would have been nice to read some info on this instead of 3 pages of pointless facebook'esque drivel......I remember when this used to be a useful / informative website.....

Excellent deal Maccy, just in time as I need a new tv.

Thanks Maccy

mmmmmmmmmmmm nice :smile:

Tesco kindly mailed me the user guide, which I have uploaded for anybody that wants it for reference.

Totally agree - I'm not a gamer but I've had this TV for about a week now and can confirm that there is no motion blur when my son is playing Star Wars Battlefront on a Xbox One. Actually, there's no motion blur when he plays it when hooked up to a ~10 year old cheapo 32" Hannspree TV either. The HDMI cable must be about 5 years old and so nothing special there either.
My other experiences with this TV so far:
- SD channels look quite awful - everything looks quite muddy and washed out - no amount of tweaking picture settings have helped so far
- HD channels look a lot better but still not 100% happy with the colour - nowhere near as crisp as I would like
- Xbox and PC playback (at 1080p) are much much better: more than perfectly acceptable to my untrained eye
- just tried playing this 4K video (https://vimeo.com/93003441) directly from a USB memory stick and it looks great
- Smart features seem to work quite well except I can only connect it to the internet by a wired connection: wireless doesn't seem to work for me. Don't think I've succeeded playing 4K videos from youtube - there's no way I can see of telling which resolution is being streamed - but it looks like 1080p at best and could be a consequence of my sub-standard internet speed dictating which resolution is being streamed

My conclusion: if it wasn't for the fact that the picture looks good with external content (ie, Xbox, chromecast, USB, PC) then I would have returned this already. As things stand, I'll probably keep it....

Ps: I don't have Sky, Now TV, etc and so I won't be able to confirm how they perform on this TV. I also don't understand HDMI versions and so can't confirm which ones it has...

just checking (as I cant find it on the instructions), are these 4 the holes for a tv bracket? they are 20 cm apart so I'm guessing they are?

Thanks! (Picture)

Does anyone know if you can Play 4K videos form USB and what format is supported?

I have a panasonic 4k Camcorder and would love to test this out.

Quite often, when playing content, if you press the OK button the remote, the frequency will be displayed on the top of the screen along with the resolution of the content being played.

You could try and download some video samples to a USB stick and play them through there to see the different rates that the TV can support (24, 50, 60 etc)

This should help to answer your 59hz query.

https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/2006076

First thing is to check your settings on the devices themselves. On the laptop it will vary depending on whether it has Nvidia/AMD or Intel onboard graphics. On the PS4 I think by default it autodetects the video mode to use, though I'd always suggest setting your preferred options directly as there is always the danger the "auto" option may not set the best options for your display.

On the actual TV there is usually a "information" "info" "display" or similar button that brings up the details of the signal being input such as resolution and refresh rate.

Oddly when I use my PC on my TV, I always seem to get 59HZ instead of 60, though it's such a small difference I doubt it has any noticeable impact....

So I have taken delivery of the TV. Please can someone tell me how to determine if the 1080p/4k content is being played @ 50hz or lower?

Cheers

Can someone who has received the TV please confirm or deny this? ^

It's a TV not a gaming monitor. 50HZ is the PAL standard frequency and has been pretty much as long as we have had television, it doesn't mean the motion handling of the TV is poor. As with pretty much any TV since the 90s it will handle 60HZ if it needs to (e.g. NTSC material).

IMO people blow the whole motion handling thing way out of proportion. Most TVs are at least adequate (if not ideal) for gaming. Most of the blur where it occurs comes from silly picture enhancement technologies in TVs. Once you turn off all the image enhancement technology and switch the TV to "game mode" most TVs are fine....

seen in store

50 mgh far too slow motion blurr central

after setting up and using the tv for a bit I can say that it is actually very nice, the quality seems good and the smart features are quick to access. The sound is average, if it was for me I would probably use a sound bar or something but for general use for my dad it seems fine.

