55” OLED circa €1500

Hi,

My current 38” Panasonic TV is ~12 years old; it has served me well but I want something bigger, nicer and fancier.

I visited a local Australian owned store today and saw the Sony A84L and the Samsung S95C.

Both were impressive and were priced similarly at ~€1500 (on sale).

I asked to buy the Sony and after ten minutes they came back and said it was only a single display model for sale. No deal.

I said I’d take the Samsung in that case and they were out of stock in that store.

Do you have either TV in stock and available for home delivery (Cork)?

If not, could you recommend a TV of that pedigree? It’s for the kids and the odd movie. Picture quality is paramount. No gaming involved (except the kids on the Nintendo switch which is only 720p or thereabouts anyway).

I definitely don’t need anything bigger than 55” as I don’t have a big room in which to place it. I’ve looked at some great 42” TV’s but seeing as I’m upgrading I thought something slightly bigger would suit

Thanks!

The Samsung 55S90C is in stock in our main warehouse but it can not be delivered and is an instore only collection so that would rule it out.

The Sony is the better of the two sets in my opinion.

Also worth check out is the LG 55C3 coming in at €1288.

Hi Iguaraantee.

The Sony has lots of little tweaks that give it the edge in picture quality.
It uses an android operating system, whereas LG use their own OS.

The Sony has Acoustic Surface Audio+
Sony’s unique Acoustic Surface Audio+ speaker system enhances the sync between what you see and what you hear. Vibrating actuators positioned behind the screen pinpoint the sound to the action, heightening the sense of connection and realism.

The Sony has Google TV, hands free voice activation and Sony's BRAVIA CORE – cinematic streaming
Sony’s BRAVIA CORE is a premium streaming service that’s a cut above the rest. With hundreds of movies, from classics to the latest releases, BRAVIA CORE has something for everyone. Compatible with resolution up to 4K HDR, detail is pin-sharp. Sony’s Pure Stream system streams movies at up to 80Mbps – similar to a 4K UHD Blu-ray player – against the average of 15-25Mbps. It’s also compatible with IMAX Enhanced, giving you the most cinematic sound and vision.
