fizzbitt Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Found this one so far which ticks all the boxes but before purchasing it i thought id ask the masses if im missing anything obvious. Samsung UE42F5500 | 42 inch LED TV 1080p HD Ready Freeview HD | Richer Sounds Buying it for my parents and my mum likes to think she knows about technology and wanted a 'smart TV' so she was do things connected to the net with it such as youtube. Also my bro has a PS3 (will be getting a PS4) which will be hooked up to it as well. 5 year warranty there and i think its the same price as John Lewis where i got my own TV from about 3 years ago. Any alternatives? Cheers Fizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Bangle Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 For that budget, I doubt you'll find a better Smart TV with a 5 year warranty + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Looks good to me, bargain at that price. One thing I wish i'd made sure my TV had in retrospect is YouTube connectivity. With the seeming demise of Top Gear and pretty much any other motoring related shows that aren't about finding old wrecks and restoring them (we seem to get about two episodes of TG or 5th a year now), on-line channels such as Drive and that one TDK does stuff for who I can't remember, seem to be filling the gap, and i'd much rather watch them on my TV in HD than on my phone. Yes I could use the PS3 or the Wii or any one of the other devices connected to the TV, but I can't be arsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fizzbitt Posted June 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 That's a fair point Tipex, there is only so many times you can watch another Dave rerun of top gear. I did think this seemed a good buy so glad others think so too before I buy it. + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waylander Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Late to the party but I think the Samsungs are an excellent choice for LEDs Fizz. I decided on a plasma so went for a Panny otherwise would have got a Sammy too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
