Cheap as possible TV

[andywright182]

Need to try find a new TV that is going to be good for playing xbox on. Dont have a vey big budget and is for the bedroom so could do with been quite flat. Know I wont get anything too fancy but something that is going to have decent picture quality at a budget will be good. Any ideas?

What budget?

Its just under £600 but its 42"!!!!
IIRC Aldi often have stock of their smaller tellys in, might be worth popping in and asking?

Otherwise, try http://empiredirect.co.uk or http://ebuyer.co.uk
Have a browse - i usually find either of them offer the best (or very near) price.

Since it was bank-holiday monday today, you may see some bank-holiday specials in your local electrical shops etc?

If you want others to search, give us an idea of screen size, price and stuff such as hd-ready etc.
I'm guessing you want LCD/Plasma as opposed to CRT (fat ones)

£600 is way over budget im afraid, looking more at this kind of thing

is this an ok unit or will it be pretty poor?

So sub £200?

I'd try the supermarkets tbh. They do cheap LCD's every few weeks.

I go a great 32"lg lcd for £380 from sound and vision so they must do 22" ones for about £200

Sony Bravia 32" at sainsburys for £399

personally if i were you i would be going for a 22" lcd monitor, something like this.......

and then use a VGA cable with your 360, you will get a much better quality picture that way rather than getting a cheapo lcd tv.

 

[andywright182]

I was thinking of going down the monitor route but ideally need tv as well. decisions decisions!

I got a 22" Technika from Tesco at Easter. It was £150 I think, not a great brand but 22" with built in freeview and dvd player with hdmi, can't go wrong really.

Was going to post the same one. No Freeview tuner but every other component you buy nowadays has one anyway.

 

[ChrisPearson]

The lg is £280 and has freeview and looks better.
