About this deal

The on-screen user interface should be easy to read, easy to follow, tell the user what is happening (e.g. tells the user to wait while TV is scanning for DTV broadcasts), and show clear prompts, which button to press, or what to do next. User interface accounts for 10% of the CHOICE Expert Rating.

The screen will timeshift to a recorded USB hard drive hung off one of these ports, although as the set only has a single Freview HD tuner, this would prevent it being used for watching other tuner channels while recording. TV manufacturers advertise their products in inches rather than centimetres. We provide screen measurements in both so you can decide which figure is more suitable. Medium (121cm - 160cm, 48" - 63") If you fancy cutting down on your monthly Sky bill then there's a way to get 25 percent off thanks to LIDL. The supermarket chain's loyalty app is currently offering cheaper Sky TV and it's not just for new customers. The most common faults or problems with TVs were smart TV features, apps and connecting to the internet.

You must notify us of your intent to cancel within 14 Working days of the date you received the item. It’s a nice enough looker too. The bezel is thin, with a chrome wrap around the edge of the screen. The TV stands on two shiny plastic feet. Inside there’s a single Freeview HD tuner, although you can record from it to a USB HDD. The screen itself is ostensibly well equipped though. It sports all the badges required by the canny 4K shopper, including Smart connectivity, 2160p resolution and 3D compatibility. Consequently, there's no correlation between Polaroid TVs on sale in the UK and those available in North America.

Expectations may have been low, but the degree to which this 49-inch Polaroid 4K TV exceeds them is still impressive. Comprehensively specified, easy to use and surprisingly capable of getting to the heart of what you’re watching, this is a much better TV than its name, availability and price tag might suggest.The Polaroid’s built-in speakers are a touch crude, particularly at high volumes, but the sound is impressively clear and direct, with a decent weight to the lower midrange. This is a clean delivery, too, with no brightness or sibilance.

If you have a large selection of networked multimedia, the P55D600 should certainly keep you amused. Switch to standard-def via the built-in tuner and, as long as you’ve dialled the settings down a little, the performance is perfectly acceptable. A more premium TV will produce more punch, and also balance sharpness and smoothness more effectively, but this is still a natural performance with control and clarity. Many TVs with very high resolution struggle to upscale standard definition (SD) sources to their native resolution, leading to low scores in our testing for SD. SD accounts for 15% of the CHOICE Expert Rating. Play 22 Jump Street on Blu-ray and we’re happy with the Polaroid’s upscaling quality, even if the comedy itself disappoints. Every edge is well etched and the clear, high-contrast picture is full of visual punch (translating well onto 3D performance when we try it out). Running the Polaroid with a THX Optimiser disc is highly recommended, particularly for sorting out the colours. We found them more natural-looking on a cooler colour temperature setting.Manufacturer Refurbished - Includes Stand, Remote control, User manual and Power lead. Non-essential accessories (cables, adapters etc.) may NOT be supplied. We have increased our testing in this area as TVs become an intrinsic part of the modern smart home. The smart TV assessment accounts for 10% of the CHOICE Expert Rating.
