Kogan Series 9 XU9210

When it breaks your on your own – I received this tv as a present from my wife, it lasted approximately less than 3 years and now it won't turn on, seriously keep away from and Kogan branded products as having it repaired by them is next to impossible. Show details

This one works!!! - REFURBISHED MODEL – This is the replacement I received after returning first one after it failed in the first 72 hours. On replacement I had the option of brand new or save a little bit and receive a refurbished model. The answer is refurbished as it has been tested and fixed locally before being sent out to consumer. The brand new tvs aren’t being made properly… Read more

overseas which I’m sure has been very frustrating for the Kogan brand.

I have not had an issue with this tv. Android System. I have no tv aerial so all my free to air is streamed via apps from the google play store (7;9;10 etc).. then all streaming services, YouTube, google search and browser. It’s all connected with a Bluetooth keyboard and Bluetooth headset.

So far, so good.... I will update at the 12 month mark.

Kogan 70inch 9 series TV PERFORMANCE – KOGAN 70 inch TV PERFORMS As good as brand name TVs three times the price. HAVE BOUGHT 100 products over 5 years. Not one has broken down. Keep up the best service. Show details

My entertainment has increased 10 fold – This unit performs as advertised, the picture is outstanding, I connected my TV via Lan but the bluetooth works well with the remotes The features provide seamless selection via the many ports at the rear for hooking up your DVD or hard drives and the remote control has a full spread of choices to facilitate easy navigation to change settings or selecting your desired choice of source to view from. Show details

Good for the price – Works well and good quality picture. A bit slow turning on but that’s nit picking. Would have preferred centre stand as the legs are at each end of the t.v. so you have to have a long unit to stand it on. Show details

Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV Reasonable picture quality for its price. No mount screws included (two different types) – This review is in two parts. First part relates to delivery, the second THE TELEVISON. ------------------ DELIVERY: Was supposed to be dispatched on 15 June 2020. Still not dispatched on Mon 22 June, even after being told by [name removed] that it was going to be dispatched from Brisbane on the 15th? Contacted [name removed] again on 22 June and… Read more

was told that due to "receipting issues" the TVs are not in Brisbane but are now in their Melbourne warehouse!

The Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" television was finally dispatched from Melbourne on 23 june and arrived in and dispatched from Rocklea Brisbane on 25 June! Arrived in Townsville at the depot on Monday 29 June.

One finally received the Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" Television today 02 July, 4 days after estimated delivery date, 4 days after it arrived 8.3km away at the depot! Apparently their agent up here only delivers for Allied Express a one day or couple of days a week! And Townsville is a major garrison City, so one wonders what other folk in regional areas must put up with! ------------------ Now for the purpose of one's review, THE Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TELEVISION.

As always, one is purely reviewing the product, and only THE PRODUCT without any bias for or against Kogan which one must declare is not at all happy with given one's recent experiences!

As was the case with the other Kogan television, it was well packaged in a double carton! Alot of thought has gone into the designing of these television's packaging and the padding within!

Thus far one cannot complain about the Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV picture quality of this television, it's not bad at all! The Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV has both Dolby vision and Dolby audio however the left side speaker does not want to work for some reason. The colour and contrast are well balanced, and the backlight and brightness work well in unison together delivering true black as one would expect. It has very good advanced control settings for colour etc. Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV also has voice control.

Hopefully Kogan will incorporate GOOGLE SEARCH and GMAIL featured in other brand smart TVs into its next update, along with visuals of movie files in its media player menu. This Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV with its Dolby Audio DOES play WAV files and FLAC files as well as the standard mp3s.

Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TVs remote control is adaquate however getting out of different areas such as settings and USB and Apps etc is a process that tears away at ones patience, as with my Sony's one only has to hit Source, or guide or settings and there you are, not having to hit a back button then guide button or settings button or whatever.

Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV handles TWO (2) one terabyte movie hard drives pretty well via the USB Ports, which is a bonus for a cheap TV as one's two expensive Sony KD-85X8500G TVs (at 3 times the price) with all their brand name pomp and hype STRUGGLE with just ONE of same hard drives! See ones reviews of the expensive Sony's in here!

Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV has the standard USB and HDMI and earphone connections though one would be a wee bit concerned if there ever was a need to attach the plastic feet.

Also worth noting is Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV television did no come with the screws used for mounting! Bit of a pain in the youknowwhat considering you need TWO DIFFERENT screws!

This new bubby Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV is going in the kitchen and being a smart TV can go online to watch Netflix and Foxtel as well as being used as a monitor for the CCTV, and the other lil (non smart) Kogan one got the other week is going upstairs solely for the CCTV system.

Other than the DELIVERY FIASCO and the TV speaker, everything else on the Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV seems to work fine and is adaquate for the $$$ spent. So far so good (holding ones breath).

Update: Spoke too soon, have just added a video (below).

Can you believe this... Not only do Kogan NOT SUPPLY the mounting screws with their TVs (worth a few lousy cents) like REPUTABLE BRANDS, the top mounting screw holes on the Kogan Series 9 XU9210 43" TV are sunk in that far the standard screws cannot even get in far enough to grab hold of the thread!

One needs TWO different screws, two standard TV mounting screws for the bottom and two M6 x 35mm for the top (available at Bunnings) Item: SFA408 for phillips head top or Item: SCR028 for the cap screw type. Thought one would mention this because there is nothing about the mounting screws one needs in the instruction booklet.

One will continue to update this review in due course.

Kogan 50" LED 4K TV CRAP!!! – Update #2 I have to say Thangool Kogan came through with a new solution. Even ghough k was not the original purchaser, they still helped me out and replaced my TV with the current model. Working like a charm. Thanks Kogan. You have restored faith in this customer. Update: Well, after Kogan replied and sent me instructions on how to hard reset… Read more

and then update firmware, which I had already completed just by reading the troubleshoots. I can now tell you, that power cycle resets did not help. Restore to factory settings did not help. Updating firmware did not help; and in fact now, the TV wont actually turn on!!!!!

Numerous days and many hours lost trying to fix this shite excuse of a TV. And in fact, its still a problem because it now has to go to to the local TIP. Awesome for the environment, NOT!! Thanks Mr Kogan. You're the best. :((((((

The TV has great clarity and the sound is ok, BUT like many others, after watching it for a few minutes, the screen fades to black and then you can't get the picture back by pressing any buttons on the remote. Turning it off then on does'nt even rectify it. How the HELL are you supposed to watch the excellent clarity of the picture. I have had to hard reset the TV just so i can get into the settings function and disable any self timers and power functions, but to no avail. Kogan, you're on a winner with this one!

Bad TV, but good service – TV itself is extremely underpowered and resourced a small amount of additional RAM and CPU (to bring it inline with Android TV hardware recommendations) would have gone a long way. I'm sure it functions fine as a TV for broadcast TV (wouldnt know, never even used the antenna). Picture quality is about to be expected for the panel. CPU / software… Read more

limitations mean that you will likely be running this "4K" panel at 1080p but thats not unexpected for the price.

Sound quality is very bad, definately worth having a sound bar for this TV (although thats pretty par for the course with ~$500 TVs). ARC isnt particularly well supported by many apps e.g Plex (or this hardware?) so be prepared for manual tuning and some slight (~10ms sync variation)

Remote died within 2 years, this was extremely disapointing. However after discussion with Kogan was replaced free of charge (10/10 for service). The new model of remote actually seems to be more solidly built so hopefully it will last a reasonable amount of time.

Its good enough to be downgraded to second TV duties once it's replacement arrives. So make of that what you will.

Fantastic experience and value for money, far better than expected – The TV is simple enough to set up even for someone who has never used a Smart TV before, the operating system is well laid out, though the order of icons is not to my liking they are not a problem to use, I do not like the remote control it is too basic for my liking and makes the TV more like a archaic Windows Media Centre PC set up as a TV than… Read more

a Television with Smart Operating System etc, the TV itself is great, I know most Android TV's are using these remotes so it's not a real issue on the device, I think the people making the standard need to think TV rather than Android when making the design choices. the only real downside to this TV in my opinion is no clear indication that it is Foxtel App compatible, I have not been able to try it out due issues from Foxtel and totally unrelated to the TV itself. every other expectation is met with these TV's so much so we are thinking to replace all our TV's with one of these.

