Summary: Bargain full feature and stylish HDTV 2008-08-26
Comment: We've had this TV for several months. We needed a TV that fit in our built-in entertainment center (no wider than 42") at the new home we moved into. I went through BestBuy, Sears, Circuit City, Office Depot, Target, etc. looking at all the TVs. Most of the TVs out there are high glare, high gloss, and lacking basic conveniences such as accessible controls and a headphone jack that is within reach. We narrowed the choices down to Sony KDL-40V3000 (metallic/brushed steel frame, not glossy) or the Olevia 242T. First I brought home a 242T Olevia, but found the company had repackaged it in a 542T casing (meaning top heavy, and just plain heavy), and the 542T was an older model. I bought the Olevia from Office Depot. When I got home, my husband said, "are you sure this is what you wanted?" and I said "no." I think the Olevia company was trying to economize by repackaging their 242Ts in older casings that were very heavy. Target had 242Ts that were 62lbs, while the repackaged ones at Office Depot were 97lbs. Missing from the Olevia was the dark tube background (is more of a medium gray), and no accessible head phone jack (hidden in back), and the bezel casing was plain ugly.
Then on to the Sony I tried to buy. A floor model came available for a more reasonable price at Circuit City. The sales person kept telling me he was busy doing something or another at cash register, so wasn't able to purchase. I went back next day and it was gone. The Sony had more direct HDMI imputs, but was also missing an easy to access headphone jack. Also the problem with Sony is the cartoonish effect of the colors, as the tube is really too black. I've always been a Sony fan, but their flat panels are too saturated in color I find. Also the on-unit controls were somewhat hard to see.
Then we found this 37" Hannspree. I've always enjoyed walking through the Hannspree store at Union Square in SF and always thought I'd like one of their cool TVs. I'm into mod styles, and this TV fits the mod era. It also has a high quality casing, matt screen, finished look (great for our exposed media center where sides of TV are exposed), dark but not too dark tube/background, and we love that the controls are low where our kids can reach them (as they are in charge of the electronics now). Also my husband and I are happy that we can easily plug our Bose headphones into the side of the TV and watch movies, using a splitter we can both use headphones and not wake the kids.
Here are the Cons: This TV only has 1 HDMI imput, meaning I had to buy an OPPO HDMI hub for our TIVO, SONY DVD upconverting player, and Comcast Digital box (we haven't bought a home theater system yet). Also, no remote control seems to recognize this Hannspree TV, so I programmed the Sony RMVL600 to do everything (Tivo, Comcast, Hannspree, Sony DVD player). Programming a learning remote may not be for everyone, but I found it quite effortless really, and retired all the other remotes. The TV is a stand TV, not wall mount (ok for us), and it is still pretty heavy. Also, when we need to plug or unplug things, hard to swing around as feet on edge of table. We have to use a secondary table in order to plug things in. There is some glare from the chrome legs that bugged me at first, but am used to them now (still much better than glare on the actual screen like so many of the plasmas, or on frame like most all the others have with their "piano black" gloss finishes).
Overall, found this TV to be a great deal for under $1000! No others even came close for the price!

Summary: The best TV in the world. 2007-02-25
Comment: I just bought this model in a 32 inch and had to share.
I am in love with this television. It looks great even when its not on. Designed to be seen from all angles, so its great in the center of a room, not just against a wall. The faux wood on the back/sides is really sweet looking. The picture is great. Sound is amazing...much more volume and dimension than i expected. I have a speaker set and subwoofer for my previous tv that i have now retired...the tvs speakers deliver much better sound. Controls are simple, overall theres a well designed simplicity that reminds you of products from Apple.
Hannspree is a brand i support...quality and design are uncompromised all around. They obviously take great pride in their product. Now that its in my living room, i can't imagine having bought anything else.
