Appearance:
The design is quite high, especially the glass plate. Even though this is a real magnetic dust. Otherwise: Beautifully. The remote control has been criticized by some, I had no problems and it does not work cheap MMN also.
Up & Connectivity:
The assembly instructions are short and relatively poorly illustrated. You do not really know what to do if you do not even played around a bit. Also, I did not make it that the device will not be able to swivel horizontally. No matter how tight the screw is turned back.
The connectors are easily accessible and intuitive.
Station search and sorting:
1 word: terrible. The search lasted more than 1 hour. But the most annoying thing was still; sorting. I'm technically not really awkward but for the meaningful stringing together 20 broadcasters took me to the really catastrophic menus for 30 minutes.
Image and sound:
The machine is set much too bright and glaring at the factory. If you have calibrated the image then (why do the manufacturers itself is not?), The greatest strength of the Grundig emerges. The image is crisp and color-absolutely pure. Small drawback - the right clearly visible Clouding which occurs through the technology Edge LED. Interferes with normal brightness in rooms not in lowered blinds even more.
However, anyone who has no external system at hand, is not happy with the built-in plate of crackers Grundig. No matter how set, the sound is always metallers and far too much treble.
Multimedia features:
I have tested the Smart TV function of the Grundig not in detail, but can say that it is absolutely immature. There are hardly any programs, though Youtube works, but advertising must be completely respected and the playback quality will not win any prizes.
From the USB stick can be indeed in many media formats play, but no high-definition video. At least then you realize that the processor is totally overloaded and jerky picture.
Games Platform:
I say it right: Really bad. Although the picture is good, but the Grundig struggling with a mad high input lag of more than 120 ms. This may sound a little at first, but a reasonably modern computer monitor creates loose 10ms. As a result, Shooter and the like are totally unplayable. The image responds too late and at halfway accurate aim is not to think. On demand at Grundig on Facebook (the telephone hotline leaves a wait forever and the staff speak only bad German) was explained to me that the image kinds image improvements are subjected. This delay. I was advised to switch off the improvements or I would have just "bad luck". Said and done. No improvements. So? "Bad luck". There is simply no solution.
Conclusion:
For pure television or even a movie night with BluRay player really good TV. For players like me absolutely inappropriate.
// I got the Samsung UE50F5570SSXZG me now who does not have all the above mentioned problems. For about 100 more. Have the Grundig sold to a family member who does not play and thus is very satisfied.
