The TV Decision Making Thread


Bulovski

Recommended Posts

I am looking to buy the new QD-OLED TVs (either Samsung S95B or Sony A95K), but I don't see them on sale anywhere in India. Can anyone please guide me how to keep track of whenever these launch in India (or of they will launch at all in India, based on previous product line-up launch histories)? Or any number of local sellers/dealers who can get me one?

 

Currently on a C9 OLED but will move it to main hall and will keep QD-OLED for my PC/PS5 gaming setup. These look a real step-up from traditional OLEDs and I am itching to buy one.

I guess check around October or November time because it is yet to be released in US,Uk etc because lg c2 which has just released in US Uk is yet to released here

 

 

 

S95B did get released in US around 2 weeks back but I get your point- that these TVs release much later in India than in those territories. I suppose they release here after demand has been saturated there. 

Thanks bro. Will wait a few months. Hopefully good discounts during diwali/holiday season.

Posted a few pages back 

But I bought for 88k 

Hey , by any chance did you enquire about the cost of the 55 inch ? 

 

I called up a local LG store here in Pune and I asked them about the price of the 55 C1, he first quoted about 1.23 L including all cash backs n all. I told him I'm not looking to buy a tv now , unless it's an offer I can't refuse. Then he asked me what's the budget , I told him between 1 and 1.10 L  and he.s like " ho Jaye ga sir , aap store ko aa jao pehle "

They were quoting 1.2 lakhs at Croma for the 55 inch

i,guess if u bargain they may reduce to 1.10 lakhs

but try your luck

Got the C1 48 inch at 87.3k and with emi amount it works out to 88.1k :)

Installation tomorrow.

 

Anyone here using any other vesa mount for your OLED? Please let me know . Or should I opt for whatever wall mount LG is offering. Because I want it to protrude a bit ahead and  rotate easily so that I have easy access to the back ports

Update on the LG c1 48 payment

Though it was finally billed 88.1k with 6 months emi . . I requested hdfc for preclosure of the emi for the tv. They told me vendor side the payment was further reduced to Rs 84.9 . So I was told to pay 84.9k  :bigyellowgrin:

The opportunity cost of the 85k might be worth more though. If you pay by EMI it's just 500 rupees per month extra. Stock market has just gone down, good time to invest in shares . But I guess this is a debate for another thread.

Does it vary with 6 months payment? Because I was billed 88.1 during April and now 85. Any further margin beyond 88k is a win for me :P

but anyways i got reimbursed by my company for buying this :fear:

As per my understanding,  here.s how it works , whenever you buy it on 0% EMI , the upfront cost is discounted further in the backend , I'm not sure who pays this , the retailer or the bank.

So basically,  now in their system , you have taken a loan of 85k @ 12% interest rates or something ,  and after 6 months your total outgoing inclusive of Interest will be 88k. So basically you are trying to shortclose that loan 6 months in advance , that's why it's only 85k for you now. 

 

My argument was that you.re better off paying 6 instalments of 14684/- rather than pay off 85k now.

Arey , I'm not telling him not to buy a tv and invest the money. I'm saying,  don't prepay , and invest the money instead.

Diwali is still so far away , and I wonder how much of a cost difference can it be then. Minimum of Rs.1 lakh ? Wondering if the wait is worth it for an additional 10k. ( considering that I've been wanting to buy an OLED since the C9 came out :fear1:
