Too many options, which TV to get

PhireSide said:
Rtings.com is a good place to start.

Unfortunately the TV's are normally not available in all markets, but it could be a useful base for comparison.

Been around that block ... I find their rating system and all the tests don't give a clear "side-by-side" comparison (for me in any case).

That being said, I think I am leaning towards the LG ... the other 3 LGs in the house haven't let me down
 
These seems to be my options. Still need to get a TV license but will see if it can be done online. Unless someone who bought the Amazon Hisense 4K for R3000 thinking of selling one to me. Thank you.

Any thoughts? Wont have money now for a Soundbar so TV must be at least okayish with sound till I can get a 5.1 bluetooth soundbar.

Brighter the TV the better as well as the room gets a lot of light.

Cheers!

Rather connect the soundbar using hdmi or optical, bluetooth will not give decent sound. TV speakers can range from crap to decent enough, out of those 4 they will probably all just fit into acceptable.

Yeah the Bloutooth is for between the speakers I think, less cables.

We've never had a TV. Don't really have friends. But someone did offer to allow me use their ID/TV license, but problem might come with warranty or returns if they request ID/License proof. I'll just get one, whatever. THe ANC needs money.

I highly doubt any retailer cares about the license thing once they've made the sale, it's forced upon them by government and it hampers their sales, they will do the absolute minimum to comply with the law

but yes, absolutely, get your TV license, "it is the right thing to do" :X3:

Warranty and TV licence/ID wont affect anything, as long as you have POP/Receipt you can claim warranty.

Don't know that brand and how they compare to Hisense, but reasonable price. See they only have stock in Bloem though. Apparently the sound is pretty bad.
