I've got a plasma at present, but the only lcd I've seen that I'd be prepared to swap it for was a sony xh9005 (bit too pricey) Anyone know how this would compare? Very tempted at the price!


    I would have a look online as HUKD is notoriously bias, but everything I've read online points to OLED being the closest successor to plasma. All the screen burn problems seem to have died out in the latest couple of years (tech is installed to counter it for most users), plus the darkness of the blacks is just not comparible.

    Samsung Qled seems to do more vivid colours, but doesn't quite hold up on the blacks.

    OLED 55 inch deals keep popping up circa £900 and feel like the way to go, unless you are desperate to go to 65 or 75 inch, then they get prohibitively expensive.

    All set up. Weighs an absolute ton! I'd arrange for another bloke to pop round on delivery day if possible, the wife just about managed. Build quality seems really good, it just feels expensive if that makes sense. Still playing around with the settings but picture seems really good already in cinema mode. No light bleed I can see but that is in a bright room.

    Not the best on the smart features front. I updated when it suggested and now the plex app says 'no longer supported' bit worrying for the future of other built in apps...
    Netflix seems a bit slower when scrolling through titles than on my skyq box but it does support Dolby vision and looks slightly better than the sky app.

    Overall very happy for £699.

    here is a review for this tv
    Panasonic HX940 (TX-65HX940, TX-75HX940) TV review | TechRadar

    OUR VERDICT
    The HX940 lacks a few features we might have hoped to find on a flagship LCD TV – including some key video streaming apps and next-gen gaming features. Its clever new backlight system, though, ensures that picture quality is good enough to make the HX940 seriously worth considering for anyone after a big screen on a mid-range budget.

    FOR
    • Wide ranging HDR support
    • Dolby Atmos sound
    • Effective backlight control

    AGAINST
    • Some black level issues
    • Lacks some gaming features
    • Lacks some key streaming apps

    BTW THIS IS A VA PANEL

    Buy it if...
    You want full HDR support
    Most TV brands only back either Dolby Vision or HDR10+, despite content being available exclusively in both. It’s great to find 75HX940 supporting both, so that you get the best quality available from every source.



    You want a powerful built-in sound system
    The HX940’s sound is powerful enough – despite only having two channels – to do a good movie soundtrack justice, meaning you don’t have to rush into buying an external sound system.



    Don't buy it if...
    You want OLED-like black levels
    Even though the 75HX940 delivers better black levels than you’d expect from an edge-lit 75-inch screen, there’s more greyness around in dark scenes than you’d get with an OLED TV (or some premium direct-lit LCD TVs).



    You have to watch the screen from an angle
    The VA panel in the 75-inch HX940 loses colour and contrast if viewed at more than a 25-degree angle. This could be an issue for rooms which require awkward sitting positions.

    Did you find a way to switch off the local dimming mate?

    " I used the default settings turned off the Ambient Sensor (this option was causing the problem) and adjusted the sharpness to 100%. Now I have the TV expected, with 4K items defaulting to their own required calibration"

    Couldnt find anything in the usual reviews, Techradar etc. Found the above left by a reviewer on Richer Sounds. May be as simple as that.. The Sony I currently have used to go light dark light dark as you watched. I did find a way to switch it off. Its possible that this Panasonic is much more subtle than that. This seems like an awful lot of tv for the money but there are so many to chose from. Even cheap 55 inch oled's to be had. What to do.

    Mine has just arrived and I'm absolutely blown away. It's a huge step up from my 2016 mid range 55" Sony panel. Watch out though as it is extremely heavy! Me and my partner struggled to get it mounted on the stand. It probably is a 3 man job really. Just playing with the settings now but overall I am extremely happy with it.
  10. simonuk2's avatar
    So to answer a few questions:

    Back light Bleed was my biggest concern and I can confirm there is a small amount in the corners in a fully dark room. It is a significant improvement over my old Sony though so I am happy. In normal lighting conditions it's not noticeable at all.

    It has all the usual aps including YouTube and apple TV. The aps are all very responsive and snappy.

    The only hdmi 2.1 feature is the one that switches automatically to the low latency gaming mode.

    HD content still looks good. Sd obviously not so great as it is a large 75" TV. I don't have an aeriel connected to test free view.

    How are black levels? Any light bleed in the corners or along the bottom? Best to check with room as dark as possible watching HDR content. That's where I see it most on my Samsung.

    Mine took ages for the delivery to be arranged, I followed up with Costco and had confirmation of delivery later that day.

    I’ve replaced a top of the range Panasonic plasma from a few years ago and I’m really pleased with it. The sound is terrible but the picture is surprisingly good when compared to both what it replaced and also an LG C8 Oled TV I have.
  17. uknowme3's avatar
    So just got mine on Friday, unboxed and plugged it in and started checking the UHD content and it's great, agree on the sound so going through an AV Receiver. My joy was short lived, unfortunately I found 2 lit red pixels which show up on dark scenes in the bottom middle and left side. Its only really noticeable when the image is dark and static.

    Dilemma is if I return it they're OOS so might just get my money back and no TV. wondering what else they can do? Anyone been in this situation before. Also box was left outside to take to the recycling centre tomorrow but strangely someone took it.didnt expect that. Not sure if they expect it back in a box too.

    TIA

    Please note: my feedback is not a recommendation. I just providing info that I was looking for myself and hope this will help someone else. For anyone hunting for this TV. It is HX940B 75" TV. I have xbox one x and can confirm it does not have VRR. Shows 4k UHD at 60Hz in game. Supporting HDR10 for gaming and Dolby Vision. Box is ticked on Low Latency mode on xbox as well. Now for the picture, this TV replaced my Sony 46" from 2010 hence I am blown away. Also, I am not pictureholic so I am pleased. One thing I do not like for sure is the glossy screen. I just a matter of getting used to. Please do not compare it to a different technology as OLED which will cost you a fortune for 75" and for me at £700.00 this TV is a steal. Built quality is top. Heavy, digits 53 kg doesn't justify. Minimum 2 people work to get it out of the box and on the stand. (edited)

    I wonder how many years do need to stick with my Panasonic Plasma before a 75” Panasonic OLED gets to this price?

    I know some people are REALLY into TV features and spec's but from my experience when you have it at home and set up to your preference all tv's look pretty good now.

    It's easy when you're in store with 50 tv's in a row with boosted demo videos to get distracted or pushed onto a more expensive model. But that's not how you'll ever watch TV.

    So... Hot deal for a huge TV from a reputable brand and as good a warranty you can get!

If price is all you care about then this is a good deal but considering how fast tv tech has grown and is growing, I'd wait for end of this year or next to see what you can get. I'd be surprised you can't get a decent OLED for comparable price in a year or two. My advice is to save up and wait. You buy a tv for 5+ years, no point just getting a massive 75 inch if the picture quality isn't that good. My next tv would be an OLED


    That’s you’re choice my next tv will be another VA FALD (edited)
  35. john.hollingsworth's avatar
    I bought a hisense 65U7GFTUK not long ago which had FALD. Upscaling of SD and hd wasn't great, blooming around whites on black background was very obvious, dark scenes and blacks almost looked inverted/ grainy/ colours that shouldnt be there on several programs from different sources. Overall not that impressed, it didn't feel like a massive improvement on the 14yo edge lit LG it replaced. Had it for 2 months then my daughter threw a Wii remote through it 2 days ago .

    Reviews on this suggest the black issues are not going to be any worse and the upscaler/ picture processor is going to be better. Plus I can have Disney plus back without reverting to my firestick. And it's massive 😁. Ordered, will review it in a week.
