Great price but is that including what parcel motel will charge you as they charge extra for large/heavy items.

Yes the price includes Parcelmotel, in fact I think it would be closer to €230

Product Height 592.0 Millimetre
Product Width 891.0 Millimetre
Product Depth 208.0 Millimetre
Product Weight 14.0 Kilogram

If we add a little to be safe and call it 70cm x 1m x 25cm for the box, dimensional weight would be 58kg, about €37 to pick up from a Nightline Depot or €49 for door-to-door.

Dont think its Smart

An alternative to smart
is a Set top box Android Box, approx 70 euro ;

You then connect the box to your HDMI port

The android box, will give u much better web access,
Pinch and zoom,
you will have Chrome (and of course you will see your browser short cuts etc) and not have to use a TV browser

Huge choice of apps with Android, the choice of TV apps, v limited

I have a smart TV, a fairly recent model, and the interface is nowhere near Android

Freeview TV sets from UK only support MPEG2 (unlike Freeview+HD) so forget about Saorview which is MPEG4.

Android set top box

One of the more expensive, but includes a good keyboard and web cam for skype

(most smart TVs dont have have a webcam)

This link might be a bit out of date, but the guys on the android forum will have more recent info

I think Android set top box , beats most Smart TVS for ease of use, app choice and features

People who bought this tv are complaining about really poor sound quality.

What sort of audio out does the TV have if someone wanted to use external speakers or a Hifi with aux-in to improve the sound?

That'll fix the poor audio so. Use the Hifi for audio from the raspberry pi already so can use headphone out for the TV

The sound is great to me. The picture is brilliant and it can tune in either Saorview or Freeview but not both together
