    Hi I am currently in the market for a 4k HDR TV, tv must have easy access switch between sat and saorview tuners, must be smart also and ability to sideload my own apps or something similiar to the smart tv app on the lg and samsung. 

    Any help/ advice much appreciated. 

    If you can think of an option without 4k and something you'd recommend I'm all ears.

    Thanks a million

    Hi Jayk69.

    You should have a look at the LG 43UJ630 priced at £349.00 - This has both freeview and satillete tuner built in. However as the TV is not freesat certified so there can be issues with the freesat EPG.

    Some of the Sony's also have a sat tuner but again are not freesat approved so there may be issues with the EPG.

    By sideload your own apps, what apps are you looking to load? Most manufacturers are limited to the apps that they have in their app stores.
    There is also no television that allows you to add apps from an external device eg.. USB or hard drive.

    Some of the higher spec'd 8 series and above Sony televisions are android operating system which give many more apps compared to other manufacturers.

    Let me know your thoughts.

    Thanks a million for that,

    Just a few questions with regard to the UJ630v,

    Is the change between tuner a nightmare with the LG, I quite like the Normende favourite list where you can roll them all onto one lst.

    The apps I would like to install would be Snipped by Mod and possibly Plex.

    is that the best price you can give me on the LG? Presume that is with 5 year warranty and free shiping to Dublin??

    Hi Jayk69.

    Unfortunately you can not put both tuners on the same station list. You need to switch between the two tuners to get the different EPGs.

    Unless the TV would have those apps pre loaded there would be no way to add them from an external source.
    I would need to go and have a quick check over the LG smart store to see if it has any of those apps.

    Best price on the LG 43UJ630 would be the £349 and includes our 6 year guarantee and delivery free of charge.
