Would take a good quality HD tv over a poor quality 4k tv any day

I have been looking at a hell of a load of reviews of 4k tv with a view to buying one and have come to the conclusion that they all have problems from things like light bleed because most are edge lit,banding,motion blur and a lot of them have very poor sd picture and even hd picture not as good as dedicated FHD set plus the fact there isn't that much HDR content about at the moment so for the time being i'm keeping my 43" lg 1080 with superb picture no backlight bleeding because it is direct backlight no banding no motion blur watching sport and also superb passive 3D

I can see the difference between 4k in a vestel and HD from a branded TV from miles away.
4k is just better. Yeah cheap 4k TV don't have deep blacks, or great speakers... But cheap 4k on a 4k TV beats HD content on any HD TV to me.

I think that set seems like a good choice and I am considering doing the exact same thing, what do you think to a 4k monitor though - the lg 27" ips 4k or the predator 28" tn 4k or even the electriq 28" tn 4k panel - smaller screens but alot less money!?

These cheap 4K tv paupers need to learn economics..

come backs as sharp as a £400 4k screen :smile:

I have this set and although it's not perfect (What TV IS) for that price you are getting an excellent picture.

If someone is considering buying this a Full HD TV they're obviously not going to be watching 4K content so it comes down to the quality of 1080P and SD content, a Full HD TV handles SD content far better than a 4K TV, so a 4K tv will be of poorer quality inherently.

No I wont.

excellent!! cheers!!

You'll be telling me a Grundig 4k tv is a good buy next

im looking at the 43 inch ks7500 for gaming

This.

Hisense are around this price and are good quality? so again when did I say poor quality?

you did when you said you could get a 49" 4k tv for this price

My advice, not that you asked :wink: , but If all of that is important to you then you need to lay out a bit of cash..

I have a 55 KS7000, I have none of the issues mentioned above... at the moment the deals for the KS9000 as amazing, and the OLED deals at the moment are also very good, but you are looking at £1300+ to get a decent set.

But in fairness you can pick up an 49" LG for under £500.00 that I would argue would be just as good if not better (4K + App selection) than this set..

Also Sony have the worst boot up times on the TV's takes minutes!

Who said anything about poor quality 4K?

can you get the smart IPTV app on Sony?

Does the 40" 4K TV come with binoculars so you can see the inprovement in picture quality?

You can get a decent 4k for this price just not as big, 40-42

Seems like a good buy. But only 2 HDMIs (+ 2xUSB) according to the Sony specs - why so few nowadays?

thanks for that

You can pick up a 49" 4K TV for about the same price if you keep your eye out, this isnt a very good deal IMO.

Paid £409 for this as Deal of the Day back in March. Nice TV but had to buy a soundbar to enjoy the sound.

That's a banging price, heat added

full hd at this price
