Upgrade

swai

Hi guys,

I'm looking to upgrade a 2017 Sony XE9005 55 inch. It's a great TV but my parents need a new one so I get to choose a new one for myself.

I would like a 65 so had thought about the x90j which is £1189. Budget was around 1.5k euro.

I since went onto the UK site and saw the a80 oled was reduced to £1199 but not sure if that applies to buying in Ireland.

We don't game and the kids use during the day and for us we only look at Netflix etc.

What would you recommend, afraid of burn in issues etc with oled. Does the warranty do anything about burn in?

Hard decision to make. Not sure what you would recommend.

Thanks, Simon.

Hi Upgrade.

Thanks for the post.

The X90 series are one of the best LED's on the market and the 65" is currently priced at 1449 Euro delivered.

I check on the 65A80 but it is priced at £1789 in both .ie and .co.uk

The 55" is the one priced at £1299 with the SALE100 dropping it to £1199 with £6.99 shipping.

If burn in is a worry, maybe an OLED is not the right choice. Screen burn is not covered by our 6 year guarantee or by LG's own manufacturers warranty. Screen burn can happen if static images are left on the screen for long periods of time.

It is pretty hard to burn an OLED screen to be honest and they do have the better picture quality to LED and QLED.

You could maybe also check out the Samsung 65Q80A priced at 1479 Euro - This is a QLED and Samsung offer a 10 year screen burn warranty on their QLED sets.

Thanks for the reply. The more I think about it the more I think I should go for OLED as probably won't be upgrading for a good few years.

Do you guys have stock of the Philips 806 I see there is a 55 inch version, do you do it in 65?

Thanks,

Hi Swai.

The Philips 806 OLED is a fantastic television and product an amazing image.

The 55" is currently out of stock as we await a fresh drop direct from the manufacturer (No ETA confirmed just yet).

No stock of the 65OLED806 either at the minute.

We do have the 55OLED856 but the best I could offer on it would be 1479 Euro delivered.
