WEBVTT

00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:06.640
so james and i haven't really reached a consensus on why exactly it is we are

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:10.400
doing this video do you mind grabbing an end oh wow i don't need it it's really

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:14.400
not very heavy but thank you anyway um

00:00:11.440 --> 00:00:17.920
he figures it's because uh well we keep doing all these cheap

00:00:15.920 --> 00:00:21.840
display videos yeah and then we were doing these walmart videos yeah so why

00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:26.720
not just make a sandwich of those two you know

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:29.279
what sure let's go with that so this is the

00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:34.559
on 43 inch led hdtv

00:00:32.160 --> 00:00:39.040
class full class and we are going to find out if how much does this thing

00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:46.160
cost i think 168 bucks some people have got it for 125 on clearance we're gonna

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:49.200
find out if the 43 inch 125 dollar tv is

00:00:46.160 --> 00:00:52.079
worth 125 dollars if it even makes it to

00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:56.079
you alive we're just shaking your head and this video is brought to you by

00:00:53.760 --> 00:00:59.680
storyblocks storyblocks offers you studio quality stock video clips for a

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:02.950
fraction of the cost check out storyblocks at the link in the video

00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:05.999
description

00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:15.200
i think we should actually assess the shipping and packaging of this it has a

00:01:12.479 --> 00:01:19.759
huge gen it's possible possibly it's possible that tyler drop kicked this but

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:24.240
i don't think so i don't think he did and the reason i'm doing a concern is

00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:29.600
because inside there's really not a lot of extra packaging so not only is this a

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:33.759
cheaper a hard type foam

00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:38.400
but this is cheaper among the hard type foam packing

00:01:36.880 --> 00:01:41.840
materials that i've encountered did you see the way that piece just came apart

00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:48.320
okay can we do a video together with you not throwing

00:01:46.320 --> 00:01:52.640
absolutely no subject of the video no it's in my contract

00:01:50.479 --> 00:01:55.799
there's nothing in front there's nothing in front

00:01:56.479 --> 00:02:02.719
small correction just after mine and james's uh styrofoam

00:02:01.119 --> 00:02:09.440
fight to the death we actually found that there is a little bit more protection on the panel side there's

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:14.879
this piece of cardboard it weighs like nothing the spec sheet says 18.5 pounds

00:02:12.720 --> 00:02:20.080
but it feels lighter doesn't it just because it's so big it's like there's

00:02:16.720 --> 00:02:21.360
nothing in it so there's our ir receiver

00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:26.319
on a little pcb there

00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:30.640
there's our stereo speakers that i have oh very high expectations for

00:02:28.959 --> 00:02:34.480
i will say that cheap tvs have come a long way in terms of their i o or at

00:02:32.480 --> 00:02:38.000
least i don't know this one has so it's got an audio pass-through so if you have

00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:41.440
HDMI audio coming in from your cable box or your console or whatever you can pass

00:02:39.519 --> 00:02:45.840
that through to your standalone speakers

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:49.840
optical um in or out

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:54.239
unclear at this time and then you've got actually component in as well as

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:59.680
composite and then you've also got uh three actually three hdmis count them

00:02:57.040 --> 00:03:05.280
three HDMI ports including one with audio return channel so that's neat okay

00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:10.080
what is this thing that some kind of old people connector and of

00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:14.159
course there's one usb port which i mean it's nice to have especially since this

00:03:12.239 --> 00:03:18.159
is not a smart tv so if you want to have any smart tv features you're gonna have

00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:21.120
to get like a fire tv stick or roku whatever they call theirs yeah so at

00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:25.519
least you can power something with it even if you don't want to just load

00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:28.239
videos onto a usb thumb drive and plug them into your tv like my parents did

00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:33.040
until actually i'm pretty sure they still do that it's got a base amount and you

00:03:31.519 --> 00:03:36.799
could probably just double sided tape it to the wall for how much it weighs i'm

00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:40.400
kidding don't do that but like holy crap and that's even with a metal backing

00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:44.080
like this isn't even a plastic backing like the panel itself must just weigh

00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:47.530
nothing and it's not like it has an external power brick or anything either

00:03:45.519 --> 00:03:51.700
wait where's the stand

00:03:52.480 --> 00:04:00.080
there you go that is not very impressive like i sincerely hope this thing is

00:03:57.200 --> 00:04:04.640
decent but this is one of the sort of issues that i take with low-cost

