Hmmmm... Why did I just order a 49" tv for my 5 year olds room....:neutral_face:

You's are my witnesses, my wife mumbled that I should get it in her sleep...

Picked up 2 of these from my local super store, they had quite a few and they didn't seem to be any big rush for them. Have installed one and my initial thoughts are - my last used 20 years ago aerial doesn't seem to be working so no Freeview. Linked it into my video processor and adjusted the picture, very few options here, for example no ability to change individual colours or hue etc.

It feels light weight and cheap. It is quite a thick unit at the back and doesn’t sit as flush to the wall as my older set, I have about a 10 cm gap now.

The set shows up the difference between my sources far more than my other screens do. My skybox feed looks better than my freesat box. Not sure if this means the set is actually resolving the picture better but in viewing terms…

To me the picture quality looks worse than my old, but well regarded in its day, Hitachi 32" 720p screen and my projector too for that matter, some judder on panning, some halos round people etc (even with sharpness turned to zero) some jagged edges and distortion on spots/lines etc but for £199 I don't think you could expect more. Its all liveable with and better than one should expect for the best picture

Audio sounds pretty good on speech – haven’t listed to music or action films yet

Apps – These look to be heavily biased at Europe and it took me a while to work out where the headline UK apps were, but once I found them they all worked far faster than my Now tv box does, probably because the TV is hardwired to the LAN

The biggest issue I think is the feet, if you are planning to use the feet and a table it needs to be at least a meter wide. The feet are 97cm apart to the outside edges. The other option is to buy a table top mount that uses the VESA mounts on the rear.

Think of it as a bargain priced cheap TV and all in all for £199 I don’t think many people will be disappointed.

Thanks to the OP. Ordered Friday AM delivered Sunday AM!

Set up and working fine. I've upgraded the firmware, they call the new firmware "Netflix Update" but it also has a new iPlayer version with live TV over the internet.

There is a leaflet inside the box to EXTEND the warranty free by 6 months (18 month total) worth doing this now / when you unbox

Pros
- Picture Quality. This is a great LCD panel with back lit LED. Colours are bright and picture / motion is fine. Watched Planet Earth 2 and the expereince was very good.
-Sound. Ok this is a budget TV but the sound on this TV is exceptional at this price point. The speakers are large (indeed they make the screen thicker than you might expect but that's OK for better sound IMHO. As well as decent speakers and amps the unit has DSP processing for virtual surround and supports various audio formats. Amazing! The volume control is well thought out with ballistic control providing a good range of sound control for quiet and loud listening 10/10
- Excellent remote (not a Netflix users but I keep pressing the huge Netflix button by mistake) might be worth waiting until Dec to try the free one month so you have it over the festive period?
-iPlayer implementation superb defaults to HD which is fine, option to downgrade to lower bit rate if you have a slow / busy internet connection
-WiFi simple to setup and secure 2.4.gHz only but WiFi at this price point is amazing. Works well
-YouTube App some minor bugs (initial stream may stall) works well with Android Phone you tube app TV appears as a casting device, Was able to login to my account on the TV see my subscriptions and push new items onto my queue from the phone. Interface using the remote was also good.
-Miracast works well can push photos etc from phone reasonable and fast implementation
-HDMI full CEC support (disabled by default)
-Simple to use user interface
-TV Tuner (not tested) appears to have USB Storage based PVR
-Vesa 200 x 200 and 11kg so simple to install and lift. I ordered this stand (302043368020) but overkill but it has scope to holder larger / heavier screens, Don't need the pull out feature for watching but it makes cleaning the vents, installing new devices simpler.



Cons (both really minor - its me knitpicking)
Slight light bleed on high brightness to be fair you'd only turn up the brightness to these high levels in daylight also when a picture is displayed on the screen there is ZERO bleed visible this is not a problem with the TV all low end TV and some mid range units have uneven backlighting. If you watch very dark images late at night or in a darkened room on ANY LCD TV you will see the backlights. Only emissive display technology eliminates this this is NOT a problem with this TV but all on emissive TV (e.g. all LCD tvs) at high brightness there is a small amount of panel bleed and on mine there is a very slight dark spot on the bottom right corner. Again hard to notice and certainly not worth returning the unit. I've seen far was worse on the edge lit TV costing much more! If this is an issue set the TV up to Movie mode and adjust / calibrate to minimise the impact. This should not stop you buying this TV as its a by product of the backlighting system in use.
There is very minor light spilling out of the rear of the unit again not a problem and expected on these lower end models
-Some complex features like CEC turned off by default probably to reduce tech support calls from folk who might not need this. Those who do can turn it on.

It's also £115 more...

Mine seems to be broken. Turns on says 'sharp' ten turns off, turns on by itself again says sharp and turns off again. Repeats over and over and won't load. Can't do anything with remote. Have taken plugs out and in again. Any ideas before I contact manufacturer?
Thanks

That wasn't the only issue with the tv. It would also refuse to turn on from standby with pulling out the power plug and re-inserting it in. I would get a refund if I could get something similar for about the same price.

Have you tired the same HDMI cable and source with both TVs just to be sure. Its possible the fault you describe is inte the upstream leg (Sat->Tuner>HDMI) ? Also worth factory resetting the Sharp TV.. Just a thought, something to try when you are waiting for Tesco to comeback.

Using Sky Sat. No such fault on the other TV watching same channels. I've sent video of the fault to Tesco

What source are you using? TV / SAT / BluRay / iPlayer / YouTube
Is it the same problem on all sources? Might be worth doing a factory reset / retune just in case.

Mine has developed a faulty screen, and onscreen movement causes jagged edges.

With remote (Revision 10) and a Sky Q box I get full functions with code 4170.

Sorry to hear about the way you are being treated. I had some issues like this after the first firmware update (not has frequent as yours) a couple of points

1) If you are use the TV on the network (wired or WiFi) refrain from pressing any buttons until the initialising message has gone. Its a spinning circle on the top right. I can get my set to crash if I try and access YouTube while its booting.

2) I found most of the issue I had went away if I went into settings and did a factory reset. I had to do this AFTER each firmware update.

3) Before powering off the TV make sure you stop playback and close YouTube / iplayer etc.

Some questions / suggestions about your setup

1) Did the problem just happen out of the blue or did the set never work?
2) Is the set near any heating or electrical equipment - if its on an extension lead try plugging it direct to a wall socket. just to see if that helps.
3) If you have devices connected to the TV unplug them all (Physically remove the connections to the TV) then see if the problems occur e.g. TV only with internet, TV with Aerial, TV with SAT Rec, TV with Game console
4) Make sure NOTHING is plugged into the USB ports (I've an LG set - High end and it crashes all the time if I have a USB HD plugged in!) the power used by the drive is from the same 5+V rail that powers the "SMART TV" board technically its called a PC-Card the other mains boards in the TV are T-CON (timing controller for the LED) and Tuner boards.
5) I assume you are turning off the TV at the mains for at least 30s after each crash as a warm reboot is not the same a cold restart.?

