Along_the_Wire 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
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
vinnyt77 get him involved Vin!
mono-stereo I will give him a nudge next time we see him.
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.
SM001 Nothing but love for our 55″ LG OLED CX. Coupla years old now, but still excellent. LG are continuing to improve the o/s as well.
Don’t think there’s much of a difference between the 2020 (CX) and 2021 (C1) models, so you could save yourself a few notes if you can track down last year’s…

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?
I know what you mean. A friend told me to get a fully loaded firestick off eBay. But can’t be asked.
When I binned of Sky, it bugged me that I couldn’t record or pause live terrestrial TV, but after a few weeks, I didn’t give a shit - I’d just never use that function.
