    Hi Guys,

    Back in the market for another TV, looking to go for a 55" OLED with a budget of around 1500
    What would you suggest?

    I've seen some Panasonic here locally that I did like the look of, but open to suggestions.
    Burn in a a slight concern as the kids do like to pause stuff, are any models better to prevent that?

    I would like to wall mount it, but it will be located in a corner so would need a decent bracket with it too.

    Hi milk_da_man,

    The Panasonic TX55FZ802 is a great OLED TV to look at at £1199/1299 euro. It has fantastic reviews and is currently at a great price as it's being replaced by the new GZ series. The FZ802 would be a better alternative to the LG OLED55B8 which is now unavailable.

    Unfortunately no manufacturer can guarantee no screen burn and the 6 year guarantee does not cover it. It's not something we've seen come back very often but we can't guarantee that it won't happen as it is a possibility.

    If you need a good cantilever bracket I would go with the Sanus BLF228 at £119.95/149 euro.

    Let me know what you think!

    Kind regards

    David

    Hi David,

    That looks good, any offers on the go for them?
    I may also need a few longer HDMI leads or extension..

    Cheers

    Hi Mik_Da_Man.

    At the minute there is a TV75 voucher I could add to the sterling price of the 55FZ802 dropping in to £1124.

    When you say longer HDMI. How long do you require?

    I could offer an Audioquest Pearl 2m for £25.

    3m for £35
    https://www.richersounds.ie/p-201872-audioquest-pearl-hdmi-3m-hdmi-lead.aspx

    5m for £79

    Let me know what you think.

    Think I'll just grab the TV and cantilever mount.
    Had a look online and couldn't see a way to add the voucher so will give you a bell in the morning
