It's been rumoured for a while that the electronics inside the AWAs and Sanyos that Big W sell are just superceded brand name components.

My Samsung LCDs shit itself only 2 years after i bought it...so if an AWA lasts longer than that id go for it. Dont know if the picture quality would be as good, but id rather worse picture than no picture.

The display model of the 32" AWA LCD I bought was next to a 32" Sony Bravia LCD that retails for twice the price and I stood there for 5 minutes comparing them (while the same DVD was playing on both) and I couldn't see a difference in picture quality between them!

And the AWAs come with 3 year warranty compared with a 1 year warranty for just about every other brand.

If you're happy with the deal you got then that's all that matters.

Good to see that flat screen TVs have finally come down to reasonably sane levels now.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.
