Are you looking to travel back to when this joke was funny and original?? :stuck_out_tongue:

Actually, the post was useful, your response was pointless. You've obviously seen other people make it and thought you'd copy them to look clever, but you don't understand the context.

If someone says that "X is not a good price because it was Y in 2015", that's the kind of comment that'll earn a tired time machine joke.

If someone provides information about relative pricing, without the moaning, that is just useful.

What do you think Camel Camel Camel is for? Time machine owners?

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn.

So I have basically learned next to nothing about this TV after 40 comments, due to all the pointless slanging.
Nice work homies.

He didn't say it's a bad deal, just that it's been cheaper before. No guarantees that the previous deal will return but good for some to know.

Reserved this but shop said they couldn't apply code at the till, had to buy the tv online applying the code and then go to different collection point, pain but got there in the end

hey ive been getting that error as well! did you manage to get a pic ive tried but it cuts out and goes back to the freeview TV mode and hisense says they have never heard of it before..did you buy it from Argos? by any chance?

Insufficiant memory error on this tv just tried to watch netflix thats all

I didn't notice anything about a warranty, does anyone know what it is?

got a new code: TV10

CODE EXPIRED :disappointed:

Depends on your budget as you will be paying a lot more for a tv than can display hdr10 which pspro requires,this tv cannot display hdr10 its an 8 bit panel that can accept a hdr signal but cannot display it fully,you may get an improved picture over a standard led tv but it cannot display the full colour range that the pspro was designed to display as you will need a 10 bit panel tv

Hi,

Could I get some advice please; debating this or the recently advertised deal - http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/philips-49pus6401-49-inch-smart-4k-ultra-hd-tv-with-hdr-359-10-with-code-tv10-argos-2625648

Anyone kindly able to offer expertise?

Intended use for medium sized bedroom, ps4 pro and streaming films etc

Thanks
Karim

eww. save up a bit more for a proper tv

AV forum said the 7000 series Hisense was Highy Recommended and many reviews compare Hisense to the likes of Samsung and Sony but without the pricetag.
They are aggressively targeting those brands and seem to be doing a very good job. As said elsewhere they are a HUGE electronics company its just only recently they've moved into the Euro and US markets.
Their 2017 models are highly anticipated due to the amazing job they did in 2016 with their range.
sound like a salesman don't I lol Just done a lot of research into tvs recently thats all :-)

Twas working last night,you could just go through the order procedure and it will show the discount before purchase.

Andaho many thanks

Is the discount code TVSAVE still valid?

I had never heard of Hisense either.

On a serious note, I have been out of the UK for 4 years and never heard of Hisense. Are these just voted hot as they are cheap for OK standard? I am assuming they are mass Chinese made, and that usually means a bit lacking on some departments.

Everyone used to love Samsung and the Panasonic when I last bought a TV 7 years ago. Are these really the new favourites?

We don't know for certain if you'd need a new card, as Freesync 2 will be supported on current gen cards. Also according to Eurogamer while Game VRR is HDMI 2.1 standard, it doesn't need a HDMI 2.1 cable, so it is possible the 470 could be patched to support Game VRR, specially if it essentially FreeSync 2 under a different name. However both FreeSync 2 and HDMI 2.1 standard is actually rolled out we don't know for certain, I am personally expecting yes, as MS have already announced that Project Scorpio will support Game VRR, so I expect AMD have a solution to support Game VRR with their current cards.

Some good info here on setting the screen up for better viewing

Taxi for Arnie

A lot of sensible people.

eeeow, yuck.. who buys these cheapoo TV's :confused:

I bought this TV from Argos last week. excellent TV. The picture right out of the box is a bit dull and the dynamic settings are too damn bright for my retinas lol, so I ended up checking the TV calibration for this model on YouTube and applying it. I have to say it is really good and pictures looking pin sharp.

I play PES 2017 on the TV and it isn't bad either in the game mode, however, the colour need readjusting etc.

The curve is just slight on it that it is not noticeable, however this means poor viewing angles - the pictures looked washed out when viewed from out side of the viewing angles. This is compensated with that fact that it is a big screen and covers the general sitting and viewing area in the living room well.

There is a software update for this TV and it should come up when booted up. I believe it added the Freeview play and HDR or so.

A few apps are on it - BBC iPlayer, Amazon, Netflix and other catch up services. I think this is not a bad TV for the price. Just be prepared to apply the settings to get a good picture out of it.

