Hi team....so...here's the deal...Having cocked up in buying my very average LG 49UJ651V almost 8 years ago....which now has about 18 led back lights showing in the background, is now unwatchable... my dear Wife reminds me almost every day how our old Sony Bravia is still so much better. At least if I just go for the Sony brand there is less of a minefield.
I have read these excellent guides and have found that within my budget of €1000 in Europe the Sony 49XH9505 is still just available online. I can now get this for around €850....from Germany Amazon.. I was thinking of waiting for the Sony XJ09 but this is still around €1300....so, alot more......
What are your general thoughts please? I was going to wait until next year but our current summer room TV (LG) is now dreadful/unwatcheable. All our local TV shops are pushing the much higher price TV's and none have the Sony 49XH9505.
My gut instinct is that my current LG was a poor purchase. Fact...and that I should come back to my beloved Sony brand..........but know that things have moved on a bit...hence the reach out.....
I mainly watch 1080p, Netflix...the odd 4k film online but no Blue-ray, 3m away in a semi bright room with viewing angles maximum at 30 degrees............50" would be the max really. It turns out that we watch TV every night for at least 5 hrs.......so think I really need a good screen to look at...at least!
Thank you for your thoughts..........
