GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY

 

I READ THAT THE 3D PICTURE ON PASSIVE IS NOT FULL HD AND ISN'T AS NICE LOOKING BUT I THINK IT LOOKS GREAT. I DON'T SEE A DROP OFF IN PICTURE QUALITY AND THE 2D QUALITY IS GREAT. I FIRST TRIED ACTIVE 3D AND HAD INSTANT HEADACHES, BUT ... Expand full review

CHEAP GLASSES ; GREAT PICTURE ; NO HEADACHES FROM PASSIVE 3D

NOTHING SO FAR

GREAT BUNDLE FOR THE PRICE

 

This box set is good for a smaller room with alot of light that might cause glare. Nice Budget set with great quality and 3D experience for the family.

Theatre quality 3D ; lightweight glasses ; great image quality ; ease of use ; good 2d-3d conversion ; matte finish screen keeps glare minimal

No Apps ; too many remotes ; For a HDTV 3D box set that requires HDMI, but doesn't include one

Budget all in one box 3D experince

 

decent price for an all in one package for 3D experince, maybe not the best when it comes to features, but for price, convience, light weight 3D glasses that dont use batteries & size not a bad package.

3D for party of four,easy set-up,light wght glasses easy for kids,definetly get the set calibrated makes world of difference especially if your not a techie,the sync linked remotes are ok,but will get logitech remote to declutter coffee table. HD picture

no internet app unless you buy the add on link,not wireless but i'ld rather be hard wired for updates anyways,3D movies are limited & pricey

Not worth the money, go with the lw5600 version instead

 

Overall the value just isn't there. Yes it comes with a Blu-ray player but neither the blu-ray player nor the TV itself have internet apps or Smart TV technology. Buy the LW5600 instead, it is only $100.00 more and you get better picture and internet...

Great Image Quality ; 3D technology is very user-friendly ; Light-weight ; Good contrast ratio

NO NET CAPABILITIEs ; This means no Netflix, Vudu, etc ; Neither the TV nor the Blu-ray player it comes with include internet apps ; Speakers aren't too good

Awesome TV!

 

If you play video game systems on this you will need to set the input to 'PC' otherwise you will experience a noticeable video lag. 3d blu-ray player is pretty basic, but functional.

This TV is great! it really exceeded my expectations. The picture quality is amazing compared to my old 42" LCD television. It is super thin. The 3D is way better than I thought it would be. Came with 4 pairs of glasses. I bought 2 more pair, they are...

You can't label the inputs manually, you have to use a pre-selected list. Most of the ports on the back are rear facing. Doesn't do a lot of good to have a super slim TV with all the cables sticking out of the back. Only 3 HDMI ports

Great 3d and 2d to 3d

 

The 3d is great. Wow's from 1st time viewers. The 2d to 3d makes normal shows sort of half 3d...enough to make some shows exciting. The picture setup works so well that every movie looks like it is shot live. Kind of eerie. The blue ray player is small...

Lots of bang for the buck!

 

Are we the last family in America to get a sweet flatscreen? After several years of deliberating, and enduring our 32" tube (which seemed HUGE when we purchased it 10 or so years ago), we decided to take the plunge this year, in the form of a ...

Plenty of bang-for-the-buck. Out-of-the-box 3D bigscreen "wow factor

No Internet connectivity. No audio lines out of the TV

Price Match

 

Only TV that works well in a sunny room with minimal glare! Blue-ray bundle is great as well as the four pairs of 3-D glasses!!! Best of all I asked abt to price match an internet competitor and they did, allowing me to buy from my favorite!!!

LED-backlit, Reduced Glare, Great Picture Quality

Wow!

 

If your in the market for a new television and you want to feel like you are getting away with a great deal, consider this purchase. Well worth a look!

Delivered in perfect condition! Very easy to set up and very easy to use! This pleased me greatly because I was leary of purchasing a television which can be tweaked. But its so easy. It took me only moments to familiarize myself with the process. The...

Haven't found any yet. Waiting on the HDMI cables but even without them, everything looks and works great and NewEgg has those for 3 bucks. I will update this post if I see anything displeasing but so far, no complaints
