I have the Lenovo Tab (it's a great Tablet) but you can pick that up way cheaper in Argos and Amazon - I got mine for under €120 about 6 months ago.

Anyone any idea what model the LG TV is? Just says 43" with very little additional info.

The Hoover is cheaper on Littlewoods.ie

Littlewoods are an absolute shambles to deal with if something goes wrong.

Looked up reviews of the hoover, looks decent.

Is it fully able to stream 1080p tv shows and Netflix etc? Chromecast and all that?

Can't see it on argos or amazon for cheaper. How long ago was it?

I bought that Vivofit tracker in Lidl Slaney Road for 29.99 a month ago, 49.99 is a ripoff price.

Hate that in advertising.

Why don't they tell us the model number?

Serious price on an LG 43"

Prob only a half a TV per store

Its an OK deal, but not worth queing up for. LG tv's seem to be in sales all over the place for the past year or so.

Picked up a 49" LG 4K UHD Smart for €449 this time last year which actually makes this 43" (without Smart or 4K) for €329 actually look kinda expensive.

What are the UHD TV's like with an SD picture?

It could have been January of this year now that I think about it.

It's like €100 more on Argos at the minute if I'm looking at the same one?

How many of these are they likely to have on stock? I assume you'd have to be queueing up before 8 to have a chance of getting one?

I have that tablet too- if memory serves there's a few different versions of it - main difference was the screen if I remember correct. If that has the HD screen that's a decent price for a great tablet

Wouldnt go near a tv that isnt a smart tv anymore

That tablet should be avoided too. The Lenovo Tab 3 10.1 is widely available for €140. Tab2 was released June'15, poor stuff from Lidl.

sleepysniper

Screen resolution seems to be lower on the Tab 3 according to the specs listed on Amazon... Unless I'm missing something?

Edit: The Tab 3 Plus has the higher resolution than the standard Tab 3 but is also €90 extra.

Why? A non-smart TV coupled with an Nvidia Shield would be all you could ever need.

Yeah if your going down that road for more of an entertainment system, but thats different and not everyone will want or have the know how for that set up. I use a fire stick for my entertainment and it works out well.

But for a tv, the handiness of having some apps available, like RTE etc for the player, and then the option to have netflix (if you subscribe) and YouTube all at the click of a button. Its extremely handy.

The picture and sound from these LG tvs are very good, only 2 hdmi inputs, sometimes they have a Sat tuner built in so if you have a satellite dish, you can get FTA channels without an extra box (not sure with this one as no model number)

For 350 euros, it's an excellent television if you don't care about smart features, it will last a lot longer than some no brand turkish tv

We have an elderly person in our family who needs a new tv and We'll get this for her (if we're able to). She doesn't need smart features, they'd only confuse her anyway.

Well, if she's confused by the smart features, she'll definitely be confused trying to switch between the Satellite and Terrestrial tuners on an LG tv (if it's equipped with both).

Any feedback on the camera for the price?

It's a 43lj515v, I bought it when Lidl had it in at €400. Argos have the smart version on sale now for less than €400, model is 43lj594v.
Tbh I'd avoid it and throw an extra €100 and get a decent TV with 4k and smart features.

poeticmakaveli

Euronics are selling a smart 43' LG TV for the same price on Friday too..not sure if it's 4k but definitely a smart TV!

frosty123

Whats the TV like picture wise?

Very good for the price. Cheapest I've found it is €220 in Argos, with the case free. Case normally sells for €25-38 on it's own AFAIK.

Camera seems to be c.€250 in most places so €150 is a steal.

Hoping to pick one up myself but not holding out much hope TBH.

Can't comment on the quality of the camera but seems to be a decent bridge model with a huge zoom & iamge stabilisation.

JustAMoment121

Did anyone get one of these? It's not easy to tell but it seems that it's not a smart TV.

We have a setup with Saorview and satellite cables, somebody mentioned that it's very difficult to switch over from satellite to terrestrial channels - is it that bad? The manual on the LG website has little info

Last year they only had a few of each item - the more expensive the item, the less they had.

Id say get there for 7.30 if you want it - they probably only have 3-5 of them.

Although I got this one on Amazon for 100 pounds last year and its been great:

I bought it based on reviews.

swords (dub.rd. branch) had 3 of the e149.99 tabs. in stock @11 am this morn. & none of the e59.99 tabs.

dowtchaboy

Just visited lidl Youghal Sat afternoon- didn't want anything from the list of stuff - but I note they had a LOT that didn't sell. None of it was on display. Manager told me the small tablet was cancelled or at least he wasn't getting any. He said they one LG TV left in the store and a few of the large tablet. But as I say they had signs up for about 10 items from Friday and Saturday still for sale.

Wondering if the true wireless heaphones will be any good.

I have a couple of Plantronices M90 I use at the moment. For podcasts as opposed to music.
