Yes it's another cheap TV, £249 - £25 with code TDX-HTNK which expires tomorrow. Other cheap TVs available from Tesco direct with various badges. :smiley:
Just ordered the non smart version for an elderly neighbour for £224 link...
Both are 1080 (Full HD), if you need 4K look elsewhere with more money. :wink:

Vestel rebadge. £55-75 more for version with 4K panel. Not saying this info makes it hot or cold but just pointing out if anyone is considering paying £230 for a bottom of the range full HD tv surely might as well pay £300 for bottom of the range 4K?

I really don't get the urge to buy a 4k TV when there is nothing* to watch.
*Yes, I am aware of the fact that there are 4k videos out there though for the majority of people there is nothing to watch. I'd rather 'see' some more 1080p broadcast programmes to make use of the technology we have already though since everyone here seems happy to berate anything not 4k I'll get my coat. :wink:

pointless comment as it's £70 difference, may as well say pay an extra £200 for an LG ......

Depends unless you have a number of 4k feeds now the picture on SD & HD may well be better on the non-4k version; I doubt the upscaling on the 4k version will be any good.

Yup and Netflix is recording new shows in 4K among others eg Sky and BT both show all top level football in 4K.

I didn't say you did though why spend more money buying a 4k TV when the best broadcast TV we typically have is 720p?

I was just trying to help people out my friend, your trolling comment is the pointless one :smiley:

I was just pointing out that there is a narrow gap at the bottom end of the market between the cheapest Full HD and the cheapest Ultra HD sets, all other specs being roughly equal. This I am certain is useful information. For what it's worth I think you are a little out, we've been watching shows, movies, sports in 1080p for a very long time on our 2007 Panasonic, the vast majority of content is now available in full HD and gradually 4K too. Watching the football ARSvCHE right now in 4K in fact. Amazing that it can be piped down the phone line considering we were on dial-up still less than 20 years ago.

I guess they would need to be viewed side-by-side to answer that one.
