Thick tv? This is a smart tv

£459 in ao.com with GET40 code

I think you need this deal.

The size of the screen and the noticeable difference are all related.

With this screen, to notice the difference between 4k and 1080p, you need to sit at a maximum of 2 metres from the screen. If you room is bigger than this (and for a lounge being wider than 6 ft, that's quite likely) then this is too small to see any discernible difference between 4k and 1080p material.

If your sofa is <2m from where this TV will be placed - you're golden.

Looks good' heat added

They're finally starting to make the uhd versions of cheap, thick tvs I see
Still for this price it's difficult to complain

saw this today but apparently is not real HDR

Good deal for uhd

Yep

God dammit! I just got this delivered yesterday from JL; thank god for their price match service.

Hopefully they get back to me ASAP!

Also, it's quite a nice TV in my opinion. Turns on pretty quick and feels pretty nippy when comparing it to my old TV - although that was 10 years old must I add!

Still, it's pretty nice if you ask me, although the sound is a bit poor compared to my old TV. Must be me being used to having front facing speakers rather than from the bottom!

I'm after a decent 65"er

bravo
well played

I have a dilemma. This Samsung or This LG

4k is pretty pointless on a TV this small, you'll likely never see the benefit.

very tempting..... Im looking for a new tv for the xbox box s that ive got my girls.

​I thought JL ignore other companies warranties when it comes to price matching.

You would need your own Power Station to power that TV. :wink:

£459 in ao.com with GET40 code

Exactly...although 49-50" is about the smallest you'd want to go for a 4K panel.

Very very good deal, considering the 9 series is a grand more

You can see a difference between HD and 4k at this size. I don't understand why people assert that you can't. I mean, jus the mathematics of having a higher pixel density is enough evidence to show that's wrong.

From experience there is definitely finer detail and edges on hard objects and the UI are extremely crisp at 4k. It's very good for gaming where often the text and UI elements can be small - that extra sharpness helps with legibility a deal. When you compare it to HD you realise things are softer as the ppi is lower.

That said, you won't probably be bothered by the difference until you spend some time at 4k but once you do you'll see there is a difference, albeit not one as pronounced as going from HD to SD and it's probably not going to spoil your experience. It's just incorrect to assert that there's no noticeable difference.

Does this run Android?
if so can you install Kodi directly on it?

Does this TV have HDR? As I am reading mixed reports.

If your nose touches the screen, I'm sure you can see it. Otherwise pretty pointless.

I have a 55" 4k TV and it's pretty much no different at all to 1080p. I'd be the first to admit it's pretty much a waste of money getting 4k at 55 inches or below, I've got one.

If it's pointless, why do they make 4k tvs ?

Hughes have a 4k tv on display and the picture looks stunning.

Great price. My old Samsung (48 inch) has a stunning pic so am guessing this will be on par and half the price of what I paid. Amazing. Have some heat.

Nearly 10% cheaper at ao.com with free delivery to my door. GET40

Actually, it most certainly does (have HDR)

​yes. it has an 8 bit panel.

Is there a 55 inch version of this?

Managed to get JL to price match at £502.95 - £499 plus £3.95 p+p.

And you really need 10-bit to get the full benefit of HDR.

Incidentally, proper HDR (10-bit) is considerably more worthwhile than 4k at this size.

I can remember people saying the same thing about HD TV's, pointless unless it's over 40".
Yet the difference was noticeable on a 32" screen.

Absolute rubbish. 720p to 1080p is visible although I must say that I can't see the pixels from my viewing distance with 1080p and therefore there isn't any point to me upgrading. This was going from a 42" 768p to a 48" 1080p which according to you should exacerbate the effect but it just didn't!

720p to 1080p is only visible if you're close enough, you just don't have to be as close as you do to see the 4k benefit.

If you're a 30 year old living in your mum & dad's box room with the TV on your bedside table next to your Xbox, a small 4k TV may be of use. For people with a normal living room, you need a big panel to see anything.

But if you want to return it for a refund then they deduct a fat chunk if the box is open

Can op put model number in title please. Thanks

I want 55" for this price. so COLD for me

Why is this hot when it's £40 cheaper at AO

Its £499 at ao as well?

will this explode?

does ao offer free warranty? thnx

so is the missus :smile:

​I returned a fitted dishwasher at no loss with them

Nope Samsung run there own OS. Unfortunately... Sony TV's operate on Android and Kodi works well.

