Hi,
there is only one X83C serie, 2015 (with final "C"), from 2016 start XD83 serie and this has received Android 6.0, at this moment X83C is without an update to the newer SO Marshmallow...
Manolo
ah ok.
is it likely to get an update?
5.1.1 is 2 anroid versions behind.
even my nexus player (android TV) had android v7.x
Nexus is a Google Device, like smartphones it has the update immediately from Google.
I don't have a news from Marshmallow on 2015 series but it arrives... Nougat maybe in a future...
Manolo
actually, i have just realised that what i have been given is a KD43X8309C, and not a KD43X8305C.
can you anyone advise what the difference is between 8305 and 8309?
Motionflow on X8305C is XR 800Hz, X8309C has Motionflow XR 1000Hz.
Manolo
so the X8309C is a better model?
reason i'm asking is that the TV i bought was advertised as a X8305C, but what i was actually given was a X8309C.
if there are technical differences between the two then i will be looking to return it due to be wrongly advertised/mis-selling.
what is the current 2016 equivalent model?
When used, but depends of contents, Motionflow XR 1000Hz is better than Motionflow XR 800Hz, you can keep this model... -)
Equivalent 2016 model... XD83 or XD85 (between these series I think XD85...).
Manolo
i'm looking for an excuse to return it as i thought it was a 2016 model.
as there are techincal difference i should be able to return it due to false advertising.
there are so many different variations in models for some reason!
i can currently see online
KD43XD8305BU
KD43XD8088BU
KD43XD8077SU
what are the differenence?
