I only came here for the £29.99 telly this is a joke!!

​Then stop doing that and walk away. after a week of owning it, it will be something that you no longer appreciate and wonder why you bought it.

I do *need* a new TV. My current one is a hand me down plasma from c. 2005 from a friend. no HD, and the batteries keep falling out of the remote. I can't play PlayStation, but hey, that's fine.

Remember - if you don't need it, its not a bargain. you can do this.

you've got one have you? a Lot of folk are buying this (me included) for gaming/kids bedroom tv for console use, so yeah, let's spend £700+ to ensure we get HDR blah blah.

Like the age old "must be 1080p" rubbish, ask the average TV viewer if they can tell the difference between 720p sky and 1080p...

I can imagine this "must have HDR" argument is about as important to the average TV buyer as that.

Same !!

Hot for the price, might be better to try and get others to price match for a better guarantee though, heat added though

Is the panel 16bit like a SNES?

Same on price on Ebay Black Friday Deals

Not sure they do - but i'm trying to get hold of customer services to check now - if i cant get the price match - may well just save the £50 and grab this one

Does this have HDR too please?

This is getting tempting. A bit concerned as to why it is being so heavily discounted everywhere though..

For those with Nectar - don't forget your bonus points for the 10* offer!!

Great price, personally I'd pay the little extra for the 5 year warranty though for the reassurance.

This is a smart TV as per the description

Sorry I noticed afterwards and tried to delete the comment!
I have a Philips 6400 series 4K TV (40PUT6400) which has Android (only advantage over Samsung) on it but I think this will defo have a better picture quality?

I just bought this tv off ebuyer for 339.99, I can say it is really good, menu is slick, apps load fast iplayer etc and Xbox one s plays nice on it also!

Bargain at 299.99! I should have waited haha

Can John Lewis price match this?

JVC 40" 4k Ultra HD at Currys for £269 worth considering?

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/jvc-lt-40c860-smart-4k-ultra-hd-40-led-tv-for-269-delivered-currys-2555101

Why are you doing this to me? I don't need a TV but I'm slowly convincing myself that I do

Would users be able to download Kodi on this tv?

It doesn't play HDR content properly like a 10-bit panel, it merely processes the signal to convert it to 8-bit which is not as good. 10-bit panels cost at least £550 so this is a very good price nonetheless. I have the 40KU6000 which I think is the same but with a different stand and 4K is a big improvement, couldn't justify the cost of HDR10 yet.

what are the speakers like on this ?

is this a good price ?

Irritatingly tempting... I think I read somewhere that the number of Nectar points that you can get 10x on was 100.

Just Heads Up Spoke to John Lewis they will Price match and lower price if Tom or next feew days they lower than the £299 mark so benefit from the JL Warranty !

Could do with the 50" sub £400, any out there....

​fishluke where have you seen hdr10 from £550?
genuine interest

I wouldn't buy anything from coop electrical eBay, bought a Samsung smart tv off 18 mo ago them that is very dodgy, very slow and backlight on screen was uneven, looked like it had minor water damage. They wouldn't answer most of my emails and when they did they just said contact Samsung.

Purchase now or wait for tomorrow for Black Friday deals?

Has really good reviews this TV, 4.8 out of 5 stars pretty much everywhere. Now if only John Lewis would price match!

Since it's ebay take it I wont be able to use Co-op employee discount?

Thanks for the heads up

I have just bought the 50" from Currys at £449. I have to say it's a very good TV for the money. Yes it's not a 10bit panel but you need to double your spend to get one. 4k is good and the upscaling is far better than I was expecting. Sound quality is also far better than I had hoped. I use an AV receiver so it was not important but for the short space of time that I tried it I can't fault it. At this price point I don't think there are many 4k panels out there that can compete in the 40" size range.

Can I use this as a computer monitor?

brought a microwave from co-op blew up within 15 seconds of plugging in customer service was fantastic they picked up next day .. refunded money straight away ( was a daewoo microwave previous one lasted 12 years)

So will you get 30,000 points then? That would equate to £150 in points!!!

