Hannspree Leather Purse TV Renders Us Confused, Somewhat Angry

Hannspree, a company that's no stranger to putting LCD screens in absurd places, has just pioneered a leather purse LCD TV. You read that right. Leather. Purse. LCD. TV. Purse. TV. LCD. Leather. TV. Purse. LCD. Purse. TV. Italian Leather. 9.6-inches. $259. You don't want one. [Hannspree via Shiny Shiny]

Hannspree Time Square LCD has Weird Things Attached

If anyone does weird LCD TVs, it's Hannspree. And, while I can understand the importance of fire truck- and french fries-shaped TVs, I am not entirely convinced about Time Square, a 12-inch LCD TV with built-in clock, thermometer and hygrometer, whose dials swing open to reveal speakers. More »

HANNSpree HANNSFries TV Doesn't Promote Obesity At All

HANNSpree is known for making some pretty unique LCD TVs. They cover everything from fire trucks to elephants to baseballs and more, but this is a bold new step. The HANNSFries TV look like a pack of fries, and the accompanying remote control looks like a ketchup packet. I am glad HANNSpree finally created a fry TV. My newborn's fast-food-themed room just wasn't complete without this. You have to start those kids out early if you want them to be horribly overweight and not athletic. This 10-inch LCD TV has yet to have a price or release date. More »

Hannspree Does Some Groovy LCDs

We've shown you the child's side of Hannspree with its Disney-inspired LCD models, but here's something a little more sophisticated for the grownups. The Hanns Starlight is a 15-inch LCD TV that, strangely enough, is inspired by the contours of the moon in the starlit sky. I don't know what the Hannspree team was smoking the day they came up with this, but I'd like them to give me a call immediately. It's quite a pretty television, with "curves like orbits" and laser-polished buttons. Runs about $600 and comes with a metal stand designed in an "orbital pattern." Another fave is the Hanns Time Square TV. A 12-inch LCD model, this one is actually designed to look like a men's sports watch. On the front of the TV, it's got a Swiss movement on the right and a thermometer and hydrometer to track temperature and humidity on the left. The stand is wrapped in rubber and it's also got adjustable speakers. And what a bargain at only $450. More »
