4k TV Recommendations

lewis

I'm on the look out for a 4K TV.

I've Googled a HAPE of them and I'm overwhelmed.

What I'd like to get would be, from what I've read and what's "a must have" - 4K - HDR+ - Full Array - VA Panel - Wall Mountable - HDMI 2.0a - 60Hz.

I don't know if it's possible to have all these things in a tv, but somewhere close to it would be cool.

I'm coming from an LG 42lb580v, which only lasted around 3 years.

I'm not picky when it comes to makes, but I have read about some Samsung model interfering with Sky Q, weather is just a small amount of models, I don't one.

For the money I'll be spending on it, I want it to be the correct and best that it can be.

Cheers.

Any particular size?

I got the LG 55uk6400 for €650.

It's a good TV, nothing spectacular but it's solid. Could do with better contrast but for the price it's very good. I'd recommend. Obviously better tvs available if you want to spend more.

I'd suggest asking the lads in the richersounds forum for a recommendation. Always great prices and 6 year warranty

I think you might be stuck for the full array local dimming at the price range. The only one I can think of is the Sony xf90 this year and but I think that starts at around 1200 for the 49inch. It does have a va panel, 4k and hdr. I have last year's version. There are more edge lit TVs at lower price points. I would recommend you ask richer sounds on their forum and they should point you in the right direction.

The only one I`ve come across with the VA panel is the Samsung ue55nu7400.

All the other`s I`ve seen have had edge lit, as for the Hz, I doubt I`d even notice the difference....

When I find a direct lit TV, it's an IPS panel and the edge lit ones are VA... if I could only find one that's VA with direct lit...

Sony's usually have better motion which is what's important for sport. Ask the lads on the richersounds forum. They will give you an honest opinion..
