The Chinese manufacturer is looking to bring affordable 4K UHD TVs to the UK with the K321 LED range, spearheaded by the sub-£500 LTDN40K321UWTSEU 40in model.

The new K321 LED range has been designed for 4K streaming, and as such comes with the all-important HEVC H.265 codec on board, as well as the open-source VP9 format - and with the Netflix app preloaded.

The TVs are fitted with HDMI 2.0 ports and support 4K content from set-top boxes, Blu-ray players and games consoles. USB 3.0 Movie functionality also means users can view and listen to content, including 4K, from USB-connected devices.

The new range comprises 40in (£450), 50in (£600) and 55in (£700) models, and will be available this autumn.

It wouldn't be his first exposure to the world of all things hi-fi and home cinema, as his first role in technology journalism was with What Hi-Fi? in the UK. Clearly he pined to return after making the move to Australia and the team have welcomed him back with arms wide open.
