this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0}],"full_text":"so james and i haven't really reached a consensus on why exactly it is we are doing this video do you mind grabbing an end oh wow i don't need it it's really not very heavy but thank you anyway um he figures it's because uh well we keep doing all these cheap display videos yeah and then we were doing these walmart videos yeah so why not just make a sandwich of those two you know what sure let's go with that so this is the on 43 inch led hdtv class full class and we are going to find out if how much does this thing cost i think 168 bucks some people have got it for 125 on clearance we're gonna find out if the 43 inch 125 dollar tv is worth 125 dollars if it even makes it to you alive we're just shaking your head and this video is brought to you by storyblocks storyblocks offers you studio quality stock video clips for a fraction of the cost check out storyblocks at the link in the video description i think we should actually assess the shipping and packaging of this it has a huge gen it's possible possibly it's possible that tyler drop kicked this but i don't think so i don't think he did and the reason i'm doing a concern is because inside there's really not a lot of extra packaging so not only is this a cheaper a hard type foam but this is cheaper among the hard type foam packing materials that i've encountered did you see the way that piece just came apart okay can we do a video together with you not throwing absolutely no subject of the video no it's in my contract there's nothing in front there's nothing in front small correction just after mine and james's uh styrofoam fight to the death we actually found that there is a little bit more protection on the panel side there's this piece of cardboard it weighs like nothing the spec sheet says 18.5 pounds but it feels lighter doesn't it just because it's so big it's like there's nothing in it so there's our ir receiver on a little pcb there there's our stereo speakers that i have oh very high expectations for i will say that cheap tvs have come a long way in terms of their i o or at least i don't know this one has so it's got an audio pass-through so if you have HDMI audio coming in from your cable box or your console or whatever you can pass that through to your standalone speakers optical um in or out unclear at this time and then you've got actually component in as well as composite and then you've also got uh three actually three hdmis count them three HDMI ports including one with audio return channel so that's neat okay what is this thing that some kind of old people connector and of course there's one usb port which i mean it's nice to have especially since this is not a smart tv so if you want to have any smart tv features you're gonna have to get like a fire tv stick or roku whatever they call theirs yeah so at least you can power something with it even if you don't want to just load videos onto a usb thumb drive and plug them into your tv like my parents did until actually i'm pretty sure they still do that it's got a base amount and you could probably just double sided tape it to the wall for how much it weighs i'm kidding don't do that but like holy crap and that's even with a metal backing like this isn't even a plastic backing like the panel itself must just weigh nothing and it's not like it has an external power brick or anything either wait where's the stand there you go that is not very impressive like i sincerely hope this thing is decent but this is one of the sort of issues that i take with low-cost electronics is that because they have a very limited lifespan both in terms of how long they're gonna just continue to work and in terms of their features and no real resale value they tend to generate a lot of waste it feels like compared to higher end stuff it depends on who buys these things if you look at their page it looks like who they're targeting are the type of the people who actually are still using a crt do you guys see what just happened there on the description page it says is your tv 20 years old and blurry you're lying so i think this is like for grandpa when he finally makes the switch because his giant crt is like just actually kicked the bucket after 25 years team lift team lift hold on hold on anything you can do with one hand no did you hear that i think we're okay i don't think anything cracked but yeah you gotta have something to push against oh man this is great uh integrated button layout they like they have this on here as though that's some kind of desirable feature but instead of can i power it on is it plugged in instead of a joystick configuration it's this like orbiting configuration that just kind of feels like nothing to the back of your hand and obviously you're not gonna like you're not gonna leave this stupid sticker here so you just have to kind of like guess this isn't even the good p like the good peeling peel this is just like tape yeah it just feels like a like packing tape oh like it's just my joy is so robbed oh bottom one's not too bad this is like lady in the oh i mean at least it does have an included remote control oh i wasn't going to show you that until later because i wanted you to struggle with the buttons on the back people in the house put your hands in the eggs you don't care then we don't care we've got picture modes oh it comes in eco by default that's interesting i wonder if that's part of their like good power efficiency ratings that they just like dim the freaking backlight out of the box kind of makes sense because a lot of the reviews on walmart's product page say how you absolutely must change it to dynamic picture mode video or graphic uh that could be like an image return retention thing oh you know what it might be is uh like like a limited versus full range mode maybe this will become more clear once we have a signal going through and you can actually see how it changes so what sound mode are we supposed to choose movie movie sound and dynamic picture is what everyone says makes it mint i think all right if mint is like a flavor you detest it's mint voice guidance voice vitamins please keep this on speed standard fast how do you like it i feel like we're disabling hal get it to sing daisy it sounds so sad okay all right all right all right all right i'm done i'm done oh let me help you with that thank you HDMI 2 r HDMI 2 car one girl p 60 hd so this was the uh hold on a second and yeah the fact that you got signal okay please don't interrupt me on the fact that we got a signal is actually pretty nice because there's a lot of