Philips 4K UHD Television Models in Indian Market?
Yes there was a good deal with an online site on 70" Phillips UHD LCD LED TV during Diwali '20. But an FMer who bought it had to return it right away as the panel was broken in transit. Not sure he updated what happened later. Phillips has lost brand value over the years since the big three ripped apart the rest. Still good enough to go for it.Philips 4K UHD Television Models in Indian Market?
I dont see any info about them on here or indian web sphere..Yes there was a good deal with an online site on 70" Phillips UHD LCD LED TV during Diwali '20.

I bumped an old thread regarding this topic.I dont see any info about them on here or indian web sphere..
Only way I stumbled upon was due to them also having IPS Panels after LG, Sony, Panasonic, Sanyo etc.
Link? Dont see it in forum.I bumped an old thread regarding this topic.
Thanks. Deals thread. I was looking for Philips separately -AV deals from amazon/flipkart.
Why do you need 2 HDMI? Can't you connect via displayport from a desktop/laptop to monitor. Generally all monitors will come with 0/1 HDMI and rest displayport connections, because it's the better standard. DP is royalty free and has been a better standard since I can remember. I don't have a...www.hifivision.com

Power user in terms of "computing & tech". Not so much for TVs (but similar research before I buy) but definitely Monitors.The amount of research you put to buy your tv shows you are a power user.

I was the unfortunate one whose Philips 70 inch TV was damaged on transit and was returned and got refund.Yes there was a good deal with an online site on 70" Phillips UHD LCD LED TV during Diwali '20.

Sir, X950g for 85k what abt x900h 55".where can i get these rates too?There is not much distinction. Tv is a display tech and past decade has been spent on tweaking an inherently weak LCD technology. Ignorance is really a bliss here. If you put so much effort into knowing what is FALD vs self emitting pixels etc, the effects of a static backlight system such as philips will be blatantly visible in first attempt. U7980 is the cheapest FALD but has picture processing and upscaling issues. Philips trades the FALD deficiency with excellent processing with less brightness. Both are compromises. Uncompromising FALD starts at 85k for the sony x950g but lacks hdmi 2.1 ports if you are into gaming.
If you are tech savvy, you will definitely be an early adopter of HDR etc in current or next year itself. That will limit philips' performance heavily. You will at least need a 700 nits. Picture processing/upscaling etc is for old content and you cant unsee the effects of HDR once you see it. Even a U7980 will fit you better if not the flagship tvs in that case, it is all about choosing compromises you can live with in the lower ranges, especially in the tv tech.
Edit: Also I am an advocate of having the best for the most used stuff (like a bed/couch/recliner/tv etc). After all you spend most of your life there and there is no point penny counting in that regard. If you are an occational tv viewer, can understand. But this amount of research is unwarranted for occasional usage. Thats where I come from.
Agreed in principle, but I will at times wait for certain jumps in tech at times. We are just beginning to see OLED with HDMI 2.1 come out, and OLED monitors and OLED competitors etc. And whenever my SPLURGE for the high end comes it will be for a Thunderbolt/ USB-C & DP with PIP etc.There is not much distinction.
