So distance from my sofa to TV in the living room is 2.1m, however we usually lie on the rug which is more like 1.3m to 1.7m.
TV is directly in front so no viewing angle issues.
I also have sufficient light in the living room with blackout curtains, can definitely control the amount of light I want
Budget is around £500 to £900 ish, whichever is the best value for money.
Main use would be youtube videos, 1080p animes from laptop, some gaming on nintendo switch. HDR would be a plus but can't see me using it much. Plan to plug in my laptop, soundbar and Switch to the TV at most, no 4k player etc. Therefore I think my main criteria in order would be:
1. Excellent upscaling
2. Ability for Apple Airplay without much hassle
3. Decent colours,
4. Decent motion processing.
My friend got a Samsung RU7020 recently and I wasn't too excited with some motion lag I noticed when watching videos on it.
Right now I've narrowed it down to:
1. Samsung RU8000 - 49 inch
2. Samsung Q70R - 49 inch
3. LG B8 - 55 inch
Bit conflicted whether I should go 55inch as it represents the best value, fear it might be too big causing too much eye/neck twitching =D
Through works promo I can get 10% off on Curry's gift vouchers or 20% off Samsung website, so plan is to wait until boxing day for max savings.
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated =)
