Customer Review: Waste of Time
What is the point of selling a Freeview TV that doesn’t give sound in freeview mode? We got a replacement TV before we cottoned on. Have now asked for our money back. The TV doesn’t do what its advertised as doing so don’t buy it. The whole point of getting a freeview TV is to get rid of the box. Have now asked for money back.
Wouldn’t say don’t buy the brand but this item seems to have a built in fault.
Customer Review: Audio problems
I find the picture quality very pleasing for a set this cheap.
I have found the same problem as the above two reviews though, in that the sound for the built in freeview does not work, and also the EPG does not work correctly. I have also found that for my Xbox 360, plugged into the yPbPr sockets, in order for the sound to work correctly, I must plug the audio plugs into the tv’s output sockets. Perhaps incorrect wiring inside?
I have emailed Compacks well over a week ago and have not recieved a reply as of yet.

Customer Review: Great TV but won’t work with older XBox 360
I reluctantly returned this TV to Amazon for a refund as it suffers from a problem when used with one of the older non-HDMI XBox 360s. Every 15 minutes or so the screen goes black for a few seconds then resumes. It quickly became very annoying hence the return for refund. After reading AV forums I bought a Microsoft VGA cable to connect the XBox but the TV wouldn’t accept the 1080p signal from the XBox, only the 720 signal. As I’d bought the TV purely to see the XBox in all its HD glory I decided to return the TV….
Customer Review: Worth the money
If you’re thinking of buying this, don’t hang about. The picture is fantastic. The onboard tuner(s) picked up everything at first attempt, both analogue and digital. I’ve hooked up a PC to it (DVI-D to HDMI at 1920×1080) resolution and it’s stunning. I have a few minor quibbles but nothing to justify docking stars. 1) The button for cycling through different aspect ratios is not on the main remote control panel, but under a little panel at the back of the remote. It’s something I change a lot and it’s inconvenient. 2) The OSD (on screen display) is a bit large and chunky for something which has such high resolution capability. As a result the text is often hard to read because there isn’t enough room to display much of it. If anyone can tell me how to alter the resolution for this, I’d love to know, but I suspect you can’t. 3) It’s slightly slower at changing channels than I would like - not enough to be a nuisance, but enough to be noticeable. Overall though, it’s got everything I wanted from a TV, plus many extras, and at 42″ it makes my old 32″ widescreen CRT look like a portable!
