Viore LC42FHZ55 Review: 42” LCD HDTV

Up for Review: Viore LC42FHZ55 LCD TV. Most of the features of this HDTV are the same as in the other Viore models. But the main feature which makes it stand apart is the 120 Hz technology. This refresh rate is extremely good for the fast action sequences where you can’t see any dragging of images. Further, there is no blurring or lingering behind of pixels. You can now watch fights in movies and car races in sports sequences without being disturbed by bad picture quality.

The Viore LC42FHZ55 also has 1920 x 1080 resolution which gives you the thrill of experiencing a home theater effect. The images are brilliant with each object outlined clearly against the background. The high brightness levels also contribute to the good quality images. The contrast ratio is high but can still be higher. However, the black levels are decent even though they are not outstanding. There is scope for improvement in the contrast ratio. Viore engineering delivers on the brightness and contrast grounds but needs further impetus for improvement.

Viore LC42FHZ55 Features and Specifications Review:

  • 42” display
  • Integrated ATSC tuner
  • 1080p display resolution
  • 2 HDMI
  • VGA port

  • 500 cd/m2 brightness
  • 16:9 aspect ratio
  • Built-in speakers 8 x 2 W
  • 120 Hz technology

The presence of an integrated ATSC tuner makes it possible to get over-the-air signals to watch television programs on the TV. A set top box will be needed when you want to watch encrypted channels. Free-to-air programs can be watched with the help of this tuner. It is best for HDTV broadcast reception. The color of the HDTV is good with the images looking their natural best. Every little variance in color shade is shown in the images. But the color tends to wash out at the edges. It is always better to sit directly in front of the TV to get a good view.

Connectivity is good with 2 HDMI and a VGA port. It is possible to watch movies on the DVD player or view videos on the camcorder. You can also enjoy playing games on your gaming console by connecting through HDMI. The reception is great and the images are true-to-life. The VGA port enables the HDTV to be used as a computer monitor. This HDTV comes equipped with a very good remote control too. It is a fine fit in the hands and the buttons are spaced apart to access all the features with ease. Buying the Viore LC42FHZ55 will give you a good HDTV with all the requisite features. Its competitive price is also an added attraction.
