Useful for a majority of my TV needs

As someone who has the entire line of Apple products, the Apple TV works pretty flawlessly. I am able to sync it up with my computer and quickly send videos and photos from my iPhone and iPad to the TV.

I would not recommend this product to anyone who does not already have an Apple computer/tablet/phone or someone who does not utilize iTunes, as there are other alternatives to watching Netflix and Hulu.

The only negatives are the pre-installed TV apps that are not able to be removed (and there's no Apple TV app store either, so I can't get preferred apps instead). I would love to have my Amazon Prime on the device too, but I know why it isn't... Ah well.

Overall it's a good product, but not the best. Also the small remote is super sleek, but praise the heavens if I can find it when I need it... Sometimes art and functionality don't work well together.

I'd probably give this a 3.5 rating if I could...

Great little hdmi switch!  The only issue might be for someone with a 4K TV.  Thia switch does not handle 4k so it renders it at 1080p.  I like it very much.  One thing I like is that I can use my analog headphones with any device that is connected to the switch.  My TV does not have analog outputs so my nice Sennheiser headphones had no place to connect.  This solves that problem nicely.  It's also a decent option if you just don't have enough ports because of damaged ports or just not equipped with enough.

I just bought one of these TVs on sale. I am upgrading from my favorite Sony analog tube TV, which still works like a dream. Plasma might not give the best daytime view, but it is actually better than I expected. The downside is the lack of extra ports, but I don't use them anyway. The colour and sound took some playing with to get right, and still are not quite as good as my old 'box' tv, but are pretty close. The major reason I chose it over LED and LCD is the clarity of the image from every angle which is amazing. I bought it to be my main TV as I wanted one that would not dominate the lounge, and do not watch much television but like to enjoy it when I do, so this was a good compromise.

The TV is sharp and has good color and brightness. The narrow bezels save space. Wish it had analog audio output for comparability with my older peripherals. Also wish it had a video conferencing app like Skype. UHD and HDR appear to only work on input HDMI-1. This lessens the value of the other two HDMI ports.

Pretty good value for money.  A little bit involved with the setup as my Sharp TV model was not listed but managed to work around that with the learning remote.  Works great for controlling the devices I have except for the Android media box - but that is understandable as there is such a wide range of variation in these.  No backlighting makes it a little challenging in the dark, but very nice overall feel to the remote.  Not quite as user friendly as my old Harmony One but the wireless makes it easier to use wherever you are without having to point at the AV area for an extended period when there is a long string of commands needed for an activity.

While the light version of this lacks some of the capabilities of the higher end model, I think it provides a decent value and allows access to a lot of content resources, some free, some chargeable.  But, I you like variety and do not have a "Smart" TV that has built-in wireless capability, this is a good option.

I've looked at a number of these Android TV boxes, and they always take up too much real estate. I like very much how this sits on top of my TV, with all the cables dangling down behind the set, out of the way. My TV is small and with only one HDMI port, so I've got a three-port splitter hooked into the TV proper; this works fine with this PowerLead box, but I do have to manually switch it.

The PowerLead is feature-laden and compact, and the setup was very easy. One thing I'll say: the apps are everything, and there is a learning curve involved with setting up Kodi for your multimedia experience, but there is a wealth of information online to help you set everything up. I'm thinking I may need to set up Kodi on my MacBook Pro first, then drive everything from that. I'm still learning! For example, I'm not quite sure yet how to make the Air Mouse included with the remote work the best, but that's due to my not understanding what I need to do. If I have any complaints, it's that the manual doesn't provide a lot of information; it should be seen as a quick-start guide but then you'll need to do some looking out on the internet to be able to configure everything awesomely.

But I have to say, this is a very nice product to begin to learn how to do all this. It's sleek and well-made and doesn't take up a lot of real estate. Go Google Kodi and read about it some, and then dive in. The price is right on this device, and so far everything I've tried to do has worked flawlessly. I wasn't quite sure how to affix it to my TV, but I fiddled with it and now I have a stable installation. The HDMI cable is very sturdy, and there are plenty of ports to do different things (AV, mini USB, USB, etc.). I'm hoping I can plug in a keyboard/mouse dongle, but "Okay Google" is available for voice input. (I've got a wireless keyboard/mouse setup on its way, so I will update this review when I get it set up to work with this box.)

Even as a pretty non-tech-savvy user, I think this product is very cool. I mean, I've got this crummy little RCA TV, and I'm pulling in the internet on it. The camera will allow me to use Skype, which is built in, once I get it set up. (I'm having a much better experience with my old RCA TV than I was having with my PoS $$$ Vizio smart TV that I couldn't hear or see worth a darn and finally got them to take back.) Now I just need to make the selection process smoother, and Kodi is the key to that. Learning....

