It's a clinch

Hello,

Well this is hard work, I really need to get some kind of automated system to find yer 5-Star Reviews, but it’s all a manual process. Here are some – very nearly – 5 Star Reviews of some fine televisual devices. This time with smaller review pictures, but each one is a link to buy, buy, buy!

Turns out that people don’t buy things that have 5-Stars, but between 4.2 and 4.5, according to our chums at TechCrunch, so that messes up the very idea of this site. Hey ho.

So – here are some TV reviews which are, very, very nearly, 5 Stars on Amazon. Note that all pics have a link off to Amazon, and I get a massive percentage of the purchase price when you click the old OneClick (copyright Amazon) button and eagerly await the big box arriving the next day, usually.

Ok, so not a massive percentage, just one or two. Have a look at this lot then :

Hisense H43N5500UK 43inch 4K UHD Smart TV – Black (2017 Model) [Energy Class B]

Price : £349.00

• Perfect Picture featuring Ultra HD 4K – 3840 x 2160 Pixels for Ultra High Definition realism and quality

• Amazing Sound with DBX Total Sonics, Enhanced effects with DBX Total Surround, and DBX Total Volume for perfect control

• Great tuner selection with digital terrestrial, digital cable and digital satellite compatibility – DVB-T2/T/C/S2/S

Ultra HD 4K – 3840 x 2160 Pixels – nice – actors don’t like these things, all the wrinkles on show. And a Quad Core processor – they all come with built-in computers these days. In the very old days, they relied on the human eye not noticing all the shortcuts they had to take to get a picture that was almost watchable on a 409/625 CRT screen. Front Porches apparently. I did a degree (3rd Class) in this stuff, you know. Hisense is a Chinese State-Owned company, apparently, so getting nearly 5-Stars is impressive. Our NHS probably gets 5 Stars most of the time, in our defence.

That’s as many as I can find, especially selected for their 5-ish-Starriness.

Enjoy!

Hello,

So, ‘ere we go then, the best TVs on the market, all 5-Star reviews. That’s the idea behind this site, and I’ll be adding other goodies as time goes on. Maybe.

Even if this fine collection of tellyvisual boxes is wildly out of date, you are assured that they are all pretty jolly good TVs, so second-hand or an old-stock one will be just fine!

First up :
LG OLED55B6V 55 inch 4K Ultra HD OLED Flat Smart TV webOS (2016 Model) – Black [Energy Class B] : £2,131.37, pricey.

Pros:

1. LG OLED TV have organic self-emitting pixels that create unprecedented contrast, colour and clarity. Due to their unique nature the design of LG OLED TV is revolutionary, elegant and incredibly thin.
2. Infinit contrast with deeper darkness from self emitting pixels. Perfect black that creates perfect colour.
3. Picture perfect from virtually any angle.
4. UHD 4K with 8.3M Pixels
5. Unlike other TV’s, only OLED uses self-lighting pixel technology, delivering a standard of black and colour reproduction and with Dolby Vision achieves stunning image quality by leveraging breakthrough high dynamic range (HDR) and wide colour-gamut technologies

And no cons! Woo.  And with this model, it being a bit mature now (and still 5-stars) – you might find it cheaper elsewhere …

Next up :
Avtex L168DR Ultra-Compact/Lightweight Widescreen Full HD LED TV/DVD/PVR – Black, 16-Inch : £299.00, cheap!

1. 16″ widescreen Full HD LED TV with Integrated DVD/CD player and Digital Radio specifically designed for caravans and mobile homes
2. Pause / playback live TV / Instant record to USB plus Timer record to USB or HDD from programme guide (EPG)
3. DVBT & DVBT2 High definition freeview digital tuner
4. 2x HDMI / 2x USB / phono / headphone / audio in / co-axial audio-out

And …
Avtex L187DR Super Slim LED Widescreen TV/DVD – Black, 18.5 Inch : £288.85, cheap!

1. Pros:
   1. 1. 18.5″ widescreen TV with built-in DVD/CD player & DVBT / DVBT2 digital tuner

      3. Timer record from programme guide (EPG)
      4. 2xHDMI/2xUSB/phono/headphone/audio in/co-axial audio-out plus CI socket for access for pay TV’s
      5. 240v AC / 12v24v DC

      No cons! 5-Star! Buy it now! Or later, that’s just fine. i think the DVD/CD sticking out the side is an optional extra, you don’t have to look at it while watching Breaking Bad, it’ll fall out anyway, at that angle – they must’ve glued it in for the photoshoot.

      With …
      Samsung UE55K6300 55-inch 1080p Full HD Smart Curved TV : £1300.0 : Reasonably Priced!
      
      
      Pros:

      1. Curved TV: Revolutionary design that creates the perfect viewing angle
      2. Smart TV: Stream Amazon Video, Netflix and much more directly to your TV
      3. Quad Core Processing: Fast multitasking, enhanced performance and smooth interactions
      4. Auto Depth Enhancer: Applies various levels of contrast to create a more impressive and immersive picture
      5. 3 x HDMI

      Revolutionary design! Quad Core Processing! Auto Depth Enhancer! Why would you want your depth to be auto-enhanced? And a curvy one, in case your eyes aren’t wide enough for these new ginormous TVs these days. Is it any better, being curvy?

      That’ll do for now, my first foray into finding the only few 5-star telly-boxes on Amazon. And this is pretty hard work, so click on all the links above and buy other, normal, stuff from Amazon to support me in this daft idea (really, it is, but one day I might be able to sell the domain name to someone for a few quid) – and wish me luck 🙂

      Cheers,
