What is so stupid is you do not know if Toshiba

Then add the Tevion name




"Sky, Freeview and Freesat don't natively broadcast in 1080p"
Correct its 1080i
well above your 720P




But by adding a BluRay Player (now costing under £50)
it will play Full HD 1080P
unlike your real old 720P TV that can not

Even if they make it it is still not as good and up to date as a brand new Samsung/LG

Its a tech war

In general Aldi stuff is good value and quality - they are budget but not crap.

For many peeps this is good value and right on time for the World Cup

Yeah but when it breaks in a year you'll have to buy a new one

[jackc1806]

I don't think I'd buy a supermarket TV for downstairs, maybe for a bedroom

Sure but you pay below Trade price at Aldi

On Tech gear its made in China or Korea for Germany
so Technical Gear is good in both stores
as both stores go below trade prices

Right, here goes...

You do know there are more to the specs of a television other than its resolution, right?

No. It may use a panel by a top brand, but the TV itself won't be put together by them. There is a difference.




"Sky, Freeview and Freesat don't natively broadcast in 1080p"
Correct its 1080i
well above your 720P

1. My TV is 1080p, albeit probably not a major point due to the size of the set.

2. Lot's prefer 720p over 1080i. Thus making your argument invalid.




But by adding a BluRay Player (now costing under £50)
it will play Full HD 1080P
unlike your real old 720P TV that can not

1. As said above, my TV is 1080p.

2. Going by your logic, if 720p is old then so is 1080p. There are higher resolutions around now. 4K for example.

Let's apply your logic to other technology.

The technology in the PS4 and Xbox One is OLD.

An Intel I5 processor is OLD.

An LCD TV must be OLD.

My Microwave is OLD.

Do you see where this leading?

Technology from both Aldi and Lidl is good because they go below trade prices? You cannot be serious?!

So by this logic... I'll go buy an Aldi TV as opposed to a branded one from Tesco as it's cheaper?

did you get the tv was it utter bliss

"Lot's prefer 720p over 1080i. Thus making your argument invalid."


No thats you

720p is well out of date.


Which is why
Better Stores sell the current top 1080P
Full HD TV's



4k TV's , at this time , are well out of most of our price ranges
and we have no 4K broadcasts yet.

I give up. Clearly you have no idea what the heck you're talking about.

This post is so full of flaws, it's ridiculous. Luckily, it appears nobody on this forum intends to buy this TV.

Is 1080p better than 720?

Certainly 1080p is better (if you mean from a video quality perspective it's higher resolution) than 720p, but perhaps they are talking about 720p vs 1080i.

For sports or fast action 720p is usually better because with an interlaced signal (1080i) the two halves of the image that make up each frame can be slightly out of sync, and while the image is technically slightly higher resolution (1080 vs 720 lines) it's less clear. Furthermore interlaced video is prone to a type of annoying video artifact called twittering ... see link. Finally many displays don't do de-interlacing very well.

Keep in mind that image quality isn't just a matter of resolution. Contrast, color saturation and color accuracy are actually more important ... but in theory apply equally to a 720p or 1080p image.
So ... almost always 720p video is "better" than 1080i.

While not directly relevant, consider that the degree of video compression used in the signal (particularly true for broadcast TV ... and a major reason why some HDTV broadcasts look better than others ... but also potentially an effect on DVS or Blu-rays) can mean that a compressed 1080p image would look worse than a less compressed 720p image. That said, 1080p isn't widely available for HDTV and Blu-ray is almost always 1080p and has to be down sampled to output at 720p.

But, but, 1080 is a bigger number than 720 is a bigger number...

And resolution is the be all and end all when it comes to choosing a television set...
