SHARP 2T-C42CG3KG2FB 42-Inch FHD LED Smart TV with Freeview Play, 3 x HDMI, 2 x USB, USB Media - Black

Product Information

If you are still unable to connect to the Wi-Fi, the problem is likely with the distance between the router and the TV.

Prices valid in stores (all including VAT) until close of business on 29th November 2023. (Some of these web prices are cheaper than in-store, so please mention that you've seen these offers online.)Also expect to find lots of region-specific apps such as BBC iPlayer in the UK, HBO Max in the US and Stan in Australia. It's a great option for gaming, too, thanks to that superb picture punch and a feature set that includes support for 4K/120Hz, VRR and ALLM, and an HGiG mode for excellent HDR accuracy.

While it probably wouldn’t be fair to say that LG has neglected its C series models this year, it does seem as if the attention lavished on the G3– the world’s first MLA OLED TV– has left the C3 in the shadows somewhat, with little to no hardware upgrades. These days, it's all about HDMI, which is used to connect everything from set-top boxes to video streamers, Blu-ray players to games consoles. Thanks to ARC/eARC (Audio Return Channel / Enhanced Audio Return Channel), a single HDMI connection can even be used to output sound to an AV receiver or soundbar at the same time as it receives a video signal. On the other hand, if the TV still turns on and off at random, try doing a reset to see if it fixes it.Look up ‘unassuming’ in the dictionary and you will probably find a picture of the Samsung UE43AU7100. This 43-inch LCD TV doesn’t flaunt a particularly flamboyant design, doesn’t sell for a particularly outrageous price – either high or low – and its features list is certainly no Lord Of The Rings-style epic. Samsung made a stellar return to the OLED market with last year’s S95B and the S90C builds on that success, with noticeable improvements to picture quality courtesy of a new screen filter and higher peak brightness. The combination of OLED and quantum dot technologies enables the S90C to deliver pure, accurate colours when watching HDR content, while Samsung’s video processing does a superb job upscaling lower-resolution source material.

This question is pretty much moot now, as the vast majority of TVs are now 4K. It's actually rather hard to find Full HD (1080p) models, even at relatively small sizes. In this guide, we've also included several 42-inch and 43-inch TVs, which might give you a bit of extra screen space if the best 40-inch TVs seem a touch too small. What about 42-inch TVs and 43-inch TVs?

SD CARD READER

The Philips 807 has plenty of attractive features, but its big selling point is its use of four-sided Ambilight technology. LEDs built into the rear of the OLED panel illuminate the wall behind the TV, with different modes achieving different effects. You can have the light match the colours being produced on the screen to increase your immersion in whatever you’re watching or set the Ambilight to neutral white to improve the perceived contrast and make for a more comfortable late-night viewing experience. The 43-inch AU7100 even proves a little more tolerant of wide viewing angles than most budget LCD TVs, wrapping up a picture performance that trades showiness and aggression for immersiveness and consistency in a way we wholeheartedly endorse. Other useful connections include optical and stereo outputs, which can be used in lieu of HDMI ARC to connect legacy audio equipment. Headphone outputs are still fairly common, too, though Bluetooth is also supported by most TVs now and some models now feature the latter but not the former.
