Its strengths are in value, 60fps, good sound for a small / medium room, and solid visual rendering for casual gaming — no trails, no discernible delay, and no rattling when turning up the built in speaker.
Its weaknesses are with its average color depth, the provided extremely faulty HDMI cable (more below), and I wish it had more HDMI inputs for all my different consoles.
Make sure to not use the provided HDMI if you can help it. I have two of these TVs and the HDMI cables have both failed with the metal male connector being stuck inside and the cable just coming apart.
It didn’t do any permanent damage but it’s not something anyone should have to deal with.
Avoid the cable and you’re good! Would recommend this tv!
Lets us start with connection, one in particular is the coaxial antenna input. Is it suppost to rattle loosely in its case? Out of all of the televisions we've owned, separately and together, none not a single one has had such a generically made input. Its base is a plastic little rectangle that doesn't seem to fit the space it occupies. I wonder if this will become problematic over time and hope its not systematic of other parts not so readily accessed.
In this day and age of interconnectability USB seems to be something one won't be able to do without. And though this model does have such a connection on its rear it is 'far' from fully functional. Yes you may view pictures and listen to music in certain formats but (And this is a BIG BUT...) you CAN NOT watch video no matter what format you record it in. I've connected a variety of electronics to test this. From tablets cellphones , small and large flashdrives and all to no avail. Now I understand one may use the first HDMI connection to utilize the MHL standard but at present we do not have such a cable so unfortunately we must do without USB video.
I have noticed that there is an ongoing complaint that Sceptre doesn't package a manual with their televisions. If you have purchased a tv that does come with one then this comment is not for you. I'm one who actually enjoys a good and instructive manual. And only resently have i been able to download one from their website but its little more than an informational pamplet. I have found out that fumbling around with a SONY tv remote you can find other functions that are woefully missing from the remote supplied. Play around, your other remotes my differ.
Now let us speak on the subject of sound. For most people contemplating buying a new tv a visual image is not the only thing to consider. The mass majority of humanity also have another sense and it is called 'hearing'. Granted one may hook-up a soundbar or PC speakers or even a stereo system to enhance the sound to ones liking but its more than a mild annoyance when manufacturers have decided that attention to sound reprodution is no longer important. Its not just the quality of speakers I speak of but the fact that they are all now 'down firing' speakers. This badly distorts any sound played through the speakers regardless of size or said quality. All the manufacturers would have to do is slightly angle the housing of the speakers toward the viewer to improve this. A tiny bit more plastic and less people would complain. Seems simple really.
I have noticed something when using our computer to play music. We have a Dell with an aftermarket 5.1 audio card by Creative and will often listen to music while were in another room, cooking dinner in the kitchen for example. Now seeing that the 'life' of a flat screen television is limited we'll turn off the monitor/tv while listening because if no one is watching the screen there is no need to waste electricty or monitor life, right? But strangely, and this has happened several times now, we'll come back into the office to find the television has turned itself back on again. I wonder if anybody else has experienced this themselves.
All in all, for the price it is certainly a good buy. This is our first Sceptre purchase and we were abit nervous about it but if continues to perform then we will be very happy indeed. Who knows perhaps Sceptre will put out a useful firmware upgrade to increase its functionality, hint hint, wink wink. 😉
PS the picture I've submitted doesn't do it justice, like with all things you have to see it for yourself.
