Pros Price, picture quality, speakers on bottom, black frame
Cons Slow source change, occasional noise, no digital audio out, one HDMI input.
Recommended it? Yes

Couldn't resist the Black Friday price of this TV. It was the best price I had seen for any new 32" LCD costing under $450.00 after rebate. I am glad I purchased this unit although it is a tad small for my room, however, the over the air HD broadcasts are spectacular. I do get a little noise (a... Read full review »

Great HD-TV

8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Picture is clear. Remote works great.
Cons The speaker performance is poor. Crackling noise intermittent.
Recommended it? Yes

The TV has very good value for the money. Changing source does take a few seconds but doesn't really bother me at all. Hooked up my up-scale DVD player up to the TV and it work wonders. The speakers are placed at the bottom so it takes up less space.

The menu on the TV is not so bad as... Read full review »

Pros Very Reasonable Price, Great Picture Quality, Ease of Use, Well Back-lit Remote
Cons Documentation on CD only (can be printed), Slow Response Changing Channels, On-Board...
Recommended it? Yes

The extremely attractive price was the first thing that caught my eye about this model, but it was only after doing a bit of on-line research and reading all available reviews that I decided to order it.

Once I had the 532H hooked up properly (with some phone assistance from my local... Read full review »

Olevia TVs - steer clear!

bysmargison Jul 20, 2007
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros When it works it does what it is supposed to do
Cons High failure rate, very slow to power up and be "ready"
Recommended it? No

I am now waiting for a replacement Olevia 532 LCD TV. This will be the fourth unit in under a year. My equipment is wired properly and protected better than most commercial installations -- I'm an electronics engineer and pro audio engineer so I know it is not me. They do replace them under...

The Olevia 532H is stunningly good

Pros Spectacular picture, that wows everyone who sees it. Attractive price.
Cons Lack of interoperability with universal remote. Only 1 HDMI input.
Recommended it? Yes

Update after a little over a year with this TV: We remain very happy with this TV. We have had no problems with it. The only issue we had was that we lost sound in one channel--this turned out to be because of a bad connection in one of the cables from the cable box. We might therefore be tempted...

Poorly built television

6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros picture quality was good to start but declined
Cons costly repairs on parts that should not need replacing

This is a poorly built television that is not backed by a quality warranty or support team. The main picture board needs replacing after 18 months costing at least $350 plus shipping. Read full review »

Pros Great picture, many inputs, good on-screen menu, great value.
Cons Universal and cable remotes don't support this TV.
Recommended it? Yes

This is our first HDTV, and we just love it. The picture is exceptionally crisp and clear on HD, very good on standard TV and with standard DVD. It is fairly easy to use with an intuitive and simple on-screen menu. Remote is decent, it lights up, and it is OK to use. For the price, it is absolutely... Read full review »

Don't buy an Olevia....

bymyopinion1957 Jun 19, 2008
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Was pretty for a short while....Don't buy an Olevia....
Cons Broke very early.....Don't buy an Olevia....
Recommended it? No

We don't watch TV very much....maybe 12 hours per week. 13 months after purchase the main board went out. Olevia says they will "pay" labor, but we have to ship it and buy the main board at $250. What does it take, 15 minutes to swap out this $25 (their cost) board?

Don't buy an Olevia.... Read full review »
