We decided to stick with are 5 year old LG, we should have read the Toshiba reviews I automatically assumed they were a Japanese manufacture ?.
You’d be suprised mate, how many still assume they are still getting Japanese quality. The give a way when you sit down and think about it, is Japanaese stuff was never in the budget segment. TCL, Hiesense have R&D Phillips is owned by TP Vision Hongkong.
I bought a mid range entry spec 55″ TCL mini led,about 2/3 years at time of the ultra long thread finding Mike a TV, to replace the portble we had in the kitchen, much to the disgust of the mrs at the time and in many was prefer it to the LG OLED in the lounge. My daughter also has 75″ attached to the ceiling in the sensory room, to play quite music nd calming images😂 I have mid spec Hisense in bedroom. Phillips are decent with their famous ambilight tv’s
