Yet another what TV thread...

Currently have an old LG 50PK350 that has served me well for a good number of years and has been brought back from the dead twice now (once with a 18p resistor and once by baking the main board in the oven

) but I’d like to upgrade my Xbox to an Xbox X and therefore would like a nice 4K screen to go with it.

Want

58-65 inch screen
4K/HDR
Good picture quality
Flat screen not curved as wall mounted

Not important/Don’t need

Sound, won’t be used as have separate amp/surround setup
Smart functions as I normally have everything (inc TV tuner) running through xbox

Budget wise I’m thinking up to £1k but would spend more if it significantly makes a difference, recommendations welcomed as I have not idea about current TVs.

Thanks.

I normally get most of my AV stuff from Richer Sounds so all good there. Big price difference between the Hisense and Sony so think I'll try and see if I can see them up against each other to see the difference.

Now currently considering the Hisense 65NU8700 and Samsung 65MU7000 but as above still want to see them side by side if possible.

Went with the Hisense 65NU8700, installed in Friday and so far have been very impressed with every bit of content thrown at it.

Side by side (well a row of TVs between them) I couldn't tell the difference in picture quality and at the time there was a £200 price difference.

This link https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/comparison/658330735 covers the differences between the 65NU8700 and 65N6800.

Sorry can't answer the football question as I have no interest in it so could tell if it was a good pictures or not, I mainly went with this TV for movies and gaming.