I've yet to find a good "SMART TV" I've a few and the best ones are the "DUMB" TVs like my KURO. I have every TV in the house connected to a Orange Pi / Rasberry Pi with onboard network tuners / NAS this is so much better than the "smart" TVs I've seen and the Set Top boxes offered by Virgin. Sky is ok but their boxes are costly / restrictive. Even top end brands put really cheap tuners in their sets, so recommend an external tuner like Humax.

But they are offering you a refund. If it was currys they would have offered you naff all.

Well we bought this TV at the Tesco sale price and it resets itself 3-4 times an hour. Goes off completely then reboots. Tried two firmware updates with no success. Contacted Tesco who told us to contact UMC who own sharp or manufacture the sets. After a pretty condescending phone operative conversation we were told to take back to Tesco for a refund. Told them we didn't want a refund as it was in a sale and they had no more stock and that we wouldn't be able to get a similar set for the money alls we got from both Tesco and Sharp/UMC was tough. The warranty is nonsense. They will not repair the TV due to it being over 43" so anyone have any future problems don't expect a repair or replace. The best you will get is a refund. Which isn't going to buy you a TV of the same size/spec. Couldn't believe what we were hearing. Totally disgusted. Tried everything, emailing, calling, managers, tweets neither Tesco or Sharp/UMC would budge. Its over 43" so we won't even come out and look at it. Refund is the best you will get. RIDICULOUS!!!!

Cheers

Any Vesa compliant VESA 200 x 200 (mm) wall mount that can take a 15kg load will be fine (TV is 11KG according to the specs if not base stand used). You might want to add some hardware to the TV (Roku, Amazon stick, Chromecast, Apple TV) but these are normally tiny.

I checked the Vesa specification in the manual Page 10 covers view angle for wall mount, page 38 state the VESA 200 x 200 (mm) for the 49CFG6001K model. The manual I used is here http://www.umc-uk.co.uk/instruction-manuals/Sharp/6001K/Sharp%20-%20User%20Guide%20-%20SHA-MAN-0178-%20SmartTV%20-%2060%20models%20v5.pdf ).Ideally you need a solid wall if you full control over position. If you have a stud wall you can mount the stand on the beams or get special fixing for plaster/b The stand I select had a lot of control for motion and could be pulled out for viewing to almost any angle.There are thinner, simpler stands for a lot less. I paid £15 for mine but the price had gone up. I also purchased a mount that could take a larger set, so when I replace the TV the stand can stay. I also chose a stand with the mountings I need for masonry - The fixing can cost more than the stand so its worth thinking about your needs now and in the future.For cabling I will drill a hole behind the TV and run power / sat. / ethernet / HDMI next time wiring work is planned. For the time being I have no TV cable in the room but the unit has iPlayer and WiFi which works fine even on HD. I have the power cable running behind a radiator so its not too visible. I've hidden a thin HDMI cable behind the power cable so it looks like only one wire goes to the set. This will do until summer when building work is planned. The HDMI goes to an Orange Pi that runs Kodi and use network over mains to get a TV signal from a remote Server (Rasberry Pi with a £3 USB TB tuner) works perfectly for now with no local TV areal connection. I got some radio remote for the Kodi (£4) as the unit is in a conservatory and IR remote don't work too well in bright sun

Hope this helps what sort of stand / set up were you looking at?.There are plenty of options and price points.

Any joy with a wall mount for this
I clicked on a link here but it's expired

Thanks will have a look. Never thought about attaching it to the wall Duh good idea

Loads of stands you can get, just make sure it uses the right vesa dimensions.
Having said that, also have a 4yr old but stand seems steady enough. Should really use a wall plug to attach it to the wall though.

Anyone know if there's another stand you can buy for this?. Stand doesn't look that safe when you have a 4yr

You need to update the TV, you should find an option to update in the settings somewhere.

Where do you find the U.K. Headline apps? Netflix button does not work, in fact the apps are rubbish

thanks for the info. I'm currently running v2.05 2016-11-29 20:40:22. The last freeview issue happened about 3 days ago. When I checked the signal strength it was jumping about all over the place, but interestingly after re-tunning the signal strength and quality were fine again. I've checked and there is no maintenance on my transmitter (I'm in Inverness). Wifi is fine today.
I've turned off Standby scanning as you suggested.

Was it due to the firmware updates? There have been 2 updates in the last month (reported in this thread one withing days of black friday and one a couple of weeks after black Friday. If its not the firmware updates it might be channels on low power for maintenance (need your post code to check transponders or have a look hear to see if that the cause: https://ukfree.tv/extras/BBC_Engineeering

Have you got standby scanning on? This looks for new channels when the TV is off) the default is off, might be worth turning this option off in case that's the cause?

My freeview has lost some of it's channels twice now - had to retune it. The wifi has also got lost a couple of times - usually switching it off and on a few times fixes it. Playing videos via my attached hard drive is fine - plays all my file types (avi, mkv etc).

I noticed the streaming client does not handle errors in the network etc. Youtube is fast once it has loaded. I've not used the commercial Youtube app before. Orignally I was going to buy a Rasberry Pi or Orange Pi and install LibreElec just for the streaming (MKV) and the Ad Free Youtube plus FreeSAT and Freeview (I've another Rasberry Pi in the house with USB tuners so can stream the SAT / Areal feeds including HD) but the TV works nicely with the built in Wifi and software. Might delay my purchase of Rasberry Pi until I see a good deal.

To be fair most TVs have really poor streaming and the codec support is patchy, likely due to patent licencing issues. That said this unit is DTS/AC3 licences but that might be a chipset level implementation, part of the sound system ie decoder + amplifer combo circuit board.

Why not give plex a try, having used both, I think it's vastly superior.

i have this tv got it in the sale. picture is fine and sound is ok too. youtube and iplayer apps runs very fast. format support from streaming is limited it cant play mkv files from my serviio server. will need to test out more but for the money its a fantastic deal.

Oh thanks. I've got some of the TV's listed and there recommendations are a bit off the mark. As I said there is no best setting as you need at LEAST a day (high ambient light) and a night setting IMHO. I think the default presets are great just flick through the settings (Personal, Movie etc) if it asks leave HOME MODE says yes this is just the default power saving. The changes to settings are normal transient (do not survive a restart, unless you edit a profile or use service menu - Not recommend unless you are 100% sure of what this means)

I'm impressed with the default presets settings, as I said try the different sound modes too (the sound and picture menu) just trying the different factory presets might be a safe options for you?

