Get this 55" Sony Bravia TV for £674.10 online purchase only (FASTTRACK)
Sony KD55XE7002BU 55 Inch Smart 4K UHD TV with HDR
It's online for £749, but enter the promotion code "TVSAVE" and get 10% off (£74.90), they also give you a £10 voucher for all orders over £100.
This code may work with other Sony Bravia televisions, but I have only used it with this television. It's the best price anywhere.
Argos don't even know their doing the promotion, as the code has been around since June, but still works.

Is this better than the Philips that was advertised earlier?

I went for the Philips. For the price difference between the two, the Philips seemed a better value for the £90~ difference. From the DisplaySpecifications site and comparing the two, this looks to have a VA display and is edge-lit LED compared to the Philips' IPS display and direct-LED.

Thanks. I take it the IPS display is better??
Argos also have a Samsung for £602 after voucher code. About £28 more than Philips. I'm undecided. I've ordered the Philips but my brother says Samsung is better. Anyone got any views?

Looking to that TV, it looks like it's actually a 55MU6100, probably just rebadged as 6120 for Argos only. It has an extra input here and there, but not a big step up from what I can see on the DisplaySpecifications compare page. The Philips is also A+ energy rated, compared to the Samsung's A rating if that matters to you.
Also, the Samsung is a PLS display, which is basically Samsung's name for their IPS. VA displays are good all around but not at all for gaming due to their long response times (from what I can understand here). For me, £90 extra to see deeper blacks or brighter whites isn't a priority for me, but it depends on what you want out of your TV I guess. The Samsung linked above also looks to be an 8-bit panel, not a 10.
Hope this helps!

The higher spec model is only £50 more before discount on Argos. That seems to be a better deal?
Edit
On closer look, the only difference between the 7002 and 7073 is the motionflow (100 Vs 400). Does anyone know how much the difference is?
Edit#2 I picked one up from local Argos, so far I'm happy. The brightness looks uniform and no obvious motion lag.
