no freeview play . so may not have ITV HUB/ALL4.apps

Yes. Also many people prefer the central pillar stand on the NU7400 rather than the wider legs on the NU7100.

Is that the 7400? Thanks for the reply.

Yes, Free M7500 Blu-ray. Should really be a separate deal but happy if it adds heat to this deal.

Better colours and brightness. Bluetooth included means you audio get a smart remote. Also smart operating system is compatible with Smart things.

With a free bluray player as well,not a bad deal

£40 off with code BF40

I’ll expire

Nah. The code's expired. Was a good price though

Sorry the CODE was PRESENTS to get the £344 price. Not sure if it's still working.

Does that work for the 1tb version too

Yeah definitely best to wait for them, very good chance that along with 4k streaming they could be compatible with the standard sky q lnb's so maybe have the option to record more than two channels at once.

Yes

Seems to support viewing Netflix in HD too. https://help.netflix.com/en/node/26133

Is channel 4hd still removed from Freesat?

Hughes electrical .

Who did they price match for that?

Got mine for £1025 from John Lewis.....was delivered yesterday on first impressions well pleased.

Got mine yesterday for £989 at Crampton & Moore as RGB only had a years warranty at the time.

Post away, I really want to but this TV so any input is helpful, another post for less creates more opinions (y)

What's the tv like? Worth the £519 price mark?

I have recently just Bought this tv from Richer sounds they offer a 6 year parts & Labour guarantee with collection and temporary tv while yours is being repaired. I paid £519, what i've been told is some people who offer 5 year guarantee the first 12 months is parts and labour then it's just parts meaning you pay for labour, make sure you check the smallprint.

I don’t know yet but I’ve done the research. The issues seem to be software based and I’ll be using a Nvdia shield with it anyway. Also Phillips are releasing an update next month I think.

Dude, the 50PUS7383 is the 7 series on ao.com. You’re getting so much more for your money for additional £70.

I know this wasnt the tv you were recommending but this review hooked me. I also cant work out what p5 is so i'm going for the one reviewed in the link you provided. Found it for £380 on AO.com ;)

Hi Dave. Yes - I I have got tempted by the Amazon warehouse discounts and got a 6300 for £265 and I've ordered a universal centre stand for £15 from ebay. It was supposed to be like new, but It has a small mark on the screen, but isn't noticeable from a distance, warehouse deals are hit and miss, but the discount from £330 is so good I think I'll keep it. I've set it up with Alexa to turn off/change channels/volume which is quite cool, and there is a good app for TV control too; Bluetooth works well for headphones. I was going to get a magic remote for it but I don't think I'll bother. The Picture and features are amazing (I'm upgrading from an old sony HD TV) for the price and I'd recommend it, but if you are interested in the magic remote maybe pay a bit more and get the LG6950, still 399 at Currys and metal rather than plastic build and comes with the magic remote that does voice commands etc..

Have you bought a tv yet? I’ve been looking at the exact same tv’s as you and looking for the best deal TIA

The 6400 looks good and has a great crescent stand but Which? review said the picture wasn't great and gave it a lower mark (62) than the Lg 6300 which got 68 per cent, but has the terrible little leg stand. It won't fit on my unit, I'm hoping the LG 6950 at Currys will come down from £399. It has a metal chassis, crescent stand and magic remote, gets 68 per cent which review too. But I think if you don't mind the legs the 6300 is a good buy,and you can add a magic remote for £40 if you hate the cheap remote that comes with the TV. Similar price on Box.co.uk, I wonder if it might go even cheaper.

I hear what your saying but as a reserve/ready remote for the next time one of my kids has destroyed the remote it will do me

Maybe and am sure your right with lots of things, when it comes to electronics though no brand plus cheap price often means dodgy Chinese knock offs...

Note:According to the production series,some products have no logo printed on them but all components and features are the same. Just missing the sticker

Lots of reviews are sating its a fake unbranded copy...

It's still showing available at £7.65 for me, unexpired.

This channel is now on HD on Freesat - 11509 V 23000. On my box the channel name came up as &tv HD when I searched, but I think it varies depending on equipment. Some users are reporting problems with sound, but mine seems fine.

Isn't this the love child or technical leftovers from Setanta sports after they went bust?

Looks like they may have the return of Andy Murray next week at the ATP250 :D http://www.andymurray.com/news/andy-murray-chooses-rosmalen/ 11 - 17 juni 2018 Autotron Rosmalen http://libema-open.nl/en/players/gentlemen/

Although its a sd channel on freeview you need a freeview HD box or freeview hd tv that to get channel. Your tv or box will not even pick it up if it is not hd enabled. Having said that there are still some areas that the channel is not yet available even if you have freeview hd.