Oh netflix on 4k isn't bad but netflix will add 1.99 to your bill. All the best.

I've got this TV. fantastic picture but the freeview play enabled epg is painfully slow. other apps such as iPlayer work normally

Hisense are a global company with over £15bn revenue that produces their own electronics not rebadged budget TVs like Polaroids, Technika, Blaupunkt etc. (bit like comparing LG to Alcatel phones)

Is curved bad?.......Thought it was better than flat??.....so confused, can someone explain the pros and cons please? thanks

yeah rx 470 only has hdmi 2.0

so freesync on tvs - will be VRR on hdmi 2.1 :disappointed:

Thanks for this. I saw linuxtechtips on youtube about hdmi 2.1 last night too (recommended to me by google - had clearly been reading my posts!) ... but I am confused. Would I need a new graphics card to use a freesync tv? I have an RX470.

I just googled and read this. Kind of suggested I would...

https://sapphirenation.net/what-will-hdmi-2-1-mean-for-pc-gaming/

The curve is not that prononced, its only slight. Quite a good tv but expect a bit of backlight bleed its an attractive Tv though, there is a thread on avforums with pro caliberayion settings which is quite good. Grab it its a good price but please weigh the pros and cons of buying from Argos , i wouldnt buy from argos though .sent me a used fit bit and tried to sell me a used TV as new. once may be a mistake twice i dont think so!!. Would spend a bit more and buy elsewhere, but if you collect it you could always check packaging well . Be mindful this TV outer box will lift up , check if the bottom seal are cut on the ends. Hope this will help some one.

ordered a new TV yesterday and this appears today, just my luck

overpriced! you'll see these go dirt cheap in asda some day.

I'll stick with my OLED.

£549 is the cheapest the TV has been at Argos. See Argos Price History

Are you really saying that Hisense is a home brand? It may be a new name in the UK but they have been around a while around the world. I have this same model and I'm very happy with it so far.

Really ? May have looked that way to you but not me.
Looked exactly what it was.
Don't try to add meaning to a simple line after the event

Sony Bravia KD55XD8005 55 inch Android 4K HDR Ultra HD Smart TV with TRILUMINOS Display, PlayStation Now and Google Cast (2016 Model) - Black https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01IF52BE4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_..xfzbPZZZ84H

I don't understand how you can say these TVs are crap and then say it's a great deal. A high failure rate at any price is not worth it IMO

Good deals. thanks op share this. Hot added!

Obviously this was aimed at all the pointless slanging that was going on - pretty much what you just did.

Is it as good as a £1400 Sony? NO! Maybe as good as a £1200 Samsung? NO! But for £500 you get an awful lot of technology for your money. Just bought the 49ins 4K Hisense from Ao for £339. Both picture quality and the tv itself are fantastic.

How about going to search for info yourself, "homie" ?


Hisense are one of the major makes now.
Haven't you noticed ?

Yawn.
They should do an award for the millionth time that "joke" was used on here.
Shouldn't be long now......

Great deal, however any of these 'home brand' TV's are generally pretty nasty, backlight bleeding, high failure rate etc..

Heat added

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn.

So I have basically learned next to nothing about this TV after 40 comments, due to all the pointless slanging.
Nice work homies.

Hisense H55M7000 £669.99 (£569.99 with BNPL) @ Very

Dunno how much better the 7000 series is though.

Heat added

55M6600 is 479.99 @ very with BNPL is you don't mind using very that is.

Android smart or just smart smart?

Having been a user this website since its infancy one thing ive noticed is that there's nothing like a TV deal to bring the argumentative, pedantic plantpots out in force ......


hot deal btw, excellent TV for the price

best tv deal this week http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/philips-49pus6401-49-inch-smart-4k-ultra-hd-tv-with-hdr528-399-argos-2686298 but was £40 cheaper 2 months back still a great deal nothing stays the same price? http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/philips-49pus6401-49-inch-smart-4k-ultra-hd-tv-with-hdr-359-10-with-code-tv10-argos-2625648

Quit being so stubborn. You made a bad joke, get over it.

Anyway, nobody said this site is 'useless'. This site highlights noteworthy deals; people's valuable input (as well as tools like camelcamelcamel) provide us with perspective on just how great or not-so-great these deals are. With this information, individuals can make a more informed decision on whether or not to buy the product at the time of posting.

