Does anyone know the quality of that hisense? That's not a bad price for the size

Have heared good things, but never owned one. They say it is the "best of the rest". Whatever exactly that might mean. Personally, I own a LG 47LK530.

I have a 32" Hisense LED in the bedroom - I like it. Don't know if i'd consider one in the 42+" range, perhaps I'm just fussy.

whats the biggest tv i can get if my living room is 4.5 x 4.5 in size?

Not sure what the height of the room is, but length-wise, I'd say 4.2-4.3m.
Getting the TV through the door will be a mission.

Else, in terms of calculating size based viewing distance, you can check here

opinions on this Samsung LED TV please

Depends what you're using it for? List the uses please.

It's not 100Hz. False advertising.

EH4003 means the USB port does not play videos/HD videos. Also means fewer HDMI ports. Diluted, poor menus and fewer settings.

Minimum I'd go for, depending on use, would be UA32EH5000. 5 Series = Full HD 1920x1080, and this one has a USB port that plays all media including HD.

EH5003 is subject to the same diluting - no USB media player, fewer HDMI ports, poor menu, fewer settings.

Has anybody managed to find a way to change their region on their Samsung E Series TV to get access to the US/UK smart apps?

We have such a cheap selection here in SA.

Should be;

[FF] 289 [REW]

on the remote. Dont think it will help much without a VPN, as many of the streaming services are restricted by IP geolocation.

Ya I found that info as well but it doesn't work. :( Nothing happens.

VPN isn't an issue but thanks.