Absolute bargain used a USB and it played everything with no worries , it's little things that I'm so impressed with like auto play next video file etc

Only down points is aquos apps rubbish no 4od etc but I have a firestick so no worries

Plus lack of more settings but I have left everything default as I'm very happy

Thanks for all your help, but I was more interested in preset settings as I don't want to make it worse by myself. I was looking for something like this http://www.hotukdeals.com/visit?t=2544332&hukdm=2467&d=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.which.co.uk%2Freviews%2Ftelevisions%2Farticle%2Fgetting-the-best-tv-picture

If you are using the built in tuner via an aerel, then select cinema mode. Try the different sound modes to see which one you like. I set the brightness up for daytime viewing (This is stored on my set on the personal setting) and for night time I have brightness turned down (This is stored on as my movie profile). For sound I have the virtual sound etc all turned off.

http://www.heronfidelity.com/blog/tv-picture-setup-guide.html

There is a nice video on that page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2kfFFwxSWo

If you have deviced connected to the TV its worth using an HDMI cable these can be had on ebay for under £1. I'd really advise avoiding SCART and RCA Video connections for the best picture quality. Let me know how you get on I'm in the processing calibrating setting mine up so happy to share specific settings that work for me if that's helpful. Once you have setup the TV and sources there are other options you can use to make things simpler (eg. disable inputs that you do no use etc)

The TV has an onboard DNLA client so can stream media from a range of source plus Miracast (for streaming content from phones. The Youtube software is very good for a smart TV. If you are interested you can use a Rasberry Pi with LibreElec for Youtube as this strips out the adverts worthwhile if there is a lot of Youtube watching!

Let me know how you get on there are other guides too all aimed at different levels of reader e.g. https://www.engadget.com/2010/12/30/how-to-connect-and-set-up-your-new-hdtv-all-the-cables-conten/

Ok didn't know it was that advanced. I use it in my living room with light coming in from the window. I was just hoping for a generic settings improvement, they provide this service on the Which website but not for this model it seems. Just really looking to see if i can change any settings to improve picture quality e.g. adjusting the contrast or brightness,

Agreed the sound on the set is also MUCH better than you'd expect on such a low cost unit. If you just got your set it might be worth signing up for the free additional 6m warranty, you need to retain the box and packaging for the warantee.

Yes I noticed with the update from last week (lets call it Netflix +1) I get a Wifi signal icon on the TV's info bar and the I no longer get the dual spinning initialising wheel on start up as the TV logs into Wifi. No other changes I've noticed.

What do you mean best? Best Picture Quality -well that depends on source and lighting? Best economy that's easy ECO mode with min brightness. There are important factors to consider, if you provide some insight into where you are using the set an the ambient lighting that might help. To be clear there is no one setting for a perfect set up. I have presets for daytime and evening viewing. Drop the light output in the evening. There are options for sharpness etc but these really need to be aligned with your TV picture source. Again some of these setting have no impact if you are watching on line content.

Lighting
1) Are you using the set in direct sunlight
2) Are you using the set at night with room lighting
3) Are you using the set in darkness for an AV room / Cinema room

The you need to consider your sources
1) For the best picture link a up an external tuner, though the on board tuner is fine for most uses
2) Have you set up the Wifi / Ethernet and tried the iPlayer and Youtube apps? (Worth linking your you tube app to a Google account so you can add subscriptions (these can be free or paid)
3) Games consoles etc

Audio
1) Surprisingly this TV has really good sound. For the best sound use an external AV Amp and speakers (studio active would be my recommendation- no need for fancy brands or special cable stock microphone cable is fine and a sub if you budget can stretch a good value brand like BK Electronics is fine)
2) Headphones this TV has headphone out the entry level sets are fine or again if you want the higher end AV wireless headsets are good, get closed cans for bedroom use without disturbing others.

A newer update.

Anyone got any links to the best picture settings for this TV? Having had a search on Google for over an hour unable to find any. not even on the Which website.

I know this has passed but just wanted to let anyone who was looking to buy this know that I got this honoured at £199 by tesco last week due to various issues ordering over Black Friday

I must say I am very impressed with this set , haven't touched settings and picture is very good in my humble opinion , minimal light bleed for me , plus good set of features and ports , for the money this product is great

Is that the Netflix update? Or a newer one

Just received software update, no log, just improvements it says.

as above, don't forget to register your new TV. here's a direct linky:

for 6 months extended guarantee

Just opened and tested, and it's knackered

Flicking from stand by to blue screen

Awaiting replacement!!!

In case anyone is looking. The sky remote code for (rev 10) is 2134 These remotes are not the wireless version so work with sky :smiley:

Just extended my warranty free by 6 months, was mailed a link to the PDF of the new warranty.
When you sign up click the NO THANKS text on the bottom right of the page. The 2 obvious selections require payments, seems like UMC are trying to upsell their customers to a rolling warranty. I just went for the free 6 month extension. If you purchased from Tesco on Black Friday you only have 2 weeks from date of purchase to sign up for the free warranty extension Keep the box / packaging as it is a RTB warranty..

Sounds like a reasonable question to me. How are your speakers connected to the TV? Are you using the headphone socket 3.5mm? Look at the Audio setup (Its called Sound I think and there might be an option to disable TV output.) The headphone socket should automatically disable the TV sound.

Are you using an external source to drive the TV eg, a Humax FreeSAT unit ./ Sky TV / Virgin Cable box? Is so you can just set the TV volume to zero and use the Audio out on the set top box.

Thanks works perfectly now. I turned off the blue screen so the screen is black this make bleed very clear. Loosened the screws around the top and side where I had the most bleed. All fine, re-tightened slightly still fine. Rechecked this morning in daylight ZERO bleed in daylight even on a full black screen. At night there is very minor irregular backlight but this is only visible on a totally black screen with no image, so not a fair tested. Watched some HD video and the screen looks perfect. Many thanks for the bleed fix and to the OP for a great deal.

Hi, this might be a stupid question.... How do I turn off the built in tv speakers? im trying to use my sonos sound bar.... having difficulties...

Yes. It was the two nearest to the centre of the bottom panel which was causing mine. Been spot on since.

Yeah I had light bleed in the top left corner and loosened the screw, I let the frame sort itself out after 2 days the light bleed was gone. Perfect picture now.

Oh thank for that! The screw on the rear of the TV near the edge I suppose? Mine is on a pull out wall mounted stand so it should be simple.

Yeah this one was nearly sent back as the bleed in the bottom centre was really getting on my nerves. Quick loosen and prising the bezel away slightly and it disappeared completely. Thanks for the heads up with the warranty too.

The serial number is also on the box to save you taking it back off the wall :smiley:

"cant get WiFi to work" - more details needed.

