    I'm guessing no smart apps for that low a price?

      Turn the Linsar TV into a smart TV by connecting Google Chromecast (sold separately) for Android, or Apple TV (sold separately) for iOS to stream your subscription entertainment services straight to the TV screen from your compatible Android or iOS smartphone or tablet.

      And thank god for that. TVs at this price point have shocking smart capabilities.

        huh?

        Turn the Linsar TV into a smart TV by connecting Google Chromecast (sold separately) for Android, or Apple TV (sold separately) for iOS to stream your subscription entertainment services straight to the TV screen from your compatible Android or iOS smartphone or tablet.

        that means no the TV itself is not running any smart programs?
        if u need it to be "smart" u need to by a set-top box?

          If you want apps like Netflix, YouTube etc then yes, you need to buy a dedicated box like a Mi Box, Voda TV, Apple TV, Chromecast, Firestick…

          This TV is just a TV that gets it's signal from an aerial and beams to you "quality" shows on Freeview.

          • MasterScythe on 16/10/2020 - 10:55

            @SnowDragon: Freeview has massively picked up its game in the last 12 months.

            I used to totally agree with everyone; but I rarely come away from channel surfing without at least 1 show im willing to watch, often 2.

            Having dedicated movie channels on sbs helps too.

      • [Deactivated] on 16/10/2020 - 16:05

        So too do some TVs at the other end of the price point!!!

    Stock seems to be very limited - I just checked a bunch of stores and couldn't find one within 200km of me.

    You may be lucky, but it seems this is just a run-out price for the last 10 they have scattered around the country.

    TV is ok for causal watching.

    • jayboi on 16/10/2020 - 09:47

      Do you reckon it will be a good TV paired to a PS5? I am considering upgrading the old samsung 55" 1080p TV with a 4K TV since the PS5 is coming out and I will be getting it

      • georgev on 16/10/2020 - 09:52

        No. Asking too much from this budget TV

        • bouncybear on 16/10/2020 - 10:10

          Noob question - why wouldn't it be alright for PS5? I realise no HDR, but apart from that? What would you be looking for when in search for a PS5-suitable TV?

          • nanite on 16/10/2020 - 10:35

            @bouncybear: It can handle 4K at 60fps with my chromecast ultra. The motion smoothing isnt great. I feel its better if i set the chromecast to 4K at 50fps.

            • bouncybear on 16/10/2020 - 10:52

              @nanite: I always switch off motion smoothing on every single TV, as films and TV look unnatural to me in "hi fps".

              I wouldn't expect great colours and viewing angles, yet I'm not sure what would be wrong playing games on it. Poor darks?

              • nanite on 16/10/2020 - 12:03
                +1

                @bouncybear: Agree bouncybear, I also disable any gimmickry by the tv considering their processors.

                It has a bit of backlight bleed at the edges. You only notice it if you go looking for it. I only found those out watching a space movie in a darkened room, 5 months after the purchase.

                As mentioned, its great for casual viewing and definitely a good second TV. I use it as my primary because I'm not too fussed, and going from a HD to 4K is still a big upgrade for me.

      • TheDukeOfNukem on 16/10/2020 - 10:09

        I've used the Linsar 75" inch for gaming for a good while and PERSONALLY, I think the colors pop like crazy, really vibrant. But more than anything, the refresh rate is super noticeable, like that TV is (profanity) smooth as shit. The remasters of Uncharted 1-3, the last thing I played on it, were probably the smoothest looking frame rate I've ever had from any game.

        They're not the exact same thing so I can't reeeeeally comment, bc that one is a "smart" TV and this isn't AFAIK (though smart really means it has Netflix and YouTube, it's still very dumb otherwise), so they might not even be the same anyway, but I really thought it was a good little tele for the price.

      • hasher22 on 16/10/2020 - 11:16

        Theres only a few TV's and only 1 TV I know that is good for the PS5, and you need a HDMI 2.1 port. Its a sony model

        • MasterScythe on 20/10/2020 - 10:45

          Wait; need hdmi2.1?!

          Wow, for a while i was expecting the playstation to do quite well, but if 90% of the population also needs a new TV? Thats going to seriously dampen uptake.

          • hasher22 on 20/10/2020 - 13:22

            @MasterScythe: Yes, you need a HDMI 2.1 port. In a nutshell its better for the PS5 because of the higher bandwidth it transmit.

            Better for 4k and faster refresh rates.

            BUT…… 2.1 isn't a need. I am sure the average person wouldn't even notice.

            Plus I purchased a TV that is $1k with no 2.1 port, I had harvey norman vouchers to use but I am not willing to spend 1.7k on their tvs with 2.1 HDMI ports for a PS5 just yet.

      • lenspizza on 12/11/2020 - 20:15

        It's my only TV, and I have no issues with it for switch gaming. The blacks might not be great for games designed to "pop" with HDR though, but the colours are decent if you tune them a bit (turn down that saturation especially).

  • geek001 on 16/10/2020 - 09:50

    Anyone tried using budget UHD TVs as monitors? What is that like? Seems there are a few deals out these days where 50" UHD TVs are around 300-400 range. I am considering using the UHD TV as 4 screens to replace my current dual monitor setup.

    • namgib on 16/10/2020 - 09:55

      I am using this model now, for the previous silly cheap price.
      Works fine, clear enough for my crappy vision.

      • geek001 on 16/10/2020 - 10:48

        Thanks, I might give one ago the next time one of these cheap UHD TVs come up.

    • nanite on 16/10/2020 - 10:33

      I've been using this as my computer screen in WFH since April. Big enough to manage 2 or 4 windows side by side. MAssive improvement than having to squint at my surface pro. Having 2 windows on the same hardware is less taxing (processing-wise) on the surface pro, and I dont need a dock.

      • geek001 on 16/10/2020 - 10:52

        Thanks, have you thought about splitting the TV artificially into 4 screens using software or do you feel that working with 2 or 4 windows side by side in one gigantic screen is better?

      • ak147ak on 16/10/2020 - 11:45

        Any chance you could pots a photo of the screen with text. I am keen to purchase for WFH too.

    Wow so cheap. At this price, it is cheaper to hang this on the wall as display photo rather than printing a photo and put a proper frame on it :D. Remember the old days where they were selling 10" digital photo frame for over $300?

  • ShipShapeRC on 16/10/2020 - 12:56

    I had a big TCL 4K once as a monitor. The delay was horrible, as was the text. Sold it off asap as I did not need a big TV. Been too scared to try another since.

      Yes it's using everything that's cheap, you can buy as many of these TV's as you want can't say your getting your money's worth.

      If you cannot tell the difference between a apple or orange, I guess it doesn't really matter.

          Because both are the same, the orange is the apple, as so the the apple being the orange.

          Go get a blood test and ask your self why.

          But if all you can see is skin, then maybe that's the problem with the consumer.