00:04:01.920 --> 00:04:09.760
electronics is that because they have a very limited lifespan both in terms of

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:14.799
how long they're gonna just continue to work and in terms of their features and

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:19.359
no real resale value they tend to generate a lot of waste it feels like

00:04:17.440 --> 00:04:23.280
compared to higher end stuff it depends on who buys these things if you look at

00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:28.560
their page it looks like who they're targeting are the type of the people who

00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:30.720
actually are still using a crt

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:35.600
do you guys see what just happened there on the description page it says is your

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:40.320
tv 20 years old and blurry you're lying so i think this is like for grandpa when

00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:46.800
he finally makes the switch because his giant crt is like just actually kicked

00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:46.800
the bucket after 25 years

00:04:46.880 --> 00:04:52.800
team lift team lift hold on hold on anything you can do with one hand

00:04:51.840 --> 00:04:56.560
no did you hear that

00:04:55.520 --> 00:05:03.199
i think we're okay i don't think anything cracked but yeah

00:04:59.840 --> 00:05:03.199
you gotta have something to push against

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:10.560
oh man this is great uh integrated button layout they like

00:05:08.960 --> 00:05:14.240
they have this on here as though that's some kind of desirable feature but

00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:21.680
instead of can i power it on is it plugged in instead of a joystick configuration it's

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:23.600
this like orbiting configuration

00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:26.639
that just kind of feels like nothing to the back of your hand and obviously

00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:31.600
you're not gonna like you're not gonna leave this stupid sticker here

00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:36.160
so you just have to kind of like guess this isn't even the good p like the good

00:05:33.919 --> 00:05:40.479
peeling peel this is just like tape yeah it just feels like a like packing tape

00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:43.759
oh like it's just my joy is so robbed

00:05:43.919 --> 00:05:50.160
oh bottom one's not too bad

00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:54.160
this is like lady in the oh i mean at least it does have an included

00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:56.800
remote control oh i wasn't going to show you that until later because i wanted

00:05:55.440 --> 00:06:01.199
you to struggle with the buttons on the back people in the house put your hands in

00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:06.000
the eggs you don't care then we don't care

00:06:02.960 --> 00:06:08.080
we've got picture modes oh it comes in

00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:11.680
eco by default that's interesting i wonder if that's

00:06:09.440 --> 00:06:14.240
part of their like good power efficiency ratings that they just like dim the

00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:20.400
freaking backlight out of the box kind of makes sense because a lot of the reviews on walmart's product page say

00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:24.080
how you absolutely must change it to dynamic picture mode

00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:27.280
video or graphic uh that could be like an image return

00:06:25.520 --> 00:06:32.960
retention thing oh you know what it might be is uh

00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:36.160
like like a limited versus full range mode maybe this will become more clear

00:06:34.880 --> 00:06:39.440
once we have a signal going through and you can actually see how it changes so

00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:44.000
what sound mode are we supposed to choose movie

00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:48.880
movie sound and dynamic picture is what everyone says makes it mint i think

00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:53.840
all right if mint is like a flavor you detest it's mint

00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:56.639
voice guidance voice vitamins

00:06:57.520 --> 00:07:06.240
please keep this on speed standard fast

00:07:03.440 --> 00:07:06.240
how do you like it

00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:13.759
i feel like we're disabling hal get it to sing daisy

00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:21.129
it sounds so sad

00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:29.120
okay all right all right all right all right i'm done i'm done

00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:33.280
oh let me help you with that thank you HDMI

00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:37.520
2 r HDMI

00:07:34.880 --> 00:07:39.680
2 car one girl

00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:46.960
p 60 hd

00:07:42.960 --> 00:07:49.520
so this was the uh hold on a second

00:07:46.960 --> 00:07:53.520
and yeah the fact that you got signal okay please

00:07:50.880 --> 00:07:55.919
don't interrupt me on the fact that we got a signal is

00:07:54.720 --> 00:08:00.080
actually pretty nice because there's a lot of people in the reviews saying how they

00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:04.639
either connected to the computer and it didn't work or they connected to a dongle and it didn't work or all these

00:08:03.280 --> 00:08:11.960
different things so so far i've connected this to an amazon fire stick and a computer and it's

00:08:07.599 --> 00:08:11.960
worked so bless up

00:08:15.280 --> 00:08:22.400
so graphic is how you get rid of over scan

00:08:21.280 --> 00:08:27.520
what so no it doesn't have to do with like uh

00:08:25.280 --> 00:08:32.959
limited versus full range black levels it's how you do like just