Is he single now? He was seeing that one woman for a few years, last time I heard he was thinking of proposing

Thanks! in the meantime I figured out they swapped brightness and contrast (at least in the French translation). Bottomline in HDR contrast slider turned all the way up (for luminosity) and luminosity (for contrast) set in somewhere in the 30-50 range. This gives me oled blacks on both Netflix and Prime. On both however I still have the 1px flashing line on the bottom, very annoying - do you also have that very same issue? I also found some users had that issues on LG OLEDs with the Shield in the past - a firmware updated pushed by LG solved that but not sure we can count on that for rebranded sets...

I'm not sure if it really is a solution, but similar to you I changed the settings manually. It's not too bad when you get used to it. It's a shame because Amazon Prime is now giving 4k on Prime and it looks amazing. Jet black would be even better!

Sorry to revive that long dead thread - jimbobaggins would you mind sharing your solution for solving the Shield issue? have tried pretty much everything I could think off and found only partial solution (h2020@24Hz seems acceptable). Thanks!

I've got to the point now that I just leave it flashing, wait a minute and if it doesn't turn back on, head to bed!

Same. I press the power button on the remote, the first time it flashes in the corner then after three flashes I press it again and it goes off, turning off the connected devices with it. 99% of the time it's fine, but it does occasionally come back on!

Sure I will do mate.

If you ever see it happen before I do, please ping me. I’ll do the same with you :D

Cheers, seemed a bit of a gimmick like 3d. Would the UE65MU8000 be a better option

Curved tvs haven't taken off the way tv producer's had hoped too many viewing problems with them ,flat screen tvs is the way to go

By the way its has a 10 bit panel, and can do 120 hz. Meaning that judder should be non-existent.

Just ordered this @£769 6 days ago, doesn't look like the football shirt is on the list of approved TV's (NU8000 and Q7)

Best I've seen it for was £699 a while ago and not for long too. It is does a 10 bit panel and can display true HDR so maybe production costs are higher and profit margins smaller.

Same haven't really seen the kind of price drops I was hopeing for during this years transition.

Given that the NU series is already out on the market, I expected bigger discounts on this TV...

Can anyone help? I am trying to determine if my TV is faulty or if it is simply a design limitation in this model. I am having issues with the aspect ratio when watching most 3D content in that it seems to stretch the image vertically to fill the entire screen, i.e. ignoring the aspect ratio, and it does not seem possible to change the aspect ratio at all. Questions 1. When watching any 3D content, can you alter the aspect ratio, i.e cycle through any of auto, 16:9, 4:3, zoom? If so what sources are you using? (USB stick with files, Blu-ray, PS3/PS4 etc). 2. When using 2D to 3D conversion i.e, just broadcast TV such as channel 4/5, can you change the aspect ratio at all when in 3D? I can change aspect ratio in 2D, but not when it is being converted to 3D. 3. Are you able to change the aspect ratio when watching Amazon prime using the built in Panasonic app? 4. Are you able to activate 2D to 3D conversion when watching content in amazon prime video? Thanks for any help on this.

No. There isn't a proper market for em.

wait most likely it will go up but if it doesn't call it bad luck as it counts as bonus. ...

Has anyone's Curry Quidco tracked at the correct level? Mine is still at £7.50.

Are they making 3d TVs again then?

Yeah...I was a bit sad that my local Mapins only had the 500GB version...but consoled myself that I can fit a 2TB HDD sometime down the line. Been using mine a couple of days and so far so good, registered for the 2 year warranty online no problem.

It's easy to upgrade these to an AV 2Tb drive... Seagate video drives or Western Digital drives are the best

Got one of these recently and it is very slick. The only caveat is that the DNS settings seem to be locked down and I can't get the box to connect to a VPN for US Netflix...

Big thanks OP. We bought one of the very first Humax Freesat Recorder boxes when the very first came out (Dec 2008??). Ten years (and several new remotes) later it's still going strong but I'm increasingly aware that sooner or later it's going to conk out on us and I've been looking for another one, at a decent price, for ages. We were in the pub when I read your post. I couldn't find the 1TB version close to me but Maplin in Basingstoke had one 500GB version in stock. So off we trot and yes, they do indeed have one last one on the shelf for £139.99. However the sign says £139.99 for the 1TB version which was incorrect, so they give my an extra 10% off. Bargain!! They said this was because it was an 'open box' item but it looks pristine to my eyes!

