    This seems to be true for most flat screen displays. CRT sets are much better for viewing at an angle, in fact I've never sat in the chair facing ours, I'm always watching it at an angle.


    Agreed but some are better than others. In fact if you read the WHICH review of TV sets they particularly mention certain TVs are bad in this respect - some Sony sets are singled out.


    I have an older Panasonic that used to occupy the position in a room that the Sony now occupies, and it was far better.

    Another plus for Panasonic is the ability to switch it off. Many new tvs have to be left in standby and I know that this costs pence in electricity, but I prefer to switch off.
  • From Sunday, Aldi are selling a 40", 4k Ultra HD TV, for £299-99.
  • Asda's bananas are 20p cheaper next week !
  • Interesting enfield freddy, but hardly relevant, on a thread about 4K TVs.

    The Sony in the chart above is close to the model I have seen in Curry's. I spoke to Richer Sounds today to see if they have the Sony kd49x8309, they don't have it, I said it was in Curry's and the guy thought that this model was maybe a European one


    does anyone have any thoughts on this?
    Is it possible these tvs are the same as the other tvs but the different model number means the retailer doesn't have to compete on price or price match?.

    Quite possible indeed.

    I recently bought Samsung UE48JU6000 which was only available via one retailer in the UK at a discount price of £600 but when it was delivered I discovered it was actually the Samsung UE48JU6400 labelled on the box, costing far more across all the usual retailers! Result!! :T:T
