Please can someone explain what the white rectangle thing is in the image? I have seen it in other images too. Also by the looks of it, 1/3 (almost) is speakers or something...

It's a hole...

Looking for a 32 inch Full HD tv for R3,5...not really keen on Sinotec or Hisense and can't seem to find any Samsungs on offer besides HD ready. Anyone with suggestions?

Haha... I need that size though to fit in a certain area. Don't wanna spend so much on a 32...

This deal any good?

Can pretty much toss the BluRay - but how's the TV itself?

Well I'm used to the Smart hub on the old Samsung 50" Plasma, so it can't be any worse That said, I've used Smart hub for maybe 5 minutes in all the years I've owned my current set,so it's not a big issue. This doesn't seem like an amazing deal though.

I hope you aren't too used to the PQ.

Amusingly after getting frustrated with all of the nonsense "features" of the latest sets, I actually looked around online for that 60" Plasma. Out of stock everywhere. I might call around and see if any shops have one sitting around in a warehouse by chance, but it doesn't look good.

Interesting special on Takealot today:

http://www.takealot.com/samsung-60-tizen-smart-led-tv/PLID38338820

Sounds great.. 60", TIZEN, low price. Except the 60J6200 model number doesn't match up. The J6200 is by all accounts not a TIZEN TV - and searches on it show that model doesn't look anything like the picture Takealot has listed either.

Am I wrong or has takealot screwed up the listing?

 

[Lawnchairman]

That TIZEN tv is a thing of beauty but I sometimes wonder whether some posts are just plants for Takelot promotion.

 

[Jared176]

Is this a good deal?

Well this is something interesting. My 60" LG Plasma got a dead pixel (stuck on white) in the middle of the screen in month 13.
Called the agents, they came to checked it out and replaced the panel no questions. Great service, really pleased.

 

[rodga]

Great.
What model LG do you have?
