4k tv for my room

[Myles Rowlands]

I need a 4k TV for my bedroom around 40" as my room is quite big. I may use this with my pc (not to game) and It will mainly be used for watching blue ray and watching tv with my sky box!
I was looking at the 4k seiki 39" and wanted to know what you guys will say. Oh and the cheaper the better xD

Long link, I know, and I'm not even sure it'll work, but this shows that at that price range, these are your only options (at least on Newegg). I'd check out a big retailer like Wal-Mart as well. They often have better deals than online.

Out of those two which one do you think is better?

I wouldn't get Seiki if you're planning to game on it at some point, they're only capable of 4k@30Hz. Sometimes too cheap is bad

Depends...

Changhong - The Changhong has worse contrast ratio, colors and response time, but has better speakers, more ports and is 3" larger. They're both only capable of 30Hz at 4K. It's up to you.

I just saw that seiki are making new 4k monitors.. Should I wait and get that?

If you're going to invest in something like a 4K monitor, I'd highly recommend going for a brand you trust. Cheap TV's and monitors have a pretty bad reputation for going out shortly after the warranty expires (because they know that's how long it'll last). Even though you'll spend less initially, you'll end up spending more by having to replace your broken one.

Yeah, like I said, sometimes too cheap means bad things. So I go for the most popular brands that has good customer service. Although I did go with a brand that has very bad customer service reputation but they do make very good TV, I was kinda forced to get it since no one else has the thing I needed

@Lone and what TV did you end up with?

I bought the Panasonic AX800, which is like a LED/Plasma Hybrid since plasma can't get up to 4k, so they kinda combined them. It is lower in price now, I bought it for $2,500.

The TV you have is a bit too much for me how about this one? http/www.amazon.co.uk/LG-40UB800V-40--inch-Ultra/dp/B00NIIS8L4/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1421789985&sr=8-2&keywords=40%22+4k+tv

That one is not too bad in specs, but the reviews used to be like 2-3 stars, I guess they fixed something. I was going to suggest it earlier but it had bad reviews so I didn't want to. Also those stands, the 4 legs doesn't look very promising, unless you wall mount it, then nevermind. You could read some reviews and see what different people say if you want.

That's pretty huge! That's a decent model and has a great price though. OP, that LG monitor will suit your needs perfectly!
