock but actually they don't. Not to said those very popular or price error items.

          My order status has now been marked "Shipped", so fingers crossed it's all good!

    The Hisense U7G and U8G also apparently complain 4k 120hz, but in reality do not

    • friendly-gandu on 24/11/2021 - 11:59

      wot

      • ericshurn on 24/11/2021 - 12:06

        Sorry I just reread this and have no idea what the word complain was supposed to be. On a Gizmodo article, they discovered that this TV claims to have 120hz 4k capabilities but actually doesn't

        • superforever on 24/11/2021 - 12:09

          As I understand not Aussie version.

    No hdmi 2.1 from memory. Important for game consoles, less so for movies

  • Shostaholic on 24/11/2021 - 11:58

    Can someone advise how this compares to the 75 U8G for movies?

    • Lolitsjoel on 24/11/2021 - 12:03

      or better yet, U9G

    • Dave1988 on 24/11/2021 - 12:23

      This one has VA panel vs U8G has IPS panel.
      For movies VA panel is considered better.

      • Shostaholic on 24/11/2021 - 12:35

        Thanks for the advice, might grab this one then instead of a newer model.

        • Dave1988 on 24/11/2021 - 12:37

          Q8 was great for the price.
          I am looking at U9G, but it's new so they are not on display in the shops yet.
          That suppose to have VA panel they say.

            @Dave1988: U9G is mini led. Obviously it's early days but I would say a pretty safe bet that it's much better than both these models by a fair margin.

            • superforever on 24/11/2021 - 13:09

              @bert-lifts:

              U9G is mini led

              In that case won't be this price range.

            • AlexF on 24/11/2021 - 13:11

              @bert-lifts: Blooming is a problem with mini LED.

              • bert-lifts on 24/11/2021 - 13:13

                @AlexF: blooming is a problem with most LED tv's that have some sort of local dimming. If blooming is a deal breaker then get an OLED.

            • asianboy9 on 24/11/2021 - 15:25

              @bert-lifts: U9G is currently on sale for approx $2500 for the 75 inch — yes I'm sure it's better but also about 30% more expensive (600-700 more).
              Compared to the U8G (approx $2200) it might be a worthwhile upgrade though if one can stretch the extra 200-300.

    Hi, can anyone who bought from this deal confirm when they ordered and when it was received?

    I purchased on 27/11, got an order confirmation with status shipped but no tracking details.

    • asianboy9 on 14/12/2021 - 13:16

      Yes — ordered 24/11
      Marked "Shipped" later that day
      I was phoned by DJ delivery on 2/12 to arrange a delivery date
      Delivered on 6/12

      • pogiguy on 14/12/2021 - 15:43

        Happy with the TV?

        • asianboy9 on 15/12/2021 - 01:05

          Haven't had time to wall mount it yet… still in box… will report back to you!