00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:36.800
scan like pixel one-to-one pixel mapping instead of having it over scanned

00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:40.959
it's been a while since i've looked at a 1080p display

00:08:38.560 --> 00:08:44.320
from this close it ain't great it's not a great experience i remember there was

00:08:42.959 --> 00:08:48.720
this guy that i used to go to lan parties with back when i had a life i

00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:52.640
mean sort of i went to land parties and i don't even think his was 1080p and he

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:58.160
was like yeah it's great i'm like yo it's like measurably like like with a

00:08:55.839 --> 00:09:01.360
like with a measuring tape like not great

00:08:59.760 --> 00:09:05.600
display adapter properties are these gonna come up that's weird i've never seen this fail

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:10.720
to come out is that because it

00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:13.200
you have no properties is that Windows you're homeless

00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:20.720
they don't call it Windows for nothing here have all the Windows Windows 10. at

00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:24.800
least they're allowing you to close them in whatever order you want all right so

00:09:23.040 --> 00:09:31.040
i guess probably like what we want to watch some content on it like

00:09:31.040 --> 00:09:38.399
really we're gonna watch mkbhd instead of our own channel you know what fine he's not

00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:42.880
gonna copyright strike us so i guess this was your agenda here you

00:09:40.560 --> 00:09:47.120
pulled up mkbhd because you figured well we want something with known good audio

00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:51.920
and we can't always trust ourselves so we can properly evaluate the speakers

00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:57.920
fine i can take it you clicked on this he sounds like ass

00:09:54.240 --> 00:10:00.160
no offense yeah like no offense dude

00:09:57.920 --> 00:10:05.680
the imac pro 10 grand for that machine the imac pro starts that somehow it

00:10:02.800 --> 00:10:08.800
really does sound like it's coming from like

00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:13.200
under the table or something i was watching infinity war yesterday on netflix and it was basically like

00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:18.000
everybody was in the bottom of a barrel but like like it somehow doesn't sound like it's

00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:21.839
coming from here it somehow sounds like it's coming from lower

00:10:19.839 --> 00:10:25.279
let's watch a trailer this is a great hold on this is a great freeze frame of

00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:29.040
him that's exactly my thoughts on this tv

00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:33.279
come on action i rewatched this recently it was still good i liked it

00:10:30.880 --> 00:10:38.000
did you put the on movie mode now let me check let me check

00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:44.890
okay it's this no no it's working

00:10:46.160 --> 00:10:52.079
just like glitched out you're gonna go to the menu that's what you're doing

00:10:52.079 --> 00:10:58.320
this might actually be worse like i can barely like make out the

00:10:56.800 --> 00:11:04.160
dialogue even though this is like a trailer and typically the dialogue is

00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:08.240
so i did some uh i ran calman and i can i can i do a subjective

00:11:05.920 --> 00:11:11.279
evaluation sure did you see those they looked like weird artifacts in my

00:11:10.160 --> 00:11:15.920
eyes oh do you see that is that a compression

00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:20.240
issue with the playback or is that the tv that is not handling

00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:24.800
darks very well you can actually see the same thing in my mouth i actually need

00:11:21.920 --> 00:11:24.800
to grab a laptop

00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:30.720
no that's not present on the laptop

00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:34.320
what do you think of just the colors overall i mean

00:11:32.640 --> 00:11:38.399
they're not right but they don't stand out to me as

00:11:36.079 --> 00:11:43.600
particularly terrible there's not a lot of depth um there's some oversaturation

00:11:40.800 --> 00:11:48.160
going on in the default profile here at the very least it's less noticeable in

00:11:45.680 --> 00:11:51.519
this kind of a dark scene but here you can really see that's not a very

00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:55.279
natural look for me

00:11:55.279 --> 00:12:03.360
oh wow that is really overdone sorry people suggest this mode yes

00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:06.560
that doesn't even look like wood why don't you pull up the results here

00:12:09.040 --> 00:12:17.120
okay and this isn't dynamic or standard this one's dynamic the standard didn't

00:12:14.079 --> 00:12:20.560
fare too much better so to be clear guys

00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:24.079
a delta e of less than two is considered

00:12:20.560 --> 00:12:27.440
color accurate with less than five being

00:12:24.079 --> 00:12:30.560
fine for consumer grade this is anywhere

00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:33.519
from an average it's an average of 12.6

