Default Help with New TV Choice - 11-12-2011, 09:44 | posts: 2,282 | Location: UK

Hi guys, I'm looking at the possibility of purchasing a new TV for the bedroom. Now im not really a TV expert and don't know much about them tbh so i need help in choosing.

Now i've been looking at one in particular, mainly because its been advertised on TV. But it looks good to me.

What do you TV gurus no about this one, can't seem to find any reviews on it!

A few others things i should probably throw in is that my budget is around £250 i'd say £300 is my absolute max so if anyone has any suggestions please keep it within or on £300.

Also 1080p is a must, but i think everyone knows that. I like the idea of LED back lit as i belive they consume less power. Also not sure about 60Hz or 120Hz as in is 120Hz really necessary!? I've also read that a lot of 120Hz TVs aren't TRUE 120Hz screens? Anyone care to shed any light on this?

I'll be watching a broad range of things on this screen such as documentaries, movies (Pretty much all kinds of movies not just action) sports (mostly football) and what not, so its not got to excel at one type of viewing pleasure.

If theres anymore info you want from me please ask, any help will be much appreciated as always

Cheers

Matt