After having 50inch i carnt go to 40 , i have been ruined

Surely that depends on what room you are buying it for.... i.e How far away you're sitting from it, How much space you have in that room ?

​ummm 300 x 10 is 3000

No, you would get 10 x 300 points which equals 3000 point. So £15 in theory, but I think they put a cap on it being 100 points. Can anyone confirm? The Nectar website seems to have crashed!

Been looking at this over the past week or so. Told myself if it went under £300 I would buy so have done just that. Thanks OP

This one from Tesco http://www.tesco.com/direct/sony-bravia-kd43xd8088bu-smart-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-43-inch-led-tv/110-4946.prd?skuId=110-4946. Think Argos had one the same/similar for £529 with a hidden code that was posted here the other day too.

Also just realised I have last year's model of this TV with a different stand but I expect they are essentially the same.

Just called AO to cancel my order so I can get this and they price-matched it there and then!

It's only £50 more expensive in Richer Sounds and you get a 6yr warranty then... (if you sign up as a VIP for free)

http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/samsung/ue40ku6020/sams-ue40ku6020

...might even be able to get it for £289.99...

https://www.richersounds.com/information/pricebeat

Don't understand why so many people want 4k anyway. Most popular TV channels are 720p and the rest are still 480i - gonna look horrendous upscaled to 4k. Unless all you do is watch 4k Blurays or 4k gaming, what's the point? 1080p will give you better overall viewing quality.

I just contacted JL and they wouldn't price match, can you post what telephone number you used and department you spoke to please.

I only came here for the £29.99 telly this is a joke!!

​cheers, it's 669 at Richersounds not bad

Haha! Me too...

Nobody is sending this tv to NI :disappointed: .
Do You know, if I ca use this tv instead of pc monitor?

​No you can't. Its not an Android Smart TV

Came here after the HDUK whatsapp messages stated "Samsung 40 4K ultra HD tv @£29.99"

I am disappoint. Lol.

Same !!

Funny... However 16bit on the SNES refers to the processor. Nothing to do with colours.

The processor in this TV however is likely capable of 32bit processing and is much better than the processor in the SNES :smiley:

Do richer sounds price match deals like this? Their site says they even will try and price match black friday though not read the terms.

Just rang Richer Sounds, they won't price match due to the guarantee length, since they offer 6 Years compared to Co-op's 12 months. Oh well, fingers crossed for John Lewis!

FYI ao.com will price match this. I just spoke with them on the phone, they matched at £299.99 with free delivery (for me) tomorrow. They also said if the price goes lower tomorrow, they will refund the difference.

Omg I thought this said 29.99 on the WhatsApp text! Boy did I run :disappointed:

Ok it did say 29.99 that you HUKD!

sad that it doesnt post to northern ireland :disappointed:

What is AO.com's warranty period? Standard 12 month or different? Never used them before.

same here. disappointed..:disappointed:

The longer guarantee at John Lewis and Richer sounds is well worth the £50 extra imo as I have had I lot of problems with Samsung TV's in the past having dodgy panels.

Yes, 1 year warranty. Extra paid monthly D&G protection/warranty available too. http://ao.com/product/ue40ku6020-samsung-tv-black-44130-108.aspx

oh nuts, bought it from Ebuyer earlier in the week for £349.

Thanks mate

AO.com price-matched, if you'd rather deal with them instead.

Some people may buy one at the lower price from Co-Op, and return the new boxed one to Ebuyer under distance selling regulations...:man:

I bought a Daewoo microwave from Asda once, and it blew up on first use too lol

For existing orders maybe, however when in their online chat they are unable to price match with eBay.

No Richer Sounds wouldn't touch a price match unless the warranty was the same, or you could upgrade the warranty with Co-Op and the price was still lower than RS.

Try over the phone, had no issues there. It wasn't an existing order either.

Thanks for the tip, will try this on my lunch break for sure.

Not £29.99, COLD.

what is the sound like on this?

As long as you PC has an HDMI port, then sure you can. If you need a long HDMI, just get one off eBay. Dirt cheap and work fine. I had one 9 metres in length, no issue.

