Could not take call as my father was hospitalized since last 12 days.

Presently dropped decision of getting 49 /50 inch tv and for now settling with 43 inch Full HD tv.
So need quick help in decision making...

Thanks for the pointer.

In between I have got call from nearby official tcl store to come see the 43 inch P65US model which was not available with any reputed dealers near me.

Will examine that and take my call.

Was waiting for Philips 43 inch full HD tv quote but got disappointed on getting pricing of 43 fhd model and 50 inch 4k model.

Buy the Philips 5800 series Ultra Slim Full HD LED Smart TV 43PFT5813S/94 Ultra Slim Full HD LED Smart TV

&

Buy the Philips 6000 series 4K Ultra Slim Smart LED TV 50PUT6103S/94 4K Ultra Slim Smart LED TV

So yesterday we all made up mind to go for some other reputed brand television. Now ready to shell out around 40 - 45k for 43 inch 4k led tv.

In evening visited few stores almost having Lg 43uk6360pte model in mind or Panasonic fx600/650(for vfm)

Got to know of Samsung NU7100 series.
The 43 inch samsung NU7100 felt better in PQ compared to LG 43UK6360PTE when viewing from front even angle viewing was almost on par due to some hard panel like ips. 49 inch was mixed bag as felt samsung was losing screen uniformity.
Just worried for services by samsung, read in forums that Samsung panel dead in 2 to 3 yrs and they charge heavy for parts.

In IPS panel Panasonic had good brightness
and worth considering for lesser price compared to LG.

Now just want see if Sony 43 inch 4k can come around 45k.

Till now impressed with Samsung NU7100 in 43 inches just worried for services and part availability in decent price as never ever used samsung products.

They don't make TVs nowadays with same quality standard as earlier(just like laptops). If a TV can last for 3-4 years without needing service then consider it good enough. At least try to get 3 years warranty on whichever TV model you buy.

You meant Samsung or Sony?

Panasonic usually give 2 year warranty during Diwali . As whitestar said, companies don't make products to last long anymore. Haggle and try to get discount/free extended warranty. Also you can try getting TV repaired by third party technicians when outside warranty period. Also don't buy extended warranty by third party Jeeves or Reliance Digital.

interesting .. But why?
1) No say in parts availability. If a manufacturer stops spare parts or refuses to provide, 3rd party can't do anything about it.
2) In above scenario, 3rd party will provide the option for refund after depreciation or buying from their limited channels. Flipkart for Jeeves and Reliance Stores themselves where products would be overpriced and limited options. Note: You may have an option to buy a different brand . Not sure.
3) 3rd party technicians are usually some nincompoop trained to deny you the warranty without having the ability to diagnose the root cause. Manufactures have technicians who atleast know what they are doing. Ex Panasonic sent their Senior engineer who could immediately understood and solved the issue we had with our Refrigerator.
4) Have read lots of negative reviews online.

Note: This does not mean all Manufacturers have a good after sales service, but unlike 3rd party , manufactures have an incentive to provide good service as it impacts their brand and sales.

Thanks
That samsung was my on my list earlier.
Now if at all I decide to save money then will be getting full hd from 43 inch Panasonic around 32k


The Tcl you mentioned is 55 inches but I cannot go above 50 inches.

Have seen tcl 50p65us but the viewing angles are bad, Upscaling too not up to the mark. 43 inch p65us is hardly 3k cheaper.

The sanyo looks good to me.

My bro has to examine the TVs in person before making final buying decision. May go for 49 inches too if current hdfc credit card cash back & zero cost emi scheme is available till then.

Samsung 49NU7100 just short of 50k after all discounts
Samsung 43NU7100 @41500.

Vijay sales having offers on Panasonic Fx 600 49 inch tv. 52500 quoted price for weekend and Axis Bank offer.

Finalized the size of tv 43 inches.
Panel type Ips for wide viewing and durability.
Brand : Panasonic

For my taste and eyes Panasonic FX650D was superior to LG UK 6360PTE purely in terms of Picture Quality when viewing Animal Planet HD channel.
Credits to Super bright ips panel, Hexa Croma Drive Technology and my guess Direct led with optimised backlighting.

It's 4k model and I am thinking whether it will make any difference if I choose 43 inch size for viewing distance of 8-9 feets.

Price difference is almost 8-10k for Full HD and 4k UHD models. The saved money could be used for getting Powered Sub later on.

So is it really advisable getting 43 inches 4k UHD tv for viewing distance of 8-9 feets (from tv screen to eyelevel)

Amazon price
4k models
Panasonic FX650D @42990
Panasonic FX600D @40250

Full HD model
Panasonic FS601D 31999

What will you be your content source ? Also IMO FullHD resolution above 32inch screen size is not the best but decent. If you are gonna watch SD content from say DTH, FullHD makes more sense. I would personally go for 4k option.
