Shame only ONE HDMI socket.

As stated above, but can easily get a hdmi three hdmi splitter/auto changer :smirk:

If you have a home cinema system, you only need one HDMI port on the TV - Sky box, games consoles etc go into surround receiver, HDMI Out on the receiver then goes to the TV port.

rather that seiko one posted for 169

Lack of HDMI seems the only negative at this price

Biggest negative is lack of audio output meaning stuck with onboard speakers

Why why why only 1 hdmi? LG must know!

Looks very much like the cheap tesco ones at the moment.. Digihome.... look at the stands and the same 43inch model? STRANGE

I own this ok TV But no Hd Freeview Picture is good

3mm jack to soundbar/external speaker?

rather that seiko one posted for 169

how can i connect to soundbar if there is no audio output ?

Connect audio out from the source to your soundbar. For example optical connection.

this Tv does not have any audio out

Exactly my point bought the seiki myself much better for the price 3 hdmi 2usb and optical plus headphone out

By source, I mean, blu ray, sky, ps4 etc

Great TV and great price for a simple setup, thanks so much for sharing.

​do you mean run a wire from tv to dky box or dvd ?

The poor can only afford Sky or a singular games console......

Does it play everything via usb?

considering the connections, does anyone know how to output the sound to a home cinema system? additionally, can someone please send a picture of the back clearly showing the connections as I'm really interested in buying it. thanks.

why oh why do they have these stupid Bloody feet on them ....plus only 1 hdmi ..hmm this or the Seiki....:neutral_face:

i just sent back the seiki for this :smiley:

nice deal

Doesn't have one. You have to get audio out from the external devices if you want to use external speakers.

To the people picking this apart for 1 HDMI (which is plenty for a standard living room TV) or tinny sound (which is not true as I have one myself) think about this. An LED full HD 1080p 43'' tv from a company as big and reputable as LG, for 179 quid, with free delivery?

I posted the 49'' version of this TV from LG too, at 309 it got 100 degrees, this is miles better. if you don't think this is a bargian you're mad.

nice deal,ty

While a limited port TV, you can use a variety of methods to gain external sound. One key gadget is this to allow for a RCA port https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B0014HB4YO?keywords=SCART%20to%20RCA%20Adapter%20-%20Scart%20%26%2334%3BOUT%26%2334%3B&pc_redir=T1&qid=1451929294&s=electronics&sr=1-6&tag=viglink_thaus-21

I have found the solution for this. We're looking for "HDMI splitter with audio output", please search at Ebay/Google.
Not sure how good is the quality of the sound through this splitter. Hopefully it will resolve the issue with no audio output. Because I want to output the HDMI audio to my soundbar. I admitted this is a good price. I actually found this TV at this price at Tesco but it was out of stock. Thanks op.

If you have a home cinema system, you only need one HDMI port on the TV - Sky box, games consoles etc go into surround receiver, HDMI Out on the receiver then goes to the TV port.

Wondering also if this or the seiki?
The seiki does seems to get rather good reviews.

Do i need it? Nop.. Do I want it? YESSSS :smile:

All i have to communicate is that i have very bad experience from ao. just check their return policy, which is very customer unfriendly to say the least. if you are unlucky and want to return your tv (happened to me) you will lose about 45% of your money, for their claimed "14 day free' returns. All i say is check their terms and conditions first.

Cold from me due to the retailer.

I would have thought eBay's policies would apply - would they not?

The Seiki model seems to lag behind some of LG's features, based on AO's specifications list:
Power consumption: 70w (Seiki) vs 36w (LG)
Motion rate: 60hz (Seiki) vs 300hz (LG)
Dolby sound: No (Seiki) vs Yes (LG)

If you have a Receiver that predates HDMI inputs and need to feed it optical then buy a HDMI audio extractor, otherwise if you have a receiver with HDMI inputs you really have no problem.

Thats why they are cheap!
And of course being LG is another!

