Smart tv advice

[ANDY1]

Hi chaps

I am thinking of buying a smart TV for a budget upto £600 ideally a 42" or slightly above. We use alot of catch up TV do needs BBC iplayer and itv player. I was looking at Samsung TVs a they have great apps. Anyone recommend any for the budget suggested?

Go into he shops and try them out m8, for me they are all rubbish ???

[ANDY1]

What do you recommend then?? am I better buying a higher spec tv and have some sort of hub to connect upto to view bbciplayer etc??

[cromwell]

I got a usb Android 4.1 TV Dongle, so any tv is now a smart tv ? and only 30£

[ANDY1]

can you get both bbc iplayer and itv player through that??

[cromwell]

I can m8, but like all of them can get some freezing when busy.

You have totally changed my view on things now lol I might be better getting a better spec tv for the price as opposed to a intergrated smart tv hhhhmmmm

[cromwell]

I would m8, I do love Samsung and LG, but plasma or LCD aaaaaaa you can get 50" under £500 now ?

In MY opinion you cant beat Panasonic, never had a bad one, currently using their 2011 flagship 65" VT30 Smart TV!
It does all that my friend Cromwell suggests via a wireless dongle supplied with the TV mate!
So you takes your pick!
