LG 28MT49S-PZ

Rating: 4.9

Excellent TV, which can partly replace a computer. The fact is that with a sufficiently small size, it is still endowed with support for the Smart TV function. This means that there are customers of most of the largest online cinemas. Also, the user can install additional applications that are in the corresponding online store.

Installed here 28 inch screen can boast only HD-resolution. However, with such a diagonal, it seems to be quite sufficient. And much more important is that the display is made by IPS technology - this indicates the maximum viewing angles. The sound here is derived from two speakers with a power of 5 watts. If this does not seem enough, then no one will prohibit connecting an external speaker system using the optical output.

Of course, with this TV you can watch not only online content. The product has support for all standards of digital TV - from on-air DVB-T2 to satellite DVB-S2. In this case, the device received two TV tuners, which allows you to connect a similar number of antennas. And here there is a USB-port, which is connected to a flash drive or an external hard drive. Of the other connectors, you should select a pair of HDMI jacks that allow you to connect both a laptop and a game console simultaneously.

TV turned out easy and energy efficient. A pleasant bonus is the light sensor, which allows the system to automatically adjust the brightness of the backlight. In short, this is a very good device, the main drawback of which lies in a rather wide frame.

Samsung UE28J4100A

Rating: 4.8

Another 28-inch TV in our ranking, with its usual design. It was also released not yesterday, in connection with which the buyer is waiting for a fairly wide frame.Saved the South Korean manufacturer and on the resolution - the user will watch the HD-image. Unlike LG, Samsung does not have access to IPS panels. As a result, the budget creations of South Koreans get a screen, the viewing angles of which cannot be called maximum. However, they are not minimal, most often buyers do not complain about this factor. And it is much more important for them that the display refresh rate is brought to 100 Hz here. Most of all it pleases when connecting the TV to a powerful computer, when you can run a modern game with the maximum FPS. However, when watching television, a high sweep frequency is also noticeable. However, it should be noted that the buyer will need a receiver for a satellite dish, since the list of supported digital TV standards is limited to DVB-C and DVB-T2.

Like the previous model, this TV offers two HDMI connectors and one USB port. There is also a headphone jack, which is useful if a child is sleeping next to, or, say, a spouse. For the worse, the product is distinguished by the presence of only one TV tuner here. That is, the buyer will not be able to connect two antennas to the device simultaneously at the same time - you will have to make a choice between the “cable” and the “rag”. The device includes two speakers with a total power of 10 watts. This is the standard for such small TVs, so the buyer definitely will not complain. If you want to improve the sound quality, you can use the optical audio output by connecting external speakers.

It remains to add that the TV weighs with its stand only 4 kg. It was possible to achieve such a parameter due to the rejection of advanced components - a large amount of RAM, a powerful processor and other things. The downside of this solution is the lack of a Smart TV. If you want to watch content on the Internet, you will have to connect a laptop or a special console. There is such a TV about 14 thousand rubles.

Thomson T28D21DH-01B

Rating: 4.7

Very good 28 inch TV, which is recommended by the manufacturer for installation in low-cost hotel rooms. However, it also got into our rating due to ideal home use. Yes, the resolution of the screen installed here is only 1366x768 pixels. But the matrix is ​​able to boast maximum viewing angles - the distortions in the color rendition are almost imperceptible. But even more, the product is able to please with its sound. The fact is that two speakers with a total power of 16 W are used here - very good for a TV with a 28-inch screen. If for some reason you want more, the device has a coaxial audio output that serves to connect the speakers or sound bar.

Unlike most TVs reviewed in this rating, the Thomson T28D21DH-01B has three HDMI connectors at once. This allows you to connect a game console, an action camera and a laptop. The latter is useful for viewing online content, as there is no Smart TV support here. However, it would be strange to see her on TV for 9 thousand rubles. Instead, the product received the support of DVB-T and DVB-C digital TV standards - the user will only need the receiver if a satellite dish is connected. Some disturbance from the buyer can cause a USB-port, which is present here in a single copy. But quickly you realize that a greater number of external drives will not be connected to such a TV set. Much more important is the fact that there is a headphone jack, which is really able to come in handy. And the product is endowed with an illumination sensor, which you never expect to see on a budget TV.

BBK 28LEM-1056 / T2C

Rating: 4.7

Another TV with HD-resolution. The Chinese manufacturer specializes in very cheap devices, but this model cannot be called such - for it, at least 10 thousand rubles are asked for in Russian stores. Of course, for such money, it is foolish to wait for a device with Smart TV support. If the Chinese had installed Android here, he would have godlessly slowed down on this kind of hardware. But I would like to get a decent set of connectors. And the manufacturer listened to this desire - he endowed his creation with three HDMI jacks and one USB port. Thus, in the children's room, in addition to the TV, there can be SNES Classic Mini, Sony PlayStation 3, and even the socket for connecting the video camera will remain. By the way, there is also a VGA connector, which is necessary for connecting a computer.

