Just dropped to 379.99 again. Plenty of threads on this site about this TV if you need info. One day after I purchased an LG at £450 annoyingly!

I so want one of our tvs to break so I can justify these cheap 4K sets.
First time I've wished for something to fail!

Good Tv's, friend has one, there is a firmware update and tweak in the settings for enabling HDR.

the dreaded very.co.uk have dropped £100 to this price also. im sure it could be gotten cheaper from there with one of their signup/credit deals 10 or 20% off.

But is this a 'value' TV, I've been out of the tech loop for a while now and I'm not a brand snob I just want something that's actually good quality.

I've had the TV for 10 months. I'm no TV nutt, so I've no doubt spec geeks will slate it, but we (my family and myself) think the picture quality is superb. You will need a sound bar though and may need to adjust sound settings otherwise HD channels blast you ears off and SD channels you can't hear. But the setting is easily changed so they are all the same.

We have the 55" version of this and it has been great. I'd definitely recommend it, especially at this price

How's the HDR on this? I know it's 8 bit, but some 8 bit TV have decent HDR

I was a TV snob until I paid less for this tv. Value for money is absolutely superb.

i have this tv and i am not that impressed with it, banding on sport is terrible, and had to be fixed after 2 months due to flashing, i have sky q and ultra hd is no better than the hd..glad i never paid much for it..

Try turning the contrast and backlight up to 100% and if you have a setting for it, change the colour gamut from rec 709 to rec 2020.
You may have to tinker a bit with your colour settings as well.

its only 10% for electrical items if you're a new customer...20% on anything else.
I've heard you might have to update the firmware because some movie files won't work until you update.

Bought this for the same price during a recent AO.com voucher code deal and I have to say for the money it's spot on once you get the settings right (Google is your friend). Netflix/YouTube/Wuaki/Casting, 4k and HDR with a decent screen size. What's not to like at this price? I have a year old 600 quid Sony 4k that's not even getting HDR.

Buying a cheap 4k TV, feeding it 1080i/1080p junk upscaled 4x and pretending that's 4k?
I suspect that could put a blemish on things.
