Still no dispatch from Amazon for the 43" 8545 TV in the OP This is now 9 days after order and TV is showing as 'In Stock' on Amazon.co.uk. Is this normal wait time for dispatch or is anyone else still waiting for dispatch of TV in the OP? A bit disappointed that it hasn't been at least dispatched at this stage...:mad:

I got onto customer service and they cancelled it on me! They are out of stock now...:mad:

Did anyone order the 58 inch from Curry's.ie? I did but it was out of stock. Money gone on CC and email received that I will get stock from 24th November stock delivery. Then got automated email today from my stock alert set up some time ago that the product is out of stock and will not come back into stock. So in limbo currently and no response yet today as emailed them on my order this morning.

Are Richersounds doing the 58 inch?

Edit..this model linked earlier in thread:

The 9005 has 4 sided ambilight, the 8535 has only 3 sides.
Everything else looks similar to me.

No, RicherSounds don't stock the 9005 model and unlikely to in future, asked them directly if they did/could as was interested in the 50" model. Don't know why most of Philips models (even OLED screens) are just 3 sides ambilight. With a lot of TVs wall mounted having all 4 sides lit would be a nice addition.

Was in my local Tesco yesterday and they were selling the 58" Ambilight for something like 570.

I got onto them on Wednesday about it and they sent me an email afterwards saying that they'd prioritise delivery and such for the 50 inch I'd ordered the week before. I asked about a similar model and seen if there was anything that could be done to change to that. Looked yesterday and they'd cancelled my order. No email to say that as of yet.

Got on to them yesterday and wanted to make a complaint, more to see if I could get anything from them but ordered the more expensive model. They said that all they could do is raise it internally. Not received and email about that either. Surprising from Amazon really.

I’m still waiting on mine. Contacted Amazon and they said they don’t have the tv in stock and would email me when they have a delivery date. They offered to cancel it and I could order a similar one

As have posted on a another thread I’m looking for a decent 50inch TV.

How have people found the Ambilight either 8545 or the 9005?

Does it have a sat tuner and Saoirview.

Will be on the market for BF deals.

Budget up to 700 but if I can get a nice one for around 500 as the Ambilight was happy days.

What do you mean not Android - does that mean you can't use google and play store on it? If so any idea which ones might be android?

Thanks

I ordered from Amazon with DPD parcel wizard, not looking good if that's the case. Were you able to cancel?

You can replacement or refund your order.

Is there anything in the Harvey Norman sale that can be considered a bargain?

https://www.harveynorman.ie/tvs-headphones/hd-tvs/all-tvs/?utm_source=homepage&utm_medium=tile&utm_campaign=black_friday_2020_tvs

I thought this Samsung 55" 4K HDR Smart QLED TV | QE55Q60TAUXXU at 799 might be a bargain although a little over what I want to spend.

https://www.harveynorman.ie/tvs-headphones/hd-tvs/all-tvs/samsung-55-4k-hdr-smart-qled-tv-qe55q60tauxxu.html

Realistically I am watching this thread for one of you to spot the bargain of the century. I am rather uneducated in my TV knowledge.

The epg is pants alright. I thought it was just me. Mine doesnt populate half the stuff.

Just to update this. I reset the integrated freesat as I was installing a cheap indoor saorview ariel (which worked remarkably well) .

I looked through the settings and I changed the EPG from satellite to internet (or something similar)

Now the Freesat EPG is a lot better, smoother and populated.

Bare in mind mine isn't this model but this is where I got it from.
Settings -all settings - channels - tv guide and change it to from the Internet
Also beneath it I have channel logos on

Hope that helps someone.

What antenna did you use for saorview ?

brightkane · 26-11-2020 1:07pm

This one

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07SHL7ZPT/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It had dropped to 13.50 the other day. It will probably drop again tomorrow.

But it worked for me for 20 quid.

Thanks for the info .. in my case it didn't help as the option is just not there on mine but hopefully it helps someone.

Just order off Richersounds, 2 day delivery, usually the best price and a bumper of a 6 year warranty.

They did not have any 43" Android Ambilights in the 8500 series when I asked them! Just the 50inch or bigger

Nor did they or would they stock the 4 sided ambilight 9005 model, only Currys have that but only UK having the 50" which is what I was interested in, out of stock anyway.