If you're using WEP (you shouldnt be), it may be that the TV doesnt support it (it shouldnt)

Theres an adaptive brightness/contrast option, it might be enabled.

I'm going to try the fix for light bleed by loosening some of the screws on the frame. The suggestion that the fame is over tightened and is warping the panel sounds spot on there is no reason for this level of bleed on a high quality LG panel. I think the torque setting on the driver in the factory was too high.

The warranty for 12m RTB and the free optional extension taking the warranty to 18m is via UMC the set manufacturer. I thought all electrical items had to have a 2 year warranty under EU regulations or 6 under the sale of goods act scanning this article it suggest the RETAILER is liable? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/money-saving-tips/11296784/Shops-accused-of-denying-six-year-warranty-right.html

Is the Warranty extended through Tescos or Sharp itself?? Time to google the links methinks.

A bit of light bleed on my set too but nothing serious. Updated the firmware and Netflix works but YouTube just hangs? Anyone with same issue?

What settings work best for you? I've turned most options off or down.

Quick reminder for folks who purchased the TV the warranty is not in home but requires one to return it to the manufacturer so you must keep the box and packaging. You can also extend the warranty for free by 6 months to 18 months via on line registration within 14 days of purchase so that's ONE WEEK away for most folk. You need the serial number of the TV to register apparently on the rear of the TV mine is up on the wall!

Its the Amazon Fire TV box with the Kodi instal I use so it's straight into the Hdmi port as it's powered by a mains adaptor. Working really well. It's a shame that there's no access to the standard playstore so it could be added as an app but the external kodi supported boxes and sticks are cheap enough. I've also enabled auto standby in the Cec menu so it turns the box off when I turn the tv off. To turn it on I just select the source as hdmi and it switches the amazon box on.

Thanks for the tips will try that out. Are you running the Kodi Box off the TV's USB? I have a spare Orange Pi might try the TV for USB.

£329 now

Had a slight issue with light bleed right in the middle of the lower part of the screen which was driving me nuts on dark scenes. Loosened the screws from the rear of the set and slightly prised away the bezel and it disappeared. Seemed like it was putting a bit of pressure on the screen itself causing it. Nice that it's CEC capable so enabled it in the menu and it controls my Amazon fire TV from the remote. (The exit button is the back button on Kodi if anyone's using it)

Excellent! I will order mine now - many thanks and happy viewing :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes, mine arrived (my one, to NI, not the in-laws one). Have used HDMI (Kodi box), iPlayer, Miracast of phone & YouTube - very impressed! No backlight issues for me (I would be irked by them if bad, but not go looking).

My volume was set to stun (about mid 20s) - very quickly reduced it to under 10!

The shipped feet are very far apart (97cm between the outer sides) they would be better narrower (both for looks & the range of suitable stands). I doubt that putting them 20 or 30cm closer would affect stability too much.

The amazon legs I pointed to arrived yesterday (ordered at weekend, posted Monday arrived Wednesday). Been in use since yesterday with no complaints.

Impressed with it so far, picture quality very good, saw in the service menu it's an LG panel, so maybe that explains that and can't can't say I've noticed much (if any above normal) light bleed. Verdicts out on Aqueous Net, but I already have android boxes, so it's something new to play with! All in all, very good, thanks again OP

I'm very pleased with picture quality compaired to my 5 year old Samsung! I updated the Netflix ok but can't get WiFi to work?? I also noticed this morning that brightness was going up and down slightly on its own! Anyone else any problems?

I will say this about the TV, the light bleed is significant, it's not really good enough IMO as a living room TV, more suited to a bedroom or guest room.

For £200 though, wow.

I went to the hotel mode menu, and simply disabled everything apart from HDMI 3 (which my roku is plugged into).

Not that I want to, but you cannot disable the Freeview tuner as far as I can tell.

​back in stock!

How did the refund/replacement/compensation go? I'm in same boat.

Its worth noting that non Microsoft r/w on NTFS and ExFAT is risky. If you have existing recordings any writes to the device can potentially corrupt the drive so back up. USB flash / SD is not a good solution for TV recording. Cheap HD are better. To format large drive FAT32 there are utilities eg

http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htmor SSD via USB

Which options did you use to do this I'm wanting to do something similar. Also any other options of interest found when you used the service menu?

Mine got delivered today (NI) .. Yodel did not make any mistake :smile: set it up with no issues.. With an LG sound bar attached to it, it's amazing to say the least..

This worked perfectly, I now only have Freeview and HDMI 3 sources, thank you!

Has anybody bought and successfully used a different stand or legs on this TV??:neutral_face:

Such a shame as they seem like a lot of TV for the money. I'm still debating if I can live with the light bleed. Failing that I'll just try and make sure I only watch light programmes :smiley:

​no all sold out as you'd expect very small chance they'll have any more back in stock )-:

Nope, it was awaiting to be collected from store, simply went to click and collect and then straight to refund

Did you not take your order email in with you, showing the reduced price paid?

Got mine delivered yesterday, checked once got home from work and all set up with no problems and also did update.

Guess I better check ours before Crimbo.....

... On a plus point, took the Roku Stick back for a refund and they gave me the full whack back, so a free tenner for me

​​

push bottons on RC........MENU,1,1,4,7
push bottons on RC........SOURCE,2,5,8,0


I got the setup one to work no luck with the sources. Setup menu had hotel mode, can set the start-up settings.

got mine yesterday, great bit of tech for the money

I would push for compensation for the day off work to take delivery of faulty products! This may mean that they find a replacement! Or ask that they check local stores?

No chance that you could get a replacement? Shame as for the price they're a good enough TV. Bit of light bleed on mine on dark scenes but my Sony is a lot worse.

unfortunately mine has a 3 inch band vertically down the screen having to return for refund

Ha I see thanks. Had me worried then. I'm undecided what to do with mine (stand or wall mounted) decisions decisions :innocent:

Does anyone know how to activate the service menu on this TV? I want to remove some of the sources from the sources menu :/

Yes it does, but some folk want to put this on surfaces narrower than the original legs are spaced, so have purchased aftermarket stands and legs for wall / narrow desk mounting.

The orginal lets provided with the set are spaced wide for improved stability there is also a tether on the rear to fix to the wall to prevent the unit from toppling forward.

Does this not come with legs? Haven't opened mine yet

"Currently in-laws have 1 foot attached & other side supported by a book/catalogue (I haven't seen it, but this was my suggestion)" and me!!! I will look at the options you suggested, many thanks for you prompt reply <3

See this post: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/sharp-lc-49cfg6001k-smart-full-hd-49-inch-led-tv-with-freeview-hd-finally-199-tesco-2556586?p=29295907

I must add that the legs ordered have not yet arrived (ordered late Friday & posted Monday); Amazon item B01I3JOCF8 £16. Also look at ebay item 291817129342; £14.03 + 99p postage. Again, I have not used either, but both were top of my list.

