I'm looking at this TV to go into a tight-ish (tight width ways but plenty of room below and above) recess and want to wall mount it. Does anyone have any recommendations for wall brackets please? I don't need it to tilt etc but I also don't want it to be difficult to access the rear (if i ever need to!)

It's a Vesa 300x200 fitment apparently

Thanks

I have the larger version of that TV and used this mount

No problem with access to sockets etc

Thanks gmaz. Funnily enough I looked at that one yesterday but was kinda put off by it's too-cheap(?) price, and the fact you can't always trust Amazon reviews. I expected to be paying closer to £100 for a bracket! I'll have another look at it, thanks

I’ve used a couple of these in the past which have been great - This style (similar to the previous one posted) do hold the TV very close to the wall so worth checking that there is space if you have the plug socket in the wall behind the TV.

On one of mine it was just a power cable so no issue, with the other I had to position it carefully to line up with a bit of a recess in the back of the TV so that the plug didn’t foul…

Power cord enters on the left, as you look at the back here.

Worth noting you would get an extra years warranty (6 vs 5) if you purchase from richer sounds.

Oh st. The power cord is fixed.. it’s being connected on the other side of a wall so will need a fking big hole to get the plug socket through frown

Cut plug off

Feed through hole

Fit new (wireable) plug

(or an in-line connector/junction box if you need to extend the cable length)