people in the reviews saying how they either connected to the computer and it didn't work or they connected to a dongle and it didn't work or all these different things so so far i've connected this to an amazon fire stick and a computer and it's worked so bless up so graphic is how you get rid of over scan what so no it doesn't have to do with like uh limited versus full range black levels it's how you do like just scan like pixel one-to-one pixel mapping instead of having it over scanned it's been a while since i've looked at a 1080p display from this close it ain't great it's not a great experience i remember there was this guy that i used to go to lan parties with back when i had a life i mean sort of i went to land parties and i don't even think his was 1080p and he was like yeah it's great i'm like yo it's like measurably like like with a like with a measuring tape like not great display adapter properties are these gonna come up that's weird i've never seen this fail to come out is that because it you have no properties is that Windows you're homeless they don't call it Windows for nothing here have all the Windows Windows 10. at least they're allowing you to close them in whatever order you want all right so i guess probably like what we want to watch some content on it like really we're gonna watch mkbhd instead of our own channel you know what fine he's not gonna copyright strike us so i guess this was your agenda here you pulled up mkbhd because you figured well we want something with known good audio and we can't always trust ourselves so we can properly evaluate the speakers fine i can take it you clicked on this he sounds like ass no offense yeah like no offense dude the imac pro 10 grand for that machine the imac pro starts that somehow it really does sound like it's coming from like under the table or something i was watching infinity war yesterday on netflix and it was basically like everybody was in the bottom of a barrel but like like it somehow doesn't sound like it's coming from here it somehow sounds like it's coming from lower let's watch a trailer this is a great hold on this is a great freeze frame of him that's exactly my thoughts on this tv come on action i rewatched this recently it was still good i liked it did you put the on movie mode now let me check let me check okay it's this no no it's working just like glitched out you're gonna go to the menu that's what you're doing this might actually be worse like i can barely like make out the dialogue even though this is like a trailer and typically the dialogue is so i did some uh i ran calman and i can i can i do a subjective evaluation sure did you see those they looked like weird artifacts in my eyes oh do you see that is that a compression issue with the playback or is that the tv that is not handling darks very well you can actually see the same thing in my mouth i actually need to grab a laptop no that's not present on the laptop what do you think of just the colors overall i mean they're not right but they don't stand out to me as particularly terrible there's not a lot of depth um there's some oversaturation going on in the default profile here at the very least it's less noticeable in this kind of a dark scene but here you can really see that's not a very natural look for me oh wow that is really overdone sorry people suggest this mode yes that doesn't even look like wood why don't you pull up the results here okay and this isn't dynamic or standard this one's dynamic the standard didn't fare too much better so to be clear guys a delta e of less than two is considered color accurate with less than five being fine for consumer grade this is anywhere from an average it's an average of 12.6 and a maximum of 23. so we have dots here that are so far off their boxes it's hard to tell what box that it went with color space 97 of srgb is that right yeah that's actually not terrible should we play some games check out the input lag all right well if we had any doubt that the scalar in it is a steaming pile of hot garbage um resalmon it's a pokemon so we selected a fast-paced game to evaluate the tv's input lag because i could actually see this making a ton of sense for like just like a side room like a like a den or something where you just play video games and it doesn't need to be the most cinematic or kids like a rec room for the console gaming exactly exactly now that's weird is this like an open over sharpening artifact or is this because of the low res like these look at the edges of these strands they look like a cheap stereo 3d effect or something because of how sharpened they are now i had another idea you know how i was saying that it was hard for me to tell if the issue was uh to do with just the low resolution i haven't looked at a 1080p display from this close-up in a long time so we can figure out if it's sharpness or if it's low res by just adjusting it and it was definitely that's right wow that looks so much better and the crazy thing too is like yeah text here too same thing now i can make out the low contrast more easily now oh that was probably the eye no no it's still kind of there let's see how it's still there you know what though honestly it's not that hard to tell it's not bad like there's no game mode but and it's not amazing but considering this is a 60 hertz display this is very very usable for sure so really what it's competing with then is the scepter model that was uh how much 230 bucks so 50 bucks more and how big 50 inches 50 inches now with scepter we actually had pretty good luck with those guys when we did the cheapest 4k monitor on amazon that was a scepter but we got a peach we got a good one and from the reviews on amazon they're pretty hit or miss there's lots of lemons so what would you do do you buy this one turn the sharpness off and enjoy the the dynamic theater quality sound oh yeah you have to factor in an extra 70 bucks for an entry level sound bar just so you can hear dialogue if you're watching the evening news so at that point i think i would just spend the money get a little higher or if if you want to cheap out just get something used so we want to hear from you guys in the comments below they both had kind of bad speakers and kind of bad color this one had worse color but do you take the scepter 4k but smaller display that we featured last time or do you take the on 1080p 43 inch one or do you just go used or do you step up a little bit in the product stack do you want us to take a look at that scepter 50 inch in the future let us know we will be reading them because i think we are far from done with cheap