Audio on these are not as good as on the old TV we had, the speakers do seem cheap and tacky, this is the only disappointment but does not prevent the TV from being enjoyed, I assume this is due to people using surround sound units in addition to the TV's such as via BT etc,

Not amazing – ****amended. Kogan got in touch with a fix for the tv which worked. Really appreciate them contacting us, thanks Kogan. We are getting a new tv cos we are sick of the lag time. We have had this tv for 2 years now. The picture is fine but we constantly have to turn it off at the power point when it freezes. Very frustrating. Would not recommend. Show details

Turns off and on, on its own – Received my tv from Kogan and it’s ok but it turns on and off on its own accord, for the life of me I couldn’t figure out why. I’d wake in the middle of the night to the tv on in the lounge, then when I was watching tv it would turn off on its own. After turning off on its own I would lose the internet connection on the tv so I’d have to… Read more

disconnect the wifi on the tv then re connect I’m not thrilled with the quality but it’s ok for the price. Probably buy a different brand tv next time.

good tv – I purchased a kogan tv the annoying was the delivery schedule kept getting pushed back all afternoon finally turning up at 8pm putting on the legs was a another mission now getting a pop box appearing in the top right of the screen with different options HDMI M and KEY no idea what it means and no idea on how to get rid of it and then randomly… Read more

disappears only to reappear at a latter time when i didnt ask for it

help section not overly helpful

How does Kogan expect anyone to use this TV? – This 65” TV has a great picture...seriously great, but it is let-down by an atrocious menu system, which is non-intuitive and when it comes to free-to-air TV viewing.....its the worst I’ve experienced. The direct access numbers don’t work for choosing a tv channel, and all you can do is use the EPG. The tuner picks up (in my area) around 60… Read more

channels of TV and radio. There appears to be no way to cut down the list of unwanted stations, to a usable list of desired ones. This is truly the most frustrating experience ever with a TV’s menu. Please Kogan, if there is a way to fix this PLEASE let me know.

What a piece of garbage ! – the KOGAN 65inch 4k android so called smart tv is dumb, and a rather pathetic operating system with two usb ports which rarely work and when they do work any usb stick employed is useless as the system keeps rejecting and ejecting it. The system wifi date and time reverts back to set up all the time so you need to keep re entering the information… Read more

and this is when it is supposed to be on automatic wifi time and date settings, pathetic !.The GOOGLE search never allows signing in so you rarely if ever get to look at the internet via google search and do not bother trying to install chrome as the Kogan smart tv refuses google chrome. All in all, a complete waste of money and Kogan is known for very to extremely bad customer service, help and replacement/refunds. get another brand except Kogan 4k smart tv's, they are all dumb with useless pathetic operating systems. save your money and buy elseware !

Tv is extremely good for price but has a few minor flaws – The panel is extremely clear and vibrant. It also seems like a much higher resolution than it is. The tv is thin and has all of the ports it needs. However the operating system is good but sometimes can lag when doing things quickly, and on the tv remote I feel it needs some media controls, as some apps require this to properly function Show details

Happy with our TV – We ordered a 65 inch Kogan TV Series 9 XU9210. We are really happy. It works with all the apps. We have been enjoying the footy, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Stan and the normal channels on it. Easy to download apps.. Was pretty easy to set up. Picture is great. Delivery guy was nice. Took a bit of time to get delivered, but Kogan sent us a voucher… Read more

to make up for it. Whenever I have spoken to Kogan they have got back to me in prompt fashion and I've been happy, very happy with those interactions. I would buy another TV from Kogan.

Happy with the operating system and the apps. Happy with the features and controls and its performance. Everything we watch is through the internet as we don't have it hooked up to a TV outlet. Wireles connectivity is good. Has enough HDMI ports for what we have wanted to do so far.

Sound quality is okay. We plan on buying a soundbar. We bought our TV on one of those days were Kogan offers 5% off storewide if you buy it that day and got free shipping.

We had our first family movie night with this TV on the weekend and the kids loved it. So did we.
