Ray, Romford

+ It's full HD for a small set, easy to set up, it just worked and is a great size for the bedroom.

- Like most small sets, the on off button is on top of the set which is difficult to reach when wall mounted. Then again most other small sets are like this.

+ It was easy to get set up and installed

‘HD Ready’ is a Europe-wide standard designed to made HD technology less confusing. HD Ready TVs must have • Minimum vertical resolution of 750 pixels (in widescreen format) • Ability to display 720p and 1080i formats • An HDMI or Digital Video Interface (DVI interface) Full HD is a higher standard. Full HD TVs have screen resolutions of 1080p and can output at least 24 frames per second. Full HD is becoming common, but you won’t see Full HD on normal TV channels for a long time, so it remains optional for many people.

Freeview is free digital terrestrial TV. FreeSat is a free digital satellite TV service, which gives you HD programming from people like the BBC without having to pay for a subscription to a service like Sky.

Number of Scart Interfaces	2
Scart sockets are places where you can connect other devices to your TV. If you already have a DVD player, a VCR and a Playstation you might want to make sure your new TV has enough Scart interfaces so you don’t have to keep crawling round the back of the TV.

This figure is designed to tell you how much difference there is between dark and light colours on the TV. It is quoted as a ratio, between the brightest white and the darkest black. 500:1 means the brightest white is 500 times more bright than the darkest black. Plasma screens have historically boasted better contrast ratios than LCD screens.

This is a ratio of the horizontal to the vertical size of the screen. 16:9 is standard widescreen format for TVs, replacing the older 4:3 format.

5,000:1 High Contrast with Intelligent Scene Controller
Smart Networking with VIERA Link and SD Card Slot (JPEG)

Blacks are deepened by expanding the backlight tuning area. Improvements in panel contrast and the I.S.C. (Intelligent Scene Controller) achieve a high contrast ratio of 5,000:1. *Dynamic mode only

VIERA Link allows interlinked operation of various AV devices using only the VIERA remote control, by simply connecting the devices to each other by an HDMI cable.

The images that are recorded onto movie film at 24 frames per second (fps) are reproduced at two times that speed by 24p Playback. This achieves film-like reproduction than with the 2:3 processing method.

Thin, light and wide. Based on these three key words, this design combines functional beauty with formative art to harmonise with virtually any interior space. The arched trim that flows smoothly from the centre to both ends creates a feeling of visual expansiveness.
