If you're looking for a TV to scratch your smart TV itch, the Panasonic 47AS740 could be the set for you thanks to its inclusion of the Freetime catch-up platform and uniquely customisable onscreen menus. However, some contrast issues make it a...

The TX-47AS740 benefits from the Freetime on-demand service that allows you to go back in time in the EPG. It also has a stylish design, good passive 3D support and perky colour performance.

It doesn't deliver the deep black levels and rich contrast that we'd expect at this price. Add in the fact that its implementation of the Freetime on-demand service feels half-baked and you're left with a TV that just isn't worth the high asking price.

Built-in Freesat and Freeview tuners, Great picture and sound quality size screen, Freetime is great but there's no remote record as seen on Humax Box with FreeTime

Single tuner restricts only recording what you are watching.