Crazylegs....are you trying to say...LG are crap?...I've got a LG 47" lcd that I bought in 2008 and it's still going strong...I think you need to get your facts right coz clearly you haven't got a clue what your talking about!!! :P nothing wrong with LG at all!!!! :P

Not sure what happens in this case. I don't know what supersedes, but for a fact i know that ao has not been the best retailer for me, i stay away since then.

Doesn't seem to deliver to Northern Ireland?

Oos

Oos. If any1 finds same deal else where please comment as regret not ordering yesterday

​Ok.

can anyone answer this, id prefer to speak to someone direct than google lies :P

Both my mum and my sister bought this direct from the AO website, £20 more though but still a steal if anyone is still wanting one :smiley:

Ah, just checked and its sold out on there too, sorry guys

Seems to be available again now.

OOS again :disappointed:

Oos again.

Shame. Could've used the 4.4% TCB.

Hello. How can you apply for that %? Cheers

​Sign up to the topcashback site

Yes I saw a cheap and cheerful one posted the other day, unheard of brand - Onkyo or something like that? Would probably do the job, obviously wouldn't be upto Sony quality though :man:

​What's a dky box?

Back to 1% now.

​Plug sources into soundbar then soundbar out into TV's HDMI in. Sorts the lack of HDMI inputs too.

Ordered 1 Sunday got cancelled so ordered the seiki, seems good either way

​Dky Dports

ONE??? I thought 2 was bad and bare minimum. This is taking the biscuit

HDMI royalty rates are as follows:

For each end-user Licensed Product, fifteen cents (US$0.15) per unit sold. If the Adopter reasonably uses the HDMI logo on the product and promotional materials, then the rate drops to five cents (US$0.05) per unit sold.
HDMI Adopters pay an annual fee of ten thousand dollars (US$10,000).

Would this or the Medion (http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/medion-life-50-lcd-tv-with-roku-p18047-medion-249-99-2455721) be better for playing Xbox one/PS4 on?

Sort of leaning towards the Medion but not sure as I've no experience of them

Does anyone know if this has a USB port? I'd like to connect a Chromecast to it.

Yes it has 1 x USB.

I received mine today - connected to my FireTV works like a charm.
it has got usb
has got a ethernet socket too
Connected bluetooth speakers to FireTV as no audio out on the TV

Back in stock just grabbed one, absolute bargain,... be quick

no headphone socket either... no audio output... how to connect this to external speakers ?

good price and perfect for the kitchen!

Yes, but you're then stuck with the same settings across all of your inputs. Absolute faff if you have a games console hooked up.

Not to mention the fact that you either have to use a separate remote to switch inputs or even use the buttons on the box itself.

1 HDMI not good.

Please see comment #27, #28

I've received mine today as well. It's quite big from our previous 32" :stuck_out_tongue:

The delivery by expert logistic is very cool.

Just ordered

Does anyone know the function of LAN port for this TV ?
How about the satellite input?

yeah even I was confused what is the lan port for.
perhaps - firmware updates etc?

Still showing as 9 available. !

The specification list states that there is no LAN port on this TV: Ethernet (LAN) Input: No

I imagine they only include an ethernet port on their Smart TVs.

The Which listing for this TV explains the satellite input thus: This TV has a built in satellite tuner (known as DVB-S), which can be used to receive services such as Freesat.

Actually there is one LAN port. I received mine this afternoon.

Okay, fair enough. Of course, it might not be connected to anything.

1st world problems.

1st world product.

All gone

​I can confirm this item doesn't work for audio output to Soundbar. Such a waste of money. It's better to buy the HDMI audio Splitter or HDMI audio extractor.

Hi

can you confirm what soundbar did you test and assuming you used the optical output ?

I have a Phillips Htl 5140. I tried to use that SCART output with stereo analog output going to 3.5mm socket, unfortunatelly it doesn't work. I'm planning to buy the HDMI audio extractor or HDMI Splitter. The good thing with this Telly it can play 3TB external HDD. I also can use the satellite tuner if you have a satellite dish.
