Customer Evaluations
The set up is fairly uncomplicated while I found the manual to be lacking in far more detail, specifically regarding a better explanation of some of the capabilities.
The HD picture is just Great and Breathtaking. I did improve the "Sharpness" from 70 to about 90, but otherwise, left it on 'AUTO'. I believed the screen may possibly be a little also massive for my laptop but I was entirely wrong....it is just outstanding! I do not have a HDMI connector for the Computer, only the RGB, but it is nonetheless just outstanding. Hook-up was a matter of just connecting the plugs.
The sound is far better than fantastic, but not superb. (Beneath, you will see how I was in a position to boost it)
I was going to give it 4 stars mainly because the non-HD channels are just wonderful, and acceptable but, the extra I appear at it, I comprehend it is truly pretty very good. So, it warrants 5 stars.
I have seen a number of HDTVs, specifically in showrooms, and this one particular seems to be improved than those. It really has an incredible image with HD and I am incredibly pleased with the purchase.
UPDATE 07/09/2011: Following tinkering with the set for a month or so, I have been able to enhance the sound significantly.....and it was pretty wonderful to begin with. A couple of helpful hints: Press "Menu", then "Audio". I then left the "Auto Sound" on "On". Subsequent, I have the "Clear Voice II" turned "On". MOST IMPORTANTLY, I use the "MUSIC" mode..this produces a substantially even more dynamic sound! I use it with Treble of 67 and Bass of 92.
UPDATE 02/05/2012: Hi...I just saw the 8 comments that had been left regarding my critique and I will comment on a couple of of them. Maintain in thoughts, if you decide on "INTELLIGENT SENSOR" for your Image Mode, you do not have the choices to adjust the picture. With this mode, you get a seriously good picture without having getting to mess with any controls. I have erased what I had previously written on acquiring the finest from the Video controls, and immediately after I respond to the comments, I will share with you what I have now come up with for the Best picture I have gotten so far:
1. Concerning reducing the SHARPNESS to , I tried this, and all I can say is, to each their personal. Personally, I pefer employing the greater numbers and I did adjust the 90 back to 85. And, the commenter was perfect, it does look softer, but again, to each and every their own.
2. On employing or not employing DYNAMIC CONTRAST, I toyed with going from HIGH (which is what I use) to OFF (which was advised) for about 5 minutes.....switching back and forth, back and forth. Again, I have to stick with having it on HIGH....the OFF was far better than LOW or MEDIUM, but compared to HIGH, it seemed softer and a bit darker. But, again, to every single their own and I appreciate the comments and the imput....thank you.
Okay, this is what I have now performed with the Video controls and the image is Wonderful!...smiling, well, to me anyway.

Basically, as I mentioned, the "Intelligent Sensor" is a actually nice image, but for me, this kicks it up a few notches. Appreciate, either way!
I honestly didn't know what to anticipate. I purchased this Television on sale at Finest Decide to purchase for 100 dollars off. I was in the market for a new Television, actually my initially Tv purchase.
Just after a week of use, I am pretty extremely pleased with my obtain.
The image quality is incredible. Every aspect of the picture can be customized- how warm the picture is, brightness, gamma exposure, and so on. Let me say, out of the box the picture was excellent, this selections are much more for if you are pretty particular.
The sound top quality is adequate. Not the absolute very best, but it is a highly solid Television. My dad's bravia's sound excellent is a lot worse so I am thankful that this setup is decent.
As far as capabilities are concerned- it has all of the standards (sleep timer, auto-on/off, and so on). It is missing image-in-image but this seems just about irrelevant for the size of the Tv. I am throughly impressed with the quantity of inputs and outputs on this Tv. three HDMI ports, 2 standard RCA (red, white, yellow) inputs, and the Computer cord. The Pc cord input even has a headphone audio input! This tends to make utilizing my extended cord extremely hassle-free and converter totally free.
As a note, I use the Tv with my PS3 and Pc, and each appear and sound fabulous.
I am pretty pleased with this acquire and would advise it to everyone.
