Topic: Calling all those who have bought Devant HD TVs

[produo]

here are some examples:

Sharp 39LE440 Full HD LED TV = P19,990
Toshiba 40PU200 Full HD LED TV = P23,500
Samsung 40EH5000 Full HD LED TV = P23,990
LG 42LS3450 Full HD LED TV = P24,990
Samsung 40EH5300 Full HD Smart LED TV = P29,990

Good Morning, im new to pdvd. where can i find those recommended sellers? coz i want to compare the price of samsung 60" LED TV Full HD versus devant's 55" LEDTECH TV Full HD. or to other brands as long as it is 55" to 60" screen size 1080p.. I do not need a smart TV or 3D tv, as long as there are HDMI, RCA, USB, etc. output, as well as i can play PS3

JUST Bought a devant 55" led full hd.. GL10 MODEL...

nakaka dissapoint... iN dark rooms with black background it got white like shadow on the edges...

i think it is coming from the led light at the back of the tv...  it passes through the panel...

NORMAL BA ITO? BAD TRIP NAMAN... HINDI TULOY BLACK NA BLACK ANG BACKGROUND...

That's backlight bleeding sir.
If its severe that is not normal.

[oReOsHaKe]

So far wala naman backlight bleeding yong nabili kong 50" Devant for the livingroom... My wife and the helpers are quite satisfied with it.

[geraldishikawa]

i have a devant 32 inch lcd tv and its still working its 3 yrs na!  im a fun of devant because i saw them from the very start evolve until now, they have amazing picture quality nice technology and elegant design...maganda yung 50 inch nila ngayon 50gl510 kung kaya ng budget mo yun nalang bilihin mo baka kasi maliitan ka pa in future..ka2lad ko im planning to buy it this nov..yung 39 inch nila ata nasa 21k srp im not sure..consider this brand dude! this is nice

[geraldishikawa]

normal yan pre...pero kung ayaw mo ng ganon may replacement naman ata sila ng 1 month,

[AC]

hi geraldishikawa...
devant is generic.. priced a tad cheaper than samsung/lg/sony... minsan same price.. tapos bibigyan ka ng free smaller tv / player /surround..

1) i am not going to pay branded price for a generic tv..
2) if i want a big tv pero budgeted... i would go generic pero generic price..
3) you are a new member and all 5 of your posts promote devant http://www.pinoydvd.com/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=43511 (you can introduce naman your products saying you are from devant.. maybe give the members a discount but pretending to be a member na nagkataon lang to mention devant.. madalas nakakainis lang for members here and mapapansin din naman.. agad)

i have a friends who have very bad experience with devant... there are alot of choices out there.. better specs and better price pa... so i see no reason para magtiis sa devant...

i like buying generic tvs... pansin ko.. generic tvs are really not as good as branded ones.. there are flaws talaga.. minsan small flaws lang naman na we can ignore nadin dahil sa mura naman..

examples:
backlight bleeding
weak wifi
channel display too small for panel
menu lacking
channels magulo ang arrangement

pero i have 2 friends na kasi na sobrang nadismaya sa devant
friend1) bought 2 of your tvs buy 1 big tv and get 1 smaller tv free.. sira ng sira kahit under warranty.. after warranty.. natuluyan nadin
friend2) got a tv from your warehouse sale.. dalawa sila.. nagtext pa sakin nagyaya.. kayalang di ako nakasama.. pag uwi.. pareho may problema.. tapos nung huli parang lumalabas warehouse sale pala.. openbox.. (i dont know kung sinoli ba or display units or maybe repaired?)

[phildg]

Got a 55iTV730 and two 32GL510's last weekend sa warehouse sale, so far so good!!!

[geraldishikawa]

For me devant tv is nice and have better picture quality i have a devant tv 32 inch and its 3 years now still working... i think there is called manufactures defect and its common and happen also all the brands..just to make sure when you purchase a tv there is a good after sales service more longer much better i think devant had a platinum service that u may used of those have a problem..but for me im still happy and satisfied stick devant!

[lejerp]

i got a 42WIZ830 and youtube app is NOT working whether its wifi or LAN.

All I get is the X mark below the youtube logo...

How much mo nabili yung 42WIZ830 mo sir? I don't care about the smart features, at siguro sa 3D na din. Pero atleast andun lang yung feature, magagamit ko lang siguro yung 120hz vivid motion pero depende sa papanoorin hehe. At pwede pasabi na din kung san nabili hehe thanks!

English level : Devant Thread

[zram18]

happy new year! i just need to revive this devant thread out of necessity and for the sake of other devant users.

for me, i didnt buy a devant. its been my rule to buy only branded appliances like led tv because of their reliability. however, maybe out of luck, i won a Devant 40 GL510 LED TV thru a christmas raffle during our christmas party.

my inquiry is the usb supported files.kc ang nakasulat jpeg, mp3 at mkv lang ang usb supported files na usb 2.0 pa, does it mean na hindi nya kaya basahin ang .avi at .mp4 files and paano pag usb 3.0?

to all devant users and to anyone who know, please i need an answer. ty

[Seryo]

A faster way to check this out is actually check the file if magpplay. I'm pretty sure it will. Pero test mo pa din Brad.