They said they would if it is a very similar warranty, so John Lewis at 5 years

ao.com price matched

Would this be a better deal than the Sharp £199 49" @ Tesco (given that one works out)

Do they not check serial numbers etc?

just been on online chat with AO and they said cannot price match

is this classes as a thin bezel model?

Now why did i buy a tv 3 months ago :disappointed: should have waited

Can't see ao price matching. Does not meet the ao T&C for price match.

they wouldnt do it for me said cant price match ebay

I'd always buy from Richer Sounds or JL for the guarantee, saying that their price match is a bit meaningless though. They might as well say "we'll price match john lewis".

FROM AO:
Tobias
11:48:07 a.m.Hi Chinna
11:48:33 a.m.I'm very sorry to say we're unable to price match with eBay

you can double that £550 easily, I've not seen a true 10bit panel that cheap

ao.com won't price match, just spoken to them

So for me, I picked up an Xbox One in October as I want to play a few exclusives. Plus you get 4K Netflix etc on it too. I need a new TV anyways, so you can either buy a 4K panel like this for £300, or get a normal 1080 screen for say £200 bucks. Personally I'd say it's worth the extra hundred quid, but obviously not everyone will feel the same. Each to their own and all that. :smiley:

AO have just priced match for me and add the £20 coupon for registering, so £279.99 wow

It has to have Android on it for kodi to be installed.

Has anyone got any idea of the input lag for gaming?

Are you mad? I can't buy a big telly, people might think I'm working class.

not worth buying if got slow broadband ? will be 6 months until i go back on fibre. can content be downloaded on to a usb stick and work om tv?

​ me also

​Then stop doing that and walk away. after a week of owning it, it will be something that you no longer appreciate and wonder why you bought it.

I do *need* a new TV. My current one is a hand me down plasma from c. 2005 from a friend. no HD, and the batteries keep falling out of the remote. I can't play PlayStation, but hey, that's fine.

Remember - if you don't need it, its not a bargain. you can do this.

Wow I can't say no to that. Killer price for a 4k panel from a decent manufacturer 3k points as well need another screen hot!

Smokey hot deal, ordered one for the rents. :smile: thanks OP

ao.com now will price match , just spoken to online chat

I spoke to Phil Schofield and he said I could quote his extension number 1421 if the sales team queried the price match

130 sold in an hour!

Ordered one thanks OP

No, it's 8-bit like a NES :smirk:

/s

Are you sure you did'nt accidentally sign for a delivery for Nigel Farage?

After initially declining the price match, ao responded with the following:


This may be of some use to someone so thought I'd post.

Should I get this budget 4k tv or a decent 1080p one for the same price? You won't even see the difference on a 40" and there are things like motion blur.. greying of blacks etc...

is ao's Web chat down? can't seem to connect to find out about price match

​top guy

Nope, £569

https://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/sony/bravia-kd43xd8088/sony-kd43xd8088bu

Would this be good for pc gaming?

ao price match confirmed again!! plus register a new account gets you a further £20 beating this price :smile: hope this helps someone

black friday for you..junk of a tv

Not 10 bit, not worth it.

Vibrations that travel through the air or another medium and can be heard when they reach a person's or animal's ear...

Why is the JVC deal at Currys @ £269 not getting as much 'heat' as this deal? Similar TV £40 cheaper?

Why is it junk?

Is this a smart tv?

Of course. Besides a few small details like the connections on the back, speakers, menu settings and maybe response time, the only real difference between computer monitor and a modern TV is ones called a monitor and ones called a TV...........oh and the price. Can't imagine many people would want to sit right in front of a 40" PC monitor though.

thanks op!! AO price matched and £20 registration code = £279.99, brilliant TV for that price!

How do you get the price match and then the extra £20 off ? How does the price match work is it like John Lewis where they refund after purchase?

oos

go on ao register a new email activate the account receive the code via email give them a call price match and add code job done

Thanks

Lol

OOS

Jvc

tv doesnt have a wide colour gamut so hdr wont be any use for the signal

Good 40" 1080p or thus shoddy 4k one?

