Not a bad price - lots of tuning options and input plugs

Pretty slow pixel response time - dvds looked like old BBC shows, and live tv always looked like the picture was slightly behind the sound. Not for the picky. No tuner, so you'll need a cable box to watch cable

Cheap TV, and that's about all I can say

The contrast ratio on the TV is rather low at a whopping 1,600:1 comparing to the Samsung 1,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Obviously that is not true and there's not really a good way to measure CR, but still... The motion blurring on the TV is...

I use this as my computer monitor, and have never used it as a TV. Great and bright, as others have mentioned when gaming at night there is a button to adjust the dim on the remote. Menu is a bit tricky but not too hard to figure out ; You can turn off...

Quite Thick for my computer desk for an LCD screen ; 1 stuck pixel obtained at the first month of use, they will not replace it without 7 being out / stuck ; No Tuner ; Slow to change sources (mainly to HDMI) and occassionally it will display with...

Great picture, looks great w/ my chrome furniture. My teen son set it up to my theatre system , looks and sounds great. Can't beat the price. I'm going to buy the bigger one for the living room

None

SEE CONS

Blue lamp comes on but that was it ; Unit is DEAD on Arrival ! Should have known better...Called manufacture customer service (all day event it seemed like) Was told to fax copy of invoice and in 7-10 days I will get a call from them.. Another 2 weeks...

I utilize just about every port this LCD offers and it has performed beautifully! I run a PC through the VGA port, HD DVD through the HDMI, Cable through the tuner, TiVO through the composite, VCR through the S-video, Satellite HDTV through the...

The on-screen menu is bulky and difficult to navigate. Fortunately, you really only have to mess with it once when you are setting up, and even then it is optional for most users. My only other complaint is the remote. It's junk. Cheap material used to...

I use this Monitor as a tv, I hooked it up to my new HD cable box amd its great I love the picture. There's no ghosting and the images are crisp and clean. Love the price. For the Monies paid its worth it

I wouldn't have this as my main tv- I do now and Im hoping to change that ASAP. Why? Two things ; 1.there is an annoying high-pitched noise that is emitted from the Tv when its turned off. Its so annoying that it makes my wife and I crazy and I have to...

The picture quality of the TV is brilliant for the price

The casing of the tv is cheap, the remote is cheap. After having the TV for a couple of months, it started to have problems. The TV would power off itself. I would not be able power on the TV. I'll have to wait a whole day to be able to power it back...

Great picture for the price.

Remote is slow, but i knew that going into it.

i bought this tv at c**p U*a ; when it was on sale for xxx ; doing research on it i found it uses the same screen and the lg series just with out all the bells i use it for my pc monitor and to watch tv and dvds i can find no faults with it, hdtv looks...

only 2 that i can see ; 1 no optical digital but hdmi is supposed to run the sound anyways ; 2 no resolution 1900x1080 ; but then i have yet to buy a dvd at this resolution so it doesnt really bother me ; having said that ; i wasnt willing to pay many...
