Having spent about 16 thousand rubles, you will acquire equipment with a high-quality image, good sound + you get a few more useful functions. Actually, for them, he takes a high place in the ratings, and a number of features stands out among competitors with a similar price. So that you can understand all the intricacies, I reviewed the characteristics and compared them with other TVs from this price segment.
This model participates in the ranking of the best TVs 43 inches, at rating of the best Full HD TVs and in ranking of the best Smart TV TVs.

The model has a 43 "LCD (109 cm) screen with LED backlight. Resolution - 1920 × 1080 (FULL HD). It can be placed up to 1.5 meters away without sacrificing viewing comfort.
The viewing angle is 178 °, the refresh rate is 50 Hz, the length-to-width ratio is standard - 16 to 9. LED-screen with high contrast, clear color reproduction.
Appearance
Wide screen, but looks compact enough. The thickness of the model together with the stand is 2.2 cm. There is a VESA wall mount 200 × 200 mm: you can not place it on a surface, but hang it at the desired height.
The body is universal black, there are no buttons and switches on the front panel, due to this the manufacturer was able to reduce the width of the frame. Overall, laconic design.
TV Connector Information
There are many connectors, including those that are already considered obsolete, but may be needed in some cases.
The list of available connectors on the side and rear panels includes:
- 3 HDMI connectors;
- AV input;
- SCART video output;
- composite input;
- analog input;
- 1 USB connector;
- 3.5 mm headphone output;
- audio input for computers;
- antenna input;
- Ethernet (RJ-45).
Connection to a Wi-Fi network is possible.
We have a standard set of everything you need to connect auxiliary devices. If we compare the TV with two models of similar price - HARPER 43F660TS and Polarline 43PL51TC-SM, there is only one difference to note: they have two USB ports.
Sound quality
TV set with two built-in 2x8 (16W) stereo speakers. This is a standard figure for this technique. Quite clear, high-quality sound, not rattling when the volume is increased. For comparison: in slightly cheaper counterparts like Polarline 43PL51TC-SM this figure does not exceed 14 W, although there are options with speakers of 10 W each.
Functional
But where the manufacturer cleared up is the number of additional functions for the user. The TV runs on a Linux-based operating system. It is easy to find useful add-ons or applications for it.
What do we have? This is a Smart TV function for multimedia viewing, parental control, automatic tuning of TV channels, teletext. There is a picture-in-picture function to select viewing objects. Another PVR option - when watching, video recording on USB is possible.
Built-in function to stop viewing TimeShift, there is a sleep timer. For greater comfort, a sensor is provided to optimize the brightness of the image depending on the lighting level in the room. It saves energy when the TV is running. Another useful feature is the child lock mode.
These options are enough for a comfortable TV viewing. If you want something more, then for 15 thousand you will not find many additional options. Is that the presence of internal memory for recording movies, programs, as in the model Polarline 43PL51TC-SM, but a flash drive can handle this task.

Output
Having evaluated the features of TF-LED43S43T2S and compared with competitors - with TVs HARPER 43F660TS and Polarline 43PL51TC-SM, I can say that for buyers who expect to get budget equipment with the maximum possible functions, this is a good option.
On an older HARPER model, or on a Polarline with less powerful speakers, you can save a little. Let's close our eyes to the lack of built-in memory, which is not necessary for everyone. TELEFUNKEN TVs are not inferior to competitors in terms of functionality, and even such minor flaws overlap the rest of the possibilities.
