Saw a LG 4k TV today while working in Sheffield for 600 quid
Can't remember the size but was around the 50 inch mark.

Not sure of the source of the picture but it looked shit hot to me  :y :y

Always had Sony plenty of scope in your price range.

currys, play with the filters down the side, allways found it a good way to work out what suites.

Find a model you want and then google it for the best price.

richer sounds, john lewis and crapton & moore are worth looking at.

Some Panasonic models are given a 6 year warranty as well.

These are a good entry level unit :

http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/samsung/ue48ju6000/sams-ue48ju6000

6 year warranty, Smart, UHD and a reasonable panle, sign up to the VIP club and you get an extra £10 off.

Fractionally more but a better panel:

That second one is available at John Lewis for the same price, with a five year guarantee. Only mention this for ease of shopping/delivery.

I fancy getting the hisense 58" from richer sounds this weekend, they seem good for the money. Anyone else had one?

The samsung TV's are pretty good for the money, and we have various versions of they're TV's around the house, 32" Smart via dongle upstairs, 43" smart in kitchen and 55" curved smart in the living room. The 32" model has been with us for around 6 - 7 years, and is still going strong.

I'd agree with Mark above!  :y  :y

Big but low quality panel, you have to watch this with the lower end Panasonics and the like to.

I would be advising a slightly smaller but better quality screen

I've just bought one of these for use as a 4K computer monitor - but it includes Freeview and smart telly stuff :

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291681514755?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

It's actually Panasonic internals and panel - so not the best but OK for what I need and can't grumble for £220 (which is what it was a few weeks ago). They also do 48 and 55 inch versions.
