So visited Currys today they have this for £899.99 atm but no stock )-; said next week. Called Richer sounds also no stock mid/late Jan they said. Tried also JL no stock and not sure when. Would not let me buy then and there and put on order (I tried John Lewis, currys and Richer sounds).

i made the plunge about 2 weeks ago and in the end went to curry's store although had a problem with the £30 off code they finally honoured it in store, think i had the last one in the country!!! . Store said someone travelled to Swansea from London for one day before (really!) finally had it with Cable for about £923 so happy.
Now to the TV - out of the box fantastic . A mate bought the LG OLED 65 inch and yes it's an awesome TV but i've got to be honest i couldn't see any difference in the picture quality (don't shout at me!) and the price difference is massive. pound for pound i would recommend this TV.
Connectivity was a breeze and it picked up all my devices immediately. One HDMI cable from the small box to the TV (Love It) Sound is very good for a thin tv. Smart remote is fab. So far nothing negative and i am now able to watch my Local Swansea City being hammered in SUHD!

Anyone else waiting on delivery from Currys?

Purchased the Samsung 55KS7000 from John Lewis and the stutter and motion is truly dreadful on the set I've received, especially when watching ball sports but also just when news presenters and/or actors turn their heads for example. At worst it is every minute or so. After testing various settings, literally 100's of different variations based on recommended settings etc.. it has improved but there is definitely something amiss here. Many people rave about how good the tv is and how blown away they are by the picture quality whilst others seem to have problems. The version I have (found on the back of tv is 03) whereas others have 01 or 02. Can you get a bad batch of TV's?? Has the most recent version been rushed through to meet what is no doubt huge demand for this set after all the superb expert reviews?? Not sure if this has anything to do with it but I'll be seeking a replacement. The dilemma is to risk getting the same model and having similar problems or going for a different model/brand.

Well, I received my new 55KS7000 day before yesterday so thought I'd update for reference.
Electrical discount sent email confirmation on day of purchase advising that I would receive dispatch confirmation and then the courier would contact on the day of dispatch to arrange a delivery slot - All of the above went fine and the delivery guy was very pleasant and helpful - so 10/10 for Electricaldiscount.
So TV clearly new and untampered packaging etc - opened and easy to assemble with the One-connect helping a lot. The picture on SD is good although I'll be looking at some tweaks and the HD pic is tbh - excellent and almost 3dish sometimes!!! I'm very surprised the out of the box pic was so good. My previous spammy remote can be used with he new to (new one in drawer lol) and the Smart Remore is immense...You can tell the TV what to do (never expected that so nice + and the kids love it). The TV looks great and I'm really happy. My visit to the site has been recorded by TCB but has yet to track - Bonus if it does but if not I'm still VERY happy with my new TV :wink:

I got this a couple of weeks ago on the Currys 10% Quidco weekend, if cashback tracks and pays properly then I got mine for around £917.

No regrets though, the TV is amazing. I've seen no issues whatsoever thus far, despite what some people have experienced out of the box.

ok thanks would like to know your user view of the sony looks a really good price for an awesome set

I went with the Sony in the end, set it up yesterday, let me know if there are any questions I can answer for you

£1099 at currys now

looks like prices are going up £1059 at richer sounds now, was hoping it was going to break £900 will have to wait till boxing day now!

Well I've bought one - Been hanging about for ages watching this tv so took the plunge - 881 after ?5.2% t/cashback me hopes...hopefully delivery on Saturday...Oh and now require a wall mount (I know!!!) Any suggestions?

I have, that's why I don't know whether to love you for the price, or hate you for spending £900+...

​I phoned up Currys and the woman said they were out of stock nationwide, and yet to update their stock counter on the websites.

Haha! Get yourself one.

Ordered from Currys for £919 using discount code CE30 with around £15 cashback, so £904. Not bad at all.

got one through quidco. how does it work?how will i get this cashback from them?

I got my TV from Crampton and Moore they were brilliant in there Leeds branch, went into Richer Sounds in Leeds and found them not too helpful, and found Crampton and Moore 5yr warranty is through Domestic and General.

I wish this TV would stop popping up on here. I'm trying so hard to talk myself out of getting one :disappointed:

Also still contemplating hitting buy on one of these. Can't look past Richer Sounds from what I've read with regards warranty.

Am I right in thinking they will price match and beat by a small amount?

Website not working for me?

i have this TV on order at Richer Sounds. Wonder if they'll price match.

there warranty is in house only at Richer Sounds

Been hovering over various "pay now" Paypal buttons for the last week and haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Can anyone vouch for these? Trustpilot gives it 5.9/10 which doesn't fill me with confidence... but I note they're google certified so there's always that to fall back on.

Best non-OLED set available though no doubt. 1000 nits, 10 bit, true HDR and fantastic performance on all levels -other than sound.

I used Pro Signal Pedestal Stand for 32 - 60-Inch LCD TV - from amazon (can't post links here?) on mine., comes with all the bolts you need (I used the medium bolts for the top and smaller size for the bottom as the tv as a slight currve on the back panel).

Really solid and looks good.

Food for thought... https://www.avforums.com/threads/4k-55-sony-kd55xd8005bu-anyone-have-one-any-good.2052275/

Received this a.m..
"Dear xxxxxxxxxx
Welcome to Domestic & General and thank you for choosing us for your led television Protection
Plan. Your documentation is enclosed..."
So that's the warranty - and because its a google accredited store you also get payment protection :wink:

Also, do they refresh their stock availability often? I feel like by the time I make an order, it'll say "In Stock" only to receive a message telling me there's no stock.

Can you buy a stand for this TV as the feet are to far apart for my tv unit.

I would like to know which people think is the better set as I am looking at both as well for the main TV on the wall.

Anyone got any opinions on both sets from an actual use of them

Nice1 pixl8 , got me finger on the trigger for this one , ssssso tempted, kids will have to go without for xmas!!!

on customer service only

Richer Sounds I found not too good

Richer Sounds refused to price match this after I had purchased from them on Saturday!
Stating that they gave a 6 year warranty.

Extra year warranty at Richer for £20 more though?

these are 919 in currys now there's a £30 code went live today cd30 I think, but they had no stock for delivery around Heathrow.

normal stand and it sits on the top

yep thats what I have been looking at Currys tonight, they had one on offer for £80 should be £129 and colour is black and is mainly made of glass.

Sonic Direct to me is just like brick and mortar to me like walking into currys in Bradford.

tried a JL price match and they stated that don't price match online only or online with megastore.

But location should play a part in this as locally we have many retailers locally and most will price match as long as they are in stock and have a similar warranty.

Torn now, have one of these on the way:
http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/sony/bravia-kd55xd8005/sony-kd55xd8005bu
But tempted to return for the Samsung, decisions decisions...

does anyone know who services the 5yr guarantee!?

For £20 more you could go with Richer Sounds, presuming this is the same TV: http://www.richersounds.com/product/tv---all/samsung/ue55ks7000/sams-ue55ks7000

Think so , reviews appear to be good ,also 4.4% quidco bringing it to sub £900.

Are the company reliable?

Wow, what an amazing find. Nice one buffalo!

​No idea, better asking the OP, I was going by the web page.

Advertising a free 5 year warranty too, hope RS and JL price match.
Warmed it up.

However you desperate you are for it, I would only buy from John Lewis and Richer Sounds.

last night sonic direct in there mega store in Bradford had it up at 899.99...

I purchased this from another supplier sunday in a deal, I was sourcing a stand I do have a pick... on there website it was 949.99 over the weekend.

JL & Curry's OOS

One of the best TVs on the market imo
