    Hi, looking for a 50" TV for a bedroom, has to be 50" because of where the wall mounting bracket is.

    Am looking at this model, as it seems to be good bang for buck.

    I'm out of the country, and won't be back at home in Dublin until about 12.00pm on Friday October 4th.

    I'm wondering if I order now would it be possible to specify delivery for afternoon of Friday 4th?

    Hi Heraldoffreeent.

    Thanks for the post.

    The TCL 50C805 is a great TV for the money.

    There is no issue in placing the order now via our website and I can mark it for delivery Friday 4th in the afternoon.
    I can hold the TV here until closer to the time and then get it shipped so it arrives on the date requested.

    Currently priced at €689 delivered. Also includes out VIP 6 year guarantee free of charge.

    Hi Kenny,

    I might hijack this thread as I've just bought a 55C805K from you. For 4K HDR content and gaming it looks great, but I'm having a lot of issues with 1080p streams. I watch a lot of live sport via the NOW streaming app at 1080p and the picture looks fairly rubbish and I can't get it to look any better. There is a lot of pixelation/artifacting happening and using the digital noise reduction to smooth this out introduces other issues. I'm pretty surprised/disappointed by this given the TV gets generally great reviews, my previous TV was a 2017 LG OLED and it could play these streams without any issues. Even when NOW was streaming at 720p a few years back the LG TV could display the stream without these issues. I'm not expecting OLED levels of display (although to my eye it really does get close enough for 4K HDR stuff), but I can't see why it would be introducing artifacting for 1080p content. It does the same thing with lower res stuff on youtube too.

    Is this normal with this TV or is there something wrong with the one I have?

    Hi Royale With Cheese.

    Sorry to hear you are maybe having some issues with our 50C805.

    Would it be possible to capture a video of the issue and email it into our service team.
    They will be able to review and see if there is an issue and we can take things from there.

    It is not an issue I have came across before with this TV unfortunately.
    It will not be possible to compare the TCL to the LG OLED as technology in the LG for upscaling content is excellent, it maybe that the TCL isn't as good at upscaling.

    Drop us the video over to service@Richersounds.ie and I'll drop your issue over to them also and see if there is anything they can think of to help in the first instance.

    Include your name and address in the email so it can be linked to your account.

    Looking at this TV. Can I ask, will it work with Saorview for digital TV, as in the stations will be 101, 102 etc. rather than in the 800's for non-Saorview TV's?

    Thanks for the post Doodah7,

    The TCL TVs should be able to pick up a Saorview signal but unfortunately I wouldn't be able to test the channel numbers as we're based in Belfast and can't test a Saorview input on them here in store.

    Please let me know if you have any further queries!

    Kind regards

    David
