New TV

[jawillwill]

Can anybody recommend a good new TV? Looking for something at about 46 to 50 inches in the region of about £500-600 pounds.

Are Smart TV's the way to go, or not that important bearing in mind I have a BT Youview box for pause/rewind/record/on demand and a PS3 for Netflix.

 

Are any Smart TV's capable of playing BY Sport without a sky box?

I've got something that is 46 inches and 500 pounds.

In PC World the other day and had a look at one of them curved 4K sets.

 

Very very nice; colours popped - but not four grand nice. Looking forward to seeing these bad boys come down in price.

I've got a Samsung UE46F6800 & can recommend it, it was about £749 from JL with a 5 year wty. The 6500's are cheaper but have most of the features minus the fancy zonal backlighting? Good luck!

Unless you've got esoteric viewing habits I dont think a smart tv will give you anything you cant get through ther PS3 or BT box - although that said its hard to find a totally dumb one on the market now. Concentrate on getting a great picture and sound. A lot of people seem to overlook the basics in favour of dozens of features they'll never use. How about this? http://www.pricerunner.co.uk/pr/2-2879602/TVs/Philips-46PFL4208T-Reviews
