Along_the_Wire Sony is not at the races at all.

In what way? More details please. I have to say, knowing their build quality is a bit better and that I might get a few more years out of it does appeal at the moment.

    Amps they’re behind in tech and they’re lumpy both financially and physically. I used to love Sony TVs, but they’ve been asleep at the wheel for some time

      How often do you lot change TVs? I’m on my third in 20 years.

        Homegrove The last time I bought a tv was 6 years ago. Before that, 2011. I still have the one from 2011, but it’s small in comparison to what’s out there now (32inch), so that’s in my bedroom and my bigger, newer TV is the one I use most often.

        Every 5 to 7 years I’d guess. When I bought my OLED I moved the Panasonic plasma that had been downstairs into my dj/gaming room.

        Couldn’t help but read this in the voice of Partridge 😆 . You are right though, I think it mostly boils down to the fact that they’re reliant on other companies for the panels.

        https://www.rtings.com/tv and the TV geek forum on https://www.avforums.com are both good places to do some research.

        BF (RIP) would have been all over this thread!

          Personally think the Samsungs look the absolute nuts

          In the market for a 50″(ish) TV. No gaming. Just streaming, sport and playing .mp4 files

          Any recommendations please?

            You can’t go wrong with any of the latest offerings from LG or Samsung.

            Has anyone gone in for a TV with two tuners, where you can record straight to a USB in the back whilst watching another channel? Or does everyone just use catch up services?

              Got a virgin TiVo box which can record and can watch multiple channels at the same time.
