I've just bought the tv and received it today, have you noticed a high pitched sound coming from the back of the tv?

OK, here's some quick thoughts on this TV.
Set mine up yesterday and goodness is it huge compared to my old 40" Samsung. My sofa is about 3 meters away from the tv and I am now in cinematic heaven. As mentioned by gtom899, there are some tiny annoyances..
* Mainly just from the built-in software, so not a problem if you use andoid, apple or fire tv.
* The patchy light bleed is only noticeable if you watch in the dark.
* The built in speakers are bad, no bother if you have a receiver.
One thing I did worry about was jerky 1080p playback from Kodi using a FireTV stick. Fixed it by disabling the top (surface) hardware acceleration.
Very happy so far with the purchase, thanks for posting apple21!

Yeah, using the Chromecast the picture quality is really good. The size of the screen is almost distracting at first lol, so it's hard to say, the backlight looks very patchy when the screen is all black, but whilst watching the screen you don't notice this and the overall experience is really amazing.

Thanks, mine's being delivered tomorrow morning, but I will be using an amazon firestick exclusively so most of the above would be eliminated.. Will also be connected to an AV receiver so the built in speakers wont be an issue.
Are you happy with the picture quality?

I think the built-in speakers are a joke - I'm not fussy about audio quality but they were silly bad. The slowness of the UI is as you'd expect, some annoying things like you can't change any picture settings whilst within the build-in YouTube, iPlayer, YouTube apps. Disable the built in motion blur setting because it gives the image a horrible soap opera effect. For some reason the iPlayer app video has strange framerate issues (not a buffering issue) where long panning scenes cause the image to skip constantly, looks very unpleasant.

Purchased this TV and had it all weekend- great although some serious issues that can be overcome

I went for it ,it'a got ARC Hdmi so should be able to use my soundbar with the tv remote. Hope the picture won't be much worse than my 4K 42LG that goes to the bedroom now. Got it for 379 with new account. Thanks OP.

I've got a 55inch I bought on AO a couple of years ago for a bargain price, fantastic TV. The only thing that I can comment on is that the sound is naf - but just pick up a sound bar and it's a fantastic bit of kit for the price.

It's not in the description but I believe this 60" model is available with various wrist straps so you can strap it on and wear it on any occasion. Also water resistant to 10M.

A bit of confusion on the AO website:
"1080p Full HD resolution gives a sharp, clear picture"
"This 60” 1080p Full HD LED TV from Seiki..."
"4K Ultra HD"

Comparing this tv to others within similar price it seems to tick all the boxes, also for those like myself keen for sports/movies the refresh rate is in line with top tvs (120) rather than the basic of most tvs this price (50/60) !!! great deal ! :smile:

Seiki do a fantastic tv for the price. The 55 inch one we have outdid the Samsung Plasma it replaced with ease. Don't be such snobs.
Made in Wales by a Chinese firm.

What's the matter with you man? They've been market leaders for as long as I can remember. I've had my Seiki for years. Best watch I've ever had!

I have a Seiki... The sound of poor (it is connected to a sound system) but the image is brilliant.

Ignore all the comments, my parents have a Seiki and the picture quality is better than my mates Samsung. If you want a 60" TV, look no further than this deal.
