Falcon S5 Tv

[Yorkshirelad175]

Anyone have experience with the Falcon S5 range of tv’s ?
The Avtex Pro range are very expensive in comparison, but which would be the Best Buy ?
Thanks in advance.

I just had a look and the Falcon's are dearer than the Avtex.

Falcon have a package deal :

Falcon S5 27" FHD Camping TV with DVD, Freeview, Freesat, USB, Bluetooth, Easy find + Fire TV. Inc. Bluetooth Soundbar & Headphones. £460.​

Avtex 24 Inch TV Triple Tuner Pro Series 9 (L249DRS-PRO) £426.55​

Sound Bar £141.55

The Avtex prices were from Towsure. The best deal I could find just now.
Not sure of the quality of Falcon ? Avtex have good reputation, but are expensive.

Avtex are the iPhone of the TV world.
Good, but it's still only a tv.
At that price you could buy three normal tv's

Can't remember if it's the S5 but I have a Falcon 22". Sharp picture, sounds not too bad but I have a JBL speaker so would always use that anyway.

Only issue I have is with power often dropping below 11 triggering a warning message or (very rarely) shutting off altogether.

Reckon that's more on the wiring side rather than the TV itself. It would help if they didn't make the low power warning so bloomin big on the screen.

Falcon had the same software and hardware as Alphatronics last time I looked. Great picture but like all of them less good sound. Alphatronics are a premium German brand, not sure why the Falcon brand is used over here? Our Alphatronics is better than our Axtex, picture, GUI, remote control... all of it but the Avtex does fit in the bedroom cupboard.

In 2020 Falcon placed an advertisement in MHFUN magazine with some discount codes.
Any chance of persuading them to repeat this in the next edition Broken Link Removed ?
(Bye the Bye, when is the next edition of the magazine due ?)

Not Falcon but hell of a lot cheaper and if bought from John Lewis a two year warranty
