+ - Nice Design
- Good Image
- Fairly quick response time, compared to othe LCDs in the house!

- - If you really want great sound for movies etc then buy some external speakers, otherwise sound is pretty good for general viewing!

Buzz, Edinburgh

+ Great design and Dolby surround sound quality.

- Changing channels can be slow and sometimes erratic as the signal sent from the remote control does not seem to always be picked up by the television or the TV is slow to respond to the command sent from the remote. No actual off button, so can only put the TV on standby mode. So have to switch TV off at the wall plug/socket when not in use.

Hull, Chris S , “Likes everything easy”

- You can (or I can) only get it to go on standby. There is no switch on the tv to turn it off, so you have to make sure plug is accessible. Other than that absolutely nothing.

- Although it has a wide viewing angle from side-to-side, it is no good for mounting high on a wall as the picture quality is very poor when viewing from below.

+ Looks great, picture quality and contrast are excellent as is the sound. Lots of connections for games consoles etc. Would definitely recommend it.

- The only bad point was that when mounted on the wall, if you are looking up at the screen then the picture is distorted and difficult to see (from close range). Problem easily solved with a tilting wall mount.

+ the picture quality is excellent, very sharp and clear. The sound is good as well and the remote easy to navigate.

- One minor flaw is the 'pre-set' display settings. both 'cinema' and 'game' are incredibly dark and almost too dark to enjoy either cinema or games on those setting.

Dave, Sutton Coldfield , “Middle aged and conservative”

+ A good all round buy (in spite of the negatives listed below). Especially for someone like me who has only ever had an old fashioned traditional TV prior to this. It's a good product to make the transition with.

- Instruction book could have been 3 or 4 pages longer, some of the aspects leave you "guessing" a little.
"Lack of communication" between it and the and the digital TV recorder (it has lost the signal a couple of times). But this may be as much the fault of the digital TV recorder. Assembling the stand is a bit "fiddly",some of the screws don't go in to well.

Brian , Eastleigh , “Film and documentary lover” More like this »

+ Easy to install and excellent design, together with easy to use menus. Picture quality is good, certainly for the price. Built in freeview is excellent with all channels picked up just using a loft areal, no need for a fancy digital one on the roof.

- Sound could be better and for purists is a bit tinny. But for the price paid is perfectly acceptable, particularly as a 2nd TV in the house.

Kevin, Blackpool , “Multi-purpose viewer” More like this »

+ Freeview reception very good with very minimal breakup of picture and easy setup. Good number of sockets for scart and HD connection. Sound clear and volume good as is the look of the tv in general.

- Could do with tilting forward on stand as well as swivel. Picture dark without having 100% backlight on and needs to be viewed about 6 feet back as poor up close.
