Can you take a gander at this:

and let me know whether its a decent buy or not. Bearing in mind I've never heard of the company and have no idea whether an 8ms response time is good or bad...

Hanspree are very well regarded in LCD screens. Ours is excellent.

I've had a look, and it's very nice! Just two very minor quibbles:

• only one HDMI input (though it does have an additional component video). If you want to connect more than one HD thingy, this is something to think about
• 450cd/m2 is not the brightest screen out there. It'll be fine though, unless you've got a really brightly lit living room.

One other thing to watch out for - the contrast ratio is only 750:1.

The contrast ratio is basically the difference between the lightest and darkest colours that it can display. You want as high a contrast ratio as possible to get sharp definition between the light and dark areas on the screen - some TVs have a contrast ration of 8000: 1 or even higher, so 750:1 for this model isn't great.

It's not bad for the price - but it's a case of only getting what you pay for.

It is old technology for cheap, or not so cheap - as it is that dated.

Hannspree are famed for making novelty televisions.

The panel is HD 720 only, and it's picture quality will be worse than a standard CRT.

Not bad for the price.
