Awesome TV, great price! – D. Siders –
I had been on the market for a new TV for a while '. I wanted an LCD HD, but my budget can not handle so many. When I saw the price of this TV I just bought. For this price you do not do better. The Ambilight is incredible when you look in the dark. It really helps eyes adapt to the changing picture very well. I was really special for a series that had a high contrast ratio, and this set has a decent dynamic contrastrelationship, not the best, but once again … your not going to do better for the money. The other image processing functions are fantastic and ridiculous offer a range of image adjustment. Oh, BTW, is not a small TV … Measures 50 inches wide, but it's worth. It 'very elegant and modern. One last thing, the options seem endless compenents clogging. The SD slot is impressive, no longer looking at the photos on a 3.5 "LCD camera. For the players is an impressive package: 1) Unlike plasma, LCDdoes not burn, 2) the maximum options for connecting game systems, 3) PIP you can watch TV and play on two screens of equal size, if not losing something (eg football ..!). Do yourself a favor and buy this TV!
Phillips Ambilight – K. Hammond –
The TV is amazing! Ask Ambilight in a dark room watching a movie, then shut it down. It feels like the TV all significantly decreased.
Great BIG TV – D. Kattalia – San Francisco Bay area
I bought this through Amazon / TigerDirect. great price, less than half the calls to Best Buy.
The TV is huge. Far more than "42 description would imply. Initially I did not think it would be appropriate.
The image with Ambilight is amazing. Much better than the other two series that I have HD. The TV tuner in this fact much more than the Sony HDTV tuner others, perhaps a hundred channels. There are over 400 channels, including analog cable on my Comcast.
The need to target directly to the TV remote to work. The interface connectors on the bottom of everything would be better with a diagram on the back of them. The side buttons are not labeled very well either.
He accepted all the media I used, including USB keys and others. The manual is a journey and too often. I'm not sure what all it does.
I love it.
Good but not Great – BrianKris – Bradenton, Florida
Firstly, it is really a television cool. It looks great turned off, and very cool with Ambilight Full. Furthermore, the President decent connection, easy and feel good.
That said, the remote is a sort of low grade – does the job, but not much, and the image is just fine. Whatever you do, do not go see the new elite plasmas or not buy this – the cost.
Overall, a pleasure for the purchase price – but not the best HDTV quality – not by a longshot …
