I have been eyeing this partucular model and size as it has a VA panel and comparable to QN90A. The deal is not as good as the David Jones deal during black friday but I believe is lowest advertised price since then.

You can use this price to negotiate a better deal at other retailers too.

Should be possible to get under $4K.

For those not having much luck at other retailers or don't want the hassle of going to physical shops, you can also order the TV from Powerland's eBay store for the extra $100 off ($4,199).

    Would be interested to know if anyone can price match this in Perth

  • tman2020 on 29/01/2022 - 17:16

    How does this one compare to the Sony a80j 77 inch OLED TV.

    • Mandalorians on 29/01/2022 - 17:19

      Get oled in dark room, get this in bright room

      • drpants on 29/01/2022 - 17:51
        +8

        I would change this a little to say get OLED in most rooms, get this if you have a very bright room.

        OLEDs these days go to 600-700 nits which is plenty bright unless there's direct sun on it. My LG C9 is next to wall length north facing glass sliding doors and I almost never have a problem watching during the day - only in very dark scenes (you can change the dark level compensation for your daytime setting).
        A80J or C1 etc aren't your old dim plasma or first gen OLED!

    • greggsy on 29/01/2022 - 19:14

      I have this and am very happy with the black levels.

      • Lucille Bluth on 29/01/2022 - 19:55

        Of course, because it's an OLED.

    • Crumydog on 29/01/2022 - 21:03

      Samsung have always been my go to tvs mate but I just purchased the a80j and this thing is insanely good. My room can be fairly bright sometimes and it's still fine. When the sun is coming up and I have my blinds wide open then for about 30 minutes of the morning with the sun on that specific angle, it's not the greatest. But for every other hour of the day it's perfect.

      Or I just shut the blinds for 30 mins.

      • tman2020 on 29/01/2022 - 22:25

        Where did you get the a80j from. I've tried the big stores in Sydney and all sold out. Apparently back in stock in March.

  • superforever on 29/01/2022 - 17:42

    Still waiting for 75" to go down

    • WaffleCrusader on 30/01/2022 - 14:23

      The 75” uses an IPS display.

      • superforever on 30/01/2022 - 16:11

        Really confusing for normal user, same model difference size difference spec.

  • rosy on 29/01/2022 - 18:23

    Interested to know Sony 85inch X85J or this one. As I enquired from the guy working at JB says Sony is best. My budget is max. $4500. Just no knowledge of technology just go by reviews. Will be using sound bar so Sound is not much an issue.Thanks

    • drpants on 29/01/2022 - 18:41

      Easily this one. This TV is comparable to the X90J or even the X95J. I personally prefer Google TV platform on Sony but that's an <$100 fix with a Google TV w/ remote deals.

      X85J has no local dimming and is their entry/mid level LED option. QN85 is Samsung's near top end option other than the 8K models or QN90.

      Rtings.com comparison tool is a good starting point - but keep in mind that the 85" QN85 is VA panel vs smaller size which are IPS, which means deeper blacks (although worse viewing angles): https://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/samsung-qn85a-qled-v…

  • tlm on 29/01/2022 - 18:34

    Sony 85inch 85J is $3795 and the plus side is Google TV

    • Chillzy on 29/01/2022 - 19:08

      No local dimming on the 85J which you definitely want on an 85 inch TV.

  • ifreddo on 29/01/2022 - 19:06

    This is a great TV for the price. And also is incredibly thin if you're planning to wall mount, it will look like a million bucks.

    • greggsy on 29/01/2022 - 19:35
      +1

      Yep. Do it. I went against the strong advice from the store guy and got the super slim wall mount. Looks great. But I would have to take it off the wall to plug anything new in

      • Davesday on 29/01/2022 - 20:17

        Did you have to reinforce the wall (assuming it is not solid brick wall)?

        • AlanHB on 29/01/2022 - 20:35
          +2

          You mount into the wall studs in the wall though the plasterboard rather than relying rather than relying on the "strength" of the plasterboard alone (which is negligible). As long as your mount fits the stud you shouldn't need extra reinforcement.

          • greggsy on 29/01/2022 - 22:12
            +1

            @AlanHB: Yea, into the studs 2 bolts, I could probably hang from it

      • scixxor on 29/01/2022 - 20:37

        did you get the samsung super thin wallmount? was there any issues for mounting?