Ordered thanks.

Ordered, thanks OP

I am cancelling because I don't believe that any of the ports are HDMi 2.0 because 1080p and 4K are only supported up to 30hz, which means 1.4.

Noooo don't say that, I won't sleep tonight :laughing: only buy it if you really 'need' it :laughing:

Dammit Maccy

You talked me into it.

I blame you for everything from now on.

You have one then?

Any reviews on the TV?

Looking for a cheapish 43-50inch to for my parents but needs to be a decant quality.

Mr T, it's like you don't know me :disappointed::laughing:



I think I better get back to my gingerbread house FD :laughing:

tempted. How much more would a 3d version cost?

Not everything from Tesco is posted by Chanch :wink:

Well, Maybe 95% of it :smile:

Thanks for posting Chanchi!

I loved the facebook'esque thread :smiley:

Brilliant spot op

£225 for employees

Happy to help summer :laughing:

Thanks for posting the reviews maccy :laughing:

Thank you for all your research and help Reddit, I hope it helps some on making a decision :smile:

It is best to find out yourself sometimes, then there's no disappointment :smiley:

cold terrible pq and lag

Just got off a live chat with an Argos rep.

If the TV is the same as this Bush, which it looks like it is, then 3 of the HDMI ports are 1.4 and 1 is 2.0

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4489782.htm#bv_qa

However, downloading the manual for the Bush seems to show that up to 4096x2160p @60hz is possible from all 4 ports.

This listing says that it is, which makes it very attractive.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Digihome-48-Ultra-HD-4k-Smart-LED-TV-Freeview-HD-4-HDMI-3-USB-WiFi-/122038761739

Edit: Maybe not. Part of the listing states HDMI 2 but then lower down it states 4 HDMI socket (v1.1-v1.4)

Quick explanation (she says) :laughing:

youtube link in the 2nd from right at the right hand side of comment box.
gif link in the 3rd from right.

...good luck :laughing:

i was going to add 1 but i've forgot how to :laughing:

Sorry woz :disappointed::laughing:

all them gifs and not one clickable song ...... :disappointed:

I hope someone can answer that for you reddit, as I'm not sure myself :smiley:

One thing I would like to know is how many of the HDMI ports are 2.0 because with having seen that many vendors are happily to call products 4k but only have HDMI 1.4 ports, I would not be happy to purchase such a TV if none of them were 2.0.

Thank you for your post, sometimes a little research of your own goes a long way, I've posted reviews that are on the Tesco website so you can read up. :smiley:

:laughing:

Damn this place for tempting me into evil deeds.

Haha, I know that feeling, I could end up with a garage full of things if I let myself...




oh wait :man::laughing:

I keep telling myself that to stop me getting me getting my credit card out.

Thank you reddit, I was thinking exactly the same myself :smiley:

Hi, that's a 55" TV, you can tell by the 55 bit on the first part of the model number :smile: (ps I didn't realise that before either) :laughing:

For the specs and price, it's a no brainer if you want a cheap 4k TV.

Going to wait for HDR sets to come down myself though.

Does anyone know if this is the model number 55304UHDSM? I found this review but I'm not sure if it's the same.

Mmmmm nice with chips :laughing:

There are reviews on Tesco website itself...

Hope that helps :smiley:

You're very welcome :smiley:

I know :disappointed::laughing:

Show More on Product Specifications seems to take me to Amazon.co.uk :neutral_face:

I ordered one for my Dad, its a good way to see if the Tv is good before I order for myself

Thank you. Heat added and ordered for my boys room. Was looking at a 42" in Argos for £20 cheaper so this is a no brainier!

According to BBC it is VESTEL, yes :smiley: model number 48300UHDLEDCNTD

http://iplayerhelp.external.bbc.co.uk/tv/connected/vestel

HOT, for the price

Anybody own one of these? Tempted to buy but can't find any reviews online.

