Client Critiques

We have had two new HD TVs for just a bit more than five months. One is a 23" Sony and 1 a 32" LG. The Sony hooked up conveniently, but the LG was like our first color set. We diddled with picture, sound, aspect ratio, and other settings to get the most effective picture and sound on each channel. I nevertheless do not know if the differences in between channels is resolution, settings, or in the case of the news, makeup. But we had been just pleased to get it so that we could see all the face lifts...
Now for the Haier, a somewhat unknown Chinese brand of high definition Television. I plugged it into our Comcast cable box making use of an HDMI cable, and bingo, a bright and sharp picture with great sound. For a few minutes I was positive a mistake was made, and we had been offered a 1080p rather of the 720 that was on the box. Maybe anything under 50 inches doesn't matter. We believe that the Haier is just as great and perhaps even a tiny superior picture than the LG! Not one factory setting had to be changed!
The sound from the built-in speakers is outstanding - in portion due to employing an HTMI cable - and the Sound Leveler really operates. No even more spikes when altering channels and it even works on commercials that applied to blare ten db greater than the system.
(The hookups and excellent are especially very good with our DVD player and photographs on a flash drive, but they will not be implemented quite significantly. The Television will not be used with our personal computer, so I can not address that either. Some will complain about the inputs being placed below a lip in the back, but most HD TVs use the exact same configuration for the reason that so countless individuals will wall mount the Tv. If the plugs were straight in, the Television would not be flush with the wall.)
Initially, we had so a lot difficulty with the remote from Comcast, that I was about to give this only 4 stars. We can only get HD by way of the Comcast box, and the Comcast remote - as negative as it is - should certainly be our only remote. But the Comcast remote would not accept the two codes for the Haier Television, and I thought we would have to use two remotes. I known as Comcast, and they gave me the same two numbers that came with their box. I named Haier, and they told me that they Didn't HAVE CODES FOR Comcast.
All was not lost, then again. I went on line, asked for "Comcast remote codes for Haier," and the second link was a discussion exactly where one particular respondent stated, "Try the codes for DURABRAND."
The third code below Durabrand (10178), and we were set!
(And, because I've now been asked this question four instances by people who are concerned about no matter if it will fit into their cabinets, the set is 31.25 inches wide, i.e., side-to-side! The 37.8 inches they refer to is diagonally!)
I stated in the title of this assessment that it was unexpectedly fabulous. Nicely, this is a phenomenal Tv primarily contemplating that it was the least expensive of all 32 inch HD sets. We now have fantastic Hi Def in our bedroom where, in six minutes, I'm going to watch the last game of the Globe Series! (Certain, I could watch it in the living room, but I like new experiences.)

UPDATE Dec-2011:
The finest element about this Tv was its below $200 cost. But now that it really is back to its common value, there may be improved possibilities such as the LG 32LK330, the Panasonic TC-L32C3, or the Samsung LN32D403. Or you can upgrade to the bigger TCL 40" Tv which I also reviewed. For a little bit a great deal more money, you get a 57% improve in viewing region, a Samsung 1080p panel, an enhance in sound top quality, and a 2 year warranty.
ORIGINAL Evaluation:
I purchased this Tv on sale in Nov. 2011 for $197. It's an updated model of Haier L32B1120. I'll rate every category in Amazon's program of 1 to five stars. My ratings are relative to how this Tv stacks up against other TVs in its value range.
SETUP (three stars)
For wall mounting, you need a VESA 400x200mm compliant mount such as this, this, or this. I used the plastic stand. The 2 shorter screws go into the best holes which wasn't stated in the manual. If you're attempting to fit it into a shelf, the dimensions with stand are 31.25" x 22" x 8.five". The power cord does not have a power brick attached which is a plus. I don't have a problem with the connections getting on the bottom of the Tv since I'll only be connecting them 1 time. I consider the headphone connection on the rear bottom to be a style flaw. (If you do want to use headphones, obtaining some thing like this should solve the problem.) I am working with a mastering universal remote which did discover codes for this Television.
PICTURE (five stars)
I changed the preset picture setting to 'Theater'. I also altered the 'Backlight' to 9. There are some slight flickering when it's set to 8 or lower. I watched some blu-ray movies from an Amazon recommended distance of about 6 feet and didn't notice any apparent picture defects. The viewing angle is quite superior for an LCD. The black level is average, but the brightness is good. The screen is glossy, so do watch out for glare. BTW, you will not notice a distinction between a 720p and a 1080p 32" Television when viewed at a normal viewing distance.
GAMING (five stars)
I hooked up my Xbox 360, tried a couple games, and didn't notice any input lag.
AUDIO (1 star, 3 stars if it wasn't broken)
The audio sounds about perfect for 7 watt LCD Television speakers, which isn't terrific but passable for a bedroom. You can hook up speakers to it via coaxial digital audio out or headphone out. The Tv speakers do not automatically turn off when you plug into the headphone out although. (You desire to press the mute button.) Here's my only difficulty with this Tv: When the sound is coming through the HDMI, it really is fine. But when I hooked up the sound via the two sets of RCA inputs or the Computer audio in, I get static noises. It sounds like a slightly out of range radio station one particular moment sound appears fine, but one other moment the static cuts in, specially noticeable for the duration of quiet segments.
RELIABILITY ? (Unrated)
This is the very first widely used Tv from this brand, so I'll have to have a couple alot more months ahead of determining how trustworthy it is. I suggest finding the SquareTrade extended warranty for some peace of mind.
Value (five stars)
Absolutely free shipping, zero cost 30 day return, delivered to your door in 2 days for $197 is tough to beat.
I would have rated this Television a 5 star if it wasn't for the broken audio. Rather of exchanging it, I returned it right after finding a fantastic deal on a bigger Television.
