Hisense 43" 4k

still don't know whether to buy this or go for a more established make in a shop during the sales

Important Question...the majority of channels i have are in SD what does SD look like on this set...washed out????

What code did you folks use to pair your sky remote with this TV? I have a knock off, rev 9 remote and none of the listed numbers are working.

Have searched and searched and still can't find the correct settings for the 40 inch model (H40M3300) - can someone point me in the right direction?

Is there much difference between http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/hisense/40m2600/hise-40m2600 and http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/hisense/40m3300/hise-40m3300

One is 4k Ultra HD and the other just 1080p, i.e. the dearer one is future-proofed for a while and the cheaper one isn't?

I wouldn't worry about regular HD becoming obsolete just yet. Future-proof makes it sound like analogue vs digital or b&w vs colour

Ah yes, I worded that badly - I just mean 4k is going to be around for the next while, regarding 4k at 40" and seeing the difference it's unlikely...but it's a fierce and confusing debate.

Not until 8k comes around

Depending on how close you are to the TV. There is not a lot of 4k programs yet but with the 4k set you get up scaling. I can't say how good this is on other tvs but on my Sony the upscale is stunning.

are you kidding me?

put a 40" HD and a 40" 4k side by side showing the same picture and the difference is clear, 4k is far sharper

Unless you have crazy good eyesight you only see the difference if you sit less than 5 feet away from the TV. This Chart is a good indication of the relative merits of TV Size / Distance / 1080P or 4K.

Standing in front of 4K TV in Powercity they look amazing and you can really see the difference, but once you take it home and sit the usually 8-10 feet away you won't see the pixels. Most people don't even see 1080p (Sky HD was always just 1080i) so yes it might be future proof and probably worth a little extra but I wouldn't get fixiated with 4K TV's yet.

Here has anybody ever seen a new model of the Hisense 43inch for less than £349 ?

Please exclude Amazon Warehouse if replying

Any responses appreciated

The lowest it's been was £277.07 last June.

I'm looking at getting a 2nd TV from Amazon (bought this 43" before xmas via the Warehouse with no delivery charges to Dublin and very little change to the price at checckout).
But a 40" Hisense HD Smart TV for £243 is jumping to nearly £290 on checkout and telling me it won't deliver to Dublin.

What's happening here?

I'm looking for a 40-43" TV, primarily for gaming (PS4) and Netflix. I've skimmed the thread but couldn't find any reference to the Hisense performance for PS4 - can anyone shed some light?

I have the 50" set up on one of the UHD ports and it looks very good. I'm coming from a Panasonic Viera HD which I specifically bought for gaming a few years ago and it's on a level if not a bit superior to that. I don't have a ps4 pro so can't comment on that aspect of it

The 50" replaced a 32" Sony Bravia (about 7 years old) and I would say subjectively that the picture is noticibly better. At least, I'm much happier

Cool, thanks. I'm really not up to speed with the latest TV/gaming tech, but I understand some TVs can look very visuallygood for gaming but have input lag issues - no problems in that regard I take it?

I'm using a standard PS4 and not a Pro too, so no worries there.

No problem for me and not something I've noticed. I came from a tv with zero lag and haven't noticed any difference now with the Hisense. There may be some lag but if there is, it's not noticeable to me at all. What tv are you gaming on at the moment?