        • greggsy on 30/01/2022 - 02:02
          +1

          Nah just go for the cheapest you can find. The thin ones are nothing special

  • alvinMalhot on 29/01/2022 - 20:57

    I used the super slim wallmount, the way the holes in mount are it is inevitable that you will have holes where there are no studs. I ended up getting a couple of studs and then used plasterboard anchors for the remaining holes. I put in a few extra screws and is solid

  • alvinMalhot on 29/01/2022 - 21:00

    Also need to bear in mind cable thickness as with the super slim mount you only have 7.5mm clearance at the back of the tv. I need to get some super slim cables as my tv isn't sitting flush at the moment

  • dtoovey on 29/01/2022 - 21:07

    Curious as to whether there are aftermarket solutions like the Samsung Frame that has a single cable to a box with all the sockets and power in a cabinet. Can't imagine one that doesn't have a half dozen connectors at one end, that all stick out. And doesn't do power. Looking for the USB C PD of the TV world.

    Only other solution is to put a plate in the wall with all the adaptors, and run cables inside the wall itself.

    • flashi007 on 29/01/2022 - 21:55

      The 8K mini LED models come with a one connect box

    need a monitor for my PC - this should be just right

    • Mr2shiny on 30/01/2022 - 17:05

      I bought this TV to use as a PC monitor, I'd highly recommend it. I ran HDMI 2.1 leads in the wall to it, so I get 4k/120hz. Playing games is super smooth and looks good

  • ozpoz on 29/01/2022 - 22:01

    I tried to pricematch this with Harvey Norman online and I was told it is less than market price and can’t match it. Then I shared appliance central link which is $4470 and he kept me on hold nearly 1 hour and said ‘sadly we can’t price match this’.

              @ksun1985: Mine is arriving tomorrow. They said it was in stock and I could gave received today if I wanted.

              • ksun1985 on 31/01/2022 - 07:16

                @Tupac: Interesting. Down in VIC they said there's about 50+ on back order. I guess it's not a shared national warehouse then.

      • ksun1985 on 30/01/2022 - 08:16

        Wow, that's a great price. I got it from JB last week at $4650. No stock and apparently going to be a while before delivery.

      • ozpoz on 30/01/2022 - 10:21

        thanks, really deal. I called jb hifi, he could able to match $4299 but not $3900.

          Damn I just paid $4400 for this from JB last Monday with delivery expected next month. What are my chances of getting a credit/refund on the difference if it's yet to be in stock or dispatched?

          • nawapb on 31/01/2022 - 12:55

            @HeihachiMishima: maybe cancel order first if that is an option as its yet to be delivered. but i am not sure if that works i mean not sure if they will agree to cancel and refund.

        • JW3 on 31/01/2022 - 12:35

          I went to both Moore park and castle Hill store. Both said no lol…

          • nawapb on 31/01/2022 - 12:56

            @JW3: i have not idea what it is but i was quite surprised they agreed too as it seems stocks are limited too.

  • sskanth999 on 30/01/2022 - 00:03

    Last Black Friday I got this TV in TGG for 4320$ including delivery with a 2 weeks delivery time. TGG was saying for 75 inches its 2 months waiting time. Harvey Norman has stock and was not even matching the price as TGG doesn't have stock.

    I have bought a Samsung Q950A soundbar for 1262 in HN and linked to this TV. Its amazing to watch movies in this TV as it uses soundbar and TV speakers as well.

  • Freeza on 30/01/2022 - 17:35

    I want to buy this TV, any help to get this model cheaper in the Melbourne region?
    Everywhere it's $5195 and not a single penny less.

      Have you tried negotiating?

      • Freeza on 30/01/2022 - 19:58

        I did not tried negotiating with any outlet such as jb-hifi because of no stock in Melbourne. Do you have any store in mind I can try talking with and what do I need to provide them to get discounted price?

      • Freeza on 30/01/2022 - 20:48

        Talked with HN online chat just now and they replied following;

        "I am sorry we could not match the price as per the price match policy with Products with pricing set significantly lower than the recommended retail price or market value."

          Yeah you gotta keep trying. Always better to go in store I think. I see the qn85a 85 inch on display in quite a few JB hifis, but no idea of they have stock. Maybe try and negotiate for a display model?

          • Kentrolla on 31/01/2022 - 14:34

  • Tupac on 01/02/2022 - 01:16

    Received mine yesterday. Coming from 75 inch QLED 70R (2019), I can see and hear upgrade in every department. Very happy with the TV. The level of immersion is at another level compared to 75 inch although it doesnt sound like much different on paper. When I viewed in the store, it didnt feel like that big a jump (perhaps being surrounded by other 85 inches and even 100 inch made it look relatively normal).

    I was debating between this and entry model (au8000 crystal uhd), glad I picked QN85A.
