There is one thing that brings the best out of everyone. One thing that always keeps everyone going. One thing which proves to be the decider as to who is hot and who is not. Guess what I am speaking about? Yes, its about competition and competitive spirit. It is always a strong competition that brings out the best in everybody. And just tell me in which field we don’t get to see competition. There is competition everywhere and everyone is urging ahead to excel.
And strong competition prevails in the field of television making too. Well, as of now, if I say TV, I would be or should be talking about a flat screen TV. Because the has become the new-age trend. Well we have seen it all. The LG Flatron, Videocon Bazzon, Onida Black, Sony Wega and much much more. But there is one TV that is lesser known to many. And it is about that TV, we are going to discuss out here.
Well, no more suspense. I am talking about the all new Sansui Flatotron. This is a digital flat TV from the storehouse of Sansui, a famous TV maker. The Flatotron offers one with many features and lucrative functions and it would be right enough if we look into them and judge whether the TV is good enough or not. Let us go through the TV’s features and functions one by one.
The Sansui Flatotron comes with a new-age trendy design with the much-talked about Flat Screen and the sub-woofer cylinder behind. This has become a fashion of sorts and Sansui have also abided by it. Coming to the design of the screen, I should say, “I am impressed”. So will you because true to their claims, the TV comes with a digital true flat screen that has an anti-glare filter screen. This provides us with the opportunity to view without much disturbances and fuss. The body of the TV is also done in the usual way and as far as the design there are not a bad spot to be counted upon.
The picture quality is great. Mainly due to the effect of the flat screen and the anti-glare glass, one is assured of great viewing pleasure. There is a high contrast picture tube which gives us superior quality pictures and well, you should watch the movie “The Matrix” in this TV. I was certainly amazed at the clarity the TV provides us with. The colour contrast is very good and one is given the option of 4 AV-modes namely Normal, Movie, Game and Dimmer which only enhances the viewing pleasure. There is a special program in the TV that adjusts the picture according to the reception quality and hence one can get a very good clarity out of it.
The sound in the TV is again enjoyable. With a 750 Watt PMPO the TV comes with automatic sound control system which adjusts the volume of the channel as per the requirements. The Sub-Woofer at the back gives that added edge for the TV, enabling us to hear even whispers, so to say. Cricket comes alive with this TV. I was watching the Natwest Series Finals in my cousin’s place in this TV and I tell you what, it was memorable. The crowd noise, the commentary and the game, everything came alive, thanks to Sansui Flatotron that was just brought in before the series had started.
Reception and broadcast of the TV is good enough. With a 100-program memory, the TV satisfies someone’s general needs. The auto channel surfer automatically tunes the channels and if one wishes, he can always do some bit of meddling. Tuning the TV is not a problem at all. Then comes the special features. On the picture count, the TV has a selectable picture mode and also has 4 programs in Soft, Gentle, Medium, Powerful which enables us to get enhanced picture quality. The Zoom function is also incorporated and this only provides one with an added advantage. The Surround Sound option and bass, treble & balance control provides with the necessary options on the sound count. The usual sleep-timer and system options are simple and of course they are the same out here too.
At the end of the day, the owner of this TV should be a happy man. This is the only television, which gives a flat screen TV at a lower cost comparitive to other brands. More so, the simplicity in operations and the quality of picture and sound certainly makes this a great buy. So if you ask me, then I would certainly recommend this TV, the Sansui Flatotron and well, are you waiting for something? Go for it.