OOS so no more price match I guess... AO just told me that would price match and give £20 new customer discount

Was on the phone to AO and they got an email telling them they could no longer price match

you've got one have you? a Lot of folk are buying this (me included) for gaming/kids bedroom tv for console use, so yeah, let's spend £700+ to ensure we get HDR blah blah.

I can imagine this "must have HDR" argument is about as important to the average TV buyer as that.

AO just told me that they would price match but seen as it is out of stock at Co-Op now they won't, we were too slow :-(

Patiently waiting for the ks7000 to drop, cheapest around £900, maybe hit £700 this side of Christmas?

The eBay email took me to these T&Cs which mention 100 points as an example of an offer but not specifically this offer. I think there is no max... hopefully!
http://pages.ebay.co.uk/nectar-rewards/bonusfull-tncs.html

Thanks for the reply. I went for the £279 AO offer in the end, so the nectar points were not important.

Is this a crap tv even though it's 4k? Motion blur, judder etc?

Should I get a nice spec Samsung 5100?

This was a really good deal IMO . I favour Samsung and lg sets they have the best smart functionality, are normally very well made and reliable and offer best bang for buck in my experience.

I would have done but their on line chat wasn't working (from a PC and a Tablet so likely their end) and by the time I got through on the phone they refused to honour the price match as Co-Op had gone out of stock 3 minutes earlier.

Not very happy and they won't be getting any business from me.

Na not got one, but read there was motion blur and a lot of "greying" when viewed at slight angles.

So considering I am not going to get a ps4 Scorpio or the new xbox I think I would rather invest in a 1080p that shows a much better picture and colours than just getting 4k for the sake of it.

If it is this low priced there must be something bad about it. Seems too good to be true.

got it for 279 at AO.com telephone jobby. - lets hope it fits be bedroom cabinet. 91.8CM x 60CM with stand

have just been told they made a mistake matching eBay????

SO ? i take it your one of the few who didn't get any TV Cheddar

Not true in the slightest. I have the larger version of this in my lounge, and there is no motion judder, greying or any other issues I can think of. Really good picture quality in my opinion, both with TV and PS4/Xbox one.

No the custom system isn't compatible with Kodi, cheapest option is to buy a amazon fire tv stick which you can load Kodi onto using a computer, as long as you don't go for a massive build.

Just been to richer sounds.. the tv looked very small ..ended up buying a bigger lg one for £20 more still 6 year guarantee on it.. think the spec was the same too..

​??? There was no need for that. I already got one if you scroll up :laughing: I did want to buy another as a gift and was told this but im still getting my slice thank you very much.

to an extent I understand what you are saying, but , I'm not expecting an all singing and dancing 4k tv, it's solely for use on my son's xbox one s

me 2

What's the deal with samsung and smart functions now? Have one myself from couple years ago and is fine, but reading some reviews on John Lewis Etc. people are saying the tizen ones don't have iplayer/4od/itv

Definitely has iplayer and Itv hub. No all4 currently.

bought today

Now being sold for £299 at Tesco :smiley:

​Thanks for the info, hopefully John Lewis will price match

Oos at Tesco now

Boo many thanks

​Boo

live on tesco, just bought one..​
edit: again oos, I think they are releasing stock slowly..

plenty of stock at my local tesco . newport

got this TV, anyone notice every 15 or 30 minutes so the picture slows down for half a second, like the processor can't keep up? I've turned off motion smoothing and such..

​I think I have but not 100% sure. as it was on streaming content not live tv

hi everyone, so finally got my TV and just opened it an hour ago. I'm wanting to sell it as I am finding it hard to adjust to a smaller TV. I originally had a 46 inch but thought of downgrading as I felt the distance we view the TV from wasnt right but turns out the 40 inch seems small. I bought it from John Lewis so it comes with 5 years garantee. I'm not sure if I can return it back to them as I've assembled it already, will call and find out but if anyone here wants it, TV needs to be picked up from London. I might be able to deliver locally for an extra charge. TV is for £299

​I use Ebay and have a 100% rating of it makes you feel any better, not selling through them as they charge a fee etc

spock
