About this deal
In fact, the Alexa integration really does work rather nicely in tandem with the king-sized display – in some ways it’s rather like a giant Echo Show ( read our review here). The biggest issues with the JVC, however, are that it struggles with both motion and upscaling – two key performance elements of any self-respecting 4K TV.
These inputs are treated just like apps or watched programmes, so if you regularly use the HDMI 4 port, for instance, then that gets pole position in your recently watched list. With LCD screens this is done by CCFL (cold-cathode fluorescent lamp) and LED makes use of LED lights.The JVC’s modest backlighting means that it does struggle with HDR content in brighter rooms, and here the Dolby Vision Bright profile lends a helping hand to make sure things don’t end up looking too dim, even if shadow detail does end up looking washed out in the process. I recently moved house and using the TV on the internet only as the room it's in doesn't have any TV aerial points. It has also progressively been getting more and horizontal lines across it and takes at least 10 minutes for the screen to fully turn on as the image comes on gradually in sections of the black screen.
In addition to the usual suspects, you’ll also notice tiles for the TV’s various HDMI inputs and terrestrial TV tuner.Its smaller, cheaper TVs are only HD-ready, increasing to Full HD when the screen size gets to 40 inches or higher. Move even slightly away from head-on, however, and the contrast and colours fade away rapidly; the viewing angles are narrow at best. Europe's busiest forums, with independent news and expert reviews, for TVs, Home Cinema, Hi-Fi, Movies, Gaming, Tech and more. the only thing that I have a problem with is that when I have mine infront of the windows, some how incets were attracted to the light leaking from the back and were able to crawl inside where they died! Since getting my JVC TV, I’ve had issues with the sound cutting out and I’d have to turn off and on the TV to get it back, I put this down to the fact it’s a smart TV and sometimes even our phones act up when they need to be restarted.