Now at 132 15/16 days 28 sold that's <2 a day now.

160 today, 18/19 days and 36 since my last update or ~2 a day. they may still have some end of Sept at this rate.

Another ten sold @899£, now 186 left. Daily rate down to less than two. Amazed that anyone is buying at this price!

another update still @ £899 count date change and daily rate 474 19 April 444 23 April 30, 7 388 30 April, 56, 8 365 7 May, 23, 3 325 16 May, 40, 4 264 29 May, 61, 5 217 8 June, 47, 5 196 15 June, 21, 3

I disagree with this generalisation after I upgraded my panasonic to Samsung mu7000. My 40w soundbar is louder than panasonic, but mu7000 is way louder than my soundbar

I haven't voted. Would be good to have a demo of the TV. Android is usually pretty terrible. And I wonder what things they've put in place to prevent/reduce the chance of image retention/burn in.

It seems like a bit of a deal to me anyway (shock)

ElectriQ and 1 year warranty.

Why's this going cold then?

I’ve not heard of this brand

I have Freeview but can’t view FreeSports? You will need a DVB-T2 compatible device (i.e. Freeview HD via TV or set top box, Freeview Play, YouView or EE TV box). I have a Freeview a DVB-T2 compatible device but still can’t access FreeSports? FreeSports is delivered in the UK via transmitters that cover approximately 75% of the country. This means that some areas which are often less populated will not be able to receive the channel despite you having a DVB-T2 compatible device. If you receive BBC Four HD on channel 106, or 4Seven HD on channel 110 you should be able to view FreeSports on channel 95. You can check if you should be getting the coverage here by entering your address: https://www.freeview.co.uk/channels-at-your-address or call the Freeview advice line on 03456 505050. The Freeview coverage checker gives a good indication of whether you’ll be able to receive FreeSports. Most Freeview boxes will have been retuned automatically to receive FreeSports during a scheduled auto update but you can carry out a retune and see if the channel appears. When you buy a Freeview HD TV or other equipment, we recommend that you make sure that you can get a refund from your retailer if these local factors or lack of transmitter signal for channels you want to view prevents you from receiving Freeview and or FreeSports.

Oh well,thanks

Freesports is only available from certain transmitters (something like 75% coverage of UK) and a Freeview HD compatible box is needed as well (it is transmitted in standard definition on the COM 8 HD multiplex) so a retune may not work.

Just tried to do ch 95 on freeview,didn’t work,perhaps I have to retune?

I checked this 90 minutes too late, just listened on Radio Ulster lol GAWA

Started with normal SKY and updated to Q, the engineer changed the dish, so presume I have the wrong LNB. Thanks for your help

Two questions - did you start with ordinary Sky or Sky Q? If you started with Sky Q you would almost certainly have the "wrong" LNB. If you started with normal Sky then changed to Q, did they change the dish and LNB? If they did then you would have the "wrong" LNB, if they did not then you would have the "right" LNB. To be honest, if you can access the dish then changing the LNB should be a doddle, the LNB should be fitted at a 15% skew but apart from that everything else should be set up. If you cannot do it yourself it should not be too expensive to get it done by an independent engineer.

It'll have likely 6 or 8 feeds, but no identifiers etc. Contact Sky saying their install borked your freesat box and you want it rectifying.

Damn, didn’t know this, didn’t ask for one, but is there any way of identifying if the engineer fitted one? No freesat box for me then, glad I read the comments before purchasing!!

Makes sense, would save money on costly TV transmitters and satellites. It's not really feesable for the BBC just yet, not everyone has the internet and open reaches speed is so low for some it wouldn't work, maybe a 4g or 5g IPTV box is the way forward.

This deal has now expired - still a decent price for the best Freesat box going. Mine has been used daily with zero problems.

BASKET10 worked up to last week, it doesn't now. For info only.

Should be possible to watch 4 HD like this if you can put up with no EPG and fiddling.

Because of the 4HD together with their catch-up app being withdrawn, after many a year with my Humax Freesat PVR, I've just bought instead the FREEVIEW PLAY RECORDER FVP-4000T 500GB - MOCHA (REFURBISHED).

Really happy with my purchase. I love the "this channel is available in HD, press OK to watch" which was a bug bare of mine on Virgin and Sky. Picture quality is much better than my old Sky HD+ box, I'm impressed.

£899 at co-op using CTV50 code... cold for fake 4k panel at this price anyway

£1000 and it can't even show a 4k image
