At around £1,800, we think the 40-inch, 1080p, LED-backlit 40PFL9704H/12 LCD TV is too expensive, but, as long as you're good friends with your bank manager, we're happy to recommend this set. Its construction, picture and sound quality, and feature set all scream classRead more

    May I stream videos from Netflix on 40PFK4100/12?

    It's not smart television, but if you have a regular TV and not a smart TV, you can still watch Netflix on it by using a separate device. Some options include set-top boxes and streaming sticks. To use these devices, you will need a stable internet connection, as well as a subscription to the streaming service you want to use, plus set up the device to connect to your TV. Once you have done this, you can start streaming content from Netflix and other platforms on your non-smart TV.
