Technika does me proud.

Advantages: Price !
Disadvantages: None as far as I can see.

...About six weeks or so ago we had to replace our television and before setting out to buy a new set we decided to look around on the Internet to see if there were any extra good deals out there. After looking at the electrical giants websites we then had a trawl around the major supermarkets electrical departments and it was there that we came across the Technika LCD22-208. We must have been lucky because we paid £165 for our Technika television whereas it is on the Tesco Direct website priced at £180 at the moment. Our old set was cumbersome to say the least and we always said that as soon as it had to be renewed then we would both like a flat screen television, I like the sleek and slimline television sets. We only have a small lounge which means that a large screen would be overpowering so we made a joint decision that a 22 inch...

Technika Television

Advantages: Compact, Stylish
Disadvantages: Slightly slow software

...Technika television all though not a very common or well known brand is a exptional product of very high quality. I own and am very pleased with my Technika television that we purchased from our local Tesco store. It was easy to install with auto setu so it's basically plug it in and it's all ready to use. The quality of picture is very good and does not have any reflections from the sun shining on it that i have found very irritating when you are trying to watch something on other brand of televisions. The picture is sharp and well contrasted with brilliant colour. The sound is also very high quality never fuzzy and never any varied volumes. The television itself is in a subtle silver colour fitting in well with any bedroom colour a credit to the room itself. It is none bulky and doesn't take up much space making it easy to be...

Technika LCD 22-408 LCD TV

Advantages: Brilliant features, at a low price
Disadvantages: None that outweigh the bargain price

...I also bought this TV from Tescos for just over £200. A great purchase. For the price you pay, the quality of picture is perfectly decent, and sound fine. Not really a main TV, but great for a bedroom or small area e.g. kitchen. Functionality is superb - built in DVD, ipod, HDMI etc. Can watch ipod videos as well as use it as a speaker system for the ipod with ability to control ipod from remote. Overall I am more than happy, and think this TV is awesome value for money/features. One piece of advice - when conencting your ipod to the TV (especially ipod touch or iphone) you need to switch off the wifi on the ipod (wireless connection) as this interferes with the TV speakers, which I intially thought was either a fault or slight negative re the budget TV - but actually isnt! So overall my advice is - if this is to be a second...

Great value TV

Advantages: Excellent value, good range of features
Disadvantages: Little known manufacturer

...When I did some work on my kitchen a couple of years ago I decided to install a little LCD TV on a wall bracket so that I could rotate it to watch the TV in the kitchen or the dining area. It worked just fine and the little 15" LCD TV was OK. Well it was until I realised I could also watch the TV out in the conservatory and then, to be honest, the picture just wasn't big enough! I got to thinking that a 19" TV was what was needed and started looking around for something suitable that wouldn't actually break the bank. One day when wandering into TESCO I spotted a big pile of Technika 19" TVs on offer. The price tag said they were reduced from £179.99 to £149.99 and they just seemed too much of a bargain to pass them by. I thought about it overnight and popped back to TESCO the following day to put one in my shopping trolley...

Technika 8" digital photo frame good value for money

Advantages: 1GB internal memory built-in, easy of use
Disadvantages: May not be recognized by certain computer e.g. XP Home with AMD chip?

...My Mrs wanted me to buy a digital photo frame because our friends have recently got one. So I started to look at the most common 7" frames and then she said they are a bit small. The next one up is 8" but with much less choices. That is not too bad because it is easier to make a decision. It was down to the final two - Tesco's Technika SR08 or the Linx 8" from Amazon. While I was browsing and investigating at my leisure, Amazon suddenly raised the price from £52.43 to £78.28! This makes the Linx too expensive. So I have just bought the Technika SR08 from Tesco Direct for £58.48 instead. The set up was easy - plug and play (well not quite that straight forward, see below). For the picture display the screen resolution is 800 x 600 pixels, better than the Linx DPF. However the manual did not mentio the screen...

The Queen on .tv!

Advantages: layout, design, information, photos
Disadvantages: /

...I would say there are six websites that I could not live without. I would not say that it is a mixed bag of sites - it is either money making related or media related. One of these media related websites is the official website of my greatest inspiration in life. She is such a wonderful person, and a perfect role model. Who is this woman? Of course, it's Andrea McLean! If you for some reason do not know who Andrea McLean is, then I am a tiny bit offended! She was a long running weather girl for GMTV, only to give up that post a few months back. She is now the main anchor of ITV daytime chat show phenomenon Loose Women, a job I would kill for. She is one of the most amazing TV Presenters around, and has such a wonderful personality. The day I met her was one of the most amazing days of my life, a moment I will treasure forever. She...

brilliant tv and pc monitor

Advantages: fantastic value for money
Disadvantages: none

...what a brilliant tv and pc monitor I bought this as a replacement for my pc monitor but decided that a tv would be good as well. seen Technika in Tesco store and knew that they would replace it if there were any problems. Guess what, need not have worried. Nice wide screen , good colours , good audio just a bloomin good machine. i use it primarily as a monitor but it useful to switch to tv when loading programs or when scanning the pc. It was cheap, but for a widescreen tv with freeview how can you go wrong. I would certainly recommend this tv and will buy Technika goods in the future as they seem to provide such good quality and value for money. Plus you get Tesco clubcard points as well....

TV Quick

Advantages: *
Disadvantages: *

...I still live with my parents and this is the TV magazine that they buy. I don't see the point in buying another TV magazine just for me. I read this magazine more than I actually watch the television. Due to exams, drama, sign language and ciao I don't watch very much television. However, every now and then I do sit down and watch an episode of Eastenders or Coronation Street, with my mam. I don't need to watch every episode to know what is going on. Apart from the fact that usually nothing much is happening, I can read the TV quick to catch up. TV Quick come out weekly and costs 70p. We get it delivered from our local newsagents with our newspaper. We usually get it on the Tuesday, before the TV listings in the magazine starts. I say magazine because it is more than just a TV listing. To write this review I'm looking at a copy...

TV at its best!

Advantages: A real Looker, Efficient and great picture
Disadvantages: Nothing to report

...The Samsung LE40B530 is a thing to behold! it looks elegant and stylish and keeps up with the usual samsung look I am used to seeing. I think as far as tvs go it is by far the finest looking television on the market at the moment. The picture quality is brilliant and the sound is sharp, clear and is high quality. The steps of installation are simple to folow and made easy by the smiplicity of the remote control which is also simple and efficient and improves the viewing experience as it gives you the ability to quickly change anything that needs changing. Its great value for money in my opinion and I am looking forward to what samsung are going to do with the next one!...

Review of Samsung LE40B530

A TV Show, about TV shows

Advantages: Good debates, Interesting topics
Disadvantages: Only once a month

...'The TV show', is in a sense Channel 4's answer to 'Points of View'. It's on monthly, on channel4 and addresses viewers opinions regarding what has been on television that month, and any complaints that have derived from viewing. It is presented by Channel4 news presenter, Krishnan Guru-Murthy, and the show is handled in more of chat show debate forum (Trisha style) rather than reading out letters a la Terry Wogan on POV. They often invite producers (or other relevant people) of whichever shows have created controversy that month. For example, this month they had one of the executive producers of Big Brother, plus a psychologist debating whether or not the show has run it's course, whether or not they were taking away the rights of the viewer by removing housemates before they had chance to vote people off, and whether or not it...
