+ I like the picture quality and the settings are very customizable so you can get the pocture just as you like it.It has a good remote control.Very good choice of connections.

- The sound quality is very poor.The speakers should be changed, but i knew this when i bought it, i just plugged in an old set of computer speakers and that solved the problem. Again, i knew this was a problem before i bought it and it didn't put me off because i like the picture quality ( there is quite a bit of light leak around the edge of the screen which shows up more on dark scenes) i was prepared to compromise on the sound as i knew i could get around this. It shouldn't really be up to me to solve this, the speakers should be up to the job out of thr box, but they are not, they are very 'tinny'. An HDMI connection would be better for use as a TV, but as a monitor DVI is useful, 'though i use the VGA. So i would make more use of an HDMI for AV gear.Solve the light leek and the sound and this would get 10/10. Still i recommend it for the price, and i would buy another.
