Well,what can i say.... Tv arrived as promised, first thing i noticed when removing it from the box was the weight, quite heavy for a budget TV .. nice.. Fitted the feet and switched it on. The remote and menus respond very fast, setup is easy and it found my WiFi quickly too.

The screen picture is very good and the colours very vibrant.The sound quality is 10 times better than any other "thin" tv i have viewed and listened to.
Next I connected to Youtube to view some 4k content...... Wow ! just wow.. i was blown away, the resolution is simply stunning. there are 4 Hdmi's and 3 Usb's, along with Vga,and audio video jacks. So overall i am convinced this was a great purchase.

This is such a funny comment ......

HEAT-TASTIC!

Effectively this is the first *decent* paneled 4K TV under £200 as the "Arrow XL" white glove
delivery service is £25-45 for a large TV drop off ;-)

3 hours since posting and no one has mentioned "cold not a sony" or "no point in 4K on 40inch screen" , whats happened to this site?

only the poorer would look at this. Anyway, does it do 4-4-4 chroma at [email protected] ??

This is such a funny comment ......

I could not be any closer than that, I am very poor and no funny at all. So, any idea about the chroma on this tv please/

Seems a cracking deal, especially since i missed the Hitacha 43"from Argos.

Mine is down for delivery tomorrow so lets see..

Thanks mate. I had no idea what the hell 4-4-4 chroma was, but decided to google it after you mentioned. And then i realised my pc monitor was actually set on 4-2-2 and that was why all my text was showing up blocky and yellowy on web pages.

you inadvertently help sort out an infuriating problem that i've had since i updated my graphics.

regarding your question, didn't find an answer. but you can ask buyers here.

Great deal, mine is coming after tomorrow.

It is also HDMI 2.0 as far as I remember and the ports appear to be USB 3.0.

Do you know what the input lag is in ms when connecting to a PC? Thank you.

Thanks brilliant

Anyone know if it will do 60Hz when connected to a PC through HDMI?

Had mine delivered on Saturday. Very impressed with it.

How will this perform as a Computer Monitor?

Techwood decent brand, a lot better than finlux

Probably need some extra sound for any TV so thin and ok for a computer monitor

What are the speakers like on this? Bought a budget TV before only to find it gets a bit raspy with certain frequencies, think it was something akin to a Finlux.

I got one of these 6 weeks ago, I can tell you that it is a very good TV. I returned a £450 TV because this one was better.

If you want a TV on a budget, get this. oh the netflix and YouTube apps work better an any other TV I have used.

Stupid question but I'm guessing this is at least Hdcp 2.2 or whatever it is for fire tv 4K boxes to work?? Great deal

Hi,can anyone say if the inbuilt Netflix app can stream 4k/UHD streams or not?,looking at using in my kitchen and would prefer to avoid any extra wires if possible,thanks for any replies or advice.Looking at the AO website they claim this is made in the same factory as Panasonic Tv sets.

This is the same Vestel set rebranded for Hitachi, Panasonic, Techwood, Toshiba, Bush etc. Good TV for the price.

seems like a good offer, and reviews all over said this is a quite good tv for the money..

Mine arrived today , I'm using it as a PC monitor for my 2012 Mac mini with HDMI. It works perfectly as a monitor , far better then my 10 year old LCD Toshiba it replaced.

Sound is sharp and clear but not much on the side of bass at the side of the Toshiba.

The stands on the new tv's I found are useless in some applications. The new tv would not sit on the desk like the old one would due to the each end pegs. I had to then buy an aftermarket stand to get it back to where I was.

£225 it's a steal to be fair

Does this have the Amazon Instant Video app? Very tempted by this, but don't want to have to buy a fire stick to access Amazon.

That is great,cheers,buying one now.Thanks again.

Different Techwood TV but the review states of the Smart TV

"Clearly there are some pretty big hitters missing off this list – the ITV Player, 4oD, Demand 5 and Amazon Instant, in particular."

Any idea if you can sideload apps onto the them?

Very happy with this tv. Nice build 4 hdmi 3 usb sound is good for slim tv. M.O.J.O run on 4K 30hz.

Hi there..i was approx 10 feet away from the screen id say.. hope that helps

You pay only £225 spent more on android box

My one looks ok

Mine is fine, it could be your Aerial signal im guessing

Great, you had to post this just after payday. Now I have to buy it.

Shame, not in any rush so will wait for something to appear.

This looks exactly the same as my Panasonic TV I bought last year!
How would this TV perform as a PC monitor? I currently have a 28inch 1080p but this in theory would make a great monitor.

I have the 48inch one and im very impressed, the apps are a bit crap but netflix works well and thats all you really need unless you get a smart dongle! :smiley:

Reading the link posted its 100hz?

Yes it is 100hz.. well mine is anyway lol

This is probably the best option to go for to get better frame rate etc http://www.hotukdeals.com/visit?hukdm=23&d=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.novatech.co.uk%2Fproducts%2Fcables%2Fadaptors%2Fdisplayport%2FNovatech%2FNLMDP-HDMI.html

This would be even better if it had PVR function. I could get rid of my HD box then.

This is the review I saw from Hukd User Jessicat when this tv was listed approx. a monthy ago... this may be of some help to unanswered questions.

