Spotted this in the paper today.

The Akai 39.5 inch Full HD LED LCD TV provides an excellent picture for the lounge room thanks to its high contrast ratio and a wide viewing angle.

  No idea. Just posted it here to see if anyone had purchased one.
  Not many sets this size these days for a reasonable price.

    Akai is rebranded China OEM.
    
    $299 is a typical price for a 40" FHD set.
    
    If you're lucky you can get 4k 40" for about the same price.

      It is most certainly not the typical price for a yum cha 40", that would be $399. They comes down to $299 only a few times a year.
      
      I own one of these Akai 40" TVs, got it from this deal:
      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/121897?page=1
      
      It's been fantastic, I wrote a bit about the TV on that listing when I got it.

      Respectfully disagree especially for this place. If you bought a $399 dumb China TV then you bought at the top end of the price bracket.
      
      I bought 2 x 40" TVs this year, one for $225 from DSE and another china brand for $275 and it wasnt even hard. JB actually had two different Soniqs for $299.
      
      Kogan was selling a 4k $299 40" not long ago which I resisted buying since I dont need a 3rd one.
      
      This is ozbb, not ozrrp.

      @tonyjzx:
      
      Please find some links to the plethora of active deals on $299 40" TVs, it would really help rather than just respectively disagreeing - seeing as that's why your not upvoting this deal, because it's the standard price yeah?
      
      Your examples are all sales, some of which got a lot of upvotes on this site when they were listed.
      
      I know this is OZB not OZRRP, which is exactly why I'm calling you out on it.

      You really should learn to comprehend people better. I was very direct and you became very defensive and even lied about what I wrote when it's available for everyone to see - surely you can see that I never told anyone to pay $399.. just that $299 is a good, bargain price and not the RRP. Somehow you are still sticking to your guns that $299 is the RRP?

      Backing up c0balt here, as someone in the market (for the last 6 weeks) for a 40",this has been one of the better submissions on ozb. Everything has shipping costs/delays/factory second/refurb going on.
      
      $299 for a UHD 40" in store, so with reliable return policy, show me where.

  I don't know why you're being downvoted.
  
  From Wikipedia
  
  the Akai brand name is also used to rebadge electronics manufactured by other companies

Where did the half an inch go?

JB HiFi have the - Soniq E43V15B 43" Full HD LED-LCD TV (Refurbished) $335 delivered.
Not sure which one is better.

  Take a laptop with you to both places and try out some of your media.

    The Soniq is delivery only, so I don't know if this model is in store, but good idea anyway.

Picked one up yesterday after seeing it on the website. Purchased for bedroom to use with a NUC. Only used it for a few hours, but long enough for me to be content that it is perfectly suitable for my requirements. Picture is good enough. Surprisingly, so is sound. For $300 Id consider it a bargain.

Looks like a good price but if Akai is just rebranded China made TV, I also found this deal which could be a justifiable alternative: https://www.jbhifi.com.au/tv-home-entertainment/hd-televisio…
Soniq 40" HD LED LCD $349

  Why is it an alternative when it's $50 more expensive ?

  "… China made TV,"
  like china made iPhones, e t c
  
  If you don't want Made In China, you're pretty limited.

    that's why we need to support the Australian TV manufacturing industry.

      You'll need to loan us the Delorean, altomic.
      
      My Aussie-made valve TV is starting to fail, and I want to go back and get myself a replacement.
