Hi anyone have one of these and able to make a recommendation or not? Looking for a FHD or better 45"+ TV for the Bach for watching rugby and playing games and bluray on my ps4 for about 3 weeks a year. Weight is a factor. It's 600 on special today. LG have a heavier FHD 49 inch for 720 as well.

 I have just bought one for my dad. Took a few files in on a USB stick to see what it could play back. Ok with large 720p episodes of TGT and 50FPS WRC coverage. It did fail to play the Top Gear Polar special but that's an old file. I have also bought other toys but I might get a chance to plug it in tonight before I give it to day tomorrow to have a better look - but I wouldn't hold my breath....

 

 

 

Picture quality seemed average, remote was basic. Nice enough looking small bezel - very thick/deep for a modern TV but Meh.

 

 

 

Cheers -N

No idea. Dad needs a TV that will play files I give him on a USB stick and will work with Sky digital. If it does that then it's a win. Is there a very easy way to test?
