TL;DR - Buying our first OLED TV, torn between a clearance 55" Panasonic HZ1500, a 55" LG CX6 and a new 55" LG A1. Which would you buy?
Hi all, first time posting here! I need your help. My partner and I just bought a new house and are upgrading to a 55" OLED TV. I work at Currys (not in sales) and I'm fortunate enough to have these exclusive deals to choose from...
I was recommended the LG A1 by the store colleagues, and was impressed by the demo. I really like the look, the OS and the Magic Remote on the it, and the fact it's 60hz apparently won't affect me because I'm not gaming on it.
The LG CX6 appears to be just a generally better TV than the A1, only with last year's magic remote and software etc. It seems like a better deal considering it's only £30 more than the A1, but I've also been advised to get newer models when possible.
On the other hand, from a technical standpoint the Panasoic HZ1500 seems to be the superior model, and was definitely the more expensive option before being on clearance, so it looks like the better deal. However, because it's boxed up and old stock, I've not seen the TV on display or a demo, and the store colleagues were unable to advise me about it, so I'm a little hesitant.
Do you own either TV, or can you offer any advice to help me decide? All comments, opinions and suggestions are welcome.
Thank you for reading and helping me!
