Good value for money.......2007-12-22
I bought this product because it was the cheapest unit in the 26"+ size range. I connected the Cable, did a station search and was ready to go.
The Standby LED, switches off when the TV is on, and switches on when the TV is in standby mode. Since this LCD is fairly bright, I switched the unit off every evening using the TV's main power button. No settings/stations were lost due to this power cut.
I did not try to mount-it, so no comment.
I have no regrets from purchasing this unit without the extended warranty.
Awesome TV.......2007-12-17
This is a great TV. You can find it for far less than comparable lcd televisions of this size. I have had this model for about 4 months and I couldnt be happier. The visual quality is awesome, especially at HD level, and the TV itself has just about every type of connection you can have, from the normal stuff to connecting your computer screen to having an output for sound.
Heres what happens with the infamous remote: It works, first of all, 100%. But, you need to have direct line of sight with the receiver part, and sometimes it takes a few clicks to respond. But it does work. A universal remote purchase isn't a bad idea. I am considering it myself once I get some more other things like a new dvd player, etc.
So in the end I would absolutely buy this tv again, the visual and audio quality is great, and the price I got it for just blew all others out of the water.
Great price, great service.......2007-12-17
I've had my 227 for about 7 months now. At six months, the screen blanked out and all I could get was vertical color bars from that point on. I called tech support and they diagnosed the problem as a blown video processor. Olevia quickly replaced the blown unit without any obstacles or issues. I was very satisfied with their support staff and responsiveness.
The picture is good. I found that boosting the contrast was necessary to bring out the best possible image. The sound is good, as well.
The only real downside is the remote control's slow response. There is a short, but noticable, delay between the time you press the button on the remote and the television's response. It's not a deal buster, but something to be aware of.
Although it's not the greatest on the market, you won't find a better unit for the price.
The Ideal Second Television.......2007-11-03
Is this one of the best flat-screen TVs out there? Of course not. Nor should it be at its price point. But you will not find a better quality to price ratio on the market, and for this reason I give the Olevia 227v five stars. It may not be outstanding in any one area, but it offers good to excellent performance across the board. A few things you should know:
I'd rate the picture quality as very good, in absolute terms, especially with HD content, and sound quality as good. Just don't expect a lot from the built-in speakers. Relative to the price of the set, the picture quality is excellent.
The set is black, not silver as pictured here. The "v" designation stands for vertically mounted speakers, which makes this a very wide set for a 27" screen. Be sure you have the 34" of width that it requires! An "h" designation in the Olevia line stands for horizontally mounted speakers, which are at the bottom of the set.
Keep in mind that Olevia's "Big Picture Technology," advertised to stretch a standard 4:3 picture to fill the 16:9 screen without distortion only works with ANALOG SIGNALS! Chances are that you'll be connecting to a digital cable box--you must if you intend to use the preferred HDMI interface--and the Olevia will not stretch a digital signal. You're stuck with a 4:3 image with thick black bars at the side, unless you zoom it which cuts off the top and bottom of the picture. Even on "HD" television channels, broadcasters often transmit 4:3 programs, and you will not be able to stretch those to fill the screen, either.
The Olevia product line is confusing--you'll also find a 327v, 427v, and 527v, and they all seem to have the same specs. What's the difference? The 3 series lacks tuners, which may save you some money, and you don't need them if you connect to a cable box. It's also the only Olevia series to use a PixelWorks graphics processor, which some feel is inferior to the ATI graphics used in the rest of the Olevia line. The 2, 4 and 5 series share identical innards -- the 4 series is simply silver, while the 5 series offers some additional picture adjustments.
All of the Olevia 27" sets offer the same inputs, which cover just about every connection out there--but there's only one of each type, so keep that in mind! Ideally, you want to use the HDMI connection to link to your cable box.
What are the negatives? There are many reports of Olevia sets needing repairs after a year or two of use (when they're out of warranty), so that's something to consider. And tech support, by most accounts, is pretty much non-existent, with no response to emails or phone calls. I sent an email to tech support three weeks ago and never received an answer. Fortunately, i found the info I was looking for online, but caveat emptor.
Olevia 27 inch.......2007-07-15
I am very pleased with the color and overall quality of this unit. The sound is excellent.
Setup is a little tricky. I viewed the manual on CD, which came with the set. It could offer a little more explanation than it does. It took me about 15 minutes to set it up once I figured out the sequence of the programming.

Nice.... looks good but like Bose floor stands better.......2007-08-15
If you are spending that much money on a Bose system makes sense on getting these rather than some local ones.
