Been looking for a new smart TV. Current TV is hisense and around 7 years old. We mostly use Netflix on the tv so ideally it would be able to have a built in app. We currently use Chromecast.
I've been waiting for some deals and missed the latest LG one. Originally had a budget of $1000 but think this may be a bit unrealistic? Can anyone recommend particular brands or models which may fit the bill. Probably not a Soniq or the like, as I hear their smart TV functions are not great.
If i'm being overly optimistic for something in that price range, be good to know that as well. Thanks in advance.
I think the price range is fine. I had the exact same requirements as you (basically, the biggest / best 4k TV I could get for under $1000). Ended up with a 58" Hisense Series 5 for $931 shipped.
Pretty sure if you search the current 20% of selected tech stores (ie use the link that lets you search all the participating stores on ebay) and search for TVs there you should easily find something for under $1000 after the code is applied.
Edit: as an example, both of these should be in budget, after discount
