Many of these televisions demonstratethat theydon’t need to
excel at everything in order to be aworthwhile buy.The Hisense
R50B7120UK, forinstance,has narrowviewing angles and HDR
implementation that might as well not be there; however,at£299
it’s so cheap,has such auser-friendly operating systemand has
such lowinput lag that these flaws don’t come anywhere close to
killing its appeal. As long as you can angle it right when you put it in
your living room, it’s abrilliant budget option.
The Sony KD-65XG9505 also makes agood argument forwhy you
don’t need to go down the OLEDrouteifyou’re spending over
£1,000. Combining great-looking HDR and some of the best motion-
processing on the market, it’s avery good LCDscreen indeed.
