Huge cheap Belarusian smart TV Skyworth

  • Dec 24, 2019

My brother bought a 58-inch TV on Android, giving him as much as I paid for 40-inch Samsung.


Looking at this miracle of the Chinese-Belarusian equipment, such as TVs bought my mother and her husband.

TV called Skyworth 58G2A and costs 34200 rubles50-inch Skyworth 50G2A with the same filling stands 25700 rubles.
Chinese brands Skyworth 31 years and despite the fact that we have very few people know, he ranked sixth in the world in the number of sold TVs. A collecting Skyworth TV in Russia and CIS countries well-known Minsk factory of Horizon.


I learned this TV mom and compared the feeling with your Samsung from the senior line.

TV runs on Android TV. Supports voice input and voice commands. The unit has a microphone. By the way, the first time I see the console, which is used in the design of brown.


The TV preset Youtube (exactly the same on the interface, in my Samsung).


Due to the fact that TV on Android, it is possible to install any application, although most of them have to put a stick in the form apk-file, so like Android TV rather peculiar shop Google Play applications in which even no normal internet browser and do a set of applications is extremely small.

Here is the screen after turning on the TV. Connoisseurs will notice three applications that were installed after purchase, and allow for free from the Internet to watch a huge number of TV channels and movies.


The process of downloading Android takes 52 seconds. If you enable instant-on mode, the next turn on the TV take 3 seconds (in fact, the TV does not turn off, and falls asleep).

Digital TV channels switch for 3 seconds, I did not check the analog reception.

There are two TV's menu. The first - the standard Android menu similar to the smartphone's menu. There is no screen settings and channels.


The second menu is called "TV" of the application. Here it is already possible to select inputs, adjust the reception of TV channels and the picture settings.


With the help of a high-speed camera, I measured the screen ripple. When the backlight 100% ripple is absent, while reducing the brightness ripple appears.


Video slowed 40 times.

When the TV shows online content (Youtube and any application), the frequency 180 Hz ripple when viewing DVB-T2 digital channel pulse frequency 150 Hz. Of course, it's not perfect, but much better pulsations at the frequency of 100 Hz at set Other TVs (ammo1.livejournal.com/960634.html). Due to the higher frequency of the PWM ripple is visually not noticeable. Those who still fear the ripple can put the backlight brightness by 90% (the ripple is minimal), or even 100%.

Glossy screen TV, 4K resolution, no dead pixels. If you look carefully in the dark, you can see patches of uneven illumination, but in the real image is not noticeable.


The sound quality is inferior to mine to Samsung - the bass is much smaller, but to view the TV sound quite normal and desirable for a movie theater or even the soundbar.

It seemed to me that the movement on the screen Skyworth looks a little more blurred than in my the Samsung, but in general it shows perfectly.

In general, brother, mother, and her husband is very satisfied with the new TVs. And I do not regret about bought a 40-inch Samsung 40MU6400. Yes, it does not have an Android, and it does not deliver any application, but it is very fast, it has a small and very easy control, good sound, matte screen and the picture is perfect. However, if it was to me now to choose a large TV, I'd have considered the Belarusian Skyworth.

P.S. These TVs are not sold in regular stores. They can only be purchased at Tmall with free delivery all over Russia. When they run out, the price is shown twice, do not pay attention. When there, the price becomes low again. :)

P.P.S. I do not advertise Skyworh, Horizon, Samsung, Tmall and Aliexpress or received for the post of any compensation in any form.
