Weaknesses: Speakers, remote control

Kogan has come out with a range of high-definition LCD televisions which offer amazing value in terms of screen size. The prices are among the lowest in the market yet offering a wide range of features.

The Kogan 22-inch Full HD 1080p LCD TV is an ideal choice for a secondary use such as for caravans, kitchens or children’s bedrooms. It boasts of a respectable 1920 x 1080 resolution which provides satisfying high quality images. The Widescreen TFT- LCD display panel provided by Kogan delivers amazing high contrast images with progressive scan option up to 1080p.

The screen features full High-Definition (HD) support with an inbuilt HD digital tuner. This allows the viewing of digital channels without the need for an additional set top box. It also features a HDMI input which allows HD input from devices like PlayStation 3 and Blu-ray DVD players. The screen’s utility is extended with its ability to be doubled up as a computer monitor.

However, the HD technology seems to be outdated and could use an upgrade. Also, the speakers leave much to be desired for with disappointing sound clarity. It can be substituted with a home theatre system which can be connected directly to the digital audio port provided.

The screen can be plugged into a 12V input and can be wall mounted making it ideal for use on caravans or boats. A stylish piano black finish adds the finishing touches providing maximum value for money.
