Renton 21560 Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I have to admit I was in Currys just before this shit and was amazed by the amount of TV you get for your money nowadays. I was after a new one for my kitchen, turns out a minimum size is 32 inches now. 20 years ago that was a large TV, the first few years of my marriage my wife had to put up with 15 inches (oo err). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have gone for oled but too worried about screen burn in. Seems that this model with the x1 processor and android 9 update is about as good as you can get for led at around £1100 I can u sets tans going cheaper but as I will not change for about 5 years then this ticks most of the boxes for main room.

Most can, but I’m not 100% sure the risks is worth it at those price points especially as not covered by warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21560 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 CT's a daily mail stereotype, but not the one he wants to be. He's the charva in poverty, claiming state benefits, even getting the government to pay for his weight loss schemes, yet has a massive fuck off flat screen telly. Someone should report him to the paper. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
