Polaroid 19 inch LCD TV Review

Polaroid 19 inch LCD TV Review - Hey lets talk TVs shall we? How about TVs/monitors shall we? 'Cause this actually does both. When you hook it up to your computer you can use it as 1440 by 900 monitor, and when you hook it up to your cable or an antenna signal you can watch television on it in 480i, 480p, 720p or 1080i on this 19 inch screen. It's got a built in electronic program guide, it's got a remote control that's going to allow you to quickly switch between PC inputs and antenna inputs. It also has an integrated HDMI port, and tons of conductivity. So if you're in a. If you're in a room, where you'd like to have a TV and a computer, maybe don't have a TV tuner in the PC, and you want to have a whole bunch of different kinds of inputs, on your screen, this is perfect. 

It's the Polaroid 19 inch, widescreen. It is 16.9 aspect ratio, it has a 700 to 1 contrast ratio, and also like I said has a 1440 by 900 max resolution at 8 millisecond response time, so it's got to have fast response time on it, very nice resolution as a monitor, and will handle any of the digital TV formats you can throw at it, short of 1080p. So Which you're not really going to want on such a small screen anyway. I would love to show you, the actual TV signal, on this thing, and how good it looks. Because it does make digital television look extremely good, the problem is, we're in the battles of the TV studios here, and not even with a high gain HD antenna can we pull down any useable signals, but you'll be able to. In your house, you just hook it up to, like I said your cable, or any antenna and you'll be able to get full high def, digital television, on the screen. And of course, sometime in the near future they are going to be turning off all analogue broadcasts, and this will be able to natively tune into the digital, over the air broadcast. So, let me go ahead and show you around it just a little bit. 

This is a remote control that comes with it, gives you quick access to the built in electronic program guide, to your Favourites, to your inputs, so you can quickly switch to antenna or down here switch between the PC and the HDMI inputs, if you simply push the Input button on the remote right here, you'll see that we have our TV/AV S-video component HDMI and PC inputs on this thing, so it's got a whole lot of different plugs on the back. I'll go ahead and show you those right now, shall we? So let me go ahead and shut this monitor down here, and show you what is going on, on the rear. 'Cause there are a lot of inputs on this thing. Take a look here. Can we Are we able to see this producer deck, can we see it up in here? There we go. You can see over there on the left hand side you've got your power port, just to the right of that you've got your stereo audio inputs as well as a component input right there, you got an input for your cable TV, or your antenna. 

You've got S-video, you've got your stereo inputs and your analogue standard RCA input right there, as well as a VGA input and an audio input for everything coming from your PC, and an HDMI port onboard this particular monitor. So, you can literally plug in just about anything you'd imagine, into this thing. Short of say digital audio, which it's not going to do.
