Recommend a Good Future Proofed 4K TV

Austin1

Hi Folks

Any thoughts on the above? Here is my wish list:

Not Required:
3D
Gaming
Good speakers
Curved
Anything over €2000!(Unless you can tempt me)

Important to me:
At least 55" but preferably 65"
Good refresh rate
Compatible with new Ultra HD Blu-Ray players
Plays nice with upcoming 4K streaming services on Netflix, Sky Q box etc.
Will be used mostly for movies and HD tv channels
HDR compatible
Price must include delivery to Co Laois.

I believe the 2016 Hisense range will be HDR ready - any idea on when you will have these in stock and how much they will cost?

As a repeat customer I'm sure you will include your very best prices for me ;-)

Regards

Austin

Hi Austin1, many thanks for your post.

Firstly there is the Hisense LTDN65K700 - http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201841-ltdn65k700.aspx at €1569 - these are an amazing TV at the price bracket for a 65", great picture, high refresh rate - well worth considering

Up from that, the Samsung 55JS8000 -  http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201756-ue55js8000.aspx at €1899 or Sony 55X9005 - http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201481-bravia-kd55x9005c.aspx at €1899 - both on a par with each other really, but the sony has a much higher refresh rate

In and around the €2000 mark, there is the Panasonic - TX55cx802 - http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201472-viera-tx55cx802b.aspx at €1949, or for a 60" there is the Samsung 60ju6800- http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201549-ue60ju6800.aspx at €1979

For any other 65" that isn't curved, you'd be looking at the Samsung 65JU7000 - http://euro.richersounds.ie/p-201233-ue65ju7000.aspx but its a jump up to €2599

Margins generally are very tight on TVs, but have a look at the above, and let me know if any grab your eye, and I'll see if any movement on it

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply.

Are all of the TVs you recommend HDR ready?

All of the TVs listed are UltraHD/HDR from the current range of TVs

There is a new UltraHD Premium label which has been launched to set a definite set of guidelines for HDR - see here - http://www.trustedreviews.com/opinions/hdr-tv-high-dynamic-television-explained ;

This new label will apply for the 2016 ranges of TVs 

Hope this helps
