Frank_1969

Just reserved one in Cork Retail Blackpool.

It's edgelit, when I bought last TV (long time ago) that was a bad thing, does it still apply with 4Ks? Im guessing yea.

the_pod

Quite happy with it so far but still need to tweak the settings. Sounds better than I expected. The only time I notice an issue with the edge lit is dark background with light highlights - credits on a black background for example but I can live with that for the price. I'd love an oled but that'd be at least triple the price. Haven't tried 4k or hdr content yet but it handles hd and see pretty well

fmul9798

The lower spec ones actually seem to be backlit in this range

Can iptv be downloaded to this?
Can you cast an iPhone to this model?

I have the 49” version and both of those work.
I bought the IPTV app from the LG store.

Just reserved one in the ilac dublin.

No dvb-s2 tuner?

clogher71

If anyone has a reservation code for this tv west of the shannon anywhere that they are not using, I would be greatfull for it......

horse7

It's a satellite tuner.

the_pod

Definitely has a satellite input but I haven't tried it yet. Planning to get rid of sky next month so I'll try it then. Found picture settings here https://www.which.co.uk/static/tools/new-reviews/tv-settings/tv-settings.html

Picked up this last night.
Very big,much bigger and better then our old 40" blue diamond.
Only thing tho is the first time I turned it on there was a white bright area in the centre of the tv,I tapped it with my finger and it disappeared.
Any idea what it could be?

You have now entered the twilight zone!:pac:

Any chance of a pic. I’ve a 40 inch plasma myself and was thinking of upgrading but my sitting room is only 14ft x 13ft so don’t want it to be to big.

kindalen

These appear to be on Argos eBay.ie store to order now.

jacob2

there seems to be no stock anywere. in the argos uk stores its 575 pounds

M7roadrunner

I have a reservation for one in Carlow for Monday that I won't be using if anyone wants it.

Brozy

Tried reserving one as it said they'd have stock to collect in the store near me later in the week.

I got a reservation email with no reservation number in the subject line, didn't get a text either.

Does this mean they have no stock of it?

Gulliver

What's the black levels like on this? The 55UH770V gets 3/5 on Trusted reviews and the reviewer complains about local dimming. The whole review seems a bit... smarmy.

I have a reservation for Childers Rd, Limerick if you want it. It came into store earlier than they predicted so it'll be held until the 7th. Picked one up in the crescent today myself.

I've one for cruises street, Childers road would be a lot handier

Reservation for cork queens old castle if anyone wants it? Have had second thoughts

unkel

This is a steal. On the Argos UK site for £579 with plenty of good reviews. I didn't see this thread but a friend pointed out this bargain to me this afternoon and I put a reservation down for delivery later in the week.

Will be a nice upgrade from my 32" TV

Yes but it might suck up more electricity that you need for charging your car

About 85 watts per hour according to LG's own figures.

I'd be more than happy to take the cruises Street code if it's still available.

Did you actually get a reservation code? Tried same yesterday when a few places said order for pickup next week but said out of stock when I tried.

That usually means that the computers have t caught up with the amount of orders. If there’s no code then there’s nothing reserved. I know this from personal experience and from a friend who worked in Argos, Jarvis Street.

Is there anywhere in Dublin this is on display? Want to see how big it is before purchasing

akasudonim

Anyone know what warranty this comes with from Argos? Couldn't see it listed on the spec..

huntsman77

Looked at the LG 55 inch in shop yesterday it was same spec as one in argos as far as I could see. Looked good but there was a Sony beside it the LG wasn't in the same league for colours. But the Sony was 300 more expensive. Now maybe playing with settings on LG would help.

5 year warranty with Sony also

fmul9798

Was it the 651 model?
There is quite a difference in specs across their range.
The 651 at 55 inches gets edge lighting with local dimming (local dimming missing on the 49 if you compare on the LG site)
Also, the 651 is a 2017 model.
Great price and thanms OP

Seems to be the 634 which is lower spec than the argos one if you check the LG site and compare

huntsman77

Yea that particular Sony had a 5 year warranty. I'm just saying in general get what ya pay for.
