​Nationwide Gold Card

which credit card would give you an extra 1year warranty on top of the year Argos warranty??.

gutted about this, any other good TV deals about? Please help........ Im buying one tonight, waited too long and im gonna cave in at anything half decent.

had this a while
great TV, especially for gaming

only downside really is poor sound, had to buy a soundbar

sold out

Apologies I was a bit premature in asking, as saw when I took a 2nd look at the spec. You were quick off the mark and had edited my comment in case anyone is confused :smiley:

Four; three on the back and one on the left hand side :smiley:.

4 HDMI ports so not a bad deal. Not outstanding though when you consider theres no 3D and its still over £300, so not that much of a jump in price to get to something similar thats more modern and 3D.

That's interesting. I've got an email from Argos saying otherwise. Thanks

You don't get this option at all?

If I pay direct with my CC I get 1 year Extended Warranty, so paying via Paypal won't work unfortunately

Seems like a top notch set.

Shame you cant pay using your credit card from Argos eBay site

I've had one of these since last summer, when Argos were delivering this model if you bought its (admittedly very similar) predecessor. I mainly use mine as a 42" monitor for 1080p, 60fps PC gaming, which it excels at due to the low input lag and very decent picture quality, especially for the price.

The only real downside to this TV is that the "smart" features are quite clunky and slow and it needs several seconds to "warm up" when it's turned on before it'll properly respond to inputs from the remote control. I was hoping these would be fixed via software updates, but it's been over a year and a half now and there's no real improvement after several updates.

TL;DR - Fantastic hardware, mediocre software. How much that affects you will depend on your use case.

OOS

No but judging from your last comment (#13) we're on the same page anyway.

I didn't need to adjust mine, but "just works" isn't the same as getting the best out of what you've bought.

Ordered cheers.

I haven't needed to adjust my anything on mine it just works. Imagine!

To be fair to Sony, it's had loads of updates and the most recent one wasn't even that long ago (I mean, it has PlayStation Now and that wasn't introduced in the most recent update). However, none of them have solved the slowness.

It's not really a problem for me as I just turn it on (which it does perfectly quickly, it easily beats my SSD'd PC to the desktop) and use my PC, I rarely ever venture into the TV's own menus etc.

Would strongly recommend the 400Hz 805 model over this - which is only 100Hz. Yes, it does make a difference. Voted hot though as I'm a convert to Sony TV's after buying the 805 42". What with hardly any of the big brands bothering to make their own TV's anymore at this size, it's very hard to find a worthy replacement nearly 2 years on.

I have the TV and is great picture and great for gaming in gaming original setting. sound was a bit naff but can be adjusted to sound ok. Picture is fantastic though and we'll worth the money.

Great tv, worthwhile investing in a soundbar as well and if you've got the cash, get the tv calibrated.

got this just over a year ago as its amazing for games due to low input lag. came second the top being the w955. for tv i dont know only watched a few films but perfect for gaming.
