Anyone bought a new TV lately? 50 inch max.
Don’t think I need OLED. It’s going to be on the wall in the open kitchen/diner.

Richer Sounds are great, I've bought two Samsung QLEDs from them and been very pleased :ayatollah:Quote:

Same here sales guy asked what we needed and pointed out Samsung, excellent sets.Quote:

Like others though Samsung are great.

comes with ROKU back end which works very well, Hisense are a Chinese company who I believe have been the biggest seller of TV's in China for about 15 years
its a cracking picture
got mine about 2 and 1/2 years ago and its been a cracking TV, well impressed with it
RItcher Sounds are the best for knowledge and so helpful .Quote:

I got an LG TV which apprantly has one of the best Internet connection capabilities and much cheaper than Samsung?
When buying this gear it's best to check if you can afford the supporting mechanism such as boxes and subscriptions,
Sorry should add that as others have said : use richer sounds to pick the actual telly. They are great, and fighting the good fight against Amazon. They have an excellent price match too so you shouldn't be out of pocket but even if it costs a bit more you get an excellent warranty and proper advice. You cant go and look at sets in person at Amazon. Give richer a call. I doubt I'll buy a TV anywhere else.Quote:

I like the look of a Samsung 50inch QLED.
My main TV is an LG and while the picture is fantastic I have one issue with it when watching the football, there is a bit of vertical banding when the camera pans from side to side. So I'm reluctant to go LG again.
That's a daft amount for a TV of that size. Almost disposable if you want to change it a year or so laterQuote:

Sony OLED. All day long.
I’ve been looking this morning and I only need a 43 inch for the kitchen. 50 will be too overbearing.
I’m Looking at Samsung qled or their crystal HD. I guess qled is the best one. I'll look into it. Very thin. Not that expensive either.
I also need an other tv for a room that I’m going to make a bit of a man cave. I think I’ll go for the OLED in there as i can make it like a cinema room. Maybe the LG 48 OLED for that one. Prices have come down a lot in last two years.

Can’t go wrong
How many are you buying, Mike? Sounds like you're opening a TV shop.
I'd go for a 49 myself.Quote:

Any bigger and it will be out of place and overbearing.Quote:

Finally these works have left a room spare. So I have bagged it as mine. It’s the old box room for which I got myself the 48 LG OLED. It’s was price matched and got all three from Richer Sounds with the 6 year warranty.
I rocked up there today and took all three home in the back of the car.
I can remember a tv needing a two man delivery team.
