STAY AWAY FROM IT!!!

Date of Review:  May 5, 2006
The Bottom Line: Please look elsewhere... Viewsonic, Sceptre, even sony though it's more money... it's probably worth it. Wouldn't even recommend to an enemy
Review: Don't waste your money!!! I beg you do NOT make the same mistake I made. HDMI INPUTS ARE USELESS!!! I called Tech Support, after hours of holding... a very unprofessional, discourteous man said " Direct TV screwed up, your HD BOX is not compatible...

Best bang for my HDTV money

Date of Review:  Jul 4, 2006
The Bottom Line: Best bang for your buck. I recommend this set highly.
Review: I picked up the Syntax 42" from Microcenter 17 days ago and am very happy I finally made the plunge into HDTV. I had originally thought I could only afford a 37" but seeing how the price of this Syntax 42" is lower than most 37's, this set is...

Great Value TV

Date of Review:  May 21, 2006
Review: I purchased this TV because of price, resolution and size. I have had it in service for only two days, but am very happy with everything so far. The TV was very easy to install even with its heavier weight than many other 42" flat screen sets. The...

Do not buy this product

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2007
Review: I purchased a 42 in. Syntax Olevia LCD in October. The picture is poor as there are streaks of light that run across the screen under dark viewing conditions (which is most of the time). I called Syntax many times, and after finally sitting through...

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2007

The LT42HVi is at the sweet spot for features and price.

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend the Olevia Syntax LT42HVi. It has the best price for its features, and it does well in side-by-side comparison with other LCD and plasma big-screen televisions.
Review: I purchased a Syntax Olevia LT42HVi and have been using it for watching DVD movies and playing video games. I am altogether pleased with the purchase.


The pros of the LT42HVi are:

* The 1,600:1 contrast ratio and 8ms...
