Been looking at LG 49UH750V 49" for quite a while now and AO.com currently has £150 cash back on this TV.
Since their price match is very good and they can match most of retailers I went on pricespy to try find the same model at cheaper price. Cheapest found was at Appliances Electronics for £719.
They price matched it without any problems and also said the product will be eligible for £150 cash back.
Free next day delivery as well!
Total cost: £569
Bargain.

I think the cashback offer has ended, not seeing the tab for it now :disappointed:

they gotta make TVs to suit all budgets I suppose.. they won't make much money selling top end TVs alone, so they sell entry level TVs for the masses too
same with mobiles, for every G5 there's a Cookie :wink:

I stand corrected! How can LG get away with putting 8K panels on 2016 4K TV's?!
This is definitely too new to be an 8 bit panel. What is your source?

Anyone know if this is a 10bit panel?

Nationwide card customers can get 1% cash back on purchases at AO.com for online orders if that helps :smiley:

you'd be better off getting this from Richer Sounds for £799, as you get the 6 year warranty thrown in... it's an extra purchase from AO
AO charge a minimum of £5 per month (impossible to find exact care price) - if you ignore the first year, that's 60 months @ £5 = £300, taking your total outlay here to £1019, or £869 after your cashback

Yes, we all buy tvs for a warranty. Going with your reasoning, we should only buy tvs with long lasting warranty then?
If we talking long term warranty, this tv comes with 2 year warranty (EU law) and if you were to purchase AO care plan after 2 years, that would make it about the same price. Bear in mind that AO care plan is an extensive cover and covers things that normal warranty doesn't cover e.g. accidental damage.
Anyway I posted this because it's by far the cheapest price available for this particular model, £230 less than what you would pay with Richer Sound or anyone else. That's a huge discount.

I've not onced had a tv pack up within 5 years and probably get a new set every 3-4 years anyway and if they do pack up its usually in the first few months or not at all from my understanding

I think Richer Sounds charge a 10% restocking fee. Sounds like they just liked you.

is this true full HDR like it displays everything like even bbc 1 eastenders in HDR? or is it only HDR nextflix/amazon etc?
moneysavingkitten to iz123456789

Eastenders isn't filmed in HDR, no current broadcast TV is. So only probably only Netflix at the moment.
It's an 8bit panel.
770 is better imo, but it's still not 10bit. It's 8bit + dithering. People also report issues with vertical bands cause by the configuration of the local dimming. Probably worth a read about before you buy.

Is it not worth putting the extra bit of money in and getting the 49UH770V for £689?
found out the TV cover is £7.49/month, so it's worse than originally quoted

what? what is the tv cover? £7.49

Try arguing the two years' cover with AO. These are guys who charge a 20% plus restocking fee for a box-opened TV within 14 days of purchase.
Richer Sounds have probably the best value for money extended warranty in the UK - 10% of price for an extra 5 years' cover AND if you don't use it you can get it all back in the last month. Plus, their CS leaves everyone else in the shade. I was allowed to audition two sets of speakers at home before I settled for the pair I currently have. Try that with AO or Currys.

Sorry to sound simple, but what is HDR TV? Is it 4K Free view HD?
Michalux to thefoosfan2011
21 Aug 16#12
And it's got freeview hd

No, there is no 4K Freeview. HDR is high dynamic range
