Score 10.0/10

Good points:: I have been using the TV for last month and half and I am still amazed by the picture quality. Even SD picture looks good, but when you watch HD it is simply awesome. 3D quality is surprisingly good, even though there is not much content out there. Sound is ok, but I have a home theatre system which goes well with this TV.

While watching blurays on my PS3 the colours/blacks are stunning. I think I will have to start buying more blurays over next few months.
Bad points:: The screen is reflective an this is something to keep in mind if you are planning to buy this TV. Also there is some haloing if you watch from angles greater than 30 degrees.

This is my second set as the first set stopped working within a week (no picture), which was replace without any questions by the retailer.

‘HD Ready’ is a Europe-wide standard designed to made HD technology less confusing.

Freeview is free digital terrestrial TV.

Number of scart ports	1
