£400 - What TV?

rhysduck · 16 Nov 2017 at 11:24

Have £400 to spend on a tv for upstairs.
No real preference on the spec to be honest apart from VESA compatible.

Thinking maybe 4k for when I get a PS4 Pro or One X however not completely essential.

I just want good picture quality above everything else.

Any suggestions please? Looking at:
SAMSUNG UE40MU6100
SAMSUNG UE40MU6470U

Buy oled
Don't buy Samsung - good panels but lousy software and hardware issues. Had said Samsung in the past

I'm inclined to agree, Ive had 2 Samsung TVs die prematurely on me, they look a tempting prospect but I'm steering clear for my next purchase.

LCD don't have best colour, motion, or noise reduction. Found they look worse than plasmas for SD.

I'd save up for oled.

But OLED's are 3 times the price I'm looking at... unrealistic budget unfortunately.

If you are abit tight on funds try going for buy no pay in 12 months. Would give you better options

Purchased a 43UJ701V a few weeks back, magic remote is excellent, never going to be a world beating picture at this price but looks good to me.

Do you use it for gaming at all Firestar? @Firestar_3x

Nope, just used for normal TV watching so unsure about input lag etc.

I’ve bought one of these to use as a 4K monitor, the picture quality is excellent for the money and I’ve noticed no problems gaming on it with my PC whatsoever - Battlefront 2 looks jaw dropping @4k on a 43” screen!

My partner has the 55inch version of the same model, her lad plays his XBox one through it and that looks equally epic despite it not being the One X.

My mate thought me mad to get such a tv for a desktop monitor but having seen it, understands why now!

@rhysduck - I Highly recommend it.

Id also recommend LG brand for the TV ive been impressed with them previously had Panasonic Viera and Sony Bravia and the LG is better overall value

There's the 77" LG OLED. You're only short by £23,600

Could you save up the remaining?
