[Pre Order] Kogan OLED Android TV - 55" $1399 , 65" $1999 ($1379 and $1979 with Kogan First) + Delivery @ Kogan

130

Was looking for cheap OLED TV's and found out Kogan is releasing new OLED Android TV's. They are being sold in pre-order for a heavily discounted price the 55" goes for $1399, while the 65" goes for $1999 for another couple of days until the night of the 16th of November. Ships on or before the 30th of November. Quite competitive prices for OLED TV's, but to be honest I don't really know how good these will be.

If anyone has any info on who the panel manufacturer is or any other relevant information that could be useful, like anything in the specs that jumps out as being significantly sub-par (or particularly good..) please comment below.

P.S. Noticed the 65 inch can be shipped only to Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, and Tasmania "plus selected regional areas". Does not ship to WA or QLD. 55" inch ships everywhere.

  • Interesting specs, 120hz @1080p, 60hz @4k, and 4ms response time?

      There is a world of difference, and something, between any OLED and a standard LED, especially a cheap LED such as Big W

    • +2

      Simply put, OLED is a far superior picture quality to anything else you will find. Especially to that of the considerably poorer quality that BIG W sells.
      Oled is just something you need to see with your own eyes.

      • To be fair, this is kogan branded so I wouldn't say its quality is much different.

        • It's a huge technologic gap between OLED and standard LED. A cheap OLED looks miles better even than a very good quality standard LED. The only concern I'd have is durability, but in terms of image quality OLED is not another planet, it's another galaxy.

          • @liongalahad: That's why I said quality.

            Do you have experience with this TV? I've had a kogan TN "gaming monitor" before and it was so bad my 8 year old TN monitor looked better. So I wouldn't be so sure about your statement on the tech either.

            Also quality/durability is a huge factor considering how much you're spending.

    It's manufactured by Skyworth. Given the identical dimension and remote control, I'm pretty sure it's a variant of METZ 55MXD9500A. So this is pretty much the normal discounted price.

    • great find though!

    Good to see more OLED TVs (and monitors!) entering the market

    Price seems full retail to me.

      It's not though, RRP is 2499 and 2999 respectively. I agree that these RRP prices seem pretty crazy for a no-brand tv.

      • +1

        RRP, what the manufacturer is recommending, what they would like us to believe are reasonable asking prices are meaningless.

        As you said, the recommended retail price is 'crazy', many agree including myself hence the comment that these products should retail for for amount they're offered at in this 'deal'.

        Off brand 55" 4K TV's are offered for under $500 now, which means the premium for this one is almost $1K for the panel tech, that's the sticking point, that tech isn't worth nearly $1K extra (imo).

    Hoping these cheaper units will put downward pressure on the existing premium trio!

    OLED burn-in and Kogan customer service probably not a good idea.

    • +1

      Honestly 3/4 times I’ve been burnt by a Kogan product.
      The last one was a cross trainer where the leg broke off while I was exercising.
      I got my money back but it took a month of back and forth over emails.
      I’d rather wait till JB HIFI have a similar offering or even spend a bit more on HiSense.

      • +1

        Wow, I'd want a bit more than my money back if my leg broke off while using the cross trainer!

    • I didn't think burn - in was still a thing

      • +1

        the Metz TV review showed burn in, which this is supposedly a variant of

    • I may be wrong but I don't think warranty covers burn-in though, as it's usually result of misuse.

  • +1

    i'd rather get a mini-led TCL for similar money tbh. :)

  • +1

    I am very happy with the Metz 65 from this deal

  • The scene from the Matrix where the
    sentinels bust through the perimeter…

    Generic OLED tvs…and here they come.

  • cheap crap that will no doubt die after 6 months.
