+ Out of the box and set up in 10 minutes. Excellent design and picture quality.

- Better speakers would raise the overall rating to 10/10. But for a small tv the sound is still just about acceptable.

kris, manchester

+ Absolutely fantastic tv. bought this for the bedroom and it serves the purpose very well. great picture quality, fantastic looking, easy to use and set up.

- the sound. it can be a little tinny. dont get me wrong though, it doesnt detract from the overall quality of the tv and i have heard far worse, its just that if you are intending to play movies regularly, dont expect a full 5.1 surround sound experience. 95% of the time, the sound isnt an issue, you dont know there is a problem, because there isnt. just every now and then, you notice. when you do, there are 5 different sound settings and they work every time.

Richard, Bangor , “Occasional TV watcher” More like this »

+ Beautiful, crisp, sharp picture through freeview. Bought as a TV for the bedroom and it is perfect size. Very nice finish on the TV with the black gloss. Sound is as good as I would need it to be for a bedroom TV.

- Viewing angles are not good and darkens dramatically when off centre. We initially had the TV on a chest of drawers which was slightly above our viewing position in bed and we had lower it to eye level as the picture has faded so much. The TV does not tilt foward on its stand which wouls solve this problem. The gloss finish will collect dust easily but that is more my fault than a fault of the TV ;)

Barry, Skipton , “Multi-purpose viewer” More like this »

+ Bought it for the bedroom and is adequate for its purpose considering the exceptional low price.
Colurs are vivid and sound ok after you tweek the settings i.e. use the equaliser to increase the base and reduce the treble.
Easy to tune in and as I live in a fringe area for freeview it pulls in a good signal and picks up all channels.

- Picture quality not the best but more than adequate for bedroo/kitchen location.
Sound needs adjusting along with picture settings, this is a personal thing