Suitable for vegetarians too. Which is nice :stuck_out_tongue:

It's a "Digihome" AVOID!

Cold, only 4 HDMI

:wink:

Is the quality any good on these?

Kinda agree with you, unusually for this place though, this thread is almost useless....

Guess which one is you

would have been nice to read some info on this instead of 3 pages of pointless facebook'esque drivel......I remember when this used to be a useful / informative website.....

well it's cheap so it's obviously not going to be an amazing tv, you get what you pay for. but you can't grumble for that price.

Looks like a decent TV, any real world reviews out there or anyone who owns one?

Does anyone know how long this offer will be on for? Is 3 weeks too long to wait for this?

Think Summer happened in Spring this year, Maccy, if you get my drift. :wink: Hope you have a super Saturday too. :laughing: xx

Cheers FD :smile:

Great find, Mac :wink:

Much easier and you get to keep your tv in one piece as well :laughing:

All good here thank you, just waiting for a bit of sun to show its face (might be wishful thinking today) :smile:

Have a lovely day xx

Couldn't agree more, Maccy. Think I'll stick with the yoga :smile:
All good here, thank you and hope likewise with you. :laughing:

I always knew exercise was bad for you :laughing:

Thanks tawny, hope you're keeping well <3

Can never have too many tellys, Maccy...

Fab find. :smile:

The only serious problem I have after buying the OLED tv is I can't stop watching tv it's that good of picture. I'm so blessed that this tv was invented in my generation. Thank you God.

Mate, I do hope you were aware of the serious banding issues reported by owners on certain models of these LG OLED 4Ks:
https://www.avforums.com/threads/lg-65e6v-owners-banding-issues.2025357/

Hey Hari, I've played a lot of Rocket League on mine. I'd chack the motion rate on thhis TV. My TV has a motion rate of 1500 and is pretty smooth. :smiley:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXCpYgd338U:laughing:
Heat added

Oh thats one of those LG's with all the serious problems :man:

Your dog looks right at home to say you only bought him/her today :smiley:



:laughing:

Damn why didn't I see this before I bought this today

Hi hari, I hope someone can answer that question for you, not really up on this gaming lark :laughing:

But I completely see what you're saying :smiley:

OK so anyone know if any of these budget 4K sets are any good for gaming? fast gaming too, like Overwatch on XB1, my boys birthday in 2 week and has asked for a new TV for the XB1 in his room, I was going to get a Samsung 32" but it seems for not much more i can get a large 4K, but its no good if the gaming isn't any good.

His old TV is only 720p but its got some serious retention issues, its becoming unplayable.

Close call that Andy :laughing:

Excellent deal Maccy, just in time as I need a new tv.

I missed that biddy...



...I was busy making my TV :laughing:

You've been spying :laughing:

Noooooo deeky :laughing:

Superfluous.

'You're getting like deeky' indeed :neutral_face:


:laughing:

Lolz. The second 'show more' button takes you to Amazon

Oh you make them yourself? :neutral_face::laughing:

...and that was after I thought about it as well :laughing:

So tempting, wish I needed one

COLD.

Needed to be the other way around. :smirk::laughing:

Thanks Maccy

Please hurry... Mine is broken



:laughing:

What about the standby light, Maccy? Is it off when off or on when off. Important detail that. :man::laughing:

All aboard...



:laughing:

I have enough TV's as well, but I must admit I'm tempted, even to put in the garage :laughing: it's got 3.6 out of 5 stars, I have a couple of the smaller 32" one's in spare bedrooms and the picture is immaculate on those.

Yes but is it a vessel ?

Or whatever it is most on here seem to ask nowadays.


All I know it's smart and the price is smart.

That's a match :smile:

Hot.

I have enough TVs though is this actually any good

20% staff discount do I need one though

Great vision on finding this one maccy, hope your well, heat added :smiley:

mmmmmmmmmmmm nice :smile:
