On paper seems like a great deal. I know 4k is miles away and the standard seems undecided as yet... But might be good for youtube 4k films already. pc gaming also.
We have a 6 yr old panny plasma.. Is pretty good but clear getting on now. Is the PQ of this newer model at least as good for regular sd viewing? Cheers

I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago. They were £400 in sainsburys. They may still have some.

I've no idea how it compares spec-wise to other 4k TVs but it looks good to my eyes. Works well with iPlayer and Netflix too. At 400 quid I can't complain.

Looks good to me. Although I did have a pretty old early HD flat screen.

Had one for a few months now - picture amazing for the price. Netflix especially crisp along with 720 streaming from my PC through Apple TV. Paid £490 is from Amazon though Richer Sounds were very similar at the time.
