Power consumption: The device is specified with 51 Watts and maintains this information in Eco mode also. I have 52 watts measured (measuring tolerance). Outside the Eco mode, the consumption is about 60 watts. This is still quite low for the size. On the right side is an on / off switch is available around the TV off completely. Exemplary!
Connectors: 4x HDMI, one of which with Audio Return Channel (ARC), 1x SCART, 3x USB (keyboard, mouse, hard drive), 1x LAN, 1x VGA and audio in for PC, 1x headphone, 1x optical digital output, 1x antenna 1x satellite, 1x CI slot, Wireless LAN connection.
Mounting and installation: The setup was easy. Both feet fit in only one direction in the housing and secured with 2 screws. A Phillips screwdriver is required. After connecting all the cables the power switch on the right side turn. It follows the language. The channel search was carried out at me on a cable connection quickly and automatically. Set up the wireless network was also easy. The router was found immediately and to enter the network key a new software version has been found and installed directly on the TV. The menu is well-structured and clear. The manual I needed at any time.
Reception: Very good! It all TV channels were found and these will also receive stable. I can not say another TV a popular Korean manufacturer, for example, I had here once, any more than from an external cable box, the there also had its difficulties. Changing stations carried out relatively quickly. Also the wifi reception is better than with my HTPC and stable.
Picture: Impressive! Beautifully sharp HDTV, good colors, good brightness. Clouding or larger halos are not noticed. The display is free of pixel errors. The 3D viewer succeeds convincingly. I had a look at a 3D BluRay and it was like in the 3D cinema. Very good depth perception, convincing spatiality. The image reproduction is predominantly liquid at Marquee, eg news channels. Only in very rapid movements, a slight bucking be perceived in 2D. Jerking occurs also about 1 second after changing channels before the picture and sound are then re-synchronized. Here, the CPU seems to be a little too weak.
Sound: The headphone jack can be controlled separately from the internal speakers. This means you can connect eg a Stereoanlange there without these must then always used as the internal speakers work at the request continues. In the case, the outcome is a read only and regulates the internal speakers continue using the remote control. Very good! The sound of the TV can be adjusted with a 5-band equalizer to your own desires, but since the TV is very shallow and the speakers in accordance with small, you can (as with all modern TV devices) simply do not expect Hifiklang. The speech intelligibility is good though.
Smart TV / Internet TV Features: Extensive but still expandable. The device features an Internet browser (appears on-screen keyboard) or USB keyboard and mouse (not included) are served either with the remote control. In addition, apps can be installed. Choose from Youtube, max cathedrals, the media libraries of ARD and ZDF, Facebook, weather apps, news portals, sports programs, etc. Unfortunately there is no other video streaming sites such as Netflix, Watch Ever, Sky Snap etc Schön would also music streaming providers such as Spotify been. The Grundig can now manufacture in Turkey, can also be seen on the app selection. So many other Turkish-speaking apps are available for our fellow citizens of Turkish descent. Maybe a feature that the Grundig brand makes this a special recommendation for this group. I have tested the Youtube app. A FullHD video was played immediately after calling stable and in good quality.
Additional features: DLNA streaming and when connecting a USB camera can be with the TV for example, a baby in the other room monitor (this is pre-installed app).
CONCLUSION: For only 380 euros I got here a modern, economical SmartTV in Full HD 3D technology and LED backlight, which also offers a very good cable reception. Many features that I would not have thought in the price range of possible and extensive connections that are not also a matter of course, complete my positive picture. Apart from a slight jerking at fastest movements and the somewhat limited Appauswahl I could find no real weaknesses. For me it was a lucky purchase since exist yet any reviews for this device. I would decide again for this TV. Now he only has to prove that he is well preserved. The only time will tell.
