    Hi,

    I'm looking for a new tv to replace our older LG one (that I bought from you guys a while back). I was reading recently that the new LG's come with a dvb/dvb-s2 tuner in them again. I didn't see any on your website with this tuner, is it possible to get LG with the sat tuner again ?

    thanks

    Hi Syboit.

    Thanks for the post.

    Pretty much all LG televisions have a satellite tuner built in which will allow you to get free to air satellite stations when connected to a satellite dish.

    What size of TV are you interested in and a rough budget and I will see what we have to offer.

    Thanks Kenny,

    I was looking at 50" and around 500-600euro range. Its mainly used for tv/freesat stuff. Do you know if the LG's have apps for playing media files over the network from a media server.

    thanks again

    Hey Syboit.

    First up would be the 50UK6750 priced at 489 Euro
    https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-203294-lg-50uk6750pld-50-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-smart-led-tv-freeview-play.aspx

    With the LG OS its pretty straight forward. Once both products are on the same network the TV will recognise it and it will show up in the input section or on the home screen.
    The link below shows how to do if from the LG website:
    http://kr.eguide.lgappstv.com/manual/w18_mr/dvb/Apps/w4.0_mr_e04/e_eng/share.html

    Next up would be a 55" the 55UK6400 priced at 549 Euro
    https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-203304-lg-55uk6400plf-55-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-smart-led-tv-freeview-play.aspx

    The Philips 50PUS6703 will also pick up free to air satellite but the smart side of things does let it down. Priced at 479 Euro (Limited Stock)
    https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-203602-philips-50pus6703-50-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-smart-led-tv-ambilight-freeview-play.aspx

    LG have a 49" the 49UM7400 coming in at 529 Euro
