Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
A member of Syntax's high-quality, low-priced Olevia family of HDTV-ready LCD TVs, the widescreen, 37-inch LT37HVE is perfect for style- and budget-conscious home theater buffs looking to integrate it with any of a range of video sources, from DTV set-top receivers to DVD players and VCRs. More than just a high-quality TV, the set's PC inputs also make it equally suitable for home offices. The 1,366 x 768 (WXGA) LT37HVE is even upgradeable to full-fledged HDTV status: you can replace its NTSC tuner module with an ATSC/DTV-capable tuner at a future date, improving the TV's already-excellent use of space.
A stunningly attractive black-and-charcoal bezel frames the high-quality flat-panel screen. Super-IPS (super-in-plane-switching) technology heightens color saturation, broadens viewing angles, sharpens images, boosts response time, and minimizes the visible color shift and distortion from any angle, resulting in exceptional, 178-degree viewing angles (for excellent picture quality from any seat in the room), a vivid 1,200:1 contrast ratio, and an incredible 8 ms response time for seamless, ghost-free, full-motion images with even the most demanding video games and action films. The TV also boasts an impressive brightness rating of 800 cd/m2.
LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life, and light weight/easy positioning. They also tend to be more affordable than their flat-panel plasma counterparts, which often (though not always) offer faster response times and higher contrast ratios. The TV's thin profile--just 5.6 inches--makes it easy to attach the set to a wall using an optional VESA-standard mounting kit (model WM-20D).
The LT37HVE performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal, too--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to display a frame-accurate picture.
A 3D Y/C digital comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).
The set has connections to spare, sporting a pair of HD-capable component-video inputs (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i), analog and digital PC inputs (15-pin D-Sub VGA and DVI-I with HDCP), and 3 each S-video and composite-video inputs. When connected to a PC using the analog input (monitor cable supplied), the TV functions as a high-quality multimedia display with the ability to simultaneously show TV or DVD movies on half the screen while letting you surf the Internet and access e-mail or PC documents on the other half. Dual built-in NTSC TV tuners permit split-screen, multi-image tiling, and picture-in-picture (PIP) viewing.
A pair of speakers driven by 20 watts each deliver high-quality sound. Want to enhance the sound from your movies and TV programs? Feed the set's dedicated subwoofer output to a stand-alone powered subwoofer to enjoy additional punch and an further degree of realism from your movies and music.
Other features include a built-in alarm clock, a sleep timer, V-Chip parental controls, auto dialogue tone correction, auto volume leveling (minimizing drastic swings in listening level between program and commercial), simulated surround sound, favorite channel, last-channel recall, closed captioning, and a multilingual menu accommodating English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
What's in the Box
TV, remote control, remote batteries, 1 VGA monitor cable, 1 composite-video/stereo analog audio AV cable, an AC power cord, warranty information, and a user's manual.
Product Description

Olevia LT37HVE 37" WS HD-R LCD TV,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT37HVE 37-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
this is my second wide screen TV, the other is a 49" widescreen
projection type, this is my 1st thin LCD Pros: (1) crisp and clear picture, no bad pixels (2) good sounding speakers, audio presets in menu (3) stylish cabinet design, cool light over input terminals "only stays on for a little time though about 1 min, but still a good and cool idea" (4) POP12 = tv lover mode, source and swap between 13 screens, 12 mini around 1 main (5) prompt technical support (6) loads of inputs, vga support (7) OLEVIA name lights when TV off " this isnt so much a PRO, its just cool" Cons: (1) doesnt play all widescreen movies properly "make sure your dvd player is set to 16:9 or none of them will. I found this out when I 1st tried watching some DVD's, I e-mailed tech support about this and I recieved a correct responce within 1/2 an hour" (2) supports only 2 aspects 4:3, 16:9 "my other set has NORMAL 4:3, FULL 16:9 and an additional 3 THEATER aspects to choose from, so most movie aspect types are supported" (3) hazy, foggy movie scenes show patterns " I dont know how to explain this, for brief time tiny dark diamonds appear during foggy or hazy video playback" (4) takes 4.5 to 5 seconds to switch between video modes, and there is a sound hickup about halfway through the switch over. (5) poorly design'd remote, "it should have the nice, big number input at the bottom, and the hidden but vital controls at the top but not hidden..." (6) wall hanging bracket additional and expensive for the most part I like this TV, the video playback is crisp and as clear as the signal it recieves, the cabinet is attractive IMHO, the speakers produce good sound. BUT if I were getting it for a home entertainment system I'd be unhappy, the lack of aspect types means you will run into movies that play in a aprox. 26" diag format "Lake Placid widescreen version, for instance", but I'm not, so thats not so important, the 4.5 - 5 second long video mode switch over time, and BRIGHT blue screen, and audio hickup is annoying, the remote is odd, it has a standard layout "like a telephone" fairly large keyed, well labeled number input section at the top, a circular channel, volume, menu in the center, and a hidden "slide open/off" compartment, with important controls at the bottom, the problem is the slide cover is difficult to open, when you slide it off the remote looks incomplete, and creates sharper pointed corners, also the buttons are small and closely spaced, and are rather hard to read in low light, a bad design IMO. for the low Amazon price I paid, I can put up with these minor irritations...

Syntax 37 LCD a great buy,
By Mike (Newington,CT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT37HVE 37-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
This TV was really plug and play. Basically its take it out of the box plug it in and enjoy. HD television is fantastic. I made a mistake in the filing of a rebate on this product. The company was great about communicating with me and treated me very well. As in other reviews I would say the remote is the only weak part. Very vanilla and has to be aimed right on target. But the performance of the TV more than makes up for it. We really enjoy rental DVD's now. Its like being at the movies. I would definitly buy other products from this company. A great buy for the price.

A bargain for its size,

This review is from: Syntax Olevia LT37HVE 37-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)
For those looking for 37" LCD TVs for an affordable price, this is it. At first, the brand name made me skeptical because it's not exactly a household brand but after perusing through the other customer reviews and doing a little research on the TV's company, I decided to set aside my bias for well-known brand names.
I don't have cable and therefore can't critic on HD performance but DVD and VHS programs show great clarity and no pixelation even at close range viewing. Glare should not be an issue unless you have the whole set directly facing the sunlight. I also tested the set as a computer monitor and you would be amazed at what a pleasure it is to play your favorite computer games in full 37" widescreen glory w/o any distortions on the screen. The only minor drawback so far is that the speakers are permanently mounted and can't be detached but otherwise there are no problems with audio quality. After viewing the TV for almost a month now with no problems, I consider this one of my greatest finds and buys on the net. I highly recommend this set.
