some of you guys make me laugh you want 58" TV but it has to be a 10 Bit panel and have HDR, like that is really going to happen for £566, This is a fantastic TV for the price very good viewing angles, Excellent blacks and the unit is very well made, Nice and bright with strong colours, for £35 you can buy a magic remote that works great with it.

That's me convinced then, cheers :wink:

terrible customer service in some Argos outlets. I walked away when the instore manageress refused to honour or match the 10% off code. went to richersounds instead and got a 60ks7000 for £849.

No. The Argos representative i spoke to on the phone said to refuse delivery next time, they can not make you take delivery.

Yes I know, the other guy told me! :smirk:

Are you really obliged to take delivery? Isn't it better just to refuse delivery, take a photo and then chase it up with Argos (saves the trouble if return if they don't collect)

Well Yodel turned up with mine this afternoon and promptly took a 55" Bush TV from his van. That's not right i said, it should be an LG 58". 'you have to take delivery mate and sort it out with Argos, nothing to do with me'.

3 web chats later with Argos, 3 different ways round it, take it back to the shop, refund and re-order.
So rang them up and was told to check inside the box it might be the LG one inside! Guess what.......it wasn't!! :confused:
Apparently the right dispatch sticker has been put on the wrong box.
So they are going to delivery another on Tuesday. Fingers crossed. :smirk:

alot of people of have complained the back peels away with the ks7500's...& has to be glued back on

Try my Panasonic deal or if u want this tv try my CO-OP deal £584 with code

Seems like you been sniffing glue bruh :smirk:

Plus a tube of glue for when the back comes unstuck.

Holding on for 12 bit.

I was just about to order why has the price gone up

I salute you Sir Trueblue79!

Price has gone up on this one now to £669.99 making it £606.05 :disappointed: This still a good deal or is there better TV's at this price?

I am known to be a man of my word :smile:

[/img]

samsung ks7500 if you have a grand to spend

Any downsides? :man:

What if you are not human? I don't want my goldfish to think I am skimping on quality now. :laughing:

:confused: proof of purchase is required now please

Have your home valued in a year. You will feel better :wink:

For those worried about stand size on this you could buy a universal vesa stand for £35

Pro Signal Pedestal Stand for 32 - 60-Inch LCD TV https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00XJRJFNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_FFXqzbTJ8RQJE

I like how Sony makes crappy cheaper TVs, thus forcing you into the conundrum of whether you'll fork out more for one of their better trouble free TVs

i'm just trying to give an answer based on actual experience :smiley:, the panel are thin and produce some heat, which isn't great for the components, within. I had lcd monitor die in the last week of a 3 year warranty they just replaced it with a better one and I have now repaired a few (monitors not tvs) all of which have probably failed due to heat. The difference has got to be large for you to consider it. But I would say more than £50.

I don't know much about TV specs. Someone mentioned the Panasonic and the Sony so I assumed they were better models than the LG.

I read a few reviews on the Sony model which all noted the android tv built in was slow. Reviews of he Panasonic noted it ran smooth.

I've still not ordered as I'm undecided but if you can advise on why the LG is superior to the other two I'm all ears.

£523.65 paid using 7.5% discounted vouchers, heat added

Ordered , Thanks Op and all those who have offered good advice.

Also used Topcashback for another £5+

Cant find any stores with stock but delivery is only £3.95.....I would use that in petrol.

Also used my Nationwide Credit card which gives a further 1 year Warranty.

£523.65 paid using 7.5% discounted vouchers, heat added

The 50" of this on Argos says it has HDR in the title but this one does not?
Logic says that either this model would both have it or not and not one of the other?
http://www.argos.co.uk/product/5324107

I also have to make decision on this; budget is up to £1000 so thinking what best I can have within my budget.

Sitting on the fence...I'll buy this if it hits 1000 hot lol

this is actually a solid argument. but, I don't know how Argos handle warranty issues with large TVs, but richersounds do arrange to collect and drop off TV. many many other places do require you to return TV to them. which is a pita.

nearly £200 more expensive for a start, 3" smaller has a sluggish Android system and is known for light bleed.

How is Sony 55XD8005 for £749 @ John Lewis in comparison to this?

The 668v is a fake 4K tv as it RGBW :disappointed:http://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/98b248b

The 635v is a much better tv the only advantage the 668v has its supplied with a magic remote but you could buy one for the 635v and it would still be cheaper :smiley:

excellent!! cheers!!

This one or LG55UH668V for £649 @ currys; may be 5 year warranty

you would need to reserve one and ask the manager to give the discount, beware not all will do this, just pay online and collect is the easiest way.

im a little confused as above you say Sony tv which would use Andriod tv, you then mention the Panasonic which uses the Firefox system which is good but personally i think the LG is better as it uses the webos 3 system which is fast and has all the major catch up services and uses a much better MVA panel. The only drawback is if you have a small tv cabinet as the legs are fixed.

Thanks for the reply.

Just watched a video or two and the Panasonic has adjustable mounts (brilliant) and seems to offer a more streamlined app service rather than forcing him android TV as the option which does sound better.

I'm bloody well tempted

How to get it in £566, price is £629- I want to reserve it and want to pay in store- any idea?

The Panasonic tv bigger cheaper and u can switch legs to centre and it no use Android system it use Firefox just my opinion

you might own a similar model but it cannot be this tv if you have owned it for a few years as this is a 2016 model with HDR function :smiley:

I actually own this TV and have for a few years, bought before the HDR boom :disappointed:

But as for pic quality it's a really great looking TV that plays Bluray and UHD Bluray really well. With the MVA panel, the blacks are very deep, almost OLED level (to my eyes anyway). The screen has a very pure black look when off, so think that helps.