Thanks for some honest feedback.

Only if you take it on a plane.

Good find, and good luck in getting the wireless link to work if you have a SKY router!

My Samsung tv, granted not this model works ok with my Sky router!!

HOME10 10% DISCOUNT CODE ISN'T WORKING. Price stays at £499

​yes i couldn't agree more.

It isn't meant to? :man:

Also, JL approved the request, so now that's another £90 in my back pocket!

She more like an 85"er ! Dodgy resolution. Refresh rate terrible!

I think you need this deal.

The size of the screen and the noticeable difference are all related.

With this screen, to notice the difference between 4k and 1080p, you need to sit at a maximum of 2 metres from the screen. If you room is bigger than this (and for a lounge being wider than 6 ft, that's quite likely) then this is too small to see any discernible difference between 4k and 1080p material.

Will PS4 work in 4k? Someone just said PS4 goes upto 1080p.

The PS4 is 1080p, so would be upscaled.
The PS4 Pro, which is slated for November 10th release, is 4k.

I'm kind of disappointed now. I've been checking, reading reviews and comparing TVs for the last two days.
Most TVs I'm seeing are 4k so I was thinking of getting 4k one instead of 1080p (few months later they no longer will be available) and get stuck for years (as long as it lasts)
I've not had TV for four years. Since buying PS4 for DS I've finally decided to buy a TV.

Thanks for replying. Needed some advices and tips regarding buying a new TV.

I purchased this television yesterday only to find out all 4, on demand etc is not on the smart tv....so I am disappointed Ive not got catch on there....its coming soon apparently!! After having it on my Samsung curved tv.... Just a point to think about

Nice

​I'm interested in buying this model or the 6400 model, but read somewhere that there is motion judder during movie scenes. have you noticed any motion issues? also interested to hear your view on how the TV upscales Std definition pics to HD and so on? thanks

Worth waiting until Black Friday at this point

I love that graph as it proves both our points expertly. For me, when I game I sit bout 2m away from a 48" screen, therefore worth it. For watching TV I sit around 4m away from a 60" and again, 1080p is worth it. Everyone has different setups and for some it won't be noticeable, however, at typical viewing distances, 1080p makes sense in the 50"+ category.

Touché sir touché

Lord of the Manor!

i have used the 48ju6400 there was no motion judder or delay in voice (something I was looking for) my only gripe with the tv was the poorer sound compared to my old tv

and the remote ergonomics

Sorry to hijack this, I have a box in which Kodi is already preloaded, What do i click in it? Cheers

I have the 6400 and the settings are horrendous out the box, lot of playing about and it works like an absolute dream. No motion flicker/judder whatsoever. All SD channels look great (through Sky box, I don't bother with the tuner). Couldn't recommend the TV enough. Wouldn't bother with football mode though, whoever came up with that idea really needs a good slap as it's shocking!

would this TV work well with the xbox one s, for the graphics ??​

Whether it's worth it on a 50- 60 inch all depends on what you're watching and what you're watching it on, not the size.

Its standard old wives tales that's still propogated. I can tell the difference between 4K and 1080p content on a 24" monitor for chrissakes

wait and get a 10bit panel.

You will regret buying anything less.

Conclusion: you have really bad eyesight or a really crap telly. Or both.

Samsung take ages to get the on demand all working on new models. I have two 9 series and they only have player working properaly. I have 2 H series from 2014 and they have all catch-up perfect. Can take between 6 months to a year, but it will get there

Add the code GET40 and it's £40 cheaper. £459

say 4k but it's not

Just got a £499 JL pricematch so the question is do I want it !

Says who ?

here buy if go to argos in title not say 4k.
so confused

Technology Summary

This 50 inch Samsung 4K Ultra HD Smart TV uses HDR and PurColour technology to bring you four times the pixels of Full HD, giving you sharper shadows and eye-popping colours. The powerful Quad Core processor allows a quick and smooth transition between apps, online services and live TV. Experience the best UHD content from Netflix and Amazon and search for your favourite shows while you watch.

How do you do this?

just cancelled my Hisense 43 inch order from ao after getting this from John Lewis for £499 and their 5 year warranty (Argos price match). Ended up spending a bit more but I'm getting a bigger screen, better TV and longer warranty.

Same price match here as well.

It has these from the get go :

Smart TV Platform Tizen , Freeview HD, FreeSat HD, Amazon Prime, Netflix, Playstation Now, Smart TV (BBC iPlayer, ITV Hub, My5, 4OD)

Maybe the 6 series is more on the ball this year then. As i said my 2016 9 series only has iplayer working at the mo. Itvplayer is all screwed up.

The 6400 (better) is £50 cheaper from crampon and Moore

I don't think you realise that there isn't a decimal point in the number :confused:

Just been out and bought this. It is 4K HDR and the picture quality and sound is top.

Code don't work because it ain't furnishings like curtains or towels.

Isn't that the 40 inch?

Does this have samsung quick connect xant see it listed but the 55 inch version lets u mirror whats on your phone onto tv and vice versa

Guys there is a 10% off TV code for Argos....Use code TVS10 to get it for £449.10 !:stuck_out_tongue:

Rather spend £50 more at JL for 5 yrs warranty.

i might be wrong but i think the human eye is about 130 mpixels,4k is all about the smoothness of one hue to another, nd the ps4 and next xbox are gonna be 4k,so this is a great deal !

Cold.. Not an iphone

​Price match with JL shouldn't be a problem and is very quick. I had my Samsung TV price matched a few weeks ago. I called them up on a Saturday, on Sunday I received email confirmation of my price match and by Monday the money was in my account. Happy days :smiley:

Yeah sorry, it's 40"

Wow the anti 4k is actually quite funny, not all TVs are exclusively for watching TV.... Gaming and PC use will increasingly take advantage of 4k, photos are already at insanely high resolutions and look awesome on a 4k compared to anything else..

But yeah in a massive room 10ft away on a TV programme you'll be hard pushed to spot the difference between this and 1080

But at this price, why worry about it?

What's standard definition like on this tv please?

John Lewis now seem to have price-matched this automatically - £499.00 with five year guarantee.

Blocky.

Indeed :

Like few others here I am also looking for a decent smart tv simple one just for watching TV movies and bit of browsing .. Is this a good option or can I get another Samsung tv at a cheaper price ? Thanks

the JL deal is better with the 5years warranty included

Great buns but no cherry

Mary Berry?[/quote

Great buns but no cherry.

tvs10 for a further 10% off! :wink:

after TVS10 Argos code it works out around £450...
so my question would john lewis price match that?

Doubt it, just pay the extra £49 safe in the knowledge you have 5 yrs warranty with a trusted seller.

Bought today, delivered tonight very happy with the tv. The picture is outstanding and the sound is amazing. Don't listen to all the profits of doom on here moaning about this and that for £450 you can't go wrong it's a steal.

Where do you enter the code? I want to reserve and collect tomorrow.

Thinking of buying this as would like a larger TV, have a 2 yr old 1080p Sony 40", but watch all programmes recorded with Humax 2000t box, never watch real time tv. Will I notice a big difference in quality?

Bought this today using the Argos TVS10 code so thanks for that, the T.V is HUGE! And I upgraded from a 42" OLED, also went through Quidco so saved another fiver making this T V only £445 which for the spec is amazing, It's a must buy if you're in the market for a new T.V

As the Humax does not record 4k you will not see a hugh diference.
The 1080 output of the humax will be upscaled but you cannot create detail that is not there in the original broadcast.
I would say only worth it if you don't mind the look of the upscaled picture and/or if you intend to get 4k from other sources.

yes £449.10 plus £3.95 delivery so total £453.05 and gets tomorrow delivery?

Should I get this now or wait little longer for the 55" to go sub -£500?

Are these better then the hisense models that's been floating about recently

These pass through surround sound? Cant afford to buy a 4k AVReciever at same time so hoping i can just connect it to tvs output and pump everything in thought the tv instead.

Hmm, I went for the 40" model at £377.10, collect today - completing my 2016 refresh. The 10% makes them really competitive right now, but expect these to drop at Christmas and plummet in April when the 2017 range hits

Can't see them dropping much past £450 this is very cheap

Think the recent hisense deal had a 10bit panel, I'd say that's preferable.

Bought. Great value, was gonna hang on but under the £450 seems a great deal.