00:12:30.560 --> 00:12:38.399
and a maximum of 23. so we have dots here that are so far off their boxes

00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:45.600
it's hard to tell what box that it went with color space 97 of srgb is that right

00:12:42.560 --> 00:12:46.880
yeah that's actually not terrible

00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:51.200
should we play some games check out the input lag all right

00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:54.800
well if we had any doubt that the scalar in it is a steaming pile of hot garbage

00:12:53.680 --> 00:13:00.079
um resalmon it's a pokemon

00:12:58.079 --> 00:13:04.880
so we selected a fast-paced game to evaluate the tv's input lag because i

00:13:02.959 --> 00:13:10.240
could actually see this making a ton of sense for like

00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:13.680
just like a side room like a like a den or something where you just play video

00:13:11.920 --> 00:13:18.720
games and it doesn't need to be the most cinematic or kids like a rec room for

00:13:15.839 --> 00:13:23.680
the console gaming exactly exactly now that's weird is this like an open over

00:13:21.760 --> 00:13:27.680
sharpening artifact or is this because of the low res

00:13:26.079 --> 00:13:33.040
like these look at the edges of these strands they look like a cheap stereo 3d

00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:37.279
effect or something because of how sharpened they are now i

00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:42.800
had another idea you know how i was saying that it was hard for me to tell

00:13:39.920 --> 00:13:46.160
if the issue was uh to do with just the low resolution i haven't looked at a

00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:50.079
1080p display from this close-up in a long time

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:56.720
so we can figure out if it's sharpness or if it's low res by just adjusting it

00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:59.199
and it was definitely

00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.199
that's right

00:13:59.920 --> 00:14:05.680
wow that looks so much better

00:14:03.920 --> 00:14:09.760
and the crazy thing too is like yeah text here too

00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:14.399
same thing now i can make out the low contrast more easily now oh that was

00:14:12.560 --> 00:14:17.519
probably the eye no no it's still kind of there let's see

00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:23.440
how it's still there you know what though honestly it's not that hard to tell it's not bad

00:14:21.760 --> 00:14:26.959
like there's no game mode but and it's not amazing

00:14:24.880 --> 00:14:32.639
but considering this is a 60 hertz display

00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:34.800
this is very very usable for sure

00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:40.240
so really what it's competing with then is the scepter model that was uh how

00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:46.160
much 230 bucks so 50 bucks more and how big 50 inches 50 inches now with scepter

00:14:44.079 --> 00:14:50.560
we actually had pretty good luck with those guys when we did the cheapest 4k

00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:56.000
monitor on amazon that was a scepter but we got a peach we got a good one and

00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:59.360
from the reviews on amazon they're pretty hit or miss there's lots

00:14:57.440 --> 00:15:02.480
of lemons so what would you do do you buy this one turn the sharpness

00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:06.800
off and enjoy the the dynamic theater

00:15:05.199 --> 00:15:10.320
quality sound oh yeah you have to factor in an extra 70 bucks for an entry level

00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:13.199
sound bar just so you can hear dialogue if you're watching the evening news so

00:15:11.760 --> 00:15:16.720
at that point i think i would just spend the money get a little higher or if if

00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:21.279
you want to cheap out just get something used so we want to hear from you guys in

00:15:18.800 --> 00:15:26.000
the comments below they both had kind of bad speakers and kind of bad color this

00:15:23.920 --> 00:15:29.920
one had worse color but do you take the scepter

00:15:26.959 --> 00:15:37.519
4k but smaller display that we featured last time or do you take the on

00:15:33.839 --> 00:15:38.959
1080p 43 inch one or do you just go used

00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:42.240
or do you step up a little bit in the product stack do you want us to take a

00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:47.279
look at that scepter 50 inch in the future let us know we will be reading them

00:15:44.880 --> 00:15:52.720
because i think we are far from done with cheap displays

00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:57.440
can it run at uh 120 hertz like can you overclock it did we try

00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:57.440
no i didn't try

00:16:00.800 --> 00:16:07.519

the stuff we featured at the link in the video description james and i are sort

00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:58.320
of not really in agreement

00:16:56.560 --> 00:17:03.920
about whether you should or shouldn't or whether this has any application whatsoever but i think what we all agree

00:17:01.839 --> 00:17:07.280
on is that we should probably have a styrene fight to the death

00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:14.000
grenade

00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:18.839
no i know

00:17:20.959 --> 00:17:26.240
the joke's on him though because i knew that i wasn't going to be cleaning this
