Samsung 40" - 1080p or 4k? Confusion
Deako:
Thinking of upgrading my 2 year old LG 48" LED HD set for a new 4K unit.

Depends on the tv size and viewing distance to work out if youll see a difference between 1080 and 4K (presuming you even have 4K source)
white91:
If you don't plan to watch any 4K material it would be better to get a good 1080p tv, remember even 'HD' broadcasts are not actually 1080p

Just made the same choice aswell - 4k or just 1080p.
In the end i went with the Samsung ue50JU6800 from currys, was on offer at £699, but I managed to get additional discount via a friend working there.
Folk are right, there is little to no 4k content available at the moment. BT transmitted a Premiership game recently and have a further one due shortly. Netflix, Amazon and youTube have 4k content available at extra subscription etc...
All TV's in store appear to have a 4k trial DVD being shown, which is not what you will see when at home through the aerial or the source that you use at this time.
The HU set is a 2014 model, the JU set is a 2015 model.

4K tv is pointless as a. Nothing supports it atm and b. If it's a 4K tv with a rubbish refresh rate it'll still have crap picture..
Get a good LED tv with a high refresh rate and you'll be much happier. 4K will only ever be better when it's actually supported and you're buying a massive tv...will be almost impossible to tell the difference in smaller screens..the eye can only see so much
