As title suggests the family have decided to upgrade my parents old boxy 40” Sony tv to a new 55” model for Christmas.
They will be wall mounting it and watching it pretty much straight on in either a darkened room (movies) or in a room with regular ambient lighting (tv shows). Mostly they watch streaming services like Netflix, Disney+ and regular tv through a freesat box.
Their old tv is an early chunky Sony from when flatscreen tv’s first started getting popular so anything is an improvement. £500 is a hard upper limit so can’t really go over budget.
Just wondering what would be the best 55” tv for this budget? I’m worried the rest of the family will just go out and buy some awful supermarket brand tv if I don’t do some research.
