    That seems way too cheap for 4K - shakes head in shock and disbelief - only a year ago a 4K Sony was about £3000

    Yep - seems suspiciously cheap. At the risk of sounding like a sinophobe - the sets are probably made in China, so their reliability will be questionable. (I have had a string of 'region free' DVD players, all made in China, and all have developed fatal problems after 18 months. Now have a Toshiba and it seems to be holding up.)

    Thought it was cheap too. I guess there will be a huge queue so get up early if you want one. No use to me.

    So that means problems are likely to arise after 40 months.

    Hard to say what the reliability will be. Tvs are usually pretty good but itll depend on the changes in tech. The boy had one of theirs for quite somm time and it was good