Currently in-laws have 1 foot attached & other side supported by a book/catalogue (I haven't seen it, but this was my suggestion).

EDIT: as for wall mounting, not sure, but I wouldn't have thought a wall mount would be out of the question - I know when my cousin rented out his house, the tenant nailed dozens of pictures to the wall & he said he couldn't charge them because it wasn't structural. Obviously check this out don't go on my recollection from 20 years ago.

I too made that mistake! TV has arrived and it is fabuloso so I want to keep it but can't wall mount it as landlord says no.....What legs would I need please? Or stand? Or can I get a central swivel plinth like all my other TV's?? HELP!!

So can you watch Amazon Prime Video on this (without fire stick)?

Happy days just got both of mine :smiley:

Could someone please test if the TV can read USB's formatted with exFat.

I have two usb's one USB 2.0 formatted with Fat32, and one USB 3 formatted with exFat. All is well with the Fat32 drive - I can record/pause etc. I can watch videos etc.

But my other stick has movies, videos already stored - it's 64Gb in size but formatted using exFat so I can use files bigger than 4Gb. But I've tried this in both slots and the TV cannot "see" it.

Thanks.

​Thanks. I definitely need to wait for a good deal on a Philips Smart TV. They are Android

My one was dispatched today (the one actually for me that was ordered before the one for the in-laws).

With regards to the issues I had, they were Yodel (box clearly labelled for home delivery).

Mine has light bleed in the top left hand corner. Apart from that, I'm very happy... but it's only been an hour.

Unclear this is a UMC made unit. However it does say AQUOS NET+ and run apps on there but there is no Google Playstore etc and its is definitely not Google branded / certified. I know the LG sets are WebOS, Panasonic Firefox, etc and Sharp used to be Andriod. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_smart_TV_platforms_and_middleware_software

This is back in stock.

How do you get "Not a good quality TV" from "...opened the box and discovered the screen was cracked" ?

I opened it up after seeing the cracked one, but thankfully it seems to be all good, did the Netflix update, only took 5 minutes, seems to be all good.

​It's possible to crack the screen of a £3000 TV too you know.?

Can anyone who bought this TV tell me if the Smart TV platform is Android?

Not a good quality TV, when we opened the box and discovered the screen was cracked. :disappointed: very disappointed :disappointed:

Some wee ned delivered mine, didn't ask me to sign anything, he literally shouted here's yer TV and ran away as soon as I opened the door...:laughing:

lovely, soo basically Yodel messed up on Saturday and my tv was suppose to come today instead checked my tracking as i been waiting for it all day, its still stuck on same message, messaged them through live chat and they said it has been delayed. They are actually the worst company ever will honestly never use them again and probably cancel my orders if i see it being used. Guess its also karma that i made a complaint on saturday..

Great thanks.

Yes I just went into settings (once the TV was on the network) and under firmware there are options for online update or USB I opted for the first. There server is slow so the download took just under 5 mins and then the update took another 5. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT TURN OFF THE TV DURING the update. I had on issue 3 hours after the update the screen said on even after I press power off (the LED said blue) I think it was just a glitch after the firmware update as it was the fist time I'd switched it off. After the update TV reboot (softboot) so make sure you are not recording anything etc! After the update I'd check things are still working and then power off the set, then remove the power just once to ensure a hard reset.

Is this easy to do, as want to do this when ours finally turns up, thanks

Thanks to the OP. Ordered Friday AM delivered Sunday AM!

Set up and working fine. I've upgraded the firmware, they call the new firmware "Netflix Update" but it also has a new iPlayer version with live TV over the internet.

There is a leaflet inside the box to EXTEND the warranty free by 6 months (18 month total) worth doing this now / when you unbox

Pros
- Picture Quality. This is a great LCD panel with back lit LED. Colours are bright and picture / motion is fine. Watched Planet Earth 2 and the expereince was very good.
-Sound. Ok this is a budget TV but the sound on this TV is exceptional at this price point. The speakers are large (indeed they make the screen thicker than you might expect but that's OK for better sound IMHO. As well as decent speakers and amps the unit has DSP processing for virtual surround and supports various audio formats. Amazing! The volume control is well thought out with ballistic control providing a good range of sound control for quiet and loud listening 10/10
- Excellent remote (not a Netflix users but I keep pressing the huge Netflix button by mistake) might be worth waiting until Dec to try the free one month so you have it over the festive period?
-iPlayer implementation superb defaults to HD which is fine, option to downgrade to lower bit rate if you have a slow / busy internet connection
-WiFi simple to setup and secure 2.4.gHz only but WiFi at this price point is amazing. Works well
-YouTube App some minor bugs (initial stream may stall) works well with Android Phone you tube app TV appears as a casting device, Was able to login to my account on the TV see my subscriptions and push new items onto my queue from the phone. Interface using the remote was also good.
-Miracast works well can push photos etc from phone reasonable and fast implementation
-HDMI full CEC support (disabled by default)
-Simple to use user interface
-TV Tuner (not tested) appears to have USB Storage based PVR
-Vesa 200 x 200 and 11kg so simple to install and lift. I ordered this stand (302043368020) but overkill but it has scope to holder larger / heavier screens, Don't need the pull out feature for watching but it makes cleaning the vents, installing new devices simpler.



Cons (both really minor - its me knitpicking)
Slight light bleed on high brightness to be fair you'd only turn up the brightness to these high levels in daylight also when a picture is displayed on the screen there is ZERO bleed visible this is not a problem with the TV all low end TV and some mid range units have uneven backlighting. If you watch very dark images late at night or in a darkened room on ANY LCD TV you will see the backlights. Only emissive display technology eliminates this this is NOT a problem with this TV but all on emissive TV (e.g. all LCD tvs) at high brightness there is a small amount of panel bleed and on mine there is a very slight dark spot on the bottom right corner. Again hard to notice and certainly not worth returning the unit. I've seen far was worse on the edge lit TV costing much more! If this is an issue set the TV up to Movie mode and adjust / calibrate to minimise the impact. This should not stop you buying this TV as its a by product of the backlighting system in use.
There is very minor light spilling out of the rear of the unit again not a problem and expected on these lower end models
-Some complex features like CEC turned off by default probably to reduce tech support calls from folk who might not need this. Those who do can turn it on.

One of the reviews on tescos website mentions the same light bleeding issue with their TV set :disappointed:

​Very useful thanks. I suggest you look up screen bleeding

I think the answer is.............dont press on the screen.

