Amazon TSV 02/03/22
We had a power cut over night - bit scary as the overhead pole caught fire!
I’ve been up the whole night - very cold and very boring! And it meant I couldn’t watch the TSV, which I was potentially interested in.
Or at least wanted to see for research...
I managed to get QVC on at 8:30am so caught v end of presentation.
Was distracted by Lee’s hair - really bad and even more like Tin Tin than ever! - and in a positive way, by Ali Kerman’s blouse.
Ivory and very sheer indeed - but had white tank top underneath - and it looked very classy!
Hope it wasn’t Marla Wynne!
Anyway, the two of you who bought Hisense TVs recently, are you using with aerials please?
Am looking for a TV for upstairs where I don’t have an aerial or cable etc.
Got Wi-fi of course...
I know it says it has various catch up channels built in, as well as Freeview Play, but am not sure if I could watch just using internet connection/Wi-fi?
And does 43” not look massive in a bedroom - or any room?! *
My brother takes the mic out of me because my sitting room (and only!) TV is 32” and I complain it’s too big! It’s not a tiny room either.
(He’s the type to have a huge screen wall-mounted, I’m not!)
It’s a Sony and has been good to me but do need to simplify the system and it’s not a Smart TV....
So it is an option for that to go up but it’s quite heavy and has quite a bit frame on it!
Funny/sad how quickly technology dates these days...
Sorry processing out loud!
As someone above has said, one year warranty not enough on a TV so need to think about that too?!
Thanks that’s good to know.* The TSV one is a 40” not a 43.
We’ve a 43” one in the bedroom and I think its fine but I guess its all personal choice.
My two are connected to Virgin boxes - one has an aerial connection as well. You could technically use with just an internet connection but it would make navigating ’live’ tv channels a bit clunkier as you’d have to do it in individual apps.
Yep one of them was me.Thanks that’s good to know.
Yes think you’re right watching the apps wouldn’t be ideal...
Wasn’t sure if you needed an aerial for Freeview.
I think I must be strange but I was just looking at my TV (the 32”) and wondering how I would cope with something bigger...
The newer ones do have much smaller frame and the rest though.
Know TSV is 40” but two people above bought 43” Hisense ones and said it was for upstairs?
The performance of an indoor aerial varies greatly depending on how far you are from the transmitter and any hills in the way, etc.Yep one of them was me.
I know what you mean about whether you could live with a bigger one though- I remember when we first got a ‘big’ telly and we got the box in the house and I wondered what the hell we’d done as it looked huge. Within a day i couldn’t imagine ever having a smaller one, and was actually wondering if we should have gone a bit bigger. Its all down to personal preference though isn’t it.
Incidentally you can get a separate aerial that you can have inside the house / next to the telly, if you don’t have a roof mounted one - they’re not expensive and have a power supply so that the signal is boosted - they do work quite well. We have one for when we go camping.
According to Argos this one in the TSV is a 2020 model.Which version is it 2020 or the 2021 version.
If it’s the older version oh dear
If that is a fact don’t buy it.According to Argos this one in the TSV is a 2020 model.
