            @[Deactivated]: But I didn't, I'm intrigued why people want to pay hundreds or thousands more for a TV in their home with a terrible UI to force intrusive advertising and report viewing habits back to the manufacturer.

                @devize: Based on the neg votes, >90% of OzB users want to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars to watch advertisements customized to them on hardware that'll be in landfill in under 5 years, then to repeat the whole cycle.

                I'm obviously the minority not wanting to be spammed with any ads while looking for bargains.

    Having sold TVs for a long time… I prefer a dumb TV with a chromecast…

    No useless vendor specific apps that get removed down the track anyway, no slow or janky UIs.

    • Originality on 27/12/2018 - 13:47

      So you'd recommend this over the alternative that's like 449 or something but is a smart tv?

      • isybub on 27/12/2018 - 14:06

        100% dude. The cheaper smart TVs are aggravating to say the least. Incredibly slow load times, broken firmware, useless bloatware.
        A Chromecast will do everything you need, and in a decent way (casting to the Chromecast can turn on the TV and change the channel etc) and loads way faster.

        • Originality on 27/12/2018 - 14:08

          Ok cool. I have a regular v2 chromecast I got forever ago for like $19 so I'll buy this tv and finally use it.
          Thanks :)

            @Originality: Agree, a lot of the software is really slow on some Kogan TV's. I've got a 55" KALED55MU8010SZ and though originally I only bought it for the 6 star energy rating I thought that having Freeview would also be cool. I've had it for a couple of months now and really happy with the TV in general and the price I got at the time, but the load times, browsing and ad breaks on Freeview on this tv is really crap. Have tried a reload of the software also. No biggie tho as I said I'm happy with the TV and the media box I set up myself to compliment it. You'll probably also need a soundbar or some sort of external speakers tho, depending on your audio preferences.

            • Originality on 27/12/2018 - 17:32

              @LikeMike: Thanks.
              I got the Kogan 2.1 Detachable Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer set with the TV which came to something like $95.20
              So I am hoping it does the job

        Does it make any sense to spend nearly $400 on a high-spec soundbar for a TV you bought for just over $400?

        • spaceflight on 28/12/2018 - 18:09

          That's up to you.

          If buying a cheap TV + sound bar + chromecast/fire/fetch is cheaper than an expensive smart TV then it makes sense.

      I got my soundbar from Cash Converters for dirt cheap. Cashies don't do any good deals with their TV's but many have great prices for sound bars or external speaker setups.

    It can be slightly cheaper to buy this from their eBay store depending on where you want it shipped.

    On kogan.com:

    Kogan 50" 4K HDR LED TV (Series 8 JU8100): $389
    Delivery to [my postcode]: $53.27
    Total: $442.27

    On ebay.com.au:

    Kogan 50" 4K HDR LED TV (Series 8 JU8100): $435.68
    Postage: $47.61
    Voucher/coupon PRIZE: -$43.57
    Total: $439.72

    Now I need to decide where to spend my extra $2.55.

    I got one a few weeks ago. I have a 5 year old Samsung 60inch led tv in the loungroom and wanted a cheap tv for my room. Picture and colour look great to me, better than my Samsung. However small complaint middle top of tv near the bezel I can see some light bleed. Not noticeable if it's full screen movie but with movie with black bars at top and bottom can slightly see it. Cbf returning though as wasn't expecting amazing tv for the price. From my experience I feel fast to start up and find my connected hard drive. Only use it to watch movies, might add a Nvidia shield soon. I'd say worth $389…got mine in the last free ship deal. Oh tv speakers are crap but I got that cheap kogan sound bar too which I'm super happy with, sub not required in my room.