The one thing negative I have to say about this, other than it would be good to have a link to more extensive information on its use online, is that the boxes in which some of the pieces were packaged looked a bit dirty, which made it look used. But everything seems to be working just fine, so that's a small issue for me. If you are planning to give this as a gift (assuming the one I received was not an exception to the rule), the packaging may be more important to you than it was for me. And it may be because I was sent this item at a discount in exchange for my honest review that I received product in this condition. YMMV.

For a no name tv, does exactly what all the others do, but at a better price

I don't need more than 2 HDMI ports or a much bigger TV. So this fit my needs perfectly. It is a good TV, good image, good sound. Recommended.

This is a good all around HDTV in the 26" size-range that I had to have for my smallish entertainment cabinet.  The DTV & HDTV picture quality (via Comcast Cable "out of the wall" no set-top box) is very good, particularly for the price.

My only BIG disappointment was the audio output options; the ONLY one available is a Digital Audio coaxial output.  Since I'm using this as my primary TV, connected to a Home Theater system for improved audio, this is a major CON for me.  The only way I can output analog audio is to route everything thru a clunky Cable set-top box (which I didn't otherwise want or need) that DOES have an analog output.  Then I discovered that changing from "out of the wall" cable to the basic cable set-top box automatically converts all previously available digital TV signals back to analog!!  Since I'm not willing to add to my already sky-high monthly cable bill to upgrade to all-HDTV programing & set-top box, I'll be moving this TV to a bedroom (where the TV speakers will be fine) and getting another brand that has all the audio and video inputs AND outputs that I need.

This a perfect example of not doing enough homework before a major purchase (which I really thought I had done).  I verified all the new "hi-tech" connections, but the typical analog (left/right, red/white) audio output seemed so common that I didn't even think to check for it.  I just assumed it would be there.  Hope this helps someone else avoid an inconvenient and expensive oversight.

I just don't need the whiz-bang features of the more fancy TVs, with a dozen inputs and such.  I don't game, I don't stream, I just watch cable and DVDs, simple as that.

So, this television does that perfectly.  Picture is great, sound is better than other LCDs I've owned for watching basic shows and news. For movies and such, I augment the sound with my stereo using the "Audio Out" connection (which is an annoying 3.5mm plug, by the way).  Angled viewing is fine, and the controller receiver (which is somewhere on the set) gets signals just fine from a pretty severe angle (like when you're diving for the mute button to answer the phone).

Anyway, it's a great basic television set!  No issues for me.

I have a cheap HDTV and needed a few extra hdmi ports. I already had a few 3 port switches, but wanted to get all of my game consoles on a single input on my tv. This switcher was affordable and it meets my needs. My only issue is the Nintendo Switch occasionally  overrides other inputs. I'm thinking the switch must be doing some background process that keeps triggering the input switch. If it wasn't for this, I would have given it 5 stars.

Needed to be able to input VCR, DVD, and Nintendo into my television without changing plugs. So far works as advertised with clear picture for all inputs. My set-up has some pretty good quality components and the white hot stamp name on the front is a little garish. I was able to black out the white with a black Sharpie which blended into the background color very well. The effect is an all black front that easily blends in with my Yamaha receiver and Niles speaker switching system.

a must  have for tv or devices with limited ports, easy setup and use.

Worked fine for my TV. I had to get drywall anchors for couple of screws as the 2nd stud wasn't possible with center position. Tilt is a nice feature but you have to adjust it before mounting the TV.

Works as claimed, though I have needed to fiddle with unplugging and replugging inputs to the device a few times--though I admit, I haven't really spent any time diagnosing what occasionally doesn't work right away and why.  Works the way it is supposed to work almost all the time, and a very handy addition to my entertainment center's TV aux HDMI input.

This remote works as advertised, as long as you understand that "One Device" means "TV." In other words, it does *not* mean you can control a DVD player, or any other device, as long as you're only using it to control that one device and no others.  I tried to use it to control my old VCR, which I use to change cable channels (yes, I know, I'm old fashioned), but it wouldn't do that.  Instead, it found the code that allowed it to control my TV, and worked very well to turn the TV on and off, change channels, and change volume.  So if that's what you're looking for, and only that, this should do the job for you.  It has large, clearly-marked buttons that make it easy to use for those with poor eyesight or limited ability to navigate through the many little buttons usually found on remotes that can control several different devices.
