Less than 12 hours after Swift fed her fans the nostalgia they were craving, she caused yet another frenzy with an Instagram post. But if you want a dirt-cheap 4K TV, you could do a lot worse.At midnight on July 7, Taylor Swift released Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) - the long-awaited rerecording of her third album, released in 2010.
The lower-cost panels are likely to show their flaws more clearly on larger screens too, where the processor needs to work a lot harder to get a consistent picture out of all those pixels.
We recommend sticking with Polaroid sets in smaller sizes though, where they don't have as fierce competition from big-name rivals such as Philips or Samsung – and are still cost-effective. There wasn't much optimization to be found in the set's picture settings, but there was also little need to fiddle.Īt this price, corners will inevitably be cut, though – we found the P55D600's dimming zones and backlighting features disappointing and inexact when trying to vary the brightness in low-light content.īut for these low prices you're likely to be getting a decent picture from a Polaroid TV, as long as you don't expect too much from it. When we reviewed the Polaroid P55D600, we praised the brand's first UHD television for its impressive picture quality right out of the box, both in native 4K and when upscaling HD/SDR content. The hardware design also tends to be straightforward, with light plastic casing and a stripped-back UI. If you're looking for a more compact television to squeeze into a bedroom, or that can be tidied away in a cupboard more easily, these may be worth a look. Polaroid also manufactures TVs in sizes some brands barely bother with anymore, like 24 and 32 inch.
Any handy USB port in the back should let you use an actual Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV stick though, which might be significantly more convenient. Some Polaroid sets aren't really fully-fledged smart TVs in their own right – watch out for this – but come with a basic Google OS, which relies on you casting content from a smartphone or tablet.
