Dealhacker: Get A 65-Inch 4K TV For $799

It’s been a while since we’ve featured an Aldi TV on Dealhacker, but this offer is definitely worth a shout-out: for 799 dollarydoos, you get an enormous 65-inch Ultra HD TV with inbuilt USB media playback and PVR recording. Here’s a look at the specifications.

The Bauhn 65″/165cm 4K Ultra HD TV is a standard entry-level 4K panel from a budget manufacturer; which is to say it’s good but not great. We’ve included the important specs below:

  • Resolution: 3840 x 2160 pixels
  • Refresh rate: 60Hz
  • Brightness: 300 cd/m2
  • Contrast ratio: 4700:1
  • Response Time (GTG): 6ms
  • Viewing angle (H x V): 176 X 176
  • Built-in HD Tuner: Yes
  • PVR Record: Yes (via USB)
  • Supported video formats: AVI, MPEG, MPEG-4, TS, MKV)
  • ARC: Yes
  • Dimensions (with stand): 1462×305×892mm (

So that’s a 4700:1 contrast ratio, 60Hz refresh rate, 300cd/m2 maximum brightness and 6 millisecond response time. Clearly, this TV isn’t going to appease hardcore videophiles — but if you’re looking to get started in 4K and don’t have tons of money to burn, you won’t find a better option at this price point. The only thing it’s missing is smart TV functionality — but that’s nothing a Chromecast dongle or modern video game console can’t remedy.

The Bauhn 65″/165cm 4K Ultra HD TV will be available to buy from Aldi this Saturday (17 September.) We recommend hitting your local store nice and early.
