Viore is made by many different manufactores in China.
Who makes them
Akai.
Yes, they are the same company. I purchased a defective Viore TV and they replaced it with an iSymphony as they were out of the size I had purchased in the Viore.
iSymphony is made by Viore. I just emailed Viore and they verified this.
Yes it is a good brand. My own HDTV is a Viore and it's very good in the hd picture
Viore is the name of the tv brand, however if you bought a tshirt that looks like it says joie de Viore...it actual says joie de vivre in cursive which means joy of life or joy of living in French.
Viore is a company that produces many different types of Television types. The three television types are LCD televisions, LED televisions, and Commercial Grade televisions. These types of televisions will have 720P, 1080i, and 1080p.
According to their Tech Support who I called yesterday regarding remote codes, Akai made the TV's until about 2 years ago. Now they say that Viore manufactures much of the TV with some of the major components manufactured by Samsung. It was made by a company called Akai. Their web site is below.
from looking at the controller it looks like viore,from calf.
The cheapest tvs are going to be LCD/LED tvs with no extras on them. HD tvs and plasma tvs are going to be more expensive. Some of the cheaper brands would be Viore, Sigmac, and Westinghouse, although you can probably find a reasonably priced LCD tv in the more popular brands also.
Unsure of the parent company, which is in China. Akai made the TVs until about two years ago and now they make their own components, with the primary ones being made by Samsung according to their tech support. They also recommended using Samsung's remote codes which worked great for me....finally!
From my experience, Samsung and LG have the best displays overall when it comes to pixel quality and brightness/gamma/color correction properties. Though not all models come with DVD players, so you much check the specifications. Brand "Viore" makes a wonderful display that combines both and is reasonably priced. They can be found through online distributors of electronics, depending on the brand selected.
Sabre is the name of the company that makes Sabre televisions. The company makes these televisions exclusively for the military.
