I saw that some JVC 4k TVs (around 40") were selling for around the £200 mark without a very large reduction from full price.
JVC used to be a good brand, so I am wondering if the name has been bought and budget panels are being shipped under this brand.
Or are 4k TVs just getting much cheaper?
I am looking for a 4k monitor around 40" as one of my dual monitors
(ancient) has just died and my Full HD monitor won't really show two
windows side by side with enough detail.
Cheers

Richer Sounds will do you a 50" Sharp 4k TV for £249 and it has a DVB-S tuner.
Yes brand engineering, but its not who can sell them, its actually how well they are made I feel.

Years ago I read an article that said one factory in Taiwan made just
about all desktop computers including all the big names. The only
difference was that the big established names had their own Quality
Control people in the factory.
Is that for the complete TV, or for the special ion-free, ultra-pure-copper mains cable? 😉

Thanks all.
So it appears to be a generic no-name (however good/bad that is).
Will swerve for the moment.

No that's another £249, more in silver...
Seriously though Lidl have the Toshiba at £199 from Monday and it looks
a decent specification: - https://www.lidl.co.uk/p/black-friday/toshiba-43-4k-smart-tv/p56660?ar=16
Includes speakers, [wired] Ethernet, HDR, 3 HDMI, 2 USB (use USB 3
drives for reliable recording) and a [4k] satellite receiver. No
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi not mentioned.
Given the limitation of an HDMI connection, it should do fine as a
monitor so long as you are not gaming.
One issue is the space available.
I have a nice little nice beside the door from the hall into the main
living area/kitchen and up to 40" should fit without seriously endangering passers by.

43" might be pushing it a bit unless I angle it which might be doable.
Then again, I wonder how many TV sets there will be in the local stores,
and if so for how long.

the bezel around the screen was extremely wide. One day it failed so
time for a new TV. I took her around the local store to see some flat
panel TVs - "I don't want one as big as that looking at 40(ish) inch
panels."
It took some persuading AND a cut out piece of cardboard to demonstrate
that the a 43 inch panel was actually a smaller than the front of her
old 21 inch CRT set. Also the panel being around 50x to 100x thinner
than the CRT set gained her much more usable space in her living room.
On installation of a 42/43 inch panel the first comment was "I can see
that a lot better than my old TV" At the time her sight was just
beginning to fail, unfortunately a dozen years on and now registered as partially sited and relying on modern technology to help out.
