    Hi,

    Just looking for recommendations for the best 55" you currently stock. Budget is around €700.

    Will be using mainly for Netflix and Gaming and preferably with a satellite tuner (Not sure how standard these are on TVs these days!)

    Any thoughts on this one?

    Hi Ciano1,

    Thanks for the post!

    That Samsung would be a fantasticTV to go for, it has a great panel and a great smart hub. It also has a satellite tuner but it doesn't use Freesat, it has it's own EPG called TV Plus! Around that budget I think it would be one of the best 55" TVs to go for for picture and features!

    Let me know what you think!

    Kind regards

    David

    Cheers for that.

    How about if I were to stretch the budget a little bit more, do you have any TVs in stock that support HDMI 2.1 in case I want to get a PS5 or Xbox down the line. I wouldn't mind sacrificing a few inches if it was worth it.

    Thanks!

    Hi ciano1,

    Thanks for getting back to me!

    I would go with the LG 55NANO866! It has a great Nanocell panel with a native 100Hz motion processing, it also supports Dolby Vision and has 2 HDMI 2.1 inputs:
