Well I guess I know what I'm doing today.

Not really though, when you look at the requirements to actually display HDR properly. It's a bit of a lie. But all TV's do this.

Now back down to £649.99

Back up to £689.

'Maybe' your right. I went into JL and the sales advisor said he was getting fed up of people returning these sets and advised me to go for a hisense instead. Am just pondering whether to bite the bullet on this model or go for the 65" version m5500 / m5510 for an extra £50 decisions decisions !

Many people are complaining of judder on the 7000 see JL and AV forum reviews. And besides costs £250+ more (if your lucky)

Very hot as the panel is 10 bit (unlike other tvs that are only 8 bit) and you cant beat this TV on picture quality. Beats most flagship tele from big brands.

See the discussion forums on av forum and other websites :-)

Same here. Almost took the plunge. Glad I didn't. The hisense will do for now. It's only got positive reviews mainly and costs ALOT cheaper.

Anybody seen this and the Samsung uu55ks7000 side by side? How do they compare?

Purchased yesterday from rs for 50 more :disappointed:

Is this £200 better than the m6600?

Price matched and purchased at JL. Thanks OP

​from what I've seen people are hung up on if it's 10 bit or not, you can have a 10 bit panel but it doesn't perform well with HDR, it achieves only 420 nits well short of 1000 premium standard, you should look at the quality of the picture for which media you are using it for.

newer models (H9D) announced at CES2017 are offering brighter screens with motion240 and HDR 10bit for similar pricing. out in spring so not too long a wait.

I think the 7000 is 10bit

TV died on me within 2 months. Panel suddenly gave up. Going through warranty now. Don't think I would buy again.

Trying to decide between this and the 65" 5000 series.

I should probably go for this one as, as far as I've heard, ULED is almost as good as OLED.

This TV is great, bought one on Amazon Black Friday event for the same price, unfortunately after a month it developed a cluster of dead pixels, so it went back to Amazon for a refund. If I find this dips below £550 I'll buy one as a bedroom TV. Very good blacks compared to my ageing Samsung Plasma TV. Screen is mostly uniform, HDR performance is a bit lacklustre as it isn't very bright. It has some issues with colour skin tones, where they are orange and there isn't much you can do about it, it might be a firmware issue or not.

Overall I was happy with the set as I said would still consider one, but I'm currently looking for 65" tv as I feel this is where I would get more for my money, as with 4K content it really is nice on a bigger tv.

Well I guess I know what I'm doing today.

Will JL price match this given that it's only a 2 year warranty?

Great price for a cracking TV. Paid £100 more for this last year at JL with 3 years warranty. Smart TV isn't as snazzy as the so called bigger brands but it is still very functional. Only gripe I have (and it is minor) is Netflix app doesn't support HDR. Netflix will address that at some point I am led to believe.

This is one of those moments where you are chuffed with yourself as you have found one of those proper bargains you hunt for

Also does anyone know the difference between the 55m7000 and 55m5500 ? The John Lewis website states exactly the same description. ( a lot of people are saying there is no YouTube and Netflix in HD available on the 7000 series) am thinking to order one of these but not sure which one to go for ( also the 5500 is about £100 cheaper) any help would be appreciated guys

Will RS price match this with the differing warranty?!

Is this worth £200 more than the m6600? What are the differences?

Cold, not A Rated on energy. (B Rated 175 watts)

Is the picture fantastic on the freeview hd Channels ?

HDR itself is a bit of a lie, it's a mess at the moment no standardisation or control and tv manufacturers are taking advantage of the situation

The 7000 has HDR.

fantastic TV for the price. got one myself when it was a £100 from richer sounds and it's superb. look at the forums on AV Forums for the best settings. blows my in laws 2.5k Sony out of the water!!!!

​I think he meant £100 more. Peace guys.

​agreed £100 must have been a special flied plice :laughing::stuck_out_tongue:

Hot as you can use Crampton and Moore for John Lewis price match

Heat cheapest I can see plus can get the others to price match.
