Well, thanks for detailed reply. Looks like I'll be looking for the XR50X0J then! I'm in France and prices here are consistent at €1290 at the moment and hopefully they will come down at some point. Strangely the 55" is the same price

Other than the size increase of 5" of the 55 v 50 any other differences?
Having cocked up in buying my very average LG 49UJ651V almost 8 years ago, which now has about 18 led lights showing in the background now, 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.
Cheers,
M
