I'm interested in buying the LG 32LN575V but am confused by reviews as to whether all models have both Freeview HD DVB-T2 tuner (FR connection)  and a seperate Free to Air Satelite DVB-S2 tuner (with F-Type connector). I wish to tune in both Saorview DVB-T2 channels and Astra 2 free to air channels.

Can you please confirm and advise of your best price for this TV incl. delivery to Dublin given that it is on Amazon.co.uk for £289.99 incl. delivery (approx €360).

Coneill,

the problem is that there are several country variants with some LG models which feature different tuners - one of the major internet retailers sell a French variant of some LG models which causes much confusion and lots of upset as many of their models dont feature a freeview HD or Freesat HD tuner ( even though the UK and Irish models do!)

Anyway, the 32LN575 we stock DOES have a Freeview HD tuner via a conentional RF input - this is fine for Saorview HD - it does not have a Freesat HD tuner but it does have a Free to Air satellite tuner built in - We also have one last 32LN570 which is the same as the 32LN575 to clear at £279.95 ( it does not have Wifi, but we throw in the LG dongle with the package!)

The current price is £299.95 and that includes a 5 year warranty - shipping would be £14.95 - unfortunately we wont match the Amazon price ( which is £297.24 after their vat re-adjustment) - as they don't include the 5 year warranty.

Keep us posted if we can assist,

Thanks again,

Thanks John,
Can you please confirm that the 32LN570 is 1080p like the 575 as I have seen it advertised elsewhere as HD ready 720p only ?

Yep, both the 575 and the 570 are 1080P.. Lots of dealers ourselves included still advertise full HD as HD ready as some Customers dont really recognise what 1080P means - so HD ready can mean more to the less technical ( but unfortunately can completely confuse the reasonably technical Customers  )

Keep me posted,

Hi STB.

The Smart system behaves very similarly although things like BBC I player and other catch up services are region specific so they will not work in Ireland as they know your IP address and they know you are using an Irish broadband provider.

Hope that helps but keep us posted if you would like one as stock on this model is not great and coming up to Christmas, it may not improve much.

I hear what you are saying Dave, but do these not operate like the Samsungs in that once the country setting is set to Ireland you can then download the Irish apps like RTE Player and TV3 player as well as Netflix etc

Completely STB - if theres one Boardie who knows their sat kit - its STB!

Keep us posted,
