Misconception? 4k TVs cost too much?

Eh? I'd say stay away from the cheap stuff too but we're talking 600EUR and below, not 1500!!!

You can get plenty of good 4k HDR sets for much less than 1500 from brands such as LG, Samsung or Sony.

The one I have my eye on is £649, that's about 760EUR.

You have to be careful. For instance, the Samsung KS7000 brand is being advertised with HDR1000. But the panel can only do 8 bit + FRC and not 10 bit. Also, if you want to use Smart TV, then the TV's at a lower price point will have a slower performance regarding these features. Overall image quality is also lower on those TV's because of a cheap panel.

I recommend to check out a lot of reviews and comparisions with other TV's.