Otherwise, this is a typical 28 inch LCD TV, sold for relatively little money. The sound here is derived from two speakers, the power of each is 8 watts. To connect the speakers, you can use the S / PDIF connector. The use of headphones is also available, the corresponding jack is not forgotten. Only one TV tuner is intended for watching television, plus the product does not have support for the DVB-S2 standard, in which satellite operators broadcast. However, the vast majority of buyers will have enough support for on-air and cable digital TV standards. Still it is impossible not to notice that the installed display has maximum viewing angles. Or close to the maximum - from some angles you can still notice certain distortions in the color rendition.

In short, BBK 28LEM-1056 / T2C is quite possible to buy for installation in the nursery or somewhere in the country. This is a miniature TV, which is 100% working out the money invested in its acquisition.

Akai LES-28A67W

Rating: 4.6

We had to get into our rating and TV, the body of which is painted in a color different from black. Our choice in this case fell on the Akai LES-28A67W. This model has a white color - this applies to both the body and the stand. Sold device for 12 thousand rubles. The amount seems to be small, but for this money the manufacturer has already managed to supply its creation with the support of Smart TV, a function based on the Android operating system. Of course, you shouldn’t hope for a flawless application performance - in some cases, insufficient processor power and not the largest amount of RAM are noticeable. Connection to the router is carried out either via Wi-Fi or via the Ethernet connector.

It is easy to guess that the screen of this TV has a resolution of 1366x768 pixels. Viewing angles are maximum, but the response time is very long - it is equal to 8 ms. This suggests that the device is suitable for watching television, but not for its use in conjunction with some modern gaming console. Although the manufacturer still provided his creation with three HDMI connectors, so you can connect to it a lot of all sorts of additional devices. And on the case you can find two USB-ports, which are necessary primarily for the use of external drives. Also can please coaxial output for speakers and headphone jack. Both connectors may well come in handy.The first is due to the lack of power of the built-in speakers, and the second when the child is sleeping nearby.

Like other budget TVs, this model has only one TV tuner. And here, unfortunately, there is no support for the DVB-S2 satellite standard - if you got a “plate”, then you also need a receiver. But everything is in order with the support of other standards of digital TV.

Thomson T28RTE1020

Rating: 4.5

This 28 inch TV is painted in the usual black color. Some buyers will immediately be frightened by a fairly wide frame. But modern appearance should not be expected from the TV, sold for only 9 thousand rubles. Just as you don’t want to get a screen with a very high resolution - here this parameter is 1366x768 pixels. The matrix, however, is used very high quality. Buyers do not complain about the viewing angles, and the response time, equal to 6.5 ms, can not be called excessive. In short, the TV got a relatively good 28 inch display, which allows you to put the device even in the kitchen.

First of all, this product is intended for watching television. To do this, it is endowed with a TV tuner that supports DVB-T2 and DVB-C standards. But you can connect to the device and additional devices, for which two HDMI-jacks will be used. But, as it seems, much more often the buyers of Thomson T28RTE1020 reproduce content from a USB flash drive, for which the corresponding port is intended. If we continue the theme of connectors, then we cannot but mention the support for the VGA cable, with the help of which the image is transmitted from an old computer. In a word, nobody forbids using this TV as a monitor. It also has very low power consumption, which is also good. Finding fault, perhaps, can only be to the speaker system. It consists of two speakers with a capacity of 5 watts. If you want to enjoy not only the picture, but also the sound, you will have to connect external acoustics to the coaxial connector.

Shivaki STV-28LED20W

Rating: 4.4

Another representative of our rating, painted in white. Perhaps this is the cheapest TV among those that are endowed with two independent TV tuners. In the Russian stores for this device ask 10-11 thousand rubles. As is usual in such devices, the socket of the second TV tuner is intended exclusively for connecting a satellite dish. As a result, the user is able to watch both on-air (or cable) and satellite TV. Very comfortably!

The picture here is displayed with a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, which is quite enough for a 28 inch diagonal. It should be noted that the manufacturer has used a non-standard matrix. Its viewing angles are wide, but not maximal. A distinctive feature of the display is a short response time of 5 ms. This allows you to recommend a TV for watching movies, including with a lot of action. Also on this screen is quite comfortable to play. By the way for HDMI you can connect up to three devices here. The TV also includes one VGA connector and two USB ports. The latter are needed only for connecting external drives.This model does not recognize the periphery, as there is no operating system here.

It remains to add that as a speaker system, two speakers are built into the Shivaki STV-28LED20W, the total power of which reaches quite acceptable 16 watts. In short, such a TV looks like a decent purchase if the device is required for a child’s room or another small room. In the kitchen, the viewing angles may not seem wide enough. And why in the kitchen there is a TV with two TV tuners and a large number of connectors?

Conclusion

This is the ranking of the best 28-inch TVs. Now you just have to decide on the desired functionality of the device, as well as the amount with which you are ready to part. We will hope that you will not be disappointed with the purchase.
