    The Cello is Saorview approved, if that matters. This particular Blaupunkt isn't, though they have some approved models. Blaupunkt wouldn't be known for TVs anyway, even if it does seem like the better brand.

    They don't seem to change it, so I'm assuming they think it works. Hack, it probably gets people to their warehouse it's so bad :P

    As for the TV's, the CELLO 39" is only 50HZ, whilst the Blaupunkt 39" is 100HZ. If you get headaches whilst watching the CELLO TV, it's because of the low refresh rate. 75HZ and above is usually recommended.

    There'll be nothing much between them. Both are very basic sets and probably made by the same Turkish manufacturer. Both are 50Hz panels so neither will be better for motion (the 100Hz figure is not a true figure)