No mine doesn't have that

Friday morning

People who got theirs can you please tell me if yours has got in the corners kinda white patches you get when you press on the screen? Thanks I think it's called screen bleeding

Ordered early Friday morning, delivered today, Xmas present so not gonna be opening it up.​

there's still a few left as of now

Mine still hasn't been dispatched but it did say from now till Wednesday so fingers crossed

When did you order?

Mine has been delivered today
Happy at the moment

​Perhaps if you weren't ranting to the customer service employees telling them they're awful, they'd be more cooperative.

Just had ours delivered, wasn't expecting Sunday Delivery

Won't be opened until Crimbo, but just read a comment on another feed, that after the update, the TV died - hopefully that was possibly due to it being started up straight after being delivered from the cold...ours will have a month of secretly stored room temp

No, UK mainland. Still showing as processsing. I'm pretty sure at this stage TESCO can cancel the order? I'll be worried if not dispatched by tomorrow!

thanks jnm21, it will be a trip to argos in the morning for a new table i'm afraid :laughing:

Ordered mine 9am yesterday morning, but order still says 'to be dispatched' hope it goes through as the other item I ordered at the same time has already been dispatched.

yeah thank you, it was always going on the wall, wasn't really wanting one that size, but daughter will get a shock when she sees her new bedroom and shes got her own cinema from her bed!

TBH, I was surprise how quick the tv was out for delivering though, ordered Thursday night, dispatched Friday and was attempted delivery Saturday. I just wait until Monday then, it's just annoying when I could of had a play around with the new tv all weekend. Never mind! Let's hope YODEL don't mess it about again

I strongly doubt that it will be Sunday - Yodel call centre at one stage told me it would be delivered Monday. That said I would have lost money on betting a free delivery Black Friday purchase would even be dispatched same day. let alone be 'delivered' Saturday!

Guy at tesco wanted to order me a replacement - he could not believe that it could be out so quick either! Just think where it is going - need a 23 cm surface 97cm apart for the feet (not sure how wide each foot is). Wall mounting should be more straight forward.

Well I can point you to a £10 piece of black shelving in B&Q as a temp option (24cm by 118cm IIRC) - would sit across the stand & TV sit on it. Otherwise it is some legs (£16 on Amazon) or a stand as low as £15 on ebay, both of which fit the VESA mounts on the TV. Failing that a new TV table.

Do you happen to be 'highlands or islands'? I ordered mine about 2am on 25th to NI - not dispatched. Ordered in-laws about an hour later, now received as above in Yorkshire.

I have ordered it on 24th at 12am

Ordered 2pm 25/11/16 still not dispatched.

Mine just delivered super quick

Glad to hear you got it sorted. Mine arrived ok but I never considered the size of my tv stand when ordering :laughing:

Well, what can I say? All is well that ends well perhaps!

I was 'lucky' to talk to several helpful folk; Adil at Tesco Direct (very helpful, called me back repeatedly as promised), Meagan the helpful South African girl at Yodel, the nice Scottish girl at Tesco's contact centre & Janice at Yodel in Selby who also called me back as promised (thanks to saynoto0870.com; http://www.saynoto0870.com/companysearch.php).

I still don't know if the parcel was addressed wrong (Tesco fault) or delivered wrong (Yodel fault).

I am happy to confirm that my in-laws have now picked up the TV from their local Tesco. I'm going to take 2 paracetamol & lie down in a darkened room!!!!!

All is well that ends well...

Thanks again OP & ianfromnotts. Hope yours arrived Jorg & good luck tommytse22!

Does anyone know if YODEL deliver on Sundays ? Tesco told me they will either try deliver Sunday if not defo Monday will be with me. I don't really want to waste staying in on Sunday and it won't turn up

ours arrived this morning, by Yodel, no issues with delivery whats so ever. (I know I know we are lucky!) We ordered late Thursday as the Black Friday deals broke on Tesco. Not unpacked the TV as yet, but as long as its working ok it will be fine for us (its for my teenage daughter room) Our delivery also stated Wednesday delivery originally, so am very surprised how quickly it arrived.

Helen

I'm sure there are other companies that are cheaper then YODEL.

...because they are cheap, this drives the cost down and allows us to get what we want.... free delivery.

ordered mine yesterday morning, still not dispatched can anyone tell me how long theirs took to come?

The thing is I didn't even care paying 1p a minute just to have a rant.. however there customer service line closed at 1pm!! So now I'm on the live chat having a rant and complaining to tell them they are awful. Guess what the live chat person is useless as well.. why do people use YODEL..

Back in stock online.... be quick if you want one.

mine has just arrived, they even managed to ring the bell! :confused:

I know EXACTLY how you feel!!! Some good info here: http://www.hotukdeals.com/misc/yodel-contact-number-freephone-1407623

Just checked my tracking and it said failed to delivery and left card, I've had nothing all day and no card, phone Tesco and ask what has happen and they said the same thing I ask who was it being delivered by and it was YODEL.. the worst company ever been up since 8 and tracking said 9.45 attempted delivery disappointed. Shame can't test tv today then I guess.

Big round of applause for Yodel - they delivered it to the local Tesco store!!! They refused it (understandable)! Now looks like it has been returned to Yodel. For a minute, returned to tesco & refund was mentioned, at which I went BICCIES!!! OMG - I thought online shopping was meant to take the stress out of Christmas shopping!!!

:smiley: [yes that is massively rye]

Now 11:40, still not delivered - on phone with Tesco! This is why my heart sinks when I see Yodel!

EDIT: Tesco can't believe it will be out today, while Yodel reckon it has been mis-scanned & has not been delivered (NSS - I told you that), but will be delivered today! Fingers crossed!

Mine now says delivered 10:35 - was not delivered then! Can't get in-laws on phone - arggghhh!

i never noticed it first thing as i was half sleep, will keep an eye on it and see if it drops. i'm guessing i will just be delivery number 55 on his route

edit: saying that as soon as i posted it dropped to 52 :laughing:

Has that number changed?

mines 55 deliveries before it reaches me :disappointed:

Ordered 1 for me, not yet dispatched (NI delivery), then ordered 1 for in-laws, which is out for delivery (Yorkshire).

On Yodel site it says 5 deliveries before yours - anyone know if that is from start of run or in real time?

It now says "Hurry! Stock is low" on the website.

