RATING: 3 out of 5 stars

Welcome to a review of the Westinghouse EW32S5KW LED HDTV. This Westinghouse model features a slim, contemporary design that will easily fit on any wall or space in your home. Its light weight makes it effortless for almost anyone to mount and set-up. There are 2 HDMI inputs located on the side of the set where you can hook up your PC, sound system, or gaming console. There is also a port for you to connect headphones. The USB port is used only to upgrade software, there is no internet connectivity. The quality of the images that this model delivers is excellent for a 720p resolution TV. The colors are bright and vivid, and images are crystal clear. A few consumers have noticed occasional dead pixels whereby a return can be made for another TV.

The remote used for this model is RMT-17.

The sound quality leaves a lot to be desired. It is adequate but not of the highest standards. This occurs frequently with many slim, flat screen TVs. To resolve this issue speakers or good quality sound system can be attached to one of the HDMI inputs. Once your sound system is attached, the sound quality will be greatly improved and will enhance your TV viewing experience.

On the down side, in any given lot of TVs sold, there will be a handful that are duds and stop working within a minimal timeframe, sometimes within weeks. To avoid this headache, it would be wise to purchase a warranty, therefore you are covered should you be the buyer of one of these poorly manufactured TVs. Overall, this model is a good bargain.

Westinghouse EW32S5UW 720p LED HDTV

FEATURES:

• High definition resolution
• 100,000:1 Dynamic contrast ratio
• Slim, lightweight design
• PC connection
• Sleep timer
• Energy efficient

REMOTE: RMT-22

RATING: 3.5 out of 5 stars

Welcome to a review of the Westinghouse EW32S5UW LED HDTV. What draws most customers to this model is by far the low price of the set. They are very pleased with the amazing quality this model delivers for the price. The screen is a nice size and easy to mount and set-up due to its light weight. This model unfortunately has only 2 HDMI inputs but is enough for the average user. A blu-ray, sound system, or game console can be attached. Features and connections are basic but this set was made with simplicity in mind. There is no internet connectivity nor is the set capable of 3D. The resolution is 720p, as opposed to 1080p, however the difference is not easily visible unless you are really close to the TV. The 176 degree wide vertical and horizontal angles allow easy viewing from anywhere in the room. The picture quality provides beautiful color and contrast and crisp, clear images. The complaint most noted by customers is that in order to activate the digital tuner, one must place a phone call to Westinghouse to get a code. While this can be bothersome, it should not deter you from purchasing this model that not only saves you money but delivers a suprisingly excellent theater-like viewing experience.

The part number for the remote control that accompanies this set is RMT-22. The remote is easy to use and navigate.

As with many flat screen TVs on the market today, sometimes sound quality is not the best due to the slim design of the unit. This does not need to be a problem. By attaching a sound bar, speakers or a good quality sound system, you can achieve excellent sound quality, thus enjoying your TV to the fullest. Together with the excellent picture quality, all you need to feel like you’re at the movie theater is a big bowl of popcorn.

PROS:
• Great price
• Easy to set-up and mount
• Wide viewing angles

CONS:
• Average sound quality
• Only 2 HDMI inputs
• Need code from Westinghouse to activate tuner

The LED technology is great but does require some calibration out of the box, as colors seem a bit too saturated. The best thing to do to enhance your picture quality is to turn up the back lighting and turn up the brightness.

The bottom line, this budget model TV is a fair price for the features it offers.

PROS:

• Multiple A/V inputs, including 2 HDMI and 1 USB port

• Headphone jack and coaxial output

REMOTE: 504Q4605101

RATING: 2.8/5

Welcome to a review of the HAIER LEF2280 LED HDTV SERIES. This models external design is characterized by a glossy black finish, rounded corners and a swiveling pedestal stand. In all, it has been stated that the look is attractive with its sleek design. The picture quality of this series would be OK for an entry-level set if not for its lack of uniformity. Unfortunately it does suffer from these issues, such as brighter areas in certain parts of the screen and discoloration in others, which cause it to get a fairly large knock in terms of overall picture quality and performance.

The LE55B1381 has two component inputs and 3 HDMI inputs which provide a simple solution for high quality audio and video input. The USB input can be used for video, audio and digital pictures.
The feature set on this TV is about as bare as it comes, but for the price range it is satisfactory. The remote control that comes with this series is the 504Q460510 which will operate all the normal functions for your TV.

Although the TV has some decent points to it, the serious uniformity flaws make it difficult for the buyer on the hunt, especially with many other competitor options out there.
