Best Budget 4k TV, 42in £375 max

southernorth · 2 Jan 2017 at 20:53

Hi,

There seems to be so much choice on cheaper 4k tv's that I really don't know what to look for.

Apart from the obvious requirement of 4k, HDR seems to be something to look for aswell. Or is there more to it than that? Is there anything else I should be looking out for?

Thanks in advance for any advice, it is greatly appreciated.

I can only find the hisense for around £500 which is way out of budget. Thank you though

Oh nice, didn't find that one, thanks. I see it has HDR but have heard that sometimes it's not 'true' HDR, do I need to look for a further certification or something? Something about 10 bit panels V 8 bit

What about something like

SAMSUNG UE40KU6020 for £369 (40in)

or

LG 43UH603V for £339 (43in)

How do these two compare to the Hisense?

Thank you for all your suggestions. Being able to narrow down so much has been great.

Based on your suggestions, it seems that I should get:

Hisense H49M3000 for £369 (delivered)

or

Samsung UE40KU6020 for £349.95 (£359.94 delivered)

They both seem really close, with a lot of praise for the Hisense. My only major concern now is screen size. The room I'll be watching tv from is quite small, I'll be just over 2.5 meters from the screen. 49in seems quite big that close up. What are your thoughts on proper screen sizes v viewing distance?

Thanks again for the help
