A paragon of cheap, low-quality manufacturing

Great contrast ratio

Very bad viewing angle.; Poor motion performance.; Audio is low quality

Haier LE40C13800

 

While the Haier LE40C13800 can still make a statement in the LED TV crowd, it can't outshine its competitors. The lack of several important TV features and poor display specifications keep this LED TV at the bottom of our comparison.

This LED TV comes with a full year of warranty coverage

The refresh rate is only 60Hz, the contrast ratio is low, the screen is small and it consumes far too much power

While the Haier LE40C1300 merits a look if you want a 40-inch screen, its screen specifications do not compete with high-end LED TVs.

Lots of features, good sound, good size, affordable

Stand isn't very stable

Great tv for the money

Uneven Black / Stand Broke

 

The stand that came with this TV broke after about 5 months of use and the TV fell on the floor. If you get the TV, by a mount and use it, don't depend on the stand that comes with it.
