We searched for all of the Televisions that we could find at Currys. In total we found 268 different products available. It’s a shame, then, that Dolby Vision content in the Disney+ app suffered from some horrible juddering during our testing. Netflix was seemingly unaffected but watching content via Disney’s streaming service was blighted with hitches and jerks throughout. Once you notice it, it’s very distracting. Hopefully this is something which can be ironed out with a future software update. We have now started delivering right to your door! Alternatively you can collect free of charge from one of our 7 branches (see steps below)

Picture quality: 50 HzHDR: Dolby Vision / HDR10 / Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG)Catch-up TV & 4K streamingFreeview HDHDMI 2.0b x 4 The 4K display supports Dolby Vision and HLG HDR formats, and the speakers take advantage of both DTS HD and DTS Virtual X audio. But, how does it perform? Design As the JVC employs a VA-type LCD panel, it has a familiar set of pros and cons. Viewed head-on, it supplies a surprisingly vivid, high-contrast image. Move even slightly away from head-on, however, and the contrast and colours fade away rapidly; the viewing angles are narrow at best. As a result, wall-mounting it above eye-level is a no-no, and you’ll want to be seated directly in front wherever possible, which may be awkward in many living rooms. The presence of Dolby Vision is particularly good news for a budget model. ‘Dynamic’ HDR formats such as Dolby Vision are capable of adapting to the limitations of low-end 4K TVs, whereas ‘static’ HDR formats such as HLG and HDR10 rely more heavily on a TV’s natural talents. At this price, those talents are routinely in short supply. JVC Fire TV Edition review: Key specifications It is quite hard to compile a proper article without any sleep lately but still I will do my best to present you a mid-range 4k Smart TV that comes at a good price in UK - the JVC LT-50CF890.It’s also important to have a good idea of your expectations in terms of quality too. You may not actually be looking for the best quality product if your main goal is to get cheap Televisions. So spend some time considering what’s important to you and think about the areas that you’d be happy to compromise or not.

Those colours aren’t as intense as they should be in HDR mode, though, so don’t expect the kind of eye-popping colour which you get from pricier sets – the JVC covers a mere 70% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut, which is far less than even many mid-range TVs. By the same metric, even LG’s affordable UM7400 managed to cover 82% of DCI-P3. As with any electrical items, it’s particularly important to study the quality of a product before you buy it. This is especially important for Televisions. But when we’re buying online, what can be done to get an idea of a product’s quality?

It’s really good at this stage to spend some time just getting an idea of the sort of price you can expect to pay for your Televisions. When you’re spent a bit of time looking at the prices, consider setting yourself a budget. Upscaling is somewhat disappointing. While the image is sharp, colours appear washed out compared with the TV’s handling of native 4K content. One place the JVC does trip up is in its latency. Even in its built-in Game mode, the TV displays a lag of 42ms. The result was even worse than the 33.8ms achieved by the Hisense A7100, which doesn’t have a game mode at all. Picture qualityTV with stand: 762 x 1243 x 227 mm (H x W x D) - Stand: 18 x 600 x 227 mm (H x W x D) - Boxed: 860 x 1369 x 154 mm (H x W x D) The LT-55CF890 features the old Fire TV interface and not the all-new Fire TV experience available on some of its streamers. It’s large and straightforward to navigate with tabs for the home screen, live TV, your videos, movies, TV, apps and settings. The JVC LT-55CF890 features two 20W speakers that support DTS HD and DTS Virtual:X. Unlike the 50- and 65-inch models, there’s no Dolby Audio. However, DTS Virtual:X does a good job of creating a large, immersive sound. The JVC fared a little better than expected in our testing. In SDR mode, its default Standard picture preset puts out a maximum brightness of around 369cd/m² and achieves a very respectable contrast ratio of 5,329:1 even with all the contrast– and colour-enhancing features turned off. Fire up HDR mode, and peak brightness increases to 400cd/m² while contrast remains high at 5,358:1. Dimensions: - TV with stand: 699 x 1130 x 216 mm (H x W x D) - TV: 656 x 1130 x 82 mm (H x W x D) - Boxed: 780 x 1215 x 154 mm (H x W x D)

The biggest issues with the JVC, however, are that it struggles with both motion and upscaling – two key performance elements of any self-respecting 4K TV. I didn’t expect much given the 60Hz refresh rate, but the panel’s slow response time is painfully obvious. It’s not too noticeable in brighter scenes, but detail and colours are smudged by horrible blur in darker moments. Similarly, while images look crisp in 4K when the camera is moving slowly, fast action and sports shows up the panel’s limitations, with detail becoming flattened and indistinct.

Previous experience: Have you ever owned any Televisions? Think about your experience of the product and how good it was. What brand was it? How much was it? What was it made from? All of these can help you when considering your options. Quality is a very important factor when it comes to buying any product, but it’s particularly important with Televisions. It’s never going to be easy to get a real feel for the quality of a product without being able to see or even test it. Setting yourself a budget will really help you to narrow down your search. It can also help you to avoid the slippery slope of buying a really expensive product that perhaps had advanced specifications that you didn’t need or couldn’t actually afford. Once you’re into the Fire TV interface proper, you’re faced with a familiar set of tiles offering apps, recently watched programmes and suggestions of things you might want to watch. In addition to the usual suspects, you’ll also notice tiles for the TV’s various HDMI inputs and terrestrial TV tuner. These inputs are treated just like apps or watched programmes, so if you regularly use the HDMI 4 port, for instance, then that gets pole position in your recently watched list.