If youre looking for HDR, it aint here though. Still looks great on my PS4 pro, but if you want HDR gaming, its gotta be the Samsung KS7000 series or above.

Sony tvs in this price range normally suffer from bad back light bleed and the Android operating system is very slow to respond due to the lack of processing power and memory the tv has, If you want a large screen TV without breaking the Bank this would be the one to go for.

Thanks DiscoMan.

Would you care to elaborate on why this is better than the Sony TV?

Here's my amateur view on why I prefer the Sony. Saves me buying a new TV stand as the Sony is a central stand where as the other two listed in here have legs on the edge. Have a feeling it will require an additional purchase

I have replied to your same post in the CO OP thread

try this one out of all my tv deals posted i would buy this https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/argos-panasonic-58-inch-dx700b-4k-uhd-smart-led-tv-62910-with-codetvsave-2711014 enjoy

I won't begin to pretend I understand TVs. I had two rather average 32" screens in the house and were due an upgrade.

I don't care to shell out £1k+ but I'm happy around the £600 marker but then you still want best bang for buck. Not sure whether the Sony or LG is better value.

I assume there is no advantage to get a 4k TV unless you have a source device that can playback at 4k?

I am still using my old Sky HD box (not Sky Q) which I think only outputs in 720p so probably will not see any advantages on a TV like this?

Thanks

So it's 8 bit + FRC so not a truly native 10 bit tv. I don't understand any of what I just said just c and from your link and a quick google

You can usually tell by the price in my experience

Is that 8 or 10 bit? How do I check?

Thanks

:stuck_out_tongue:
I understand it was a bit 'how long is a piece of string' but I thought perhaps someone who follow TV technology / prices on a day to day basis would have an idea.

That's me convinced then, cheers :wink:

I've just checked this for you, and yes, possibly, but not definitely. Hope that clears things up for you.

Some people say different between 8 bit and 10bit isn't noticeable and others say it's like the difference between sd and hd, what's the truth anyone?

True, but the difference between 10 bit and 8 bit FRC is imperceptible to the human eye

Hot if it suits your needs/ wants. Cold if like me you want 10 bit HDR for latest games consoles. Not voting either way.

Whilst reading your comment and recognising the familiar message r.e. the importance of 5/6 year warrantys I found myself, as normal, thinking I would not mind forgoing a long warranty - as it is generally in the first year something goes wrong - these warrantys only exist as a sales gimmick that 9 times out of 10 has to be in the sellers favour otherwise why would they offer it... and then you mention two people who had issues and I start to question my logic ... but then you state that said problems occured in the first year.. so again I am thinking 5/6 years is great if like for like price, but otherwise I would take the gamble! True risk taker me! :man:

Only one review;

Looking for a tv to pair with the Xbox One X when it launches in November. How would this hold up?

Please can anyone that already has this set let me know if the feet are adjustable (i.e. can they be moved closer together). Cheers.

Hell of a set for the money then.

Richer sounds does 6 year warranty and John Lewis 5 years with their tvs, sometimes the TVs are a little more, but its seriously not worth skimping on. I know two people who had issues with their tv (LG and Panasonic), was in the first year though.

Are these rgbw sets?

spotted online. was a clearance, but even the one year warranty only is as good in fact better than Argos warranty.

This or the panasonic?

Is the difference between 4K, HDR 8 bit and HDR 10 bit that big? My eyes are pap so can't see me noticing much above 4K

terrible customer service in some Argos outlets. I walked away when the instore manageress refused to honour or match the 10% off code. went to richersounds instead and got a 60ks7000 for £849.

I have this TV and it is the most beautiful man made technology I have ever seen. Picture is pin sharp - even for a glaucoma sufferer like myself.

We sit a fair distance away, our lounge is 12' square but even up close - it's just a magical experience.

Just got rid of a 20" Matsui from our bedroom which was top of the range when purchased - this is just mind blowingly good.

All online services work flawlessley and the HDD recoring is so quick and good quality!

Bargain!!

It says 129.8 wide with stand, but can anyone tell me what distance apart the feet are, as ive only 112 surface area on av stand, cheers.

The difference between 8 bit and 10 bit is insane, wouldn't buy an 8 bit now as I'd feel like I'd bet on the wrong horse.

cheap lg 8+2 bit HDR Dolby vision http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lg-49uh770v-49-inch-smart-4k-super-ultra-hd-tv-with-hdr-476-10-with-code-tvsave-2711301 or the 55inch lg from argos £611.10

From what I've just read, LG's official definition of their 'HDR Pro' is that it is a full 10bit panel but doesn't support Dolby Vision.

Seems like an excellent price for a 4k LG TV - £80 cheaper than Amazon for example.

I'm not in a rush as such though. How good is this price? As in, am I likely to get a better deal for a similar TV if I can wait til Black Friday?

hows the lag for gaming

still prefer a proper remote in the hand

some of you guys make me laugh you want 58" TV but it has to be a 10 Bit panel and have HDR, like that is really going to happen for £566, This is a fantastic TV for the price very good viewing angles, Excellent blacks and the unit is very well made, Nice and bright with strong colours, for £35 you can buy a magic remote that works great with it.

Just moved to a new family home after buying and renovating and consequently spending a butt-load of money. It's deals like this that make me wonder if it was all worth it, as now I can't afford this TV!

excellent!! cheers!!

Hdr 10bit panel?

Could anyone in the know advise whether I would be better buying something like this or a Samsung UE55KS7000 I have been offered for £580? Replacement screen, slight crack on the bezel but nothing major, 6 months warranty

EDIT: Anyone? :disappointed:

real 10 bit? lol I wish it is :wink:

No hdr?

Kodi???

Heat :sunglasses:
