Good deal?

Why bother disguising the thread as a question? Of course its a good deal, but you knew that

Sorry my thread title should have been :

"I can get this tv - http://www.sony.co.uk/view/ShowProd...geType=Main&category=TVP+32-40+Sony+BRAVIA+TV for £380 pounds. Can you tell me if it's worth buying?"

Jez · 11 Dec 2007 at 15:55

Yes, definately for that money. Thats very cheap and its a nice looking set.

Sainsburys staff discount?

Nice telly but hear conflicting reports about it's black levels, most people saying that the S3000 is better value (not sure Sainsburys do those though!)

Cairnsey · 11 Dec 2007 at 16:50

have a mate who'll buy it for me, yeah. I'll have a look into the other one

For £380 you cant really complain though. It should trounce all the lesser branded LCD TVs that sell for a similar price.

Come on now, no need for that ignorant remark

The Bravia 40W2000 was excellent, and won several awards (albeit, last year) so it'd be harsh to categorise the whole Sony brand as poor.

Its a sucky old panel thats pretty much useless in todays HD content. Hence, the reason Sainsburys are selling it

Isnt this a lesser 'sony' model made in turkey, in a Beko factory?

correct, i work with sony reps and their business centre all the time and sadly the U series is pants, its also discontinued as the major well known high street stores finished selling them around 6 months ago.

For £380 its not a bad buy I suppose, although the black level (contrast) is indeed pants as its not dynamic contrast unlike the other sony ranges currently in circulation.

Personally id have a good look around first before settling on a sony as TBH they arent all what people crack them up to be.\

BTW the person who mentioned the W2000 series, it was their first 1080p panel and had a wider colour pallet compared to anything before it so ofc it got rave reviews, shame the starting price was £1500 and its picture was below par compared to samsungs M series which came out near on the same time

I have the 40D3000, its a fantastic set, ive had it about 3 or 4 months now so im having itchy feet again, but its definetly the best LCD ive owned, and i change my hdtv usually every 2 or 3 months (much to my wifes annoyance).

You'll find it quite hard to find a decent lcd tv in the same size range with 100hz for the prices the D series (especially 40s as the 32 inch model is the same price in most places lol). Very nice piece of kit

sunama · 15 Dec 2007 at 22:08

I dont think the OP was saying that his choice of LCD was fantastic in itself. What he was saying though, was that for price, it was a great deal.

I can get this TV for £380....
