Worst product on the market.
TV has been broken more than it has worked. Have found the after sales service to be pitiful and would NEVER buy a Kogan product, nor recommend, again. Service staff made me feel, and treated me, like I was a complete moron and that they had done me a favour by allowing me to purchase their inferior product. Luckily I stopped my son in time before he bought one too.

Smart TV that isn't smart
The TV won't work with basic apps such as iview or Netflix and you can't load iview or Netflix in the browser either, or rather it loads but won't work. Rang Kogan can't or won't help offered to send me an email giving me options. I am using a chrome cast as have no other option but what is the point of having a smart TV. Asked about a software upgrade but they said no cant do it probably won't release one at all. Very poor service extremely disappointed Kogan

flickering screen
Received the TV quickly & loved everything about it for the first 10 months (it was a good product for the price), then the screen started flashing in the bottom right hand corner before completely dying just after the warranty expired. Very disappointed & will not buy a Kogan TV again.

Dissapointed
I've had nothing but trouble with this TV in the 12 months I have owned it I've returned it back 4 times, finally Kogan decided to send me another one only to have different issues. The picture pixels are all scrambled and make a high pitch squealing noise. I've now demanded for a full refund as the warranty will expire next month.

Not a bad little TV
Good screen quality, 3D worked well. Found that the Smart Android software was very sluggish and slow. Also my particar TV stopped working, Kogan however gave me a full store credit for my TV and all the accessories I purchased for it. Can't reccomend them enough for customer service!

Good for the price
Good product that works well at a very reasonable price. Just needs a better stand. But all and all pretty good

Great Outdoor TV
I bought this TV for my patio. Has a great picture and, combined with the wall mounting, is great for entertaining. We make afternoons watching the footie, motor racing, cricket etc. sound is perfect for the space and, as it was such great price, I don't worry about the risk of theft or damage (remote as it is).

Great Picture
Bought matching sound bar and 3D player to go with TV. All great value though it is very necessary to print out the instructions and read the book for all!! Picture clarity and color is amazing in HD. No problems since installation,all running well. The TV can get a bit confusing at times but once again "Read the Book"!

Nothing smart about it
Won't navigate iView sufficiently to allow the app to play it, won't connect to 10 play, won't play SBS online, kind of leaves me wondering what Kogan thinks I was going to do with a smart TV? Twitter and face book perhaps that cannot be removed from the non-editable hame screen. I thought that smart TVs were old news and getting one these days was a simple matter of plug and play. Yes it is a TV and I guess it is a cheap one, as for smart, it is a complete waste of my time. First and last purchase from Kogan. Would not, could not recommend them, description could in no way reflects product

I purchased Kogan Angora 42" smart tv as it was affordable, but to my disappointment it is not compatible with iview or catch up tv. Had I known I would have taken up offer of good second hand tv from family at this point in time. Other than that it is a nice tv and works well.

Nothing To Complain About
I've had mine for about 6 months. Love it!
Picture quality is great....3D is awesome.....and Smart qualities are more than adequate for my needs.
I'm never forgetting what a TV is for....to watch TV....and this model has not let me down in that regard.
For those that complain about Internet streaming....just buy a PC. It's like people that take photos with their phone......if you want decent photos...buy a camera!
This is great value for money....and my best purchase ever!!

Picture Blanks Out
I just got this the day after new years day. I found right away that half the channels go to black after 60 seconds. I am an electronics tech and know what I am doing, the tv is faulty. I timed each faulty channel, on the dot of 60 seconds, black!!! I have now read the above reviews and find that this fault has been around for quite a few months and there seems to be no fix. I have emailed support and waiting a response. I will NOT be paying ANY charges for returning this under warranty, the tv was sent with a known fault.

There are millions of applications available in the market, and all of our TV's will support tens, if not hundreds of thousands of these.
