Technika 42-502 Reviews: 42" Screen LCD TV

+ Very easy to use with auto tune.
Exellent value for money. Bought for my son & he loves it.

- The only point i would make is that you had to screw the stand to the tv. Not easy to do as you can't lay it flat. Most tv's slot into the stand.

- the only bad point is only one AV outlet

+ Easy set up. Excellent picture quality - especially when viewed at an angle unlike other LCD TVs.

- Electronic TV Guide could be better, not enough info on screen. It takes too long to scroll either up/down or left/right to see other channels or later proframmes.

+ good value big screen

- picture is ok if you do not compare it to an expensive screen

+ It's great, it was easy to set up & worked straight away.

- I had a bit of trouble with fitting the stand to the screen but that was because i live on my own & the other major issue is with intergrating the TV remote with the Sky remote as their isn't a code for it.

+ easy to install, great value for money

- instructions not very helpful, managed to figure things for myself.

+ ok quality of picture

- Can't switch off except by pulling out the plug otherwise wasting enery on stand by

+ A very good quality television at a very affordable price, looks good , picture quality fab, can't fault it, a really good purchase, i highly recomend it

- none

+ Excellent picture and easy to use overall.

- Sound does not have a lot of bass and speakers rattle when listening to either a film, or a music channel/dvd, when the volume is turned up slightly.

+ Cheep, good size.

- Can not use a Sky remote to control the sound, Picture size changes with channel changes, can not for the life of me find out how to stop this.

+ Very attractive in appearance

- Switches could be larger at the side

+ excellent value for money

- have not found any so far

+ great value for money tv.excellent product,very well pleased with product actually bought a second one instore.

- none so far

+ Very reasonably priced.

- No bad points

+ For the price it is an unbelievably great product. Fantastic picture quality and extremely easy to set up.
Huge amount of connectivity and the ability to use as a large computer monitor is an added bonus I did not expect from a TV this price.

- Slightly worried about the life of the battery for the remote as it is just a coin type 2032. Thats the only bad point I can think of!

- image /colour not that great
loos very orangey/red

+ Easy set up & tuning

- Have to set screen size back to 16.9 every time we switch on.
Sometimes picture isn't as sharp as it could be.

+ good design and very easy to set up

- only one scart

+ good value, great picture and fantastic looking design

- sound quality is poor and freeview failed after a few weeks

+ the tv is amazing value for money and with Sky HD it looks really cool

- The TV buzz`s sometimes so i have to tap the tv then it goes away. i have the tv on the wall so that may have something to do with it.

+ A first class product at a really good price. Easy to set up. Good qualiy picture especially on HD. Sound quality good. I can not find any faults at all. ( Perhaps, a review of the design, but that is only nit picking.)

- Tried to get code from Sky to set up Sky remote control but there were no codes available for this make/ model, according to sky.

+ Image Quality, Sound and the Design are all good.

- The remote control sensitivity is not too good.

+ Very good value for money

- Only one which is that the standby always stays on unless it is switched off at the mains.

- buzzing noise coming from sound

+ Nice Design, good quality, nice stand, beautiful clear picture I would say 9 out of 10

- it has only 1 scart socket which makes it difficult if you want to attach other things such as a DVD recorder, its saving grace is that it has two HDMI sockets.

+ light, good quality picture

- at times delay for the picture to come on

+ Fantastic value for money, easy to set-up and user friendly!

+ as above

- none

+ Good Picture.

- Sound quality could be better.

+ The unit is/was best available at the cost. Absolutely superb picture quality.

- The accessibility of the menu for input changing is/can be awkward in as much as the software times out if you are not quick enough, If the unit is not sat level then a very loud hum will result until it is levelled.

+ looks nice and fairly cheap for size.

- sounds awful,very tinny so we rig our up with extra speakers through stereo.

+ easy to use great value

+ Brilliant value for money!

- None

+ Sleek smooth design, good sound quality, matching stand very much in character with product, picture quality excellent, and better that some of the leading brands of tv.

- Picture format changes itself to 4.3 and you have to change it back each time the television is switched on, or a new programme starts. This is frustrating, and verging on rather annoying. TV makes a loud buzzing noise for the first while when switched on, and continues to do so until you give it a sharp tap on the top, which stops this noise.

+ works perfect straight out of the box

- none
