Televisions - Product Reviews

chitowndave - (July 30, 2004) I bought this third generation DLP after a long hard search for the "perfect" HDTV. Plasma's expense and burn in problems (I watch FOX and CNBC often) just worried me too much, and LCDs looked good but not like this. Almost bought an EDTV 42" Samsung plasma because of the cost and the 2 year standard warranty, but I knew I would eventually wonder about a full blown HDTV and would buy one in a few years to replace it. I consider this set a way to avoid that step. I was also worried about the salesmans desire to take it out of the box before I bought it and confirm that it worked - and he stressed about not tilting the set past 90 degrees - this had me concerned about how fragile it was.

miggidy - (June 01, 2006) I bought this TV a couple of months ago and I love it. I did a whole lot of research, both online and offline. I visited local stores such as BestBuy, Fry's, and Circuit City. This LCD TV outperformed even Sony's overpriced Bravia LCD's. The overall picture is clearer and crisper on the Sammy (Sony looks grainy). The contrast levels are unmatched. The black level is the best I've seen in any LCD and looked a lot better than Sharp's Aquos LCD. Before purchasing this TV, I read all over the internet about how horrible the DNIe feature is in Sammy's line of LCD's. Perhaps there was a problem with the previous model, but Sammy's latest batch of LCD's (LNS series) looks great. I found th

macinnis - (June 20, 2004) I shopped for many months before purchasing this display. The final conclusion was based on the fact that I will most likely want to use this unit in situations where a static image could have burned in a plasma if I had gone that way. The idea of not having to worry about screen burn in was the final factor. Sharp has done an amazing job of putting a highly detailed HDTV picture together with drop dead looks. The price is a value for the quality you get. The input selection on the external box (another great feature) is impressive. The HDMI and DVI interface allows future proofing as need be. The sound is better than any tv I have heard. I am thinking of having the unit's speakers be

davidbeachguy - (12/01/2009) Problem might just be with my TV or eyes. I would shop around more if had to do it over. I might would still buy this TV, but I would shop the other brands to see their picture quality.

ten999 - (11/29/2009) Picture went out after three years. No storms, electrical problems in house, etc. Clear night and "pop" the picture is out for good. Sound still works though! Hitachi is no help. Did not want to speak to me or recommend anyone.

jnelson1975 - (11/28/2009) Purchased from best buy 11 months ago. I only hesitated buying because I thought the bulb would blow out in a few months. My TV runs at least 5 hours a day Mon-Fri and about 15 hours a day on Sat & Sun, thats a long time. If you want a big TV and one that is equal to Plasma or whatever, this is the one. For my sound, Bose.