I have now ordered 3 of these to use as a surround gaming monitor setup, I bought the first one a few weeks ago to confirm what features it has and spec. HDMI ports are all 2.0 (meaning 4k at 60hz) with HDMI1 port being HDCP 2.2 compliant for 4k on amazon fire tv. The chroma I tested and you need to go into input settings and set the HDMI port to Enhanced to get the test Chroma image to show correctly, not sure if full 4:4:4 but certainly at least 4:2:2 as the chroma test image shows however isn't as clear as a standard monitor. Smart features are smooth thanks to the quad core processor and games in 4k look amazing on it with an 8ms pixel response and 36ms video input response. Also worth playing around with display presets to get a picture that you feel comfortable with. Hoping to get a total of 4 of these to end up with an 80 inch 8k video wall for under £1000. The 40 inch and 48 inch seem pretty similar with the 55 inch one having a passive 3d panel (guessing they might be using LG passive tech or panels). Any other questions please ask but defo a good buy :smiley:

It has HDMI 2.0 so you can do 4k at 60hz just fine from a PC so it will work perfectly well for gaming.

Getting mixed messages here whether it'll be suitable for a monitor or not?

Maybe I am wrong then but swear these couldn't support 4k at 60hz.. If they can then go for it!

There are still reasons why you would buy a 4k monitor instead of a 4k tv for pc gaming though.

This is my second TV and I've tried everything, my Freeview HD set top box works perfectly as does my Xbox One with the Freeview HD adapter, both running off the same ariel! I'm flummoxed as why this is happening if yours is ok. BBC and Channel 4 HD channels are worst affected, got AO phoning me back in a bit so maybe another exchange is on the cards. Could you possibly check one more time just to make sure, it's strange cos sometimes it's worse than other times. I wish I could post a video on here to show you. Thanks.

Hi there,

for the ones who already bought it, could you please tell me the exact distance in cm from the front of one foot to the other and from the back of the foot to the other (probably is the same measure). Because i have a corner tv stand, so it is larger in the front and gets smaller in the back so my fear is that the back feets would fall out of the surface.

Thanks again for your help

Just double checked again for you.... my HD channels are definitely NOT out of sync. I would still suggest it is more to with your signal than the Tv.s though bud :disappointed:

Thanks trizinger28, if i am not bothering you too much, can i ask you also the feet width and depth in cm? Thanks again

It must be as two TVs surely wouldn't have the same fault. We live in a flat and the signal is boosted from one ariel, maybe this is causing a problem, still doesn't explain why the Xbox is fine on the same tv. Never mind as don't use it a great deal as use Sky box which works perfectly but just annoying. I cannot fault the picture and playing games on it is a pleasure. Great tv for the money. Thanks for your help though.

Yeah, if you are on communal Aerial that will most certainly be the issue,an SD signal isnt as resource hungry as a HD signal, and as others will all be on different channels at different times i guess this may be causing the signal lag.

Thanks a lot for your help, unfortunately as i supposed the back part of the feet would fall out of the surface so no techwood for me :disappointed:

I must find something similar but with the central mono-foot or with the "diagonal" feet.

Might be worth asking this guy about the stand he bought.

I've messaged bravo, as I'm also interested to know.

Let me know if he answers to you, thanks!

Received TV, very impressed with it. Only issue I've discovered is that BBC iPlayer doesn't play the shows once I click on something I want to watch. I just get a spinning circle. Has anyone else discovered this issue? I have a 17mb connection so should be no issues there. Tried wireless and wired and no change.

And to confirm, it's 60hz 4K.

I am looking to buy this for my bedroom would someone be able to tell me please what is the actual hz for this tv it says 100hz is it actually or just 60hz. I am wondering what motion blur would be like? Thanks.

Gone up to £249 now.

Go onto AO website and use TENNEROFF and it brings the TV down to £239. I found out that from eBay it's not guaranteed next day delivery so that was a tenner so it's cheaper now with the price going up to do it this way and it's next day delivery

Really loved this tv.
I've bought it for my bedroom as it was a cheap choice for a 40" smart tv.
And now i can say it's way better than my Panasonic Viera Smart 3d 48" on my living room.
The image on the Techwood is impressive, the apps works fine, specially the web browser witch i cant use on the panasonic that crash once you open it.
The Remote control is really good, easy to remember buttons (on the dark).
Sound quality is impressive for a slim tv, i really don't need more than that on a bedroom tv, so i'm selling my sound bar now.
I've played Fifa 2015 on my xbox 360, and noticed shadows while the players are running, probably config. i will work on it later.
Easy setup, netflix works smoothly, webbrowser is ok, bbc iplayer works perfectly, Youtube really good.
My opnion at that time is that £225 was a bargain for a well made tv.

Excited about the good feedback its been getting, mine should be here tomorrow.

Got ours today and it is amazing for the money worth it, says its expired but still showing stock

Mine did same wouldn't play anything giving me connection issues however the TV updated firmware and issues resolved.

Got mine today. Cracking tv for the price. The 4K is really impressive too. YouTube had no problem streaming in ultra. Also it does seem to have Hdcp 2.2 as I have a fire tv 4K box and once rebooted all the ultra hd content worked flawlessly. Thanks OP

Set everything up, it's really great. No idea how it was as cheap as it was, because I've seen nothing at a comparable price.

I had same problem....updated software today and it works

Good thing is if u have kodi on a firetick...this remote can control it better than the firestick remote.anyone know how to pair Bluetooth head phones to it?

If of any help to people the wireless display works with Intel Wi-Di built into recent laptops and tablets,works well and means that the flaky Netgear adapter I usually use can go elsewhere.A good tv at this price,so many features.

How do you update the filmware? Mine is doing the same thing. First time with a Smart TV. Also, does anyone know if it's possible to get Amazon Video on, or am I going to have to buy a fire stick or something?

Mine started to auto update. However there is a manual update in the settings, I think you go into general settings then to more and it's there.
