What 4K TV Do You Recommend?

[ron_bato]

I downloaded some hdr10 demos off a demo website and all i can say: WOW.

The colors really pop in hdr. And this is comig from a non premium hdr certified tv. I think we are ways away from hdr and 4k being the norm, but the tech is really impressive.

Kamusta ang gaming? Gusto ko rin sana ng TV na mababa ang input lag while some graphical settings are turned on. Usually kasi, pag sa gaming, you need to switch to Game mode, so you can play without lag.

The neat feature of the tv is that it detects when one of your inputs is a console and it sets it to game mode. So pagka plug ko ng ps4 automatically pumunta sa game mode without loss of iq.

In terms of input lag, its very good. Played bf1, nba 2k17, and am able to execute my moves without delay. Really good set for gaming.

May nagbigay sa akin ng quotations for 4K TVs, a seller from OLX. Store located at Cash and Carry Mall.

43" LG 43uh6100 = 25,200
40" Samsung 40ku6000 = 24,000
40" TCL 40e5900 = 18,000
40" Hisense 40k322=16,500

Your thoughts/comments please.

Also, saan ba usually makakabili ng cheapest and reliable (yun hindi ka lolokohin) for 4K TVs?

I would go with the ku6000. Okay naman sa ansons or sights and sounds.

Here's some really good advice from ACG on going in on HDR 10 right now and HDR TVs in general (main message: WAIT!) -

But if you're like me and you can't - best to be very smart about it I am settling for a 'budget' option now, but for me, it doesn't make sense to go balls to the wall on a premium set right now as the standards will change and as it settles down. I basically got my budget 4k tv as an upgrade of around 10,000 pesos, so it's not bad, and it will last me maybe four years.

Thanks sa suggestion, pafs. Mukha naman ok ang specs ng Samsung 40ku6000. 4K and may HDR Premium daw sya (whatever that means). hehe
24K kasama na home delivery. Sa Makati pa daw yun Ansons at sa Fairview naman ako kaya ok na rin.
Pero suggestion ng seller/agent na bumisita ako sa store nila para daw ma-i-demo sa akin.

Sana matuloy ang deal namin ng buyer ko next, next Sunday para bilhin yun LG LCD TV ko. Napilitan na ako mag-baba pa ng presyo para maging pera at pandagdag sa pambili ng Samsung.

[l-burna]

$799 usd sa best buy

Thank you sir, planning to buy din kasi ng 4k tv, ang iniisip dilemma ko lang sobrang mahal ng 4k na 3d hehe

Iniisip ko naman hindi ko naman nagagamit 3d feature ng current tv dito hehe

ano sa tingin niyo mga sir, ok lang ba kahit hindi 3d ang 4k tv? thanks

[migs23]

Yup basta may HDR ok na kahit walang 3d.

[Crazycajun]

Yeah. Karamihan ng bagong TV models ngayon walang 3D feature.

Yung Sony TV ko ngayon, that I bought just last November 2015, has a 3D feature. Pero mukhang phased out na ng Sony yung active 3D glasses nila. Wala nako mabili. Hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin magamit yung 3D ng TV ko.

Question ulit.
Tama ba na not all 4K TVs have HDR-capability?
Tinitignan ko kasi ito LG ULTRA HD TV 40UF670T at wala ako mabasa HDR sa tech specs niya.

Yes not all 4k tvs have hdr, and even tvs that have hsr vary by what type of hdr they provide.

There's hdr10 which is what the ps4 pro supports. Then theres dolby vision.

Then within hdr10 standard there are uhd premium certified sets which adhere to the standard, then there are other hdr sets which fall short.

Ita currently a minefield out there, so it would help to do research.

Also some sets with hdr have high input lag when hdr is turned on. So take that din into consideration.

Thank you for the informative reply, pafs.
Just learned from the agent that the LG ULTRA HD TV 40UF670T is a 2015 model.
May nakita lang ako nito sa olx na nagbebenta pa.
Saan ko makikita sa tech specs ng TV yun input lag?
So far ito pa rin ang target ko:

Samsung 40KU6000
http://www.samsung.com/ph/tv/KU6000/?mo ... KU6000GXXP

4K
UHD-upscaling
Motion Rate: 120Hz (just like my current LG)
HDR Premium

23.5K ang lowest offer sa akin ng agent ng Ansons.

Ignore the model number since magkaiba model number sa north america and asia, pero here is a good review foethe ku6000. http://ca.rtings.com/tv/reviews/samsung/ku6300

Seems to do well in terma of input lag

Rating: 7.5 Mixed Usage
"Good TV for a mixed usage. It isn't bad at anything. It will work in any kind of rooms since it is versatile. It is especially good for video games and sports."

Nice. Nabarat ko pa ng konti yun sales agent. Sana makapunta ako sa store nila bukas. 1 stock unit na lang daw ang available dun.

I bought a Samsung 40KU6000 today.
Gabi na ako nadating ng bahay kaya hindi ko pa masyado na-explore/calibrate.

I downloaded some hdr10 demos off a demo website and all i can say: WOW.

The colors really pop in hdr. And this is comig from a non premium hdr certified tv. I think we are ways away from hdr and 4k being the norm, but the tech is really impressive.

Please provide link for these demos. Thanks.

I'd recommend a 4K HDR TV that supports HDR10 mode (10 bit panel)

[Khrysler Jerikho]

I also have plans to upgrade my setup, pero I still have some questions in mind:

1) Recommended ba mag-4k kahit na medyo maliit yung kwarto?

2) What's the ideal TV size kung hahabulin mo yung 4K?

3) Recommended budget 4KTVs?

4) Also, recommended HDR10 capable TVs on a budget (if such things exist na locally)?

1. Yes, of course bigger is better, and size of the room is consideration. So Ideally, you'd have a 50 inch TV if your viewing distance is around 5 feet or so. If you sit pretty close (2 feet or so) then a 40-43 inch TV will be suitable (given na maliit kwarto mo)

2. Ideally you'd go 55 inches if you want to really maximize 4k viewing (not scientific, this is just the 'consensus' from what I've read)

3. There are a couple of options, but I would recommend the Sony 43x8000d. Reviews: http://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/x800d
http://4k.com/tv/sony-x800d-review-4k-h ... br43x800d/

Few caveats, it has poor viewing angles, so you'd want to sit directly at the center. Even just a slight movement off angle, you'll see colors and contrast wash out a bit. HDR implementation is good enough, but it's not perfect or ideal for 'true HDR' experience. It just checks the bare minimum (10 bit panel, HDR 10, Wide color gamut) which is a plus.

Personally I've seen a few games in HDR, and although you can notice a difference (with sunlight, clouds, colors in particular) it's not necessarily revolutionary. It could be because the implementation of HDR on consoles is still in its infancy, but it also could be because the x8000d is a budget HDR set.

But I've seen demo content of HDR and it looks really good. So hopefully with more time, HDR implementation on the PS4 pro becomes better.

4. See answer above: I think if you're going on a budget, the x8000d is the best bet. It goes for around 31-32k right now (down from 43k a couple of months ago - so it's a pretty good deal).

Dalawa lang stock sa itech market market lol. Kaya yung gusto bumili sugod na hahaha
