Hi,
We currently have Sky HD+. We almost exclusively use it for watching the 5 terrestrial channels. We use the recording facility - and invariably never get round to watching most of the recordings. We don't watch a lot of telly in all honesty. We only have Sky as my wife likes the remote control/EPG. (So ease of use is a big factor)
We have decided to stop wasting £30 a month and ditch the Sky subscription - notice given - and switch to a Smart TV, using catchup tv instead of recording.
My research thus far has lead my to believing that Freeview Play would be our best bet - feel free to correct me!
We currently have a 32" TV and don't want to go much bigger. I went to currys where the guy kept pushing me toward a Sony 32" set but I later got out of him that Sony didn't do the ITV Player app for whatever reason so I have ruled out Sony. A bit of research has pushed me toward Panasonic due to ease of use and a full Freeview Play experience.
These two have caught my attention :
Panasonic TX-32FS503B LED HDR HD Ready 720p @ £350
Panasonic TX-40EX700B LED HDR 4K Ultra HD @ £414
Would these be suitable?
Should I be looking elsewhere?
Any advice gratefully received - I feel like i'm drowning! ;-)
