Which Size HDTV is Right for My Room?
 | With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get.

This is an inexpensive integrated DVD and 19-inch LCD HDTV. So I wasn't expecting the best quality.
With default "middle" settings, the colors are washed out and too bright. Also, faces appear a little too pink. I fiddled with the brightness, contrast, color and tint settings and found a reasonable compromise. Not great but OK.
The volume of the TV and DVD are quite different. The DVD at 100% is about the same as the TV at 50%. When on my treadmill I have the TV set at about 80% (turning it up any further seems to have little additional increase in perceived volume). It's just barely enough to hear. The DVD is hopeless even at 100% and will not overcome the volume of the treadmill at all. This issue is common for sets of this size, so I wouldn't consider this a unique issue.
The volume for playing CDs has he same issue. The audio quality playing CDs is absolutely horrid: tinny and compressed. Even with headphones.
Functionally I don't like the way the DVD works versus the TV. It would be nice if I could bounce between the two at whim and pick up where I left off. Unfortunately, switching to a non-DVD function basically turns off the DVD completely, so when you come back to it, you are starting over and have to scan your way back to where you think you left off.
Channel switching with digital channels is an issue. This works OK but sometimes there's a delay. It works best in analog channels, with fairly little delay. But in digital channels it can get really fussy. You go up channel by one and you can wait a few seconds before you finally get signal. If there is no signal, or not a perceivable one, switching to the next good channel or typing it in can take forever. A solid minute before the set becomes responsive. Pretty bad. Not sure what causes that.
For aesthetics, I would prefer the cable connect below rather than the side. Coax cables are fairly stiff and need room to bend, so it looks rather ugly hanging out the side of the TV to give it room to make it's way around.
UNBELIEVABLE! I left an objective review on Favi's website where they had a couple of very positive reviews of he product. I wrote exactly what was working well and what wasn't. It was up for about a day, then they removed it! They are biasing the reviews on their site. No email or anything from their support department. I provided all my contact info.
I will NEVER buy another Favi or recommend them to anyone.

Color Name:Jet Black
Very nice small and light-weight HDTV/DVD with built-in QAM. I was not sure about the QAM which allows you to get HD signals without a cable box, but got a quick email answer from the mfgr./distributor confirming its presence. I sit 7-8' away and supposedly should get a 27-32" HDTV. Initially, other than some tinniness to the sound, I was quite pleased with the viewing experience: the picture is clear, bright, with text easy to read. I saw somewhere that it has a high-end Samsung LCD, which I understand is a plus.
Regarding the SOUND: By moving the balance from left to right and back again, I found that the tinny sound was due to a defective right speaker. I emailed the mfgr. and was immediately issued a pre-paid Fed-Ex label to return the TV. I received a replacement in about a week. The sound is now PERFECT: even Surround Sound ain't half bad, something you just wouldn't expect from a small TV. The volume is adequate more than adequate...in fact, when turned up I can hear it from 2 rooms away. Now THAT is power.
There are plenty of (easy) user adjustments, & various connectors (on the left side/back). The DVD player is on the right side/back.
The manual is simple; the remote is fairly intuitive; the unit is loaded with pre-sets and adjustments: brightness, sharpness, contrast, etc. You can amuse yourself for hours with just the buttons on the remote. ;) The most fun is the ZOOM located right on the remote: with it you can easily change the aspect ratio from normal to wide, etc...a clever idea that lets you get the picture just the way you find most comfortable, especially since we are still getting both analog and digital signals which come in a different ratio. Under "menu," again there are many choices: ex., there's one for "normal," "warm" or "cool," which changes the picture colors' warmth just a bit.
This TV is light & thin, easy to move (I really didn't want a 30-40 lb. monster). It can slip in almost anywhere without worrying about angle of view or light interference. It came quickly with very good, easy to re-do packaging. The only thing I would have loved to see is the DVD be a DVD/R. But I guess ya can't have it all. ;)
Oh, and I might add: I use a splitter from just the cable with no box. However, my splitter is powered. I have 4 things plugged into it. The FAVI is connected by a co-axial cable stated to be shielded and good for HDTV. It works fine. As a test, I had 3 TV's and the internet running at the same time with no loss anywhere. A powered splitter is essential for more than one TV off cable without a box...of ANY make or model.
I used to work with digital imaging in medicine. I have more than a "good eye," and am EXTREMELY PLEASED with the FAVI's handling of both analog and digital signals. I highly recommend this quality, light-weight, easy to handle, fun HDTV, with QAM, and excellent support! Although I had a problem with the sound at first, the problem was quickly solved by the very pleasant mfgr/disributor.

I bought this to receive over air HDTV with just antenna-no cable or dish.
In St Paul MN I can get 25 digital stations. I have 2 other HDTVs and this one has the best reception. You need the right antenna though. This one works great indoors- Antennas Direct DB2 Multi Directional HDTV Antenna and its available on amazon. The DVD player woks great too. It plays DVDs my other player cant read.