You can give it a try, but it's says the same thing on the 43" Blaupunkt, but when you're about to go to the payment section - it says there is no stock left.

if you go to your order details you should you a button which says track your order. under the flow chart with the van it will say:

Parcel details for Parcel 1: *******************

that is the tracking number you put in the yodel website along with the delivery postcode

Mine says dispatched from Fennylock FC. Anyone know when I'm likely to receive it ? Does it need to go to another courier first

just checked the tracking on yodel and it's out for delivery today apparently :smile:

Got mine and on its way. Used £30 of vouchers so got for £170. A 49 inch tv with built in Wifi and smart for that price you cannot go wrong......kids will be pleased at Xmas

What is the depth without the legs I wanted to wall mount the TV and was looking at stands the photos make the TV look a bit thicker in the central region. How do people find the bezel it looks small. Are all the bezel edges the same thickness around the screen? Its hard to see this clearly in the photos.

Vesa sizes are set by the weight of the unit normally

Cheers.

Now looking at options - ebay item 262682896123 looks like an option at £17 delivered (the item looks better than the engrish in the ad). I note that it only goes up to 400 by 350 (should be fine as this is meant to be VESA 200x200, though I am confused as to why the 48" model uses 400x400 and the 49" uses the much smaller 200x200).

EDIT: Now went for Amazon item B01I3JOCF8. Just 2 legs that attach to the VESA mounts (will do all sizes from 200x200 to 400x400, just in case). Managed to get the above type down to £15.02 on ebay (291817129342; £14.03 + 99p postage), but this type gives better options & access to any ports. £2 cheaper on Amazon over the same seller on eBay!

Thanks again for all your help!

yes 23cm deep

Why is this expired its OOS online but I assume there are units in store still?

Which deal? Have you a link?

​I've known that, but the reviews for the Sharp's sound quality aren't as bad as the ones for the Blaupunkt's sound.

Both this Sharp and the Blaupunkt are made by a company called UMC so I'd get whichever one fits your needs best in terms of price and screen size. What are you going to use it for? Have you a link to the Blaupunkt?

I think Tesco Direct are OOS for this Sharp on their website but some store still have stock.

FYI both this Sharp and that Blaupunkt TV are made by UMC

Thank you Sir for the info! A few folk have missed the 97cm info which is key.

Have ordered this for in-laws who use a TV stand & just confirmed that the base (the traditional upside down T type) of the old one is only 56cm. Have asked the width of the stand now (though it won't help as it is pointed)! Arrghhh!

Can you confirm that the feet are 23cm deep?

​Cheers for the heads up. I have been following that deal closely & have been tempted to buy, but the reviews are holding me back so far (especially regarding sound quality)

See this link http://www.product-reviews.net/2016/11/20/sharp-lc-49cfg6001k-smart-tv-review-fears-in-2016/

It gives the link to the similar model that was posted earlier.

getting it delivered tomrw dont want anymore as bought lg 49

Check out the "Blaupunkt BLA-43/134MXN Smart 43 Inch Full HD LED TV" for £150

Got mine. Perfect tv. Upgraded from 5yr old Samsung and far better. Hd channels bonus and also many hd holes. 18mth guarantee too. Sound is awesome.

Can anyone please help? Does anybody know what width this is and how many inches the legs are from the outside of the
tv? Ive ordered but now wondering if it'll fit on my tv stand!!

Ordered one earlier, does anyone know the width and depth between the stand feet? I want to make sure my TV stand is big enough.

That's just a guideline look at the stand it is Vesa 200x200 and the max load is 25kg. The TV is 11.6Kg and Vesa 200x200

So the stand will 1) Fit on the back of the TV 2) Support a unit TWICE the weight of this TV 3) The larger screen is not an issue as the excess will overhang the frame.

Suire you can get this one for larger screens http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tilt-TV-Wall-Mount-Bracket-26-32-40-42-46-47-50-55-LCD-Samsung-Sony-HOT-/262400417922 but that costs more, but it might be worth if if you want the mount to take this screen and later on perhaps a larger screen? Worth looking at the pull out and swivel mounts (£17 on eBay) as these are useful for 1) positioning away from the wall ie not flat against the wall with a tilt) 2) Pull the screen out to plug in accessories e.g. Chromecast, Rasberry Pi etc)

just done an update and have netflix installed now. Also gives 1 month free

Out of stock on the Tesco Direct website

None in Durham if anyone is wondering

Sold out

I've no idea about makes and thinking about buying this. Is it a good deal please? There is a Blaupunkt at £149 too. Any advice gratefully received as I'm scratching in the dark a bit. Thank you. Margaret

im sure some one has asked but can you put kodi on this ??? i have a plex on a now tv thanks . great buy

Just been looking on the Tesco website & they have a 43" Sharp Smart TV, similar to this one (except screen size, obviously)

I just hope they put that model on sale at some point too, since it's currently £249. If they reduce that TVs price to around £130-£150 I'll definitely buy it.

This 49" is a scorcher of a deal, but too big for my bedroom.

Come on Tesco, drop the price on the 43" !!!

Out of stock.
"Sorry, we don't have enough Sharp LC-49CFG6001K Smart Full HD 49 Inch LED TV with Freeview HD items in stock right now. This item (s) has been added to your save for later basket. You can try to purchase this item again by reducing its quantity."

49 not 47 :smiley:

Was going to purchase a 40 inch screen for the young lad's bedroom this Christmas but seen this deal so went with it instead. At 200 quid for a 47 it's a no-brainer.

Ordered online with delivery to door next week FOC. **** the turmoil of waiting in a queue @ Tesco and having to endure getting car parked when I can get it delivered for free. I'd even have paid for delivery to avoid the mayhem which is Black Friday.

damn Quidco site is down :disappointed:

Although based on the review above I think i'll give it a miss, picture worse than a 32" 720p Hitachi? I'll pass

Picked up 2 of these from my local super store, they had quite a few and they didn't seem to be any big rush for them. Have installed one and my initial thoughts are - my last used 20 years ago aerial doesn't seem to be working so no Freeview. Linked it into my video processor and adjusted the picture, very few options here, for example no ability to change individual colours or hue etc.

It feels light weight and cheap. It is quite a thick unit at the back and doesn’t sit as flush to the wall as my older set, I have about a 10 cm gap now.

The set shows up the difference between my sources far more than my other screens do. My skybox feed looks better than my freesat box. Not sure if this means the set is actually resolving the picture better but in viewing terms…

To me the picture quality looks worse than my old, but well regarded in its day, Hitachi 32" 720p screen and my projector too for that matter, some judder on panning, some halos round people etc (even with sharpness turned to zero) some jagged edges and distortion on spots/lines etc but for £199 I don't think you could expect more. Its all liveable with and better than one should expect for the best picture

Audio sounds pretty good on speech – haven’t listed to music or action films yet

Apps – These look to be heavily biased at Europe and it took me a while to work out where the headline UK apps were, but once I found them they all worked far faster than my Now tv box does, probably because the TV is hardwired to the LAN

The biggest issue I think is the feet, if you are planning to use the feet and a table it needs to be at least a meter wide. The feet are 97cm apart to the outside edges. The other option is to buy a table top mount that uses the VESA mounts on the rear.

