Budget 4K TVs may offer same specs but do not mistake them to compete with actual high end brands (Panasonic/Sony/Samsung)
Why?Budget 4K TVs may offer same specs but do not mistake them to compete with actual high end brands (Panasonic/Sony/Samsung)
Picture Quality of tier 1 brands are lot betterWhy?
And price in multiples of X.Picture Quality of tier 1 brands are lot better
All high end stuff have bad vfm quotient.And price in multiples of X.

Funny that you mention that. Cause Redmi Note 5 still is better than many mid ranger phones.Getting tvs from less known brands is like getting a cheap chinese phone and expecting it to perform like midrange phone from well established brand
It's more like cheap phones like Vivo oppo Wil just slap big Megapixel number but the Sony camera will perform same or better with less megapixels. Cheap TVs will do same, add more features to sell, even though the picture quality is just average, which is what many of us care about more
I would rather spend a bit extra and use the product for 3yrs rather than saving few bucks to use a inferior product which will not go beyond the 1yr warranty period. Not saying no cheap product will survive after 1yr, but still, I have seen people getting frustrated with lower end brands and then eventually go for decent reputed brand for which at least they have decent after sales services.VFM is a real thing bro.
Redmi note 5 is not exactly cheap @15k by cheap I meant likes of lava,intex etc.I am not considering Sony due to pricing especially in their budget-mid segment but Panasonic and LG offers better Tvs with good pricingFunny that you mention that. Cause Redmi Note 5 still is better than many mid ranger phones.
Granted I personally never would buy a cheap chinese phone, but there's no denying that it's camera is better than even newly launched phone like ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M1 which I brought this sale.
(Although we are going offtopic).
So there's no denying that cheap chinese TV can't match the quality of Sony, but then Sony isn't exactly VFM. Mind it, that cheap and VFM aren't synonyms.
VFM is highly subjective. As Vyom said Cheap and VFM are not synonyms. For a rich person a 1L tv maybe more VFM than say a 3L tv or some Projector.
I also prefer to spend a bit extra to get a product from a better known brand with proven Quality Control where products last longer.

I disagree . Let me elaborate with an example. Lets take a graphics card 1050Ti (just an example). It's a VFM for me on a certain budget for gaming. On the other hand , for my Dad who doesn't game, the IGPU is enough and for him the 1050ti is not a VFM since the product is overkill for his usage. This does not make the product itself bad but it's not VFM since my dad can't derive value from it. Hence VFM in my opinion is subjective.I do not think VFM is subjective, but "Cheap" is. VFM can be measured for most of the products. (for ex. frames/$ for graphics card). That's why VFM is used in almost all professional product comparisons. VFM depends on the product and not on the customer who will be buying it, on which "Cheap" factor actually depends.

First of all VFM != Cheap. I am talking about VFM. In the example I gave ,GPU is the requirement. IGPU was VFM for my Dad and DGPU wasn't. The example was to demonstrate a product was VFM for one person while for another it wasn't. Thus in my opinion VFM is subjective. You are free to have a different opinion. That's totally fine. I'm not getting into a debate on IGPU or DGPUFor a product to be "VFM" or "Cheap", the base assumption is that its requirement is there. There is no purpose of even talking about it if there is no such requirement, like in case of your dad as he doesn't require a dedicated graphics card at all. Even then, the "VFM" product can still be debated if we talk only about the iGPU category.
