Very tempted by this deal. LG 60UF770V 4K from John Lewis. Link is for a price match at 899.00. Comes with 5 year warranty. Been looking for a large 4k TV. Anyone have this? Worth having? N.B. Link for price at £899.00 top right of screen.

Inferior?
Inferior how exactly?
LCD technologies have inherent flaws and limitations and although the displays have got better, saying that they are better than plasma is a push.
OLED looks very good and surpasses plasma on several key benchmarks but the jury is still out on longevity.
That said, this is still a hell of a lot of TV for the money.

Got this in Nov2015 for this price from Currys, For the money no regrets, best value, Smart functions are very easy to use, Calibrated using Know How Plus, seems colours are very good. 720P and above is brilliant, standard SKY channels are watchable from 3-4 meters. Went up from plasma 50" to 4K 60", Picture is better than plasma.

hows the motion handling like football?
i've read that the 860v is awful with sports and fast moving scenes.

The motion handling is a real concern. I bought my Dad at 55" LG 4k and it gave him motion sickness! :neutral_face: Had to take that one back.

Isnt the Plasma being better old now? It's 2016, TV tech has moved on and got better since then.

Yes it is nostalgia that influences these sentimental diatribes about Plasma. It is an inferior technology to what we have currently. However, some people are Luddites.

Its about the TV in question.The 4k Oled you refer to is nearly treble the price .How do you know the guys plasma was not a top spec one .I wish people would give honest reviews on the TV in question to help potential buyers rather than quoting their wish list TV which has no relevance to this deal at all.

Seems like a very good price for this size of TV, regardless of some less than perfect reviews.
I don't think I've seen a 60inch, 2015 model, well known branded TV in this price range outside of lightning deals.
Anyone know what the processor power is like on this? How well does it upscale HD content?
