Wow What A Deal

 

BUY IT NOW WHILE IT IS STILL HAS A LOW PRICE!!! GET THE EXTENDED WARRANTY

I had my doubts about buying this TV but I am glad I did. I'm not much of a movie watcher, I'm a gamer but I watched a BluRay through my PS3 via HDMI and I tell you real life doesn't look this good. My TV worked great out of the box. I set it up via...

The Sound Is Not Very good. Tinny, sounds like your watching TV in a can ; Personal con(not really but helps explain the extra expense) I needed to spend another $650 on an Onkyo HT-S7100 Home Theater System. My old JVC system doesn't have HDMI

Lifestyle TV Review

 

Recommend buy this item while they last.

I purchased the TV around christmas and it arrived a few days later. Before writing a review I felt I would wait awhile to confirm all is still ok. Well, I want to say that Newegg has done a great job in my opinion. From the time the TV was ordered...

Sound could be better, but is not bad and not a big issue at this time

Great TV - Great Price!

 

I paid $599 at the end of December for this TV. Great investment and amazing price especially with 4 HDMI inputs! The tv is wonderful. When it showed up it was packaged amazingly! There was no way the TV was going to be messed up in the packaging -...

The sound isn't the best, but it is good

So Far So Good

 

Great set for the price

Very nice picture tested - all the inputs all worked fine - I know of 4 people that have the same set and no complaints yet

Speaker are a little cheap sounding I put a small sony home theater and it really helps - had problems with my direct tv remote matching 1 of 10,000 codes

Question

 

N/A

In the description, this product says it dimensions are : 41" x 11" x 29 ; Is this T.V. really only 11" tall? And is it really 29" deep? Or are the dimensions wrong on the specifications? I really want to buy this T.V. but if the screen is only 11"...

BEWARE!!

 

Good deal, High risk. Newegg was helpful and offered a full refund, but the 2 year warranty in the box was misleading and was not honored.

Works as a PC monitor

I purchased this TV after reading a few bad reviews thinking "I wont get a bad one ; The tuners in these TV's have a odd freezing behavior and random shut offs when watching HD ; Mine arrived with broken speakers on top of it

Schweet!

 

Please, someone help me convince my pops that this tv belongs hanging on the wall, not sitting on the dresser!

Big, well-spec'd, cheap and my pops--biggest Luddite the world's ever known--really liked it

Maybe not the most common brand name, but no biggy

Stunning Picture

 

I bought the 1 year extended warranty, since most problems are expected to show up before the warranty expires. The box was double packed and arrived in good condition. The TV is in my living room, but I sometimes connect a laptop with a wireless...

42" full HD for $600.00. The picture is absolutely stunning when viewing HD content. There are zero dead pixels

The buttons on the side work intermittently. The black color is uneven in dimly lit scenes, this is more apparent when connected to the cable box vs. connected to a PC. The speakers are not so good

Great TV

 

When I decided to make the leap and buy a biggish screen tv, the first thing I did was go to best buy to compare various tvs side-by-side. I agonized (as I'm sure many do) about the model I wanted; particularly considering the amount it cost and...

Extremely bright picture, screen swivels on stand, all buttons work, remote is not as bad as other reviews would lead one to believe, cheap. Whoever pointed out that the glossy casing makes the TV look higher end than the price suggests is right....

I connected my old macbook pro to stream movies from a lan server that I had previously ripped and compressed. The movies appear usually dark. For instance, Iron Man in the caves scenes is difficult to watch. That is with the contrast up all the way....
