49" UHD not smart but seems a good price. Says its 400hz but I would like to know if it's 4K at 60hz? The 400hz must be for 1080p

Awful TV. Tried 2 43in ones which both had vertical ghost lines, swapped again but then went for this 49in one which was awful! Had more ghosting and all the edges and left side of the screen were covered in pressure marks that are very noticeable when the screen is dark and constantly notable when watching movies. Before I took it back I tested how much pressure would make a mark and it was basically the slightest touch would leave a mark you can not get rid of. Also the TV doesn't do blacks... All blacks are grey, you have to mess about way too much with the picture settings and I could never get one that looked good. I really don't understand how anyone can this this is a good TV because they are pure garbage
Here is a picture of the left side showing the marks which are worse than they look.

It's called light bleed, it's when the backlight of the panel leaks around the edge of the LCD. Almost all screens have it to some degree, although generally it's something that is more prominent in tablets and laptops as the size makes the manufacturing a lot harder than a TV. Typically though it looks much worse in pictures, so you must also have a terrible camera.

Had issues with a couple of Philips tvs recently, the brand just isn't what it used to be.

My son is very happy with his 43 inch version and in the limited time I've experienced it I have to say it seems absolutely fine? Are we easily pleased? :man:
