Customer Review

Assembly:
It comes with an included (compared to the device a bit cheap-looking) plastic foot; alternatively can be mounted on the wall of the TV of course. For me, he is on the shelf, so that the assembly (= Installing the Stand using four screws) supposed to be done very quickly. Actually. In fact, this small step has cost me a lot of nerves, time and muscle strength, and the result is unfortunately far from satisfactory. The pilot holes are attached to the equipment that is woefully inadequate; you get the maximum screw halfway into the socket, then it's over. In x and try various aids has not been able to screw the screws so far that the TV actually is reasonably stable and wobble-free. A measurement with a toothpick has revealed that the bore is in fact much too short. This is completely incomprehensible how can you mess with such a modern, beautifully designed device with such a little thing for me ?! Attempts to resolve the problem through other (shorter) screws were also unsuccessful the TV wobbles back and forth and is anything but stable. So a great device it is impossible to attach securely with mini screws. As long as one does not affect the TV, it goes, but it's really just a matter of time until something happens. Ironically, in the manual repeatedly pointed out that the device must be absolutely sure to stabilize. Oh really? Here, the manufacturer would have to rework necessarily as shall arise in paying customers, who have opted against a wall assembly, shortly after unpacking annoyance.

Style:
Against the appearance you really can not say anything. The device looks very chic and modern. It is very flat and for its considerable size relatively easily (about 11 kg). The only drawback: The screen reflects a lot. Who wants to watch TV in daylight, is willy-nilly have to darken the windows. This problem is likely to exist but with most devices of this type. What bothers me is not that because I watch TV very often (1-2 times a month) and held my occasional DVD evenings naturally the evening. Rather, consider the mirror-factor in the choice of location if possible.

Initial / operation:
The operating instructions detail for me but only moderately helpful - many of the terms and abbreviations used tell me anything. But this is more a problem, because you can largely carry the device intuitively. As soon as the TV is connected to power and connected to all the necessary / desired devices, a menu pops up automatically, and you will be guided step by step through the initial installation. It's quick and does not require special technical skills. All TV channels are found, the connected devices are detected. Remember only a DVD player is connected with me. But you can also, for example, connect a game console or a PC. Also to play photos, music and videos on a USB flash drive is possible. Operation with the remote control is straightforward.

Picture & Sound:
Both are impeccable. The device offers rich colors and sharp images. The sound is good. I myself am spoiled when it comes to television either (my old machine is a 15 year old tube radio) nor particularly demanding (for I look for rare). But the judgment of a critical friend in this regard clearly was positive he can be a downright euphoric his standards "Yes, fits already" carried away.

Overall a very nice device that comfortable to use and is technically well equipped. However, the defective assembly device is a real drawback and for such a device is not acceptable. Since the TV is good in itself and not the problem for many buyers thanks to wall mounting, I forgive anyway four stars. Had I purchased the product, I would, however, it returned despite its otherwise positive characteristics. A bobblehead as TV does not need a man.
