Excellent value for money
Good sound
Clear picture
Simple to set up
Slight 'pincushion' distortion on picture
It doesn't handle 4:3 pictures well
I bought the JVC AV28EX5BK widescreen IDTV for less than £300, so it is difficult to fault at this price level. The tuner is very sensitive and gives excellent reception on all Freeview channels, even though I live in a fringe reception area (the Freeview web page tells me that my postcode won't receive all channels, but the JVC pulls them all in effortlessly).
Two criticisms have to be made however : -
Vertical and horizontal lines near the edge of the screen have a noticeable curve, more so on 4:3 images.
There is no way to go straight from the EPG to the selected channel - when you exit the EPG the set returns to the channel you were on when you entered.
