Product brief
Description: The Syntax-Brillian Olevia 537H is a 37-inch, LCD television.Compared to other LCD TVs on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $930.This product is an LCD display, which is generally the best kind of flat-panel screen for viewing in brightly-lit rooms.
Pros: Has two tuners, which is considerably more favorable than some similarly priced TVs.(Having two tuners comes in handy when you want to view two broadcasts at once, using PIP.)This TV can display images that are sharper and more realistic than analog television when mated to a high definition signal.The 3:2 pulldown feature of this set reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD.
Cons: None noted, given available product data.
Suitability: Made for those who want to enjoy an ultra-sharp picture from an ultra-thin TV.Also, a wide aspect display such as this one is ideal for DVD movies recorded in the popular 16:9 format, as well as high definition programming.
Value: In general, this TV's features are as expected for this price.However, LCD TVs with similar viewable size have an average cost of around $780.
Suggestions: (1) For assistance in shopping for a new HDTV, review CNET editors' Ultimate HDTV Buying Guide.(2) If donating or repurposing your old TV is not a viable option, CNET encourages households to recycle their electronics.Please explore the following website to find a recycling center in your area Electronics Take Back Coalition.
