    Hi there

    Im not sure what you are after in terms of TV usage - but 4K is a bit of a waste of time at the moment as where is the content ? not very much out there right now or even on the horizon

    I would be looking at a decent 1080p TV with 3D as well if its there - i got a samsung recently and I am very impressed with it - great picture - tiny bezel and the smart features are top notch

    something like that should do the trick - but check them out in store first

    In terms of usage? Not been smart but just planning to watch it really!

    I suppose Netflix, sports and a few apps! Possibly get an android tv I am thinking.

    I guess what was meant is do you have any 4K content that you are going to watch. If not why bother with a 4K TV.

    Sorry I'll try be clearer on my lack of knowledge - I haven't a clue what 4K means or what 4K content is!

    I suppose I am just seeing a lot of fuss about 4K TV's and and wondering what's the fuss about!

    Cool - think I'll just pick up a Sony Bravia or a Samsung. Have a Sony Bravia from 6/7 years and it's still quality.
