yeah, but it sounds so tempting from the specs.
If there was a sloppy dog turd lying on the ground with these specs attached to it, would you buy it? If your answer is no, why would you buy a Kogan?
Does the turd has 7 day DOA warranty….?
but this one is a 39" ..
oh wow this runs ICS 4.0…thats…im sure its new thing for kogan
I'm hearing "We expect that that during the absolute peak of pre-Christmas sales we will be able to ship out all the TV's we sold over a month earlier. There should be no delay at this time" and thinking it sounds a little BS, but I don't really know.
Personally, I wouldn't trust these TV's as far as I could kick them (not bloody far).
I have an old tablet with similar specs to that tv, and it has an awful time running jb, and its using an official update. I'd imagine that ics would be pretty awful experience with those specs, and then most apps probably have comparability issues. I'd rather just buy one of them ainol tablets and hook it up to your hdmi port, then get this.
Kogan are really only yet another no name brand, consider similar to Palsonic, Soniq, Panafonics, Sorny etc..
No name brands? They are all pretty well known for being cheap budget alternatives to the premium priced brands. I wouldn't consider them to be 'no name' brands as they are quite popular now…
well known for being a no name brand
Of rubbish quality
well known for being a no name brand
oxymoron..
oxymoron
Not necessarily. 'Black and gold' is a generic, budget oriented brand (A.K.A 'no name') and yet I'm sure quite a few people know of that.
Still an oxymoron. An oxymoron is a figure of speech that juxtaposes contrary terms. Which is exactly what "no name brand" is in this situation.
Doesn't mean it isn't an appropriate label, but it is an oxymoron.
I was under the impression that Ace was referring to "well known for being a no name brand" as being the oxymoron, since that's what he quoted (as in, "well known" and "no name" were the supposedly contrary terms). Never mind me, then.
wouldn't say that Kogan is on par even with the likes of Soniq really..
Yeah. Soniq doesn't throw in features that they haven't thoroughly tested, at least. Kogan put bells and whistles on that fall off and get jammed in the cogs on the main machinery.
I think I pushed that analogy a little too far.
I still don't understand how people can buy a TV on-line without checking it out first?
There have been 39/40" LED sets available at many brick and mortar stores recently for the $400 mark. I don't see this as attractive in any way.
My brother in law has a Soniq and I've seen a couple of my friends have them. Never seen one fail as of yet… But they they are probably in warranty

yep I've had 2, 32" LED from around 2010 and 55" LED from 2011 - returned the 55" because it was utter crap …the picture and sound was terrible (even though it claimed to have a samsung panel).
Wouldn't recommend them to anyone really - the 32" I've kept since I wasn't expecting the greatest quality when I got it, but just out of the 1 year warranty things have gotten worse with it - speakers make an annoying popping sound constantly now
