Another TV Query

    I'm mulling over a buying budget TV for a spare room. 

    I have an LG OLED I got from you in 2017 as my main TV and think I'd like another LG for the magic remote and interface but it depends on what other options you might have I suppose.

    Could you advise of what you'd have as per the following please?

    €500 max budget
    Wall mountable (upto VESA 400 x 400)
    50" 4K (I'd go 55" but don't think I'd have enough clearance below the mount)
    Dolby Vision, Apple TV+ & Disney+ capable
    Bluetooth
    Wired LAN
    3+ HDMIs

    Nice to haves: 

    DNLA/VLC
    Airplay
    Dolby Atmos (FWIW)

    The LG 50UN81006LB ticks a lot of these boxes but doesn't have Dolby Vision unfortunately.

    If you could also include an ETA for delivery to Dublin and advise if there's now a charge that would be great.

    Hi Shred,

    Thanks for the post!

    I do think the LGs are the best way to go especially as they have the best smart hubs however I am completely out of stock of 50" LGs at the moment!

    I do have the Philips 50PUS7805 which has a good smart hub (not as comprehensive as the LG) but has a better panel with local dimming and Dolby Vision Support. The LGs and Samsungs don't support Dolby Vision.

    Let me know what you think of this option!

    Kind regards

    David

    Apologies, to answer your last question! Our ETA is 5-7 working days and you don't have to pay any extra taxes or customs!

    Let me know what you think!