Would anyone be kind enough to measure the width of the stand itself ? I dont know if it will fit on my unit
Thank you

So this tv is no good for the ps4 pro ?
Looked into it and its not compatable
Might be a deal breaker for me

"You’ll also want to make sure your new TV is 10-bit rather than 8-bit if you are planning on buying the PS4 Pro— if the price seems too good to be true, it’s probably an 8-bit TV that’s already outdated, with a price to match.

This TV will be fine for PS4 Pro. Most people playing this on their 4K TV's wont have HDR, never mind what bit it is.

What you think of Hisense 65M5500?? Is it 10 bits panel?? The price is magnificent.....

Cheers why does it say on sonys requirement list tv needs to be HDR10? Also says 8 bit panels can only read hdr but not fully process hdr which 10 bit panels can

This is news to me, where did you read that?

So basically this tv can accept a hdr signal but cant display it and mimics as close as it can to a hdr picture ?

Yep, basically.

Thanks this plus the 50hz means il pass

Is this a better tv the 49 inch version ?

​From someone who is a total layman as far as HKUD TV enthusiasts go, yes it definitely does. It is a genuine difference in quality, looks so much more like real life. More of a difference than 720p, 1080p, 4K. More of a difference than LCD to LED/LCD. Etc.

Bought this yesterday with the tvs10 code, fast track collection was nice and quick, great deal to replace my older 46" Samsung. Picture quality is very good and the sound is surprisingly good. Paired with my Sky router no issues and also using it with my Sky Q box in UHD mode and enjoying the quality I'm getting

How do you ad the code for click and collect

After you sign in, select the pay now option in the trolley and the option to add a promo code is at the top of the screen followed by the various payment options.

Just paid £500 as I didn't know how to do

They do.
Warranty lenght doesn't count,otherwise they wouldn't price match any tv,since they offer5 years warranty on alltvs and no ither retailer does 5 years warranty.
if they refuse price match for that reason it means the person who refused price match was an idiot and in bad mood,try again.

Yes, 4K is nothing without HDR

Not strictly true, but HDR is certainly worthwhile.

I dont think that's true. Doing abit of research, its seem HDR was invented to get the same picture quality as OLED from normal LED/LCD TV's. Even though you can get OLED TV's with HDR but its switch off by default.

And then there are people who actually understand what they are talking about.

No free extended warranty like Richer Sounds or John Lewis, though of course there is no such thing as "free". They will both retail at an extra £100 (approx) for 5 or 6 year guarantees included, though I don't know much about the detail. I bought a TV from ao recently and the buying and delivery service was excellent, however they do try and hard-sell you the additional warranty which for my TV was a "bargain" £6 a month, or £350 over 5 years. At that rate the additional £100 from RS or JL sounds a genuine bargain. When I asked "Isn't the 2 year manufacturer's warranty good enough?" I was told "Modern energy efficient TVs aren't built to last, they're built to look good". So much for having confidence in the product you are selling! Anyway, I passed on their offer of the additional warranty, we'll see how long my TV lasts...

No idea tbh. haven't really explored that machine.

I bought it from John Lewis, had it delivered yesterday. Have to say, I'm amazed by the picture quality (and the sound, actually - far superior sound to my previous LG). I sat there gawping at the quality of the image, I wasn't expecting such a big leap. My partner arrived home and was instantly impressed, too, and he doesn't generally worry about these things. Not only that, there's a lovely "high end" feel to the set generally, simple menus, connected immediately to wifi, etc. Recommended.

I would have gone for this had it been different size. I am looking for a 32"smart TV with DVD player and as I know nothing about technology, wondered if anyone of the 'experts' on hotukdeals could give me a hands up as to what is a half decent purchase please. Thanks

Getting Hot. Wonder if it will go on fire :smiley:

Code has expired

don't forget free 3month gamefly subscription and wireless controller offer when purchasing this tv from Argos.
http://www.samsung.com/uk/offer/tvgamefly

is this deal back on now?

keep looking at this or the hisense 55inch tv. going to be in a playroom for xbox one and movies etc

Deals back on at 449 with tv10 code been put off myself by reviews on avforums about really bad motion blur when playing ps4 xbox games like fps or fifa due to the 50hz

that will be a deal breaker for me too, as that's what it was going to be bought for. I wonder if the hisense is any better in that regard then

Did anybody else get the software update for this Tv today ?

Yep

Does this support ps4 pro hdr fully