Think of it as a bargain priced cheap TV and all in all for £199 I don’t think many people will be disappointed.

​but the EBay one only up to 32inch?

​I was in the same boat. The 32" is currently sobbing. The Sharp may "only be £200", but it's a pretty good display. Booted up Portal 2, from a GT820m, when I got home with it and saw no obvious problems. IMO, good buy.

​this was at Cumbernauld store

Is this better than the Samsung deal?

anyone knows what's the thickness of this TV? I have a wall mount on and the plugs are hidden behind the the tv so just wanna make sure this TV has enough clearance from the wall.... Thank you!

This is a steal. Glad it got posted just before 5am: I saw this and strolled down to my local. Wimped out on walking back with it and paid for a taxi.

Any particular store?

got mine, quite a few left in store too

Should be fine, this looks similar for less? Page 39 of the manual (thanks to soled47 for this link) stated "VESA 200 x 200 (mm) and 11.6KG" for the wall mounting section at the bottom of the page

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UK-Plasma-LED-3D-TV-LCD-Wall-Bracket-Mount-14-17-19-20-22-24-26-28-30-32-Inch-/252338749493

Is there a link?

​​everyone who is buying Sharp 49inch from Tesco looking for soundbar check my deal

Thanks OP

just bit the bullet! cheers op

Yes - I've answered my own question. :smile:

This is a link to the Manual I have to say it's pretty impressive for the price. Yes it's not 10bit, 4k, HDR etc but it's £199 and from a retailer with good customer service.

Is this bracket suitable for this Sharp TV?
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004RB5QWA/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

Lots in Tesco Aston too this was at 9am few people looking at them

Thanks for posting this. I bought mine at Tesco Basildon at 7am this morning. No queues, no violence, just a big stack of TVs.

I'm not suggesting you're an idiot. But it might be an idea to ask PayPal if there's a way to speed things up.

Yeah,. I m not a noob on a pc or anything lol I've tried everything I can to get my money into real money. Every bank has a different transfer time, looks like I have a bad one. I could get a paypal card or send the money elsewhere but nothing is instant enough for me to get this t.v today lol , and no doubt in 1-3 days it'll be gone.

Anybody found any t.v in this price range which are just as good ? maybe 43" smart ? or 40" 4k in the 200 range ?

If i dont get a new t.v xmas the christmas films won't look as good !!! HOME ALONE HELP ! thanks lol

I use my PayPal account a lot - thousands of pounds of transactions per month. The money always transfers over pretty much instantly - their emails state 'within two hours'. Not really sure why you're seeing different? Could be your bank, or might be something to do with account verification? It's always worked like this for me.

I get from ASDA LG 49LH5100 ......£179

Bank transfers may take 0-3 working days depending on your bank..... I tested this with a £1 yesterday and still hasn't cleared.

I presume this would be better option than Blaupunkt?

I'm gonna ring them & ask for 130 free clubcard points!!! :smiley: [Joking but 5% tempted] :smile:

if anyone bought this at the full list price hoping for a refund I just rang CS and they refunded the £130 difference no problem, happy days.
thanks to OP for posting

Anyone know if this supports PVR (i.e plug in a USD drive to record programs on?)

Does the TV have scart connection?

Anyone comment on watching sports on this TV. is there a lot of motion blur? How is it with games consoles?

This has a Vesa mount so can be wall hung, eBay has good value wall mounts many come with fixing kits.

TCB on tnis TV and ebay if you are buying the wall mount

For those wondering. I purchased this a few days ago at 329.99 and after a phone call to Tesco customer services they have refunded me the 130 difference

Can this be wall hung or you have to put it on tv stand

Ordered mine

bought two - great deal - already have the 43 inch version - no issues

Got mine.
Yes i did lol i bought two

got one! loving the comments from the haters. probably the same people that say don't buy a Ford focus they're rubbish, Mercedes are better.. well yeah.. duh

Does your PayPal account transfer money to your bank via your debit card, or via Bank Transfer? Mine does it Bank Transfer - the money is usually there within minutes (PayPal claim "within two hours").

It was worth getting up at 4.30 am after all . Nice deal .

No use just now, but just get a PayPal card, you can then pay for anything with the funds clearing from your account - I've done it for the past 2 years, brilliant

ordered mine :smile:

anybody have any idea how could buy this t.v with funds that are in my paypal, yes I could send to my bank but it takes 1-3 days transfer ,,, I NEED THIS NOW !! lol .. i tried buying an ecoupon and online gift voucer but the limit was £100 ! :disappointed: why does tesco not accept paypal damnit !

:disappointed:

Gees... you have never met him hahaha

Tesco server suffering...That happened to me this morning... empty cookies and cache and should be okay...

:confused:

Got one for father-in-law for Xmas.... with a bit of luck the **** will croak while it was worth the money and I could then stick in spare bedroom hahahaha

Hmmmm... Why did I just order a 49" tv for my 5 year olds room....:neutral_face:

You's are my witnesses, my wife mumbled that I should get it in her sleep...

Ordered thanks with roku

Can this TV download & install Showbox? (android app)

Thanks op ordered two getting delivered Wednesday :smiley:

wounded :disappointed: Tesco website said payment declined due to me putting card details in wrong, put the in them in again said the same, checked my bank to find 2 payments have gone out and Tesco are saying there are no orders placed.. fuming!!! NO TV and 2 lots of cash down... not a happy chap,

Just ordered. Website couldn't process payment, so gaveTesco a call and they put it through. Heat added

Ordered thanks. Quidco 5.5%

ordered. thanks for heads up :wink:

ordered! My old LCD is around 8 years old and isn't smart and doesn't have a HD tuner ... completely sold on the price, plus I had £50 worth of vouchers to use .. so £150 for cash :-)

Ordered thanks!

Martin Deves?
Link?

I was just about to ask this one or the other one recently advertised which I commented on, went to my comment and its the same one!!

Ordered a Sony 48 inch from Martin Deves for £315 which is better

are these any good ?

Got mine

I'm tempted too, been a few sub 200 TV's do I need this big in a small room though, currently 32", yes I must live in poverty for those that are thinking,wtf!!

Ordered mine. Thanks for letting us know about this.

No. He ordered at £329 a few days ago, and is getting his £130 refund tomorrow.

​That's the general idea.

I am tempted by this deal hmmm

ive got mine

you have to guess, he wants attention

any good this tv ?

why whats wrong with it

I don't really watch a lot of tv. so apart from the lack of 4k - what other things is this TV lacking? can I browse the web and stream video from websites?

Mine's sat in my hallway with a guaranteed refund tomorrow. Happy days

​You get what you pay for with TV's