[zram18]

na claim ko na ung Devant LED tv ko kanina napanalunan ko sa raffle, ang model pala Devant 40DL520. hehe. im happy and very much satisfied kc kaya naman pala nya i read ang .avi at .mp4 files ko. it comes with a free wall bracket pero hindi ko kinabit sa wall kc im not comfortable sa wall setup baka kc mahulog ang isa pa, mahirap mag kabit sa likod pag nasa wall.

i read about a lot of negative comments sa Devant, i expected poor quality pero ok naman ang performance kanina, saka malinaw. no problem so far maybe because its my first day of use.

it is indicated na 2 years warranty, pero i noticed made in China, not made in Singapore. pero mukhang ok naman so far.

[Kakashi03]

The 39i cost 23k but we turned out buying the 42i for 29k. 

Toshiba 47" i think is 28k lang last december.

[zram18]

second day of my Devant LedTech TV. So far, still good naman and quite surprised with its high quality nice images, maganda naman like my Sony LED TV. Bakit ang mga reviews panget daw quality. no problems so far, sana wag naman masira agad.

[zram18]

napansin ko pala Devant LEDTech TV walang FM radio as compared to my Sony LED. but the quality same lang, maganda at malinaw. Same quality but at less than 3k yata ang price. Devant is cheaper, pero may mas mura pa yung Myview Brand.

[sechiong]

Mag wa one month na ang devant 55cb520 namin at so far sa ngayon no problem, maganda rin ang pq nya.

[Ultraman_HD]

At first I was skeptic about the negative feed backs about Devant. Until I bought one (in a leading appliance store in Makati) and experienced it recently. I bought the 50" UltraHD (50UHV130), 3D and Smart TV. Before buying tested all features in the appliance store - Internet TV, 3D and the USB media player and all was good and Ok. Even bought the wireless keyboard and mouse to complement their flimsy remote control. Got home excited and unpack all the stuff. Again, just to make sure, tested the features and connected to my home wi-fi and cable which was all good and Ok. Decided to test and watch with my media player to check the PQ of the Ultra HD by playing HD movies and it was great...

Now comes the biggest disappointment. ...after more than 5 hours of testing again the features (Internet TV and 3D) setting the correct PQ, and finally watch my favorite HD movie, the display went BLANK! you can now only hear the audio of the HD movie I was watching. At first, I thought somebody might have mistakenly played with the control but after powering on and off many times, there is no more picture in the screen and worst no more audio despite the fact that the DeVant word is lighted (meaning it is powered ON). Also, you can no longer see  the DeVant word when powering up the unit. Sayang...maganda pa naman iyong PQ and features of this model.

I will then go back to the Appliance Store where i bought this unit less than 24 hours after purchased. Sobrang hassle and sayang sa gas, parking and effort (bigat pa naman ilagay sa auto ng unit na ‘to). I will then test if the DeVant Sales people will walk the talk if they can immediately replace my unit should it conked out less than 1 month upon purchase.
 
My thinking is that this is just unfortunate that I got a defective unit (which can happen to any brand as well) and nothing more...

Will keep you all posted what happens next.

[egzbuen]

I heard no insurance company would no longer agree in providing extended warranty for Devant tvs. Can anyone confirm this, including the reason for it?

[dodie]

padami ng padami horror stories ng devant ah......kya ako myview lang at prestiz

Got my replacement unit today. So far, so good and now testing the unit again. Was told that I am the first 1 to ask for a replacement for that particular model. Sales people have been accommodating during the replacement process and was even sorry for what happened. Was satisfied with their post sales support.

[zram18]

Sana wag mangyari sa Devant ko to..yung sa akin ok pa naman. Ang ganda at malinaw. 2 years naman daw warranty nito.

[sechiong]

Last night yung CB520 model ng tv namin di gumana ang 120hz motion nya, nawala ang soap opera effect na dati ay meron, sinubukan namin e- turn off and on at gumana uli, natural lang ba yun na minsan nangyayari na para bang computer na erereboot para maging normal ili?

Those things happen though I couldn't say it's normal, pero that's lesser evil than what the other Devant users experienced.

How was your replacement unit so far? Nagkaproblema pa ba or ok na sya? How much mo nabili ang Devant 50UHV130 mo? A salesman at Western Appliances suggested to me to buy this brand/model. I was planning to buy LG kaya lang mas expensive sya. I need ur info/review before i make my final decision. Thanks.

if you want cheap branded...
go for toshiba 47L2400... srp sa automatic is 23500 using creditcard.. 3 months yata
may discount pa pag cash..

i paid 22k for my sister's black is very black... that was around 2 or 3 weeks ago
there should still be stock

downside is only 1 HDMI and panel is thicker compared to others.. sabi nila... backlit daw kasi..

mas malaki ang commision sa devant compared sa ibang brands.. kaya medyo natural sa mga ahente ipush items nila
