I bought this last time it was on offer and although its good value for money I would not buy it again.
I would definitely pay a bit more for a better model.
The picture is nice but not brilliant and there is quite a bit of light bleed top and bottom.
The worst thing about it is the interface. Its unbelievably slooooow!
Press a button, nothing happens for quite a while, by which time you have pressed other buttons and then it all catches up with itself and goes somewhere you weren't expecting. Its so frustrating you often think that the tv has frozen or not recognised the buttons. My 10 year old LG tv has a more responsive OS than this. My other bugbear is there is no night time sound mode or level equaliser to keep the volume below a certain level. Its often either too quiet or far too loud and every app is different so its a nightmare to keep adjusting the volume up and down. Not many inputs either so if you have a soundbar and a couple of consoles you're going to need a switch.
