232T Great Value July 11, 2008 Great TV for Price (sub $600). Bought it for my bedroom as I have a Samsung 1080P in the living room. Does the job...amazing thing is that this TV looks better with std def channels than my 1080P. Don't need a cable box as the built in tuner grabs all of the OTA HD channels (just missing cable HD channels).
even my progressive scan dvd player looks great on it...which is suprising....meaning I don't need to invest in a upscaling DVD player
Only complaint is it only has 1 hdmi connection..but no an issue for me
Great product April 3, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just purchased this TV over the weekend, and I love it. The viewing angles are very wide. Sound is good, and it gives you the option to change the balance of sound as well as the bass/treble, which I love! I saw this TV in the store next to the Sony Bravia, and while the Bravia had better color depth, the definition on the Olevia was sharper and the picture more detailed. I'm very happy with my first HDTV purchase and think the Olevia is a great choice for someone looking for a moderately priced TV.
Great T.V. /SOund Problem Fixed (sorta) February 2, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ok, I bought this t.v. yesterday, got home, set it up, and it was perfect. Then while I was messing with the settings, the speakers started to hum. A really low buzz. I noticed this in many reviews, about the speaker noise. So I called tech support (very helpful). The rep had me go to the lighting settings and set it to "bright room". Bam, no more hum. I know it's a B.S. fix, but I know many people will have this problem, and start going crazy like I did.
Ok, the review.
Picture - Outstanding (just came from having a 480i)
Sound - Hahaha. Really good now!
Connections - One of everything. Could have more, but It works for me.
Menu - Kinda hard to master.
I give it 4 stars due to the sound problem. Hopefully a Firmware update will fix this.
Thanks
Great HDTV for the price! December 23, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this tv the other day and really like it alot. The picture is nice and the sound is good too. If you subscribe to an HDTV package with your cable or satellite service you'll be amazed at how clear and crisp the picture is. The only negative thing is the initial setup can be alittle tricky for newcomers to figure out. I already have 2 Olevia's so it wasn't hard for me. Because Olevia is kinda a new brand, you'll probably have to use 2 remote controls. I use my Olevia to turn it on and off and the volume button. I use the Direct TV remote for everything else. It's not really a big deal though. If you want a good HDTV, and don't want to spend the big bucks for the name brands that you've heard of, I definitely would get an Olevia. I've now got 3 of them and love them!
Great picture while it lasted November 3, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I purchased this TV for use primarily for use with a PS3 and was mostly pleased. Nice picture, intuitive displays, effective remote, nice input availability, etc.
Unfortunately, after a few months it began to smoke and let out a strong smell of burning plastic. Fortunately, it was still within the allowed return period. I am not sure whether or not Olevia brand televisions frequently require repair so early, but personally would not risk buying another Olevia TV without an extended warranty.