Some only care about the present and may really want the item, so they disregard past prices, and that's fine. Others don't need the item desperately and are happy waiting for a lower price, especially after knowing it was once cheaper. Some of the counterarguments on here are just silly, I mean someone compared petrol to a 4K HDTV. Really now.

If you had a time machine surely you'd do Biff and buy a sports results book and then change the future for the worse whilst getting filthy rich.

Or you could save a few quid on a Hisense I suppose.

So this site is useless because the price might be reduced later?
Nearly all electrical items get cheaper over time as newer versions are released.

My crystal ball is out of batteries so I can only go off the best price available AT THE MOMENT :wink:

Fact is this is a good deal, 596°, regardless of how much Amazon sold it for.

You seem to be the only person living in this "RIGHT NOW" mentality. Most people considering purchasing a TV most probably do not need one "RIGHT NOW." Most people could probably afford to wait and see if a better price comes along soon enough. A TV is a luxury not an essential that one must have, correct?

Why do you think Camel Camel Camel graphs are often referenced here? Wouldn't you say if the price of something was on sale for less before, it would be more likely to drop again than an item whose price is not fluctuating? So yes whether a deal is a good deal should take into account past, present and future prices.

crap

Great Price !! heat for the price. not for Argos though , wouldn't buy anything like a TV or anything over £10 From Argos .
Reason--tried to flog me used items on a couple of occasions . one was..Yes you Guessed it a TV luckily I went to collect it and saw straight away it had been unboxed before. manger denied it. until I saw a delivery sticker on the side with some one else's name & Address :confused: it was a Hisense 55M3000.

Btw I have got this TV...I got it from Amazon for the cheaper price others have mentioned a while ago .it does have some backlight bleeding issues .had one sent back but the second one too has some but not too bad I think its a very good TV for the Money!!

Yeah ok boss! Seen and used it plenty of times, thanks!

This is the best price RIGHT NOW so who cares what it was? Totally irrelevant. Especially when the named company are asking £80 more.

This is a deal site afterall, not what you could of got it for in the past.

Real question now is why am I wasting my time responding to you?...

Been cheaper. For about £459 on amazon

Absolutely spot on, I find it useful to know how the price of something has been fluctuating before making a purchase.

I'd get 55m5500 from richer sounds for £499. A tad more for 6 yr warranty and non curve.

+1 - good post.

it's easy to get sucked in with a £100 off £600 when something was £450 previously!
Knowing something was cheaper before in a deal simple provides context!
Petrol was cheaper last year! Have u stopped buying petrol?

Actually, the post was useful, your response was pointless. You've obviously seen other people make it and thought you'd copy them to look clever, but you don't understand the context.

If someone says that "X is not a good price because it was Y in 2015", that's the kind of comment that'll earn a tired time machine joke.

If someone provides information about relative pricing, without the moaning, that is just useful.

What do you think Camel Camel Camel is for? Time machine owners?

They are woeful. Extend your warranty wherever possible

That's not the only thing if you wanted a tv but not quite ready you will know odds are it will be this price or less again

wonder when freesync coming to tvs.... as I game on them with my pc I am waiting....

It's an amazing tv for the price I've had a few months. Netflix in 4K HDR looks great through Xbox tho the HDR is quite dark it helps when there is a HDR brightness adjustment available.

sounds like an attempted joke imo

It looks suspiciously good. Apparently it's 8-bit panel + FRC and a very good size for being under £500. Does anyone know if there's any catch? I don't particularly like the fact it's curved, but my living room 40" old Bravia needs a replacement and this one looks pretty good.

Not a joke. It's a response to a pointless post.

Are you looking to travel back to when this joke was funny and original?? :stuck_out_tongue:

The only thing that matters, right now, is Amazon have this priced at £579.

He didn't say it's a bad deal, just that it's been cheaper before. No guarantees that the previous deal will return but good for some to know.

7000 series are ULED ones. These aren't. But i'd still buy it

great tv got it for £450 couple of months ago

Hisense TVs are sold by John Lewis, Richer Sounds, Crampton & Moore to name a few.
The 7000 range is top spec so this mid range i guess and its the 7000 series that haveen getting serious praise in general

previously had only seen hisense on ao.com and heard bad things about sending back.

wow didn't know argos did hisense. not sure which hisense is better than others but heard good things about them. i need to stop looking and wait til freesync comes out for tvs.......... stop tempting me!!!! :wink:
