What TV to buy..

smallzoo2

That's the trouble with TV's I guess ..we are going from a 5 year old TV which has been brilliant to choosing a decent TV for our budget and room...and the fact if I buy a U8N at £1200 it will come with a 5 year warranty so last

My last two TV's have been Sony models and I find the brand excellent.

This is the TV we have now as a comparison 

Techwood 55AO2USB 4k TV

55 in, LED, 2160p (4K UHD), 3D, Wi-Fi 529.
Video Format .
2160p (4K UHD) Resolution.D

Digital-TV Yes (DVB-T2).

So compares to our last TV  and for a much lower budget what would this one be like ?

TCL PF650K 65"

It's got very good reviews as a 65" for the average user and less than £500 ?

Not experienced it personally, but reviews are generally kind...It seems to be a 'Fire' TV with amazons OS. An alternative for just a little more could be TCL 65C655K | 65 inch QLED 4K Ultra HD HDR Smart TV | Richer Sounds Which has Google TV as the OS....
To be honest you should see a major difference in the picture quality over the Techwood whichever you choose.

Thanks a lot. We would push the budget to maybe £750 if it would make a bit difference

I was in Richer Sounds a few months ago and one of the helpful staff told me the best time to shop if you want a bargain is during the New Year sales, which I suppose is obvious, but also around April when new stock arrives and the older models are discounted.

It makes sense to wait of course but our TV is pretty bad so can't...thanks anyway

Yes, it would.

Look at it this order: OLED, Mini LED, Full Array Local Dimming...the rest. Ignore all the fancy descriptions and look for those things if you are looking for a bright screen,
For £750 you can get a Mini-LED. TCL don't have Freeview Play.

Not sure if Richer Sounds has any in stock.

Not recommendations, but rather choosing on specification.
