Great buy

Great for a smallish apartment like mine. Outstanding bang for the buck.

Picture is great. Have used it as HTPC monitor via HDMI and also as a TV with an antenna and have had no problems

The headphone jack on it is an input not an output

Great TV!

For the price, this tv is definitely unbeatable. The sound is perfect for our small TV room which was a concern of mine when purchasing this tv since I had read that the speakers weren't great. I have to say the built-in speakers do the job perfectly....

Great image quality. Great TV. Great price ; I highly recommend this TV

Back connector panel is vertical so it can makes plugging in cables a slight hassle but nothing else besides that

A Great Bargain!

Bought this for my daughter's bedroom to replace both the 27" CRT monster TV and a 19" monitor. She has a DVD player connected to the component video, an iptv set top box to the hdmi port and her eee laptop to the vga input. The vga input was a little...

Display is sharp and color is excellent ; Perfect size for a bedroom set ; A good selection of different inputs ; Got it on sale for half price ; Thin and very light (only 15 lbs when I weighed it!)

Limited speaker volume ; All the connectors are facing downwards making it difficult to plug into

Great little TV

I bought this when it was on sale for 199.99 with 19.99 shipping and I have to say for the cost this was a total STEAL! Unit does come with a 2 year warranty that you must register with the mfg. The warranty starts from your date of purchase, so hold...

This tv for 720p is a good little buy when you can get it on sale. It will do what you want, display your HD channels in a res that you can actually see. 1080p would be stupid at this size, because you would need to be 2 feet in front of the tv. Bought...

The speakers, honestly, are horrible. Even full blast it is hard to hear them from the 8 feet away that the head of the bed is. As the other reviewers have mentioned, you should get a different set of speakers for this unit, it would mean another...

i'm content

it is properly priced and i'm enjoying it so far. very crisp picture for those who have more hobbies that revolve around things other than technology (or those on an annoying budget) and to reference earlier reviews. these tvs ARE compatible with at&t...

crisp resolution. affordable price. sleek design. definitely properly sized if youre intending on placing it on a desk. do not recommend wall mounting it. think itll look inadequate with so much dead space around the t.v. screen. the tv is compatible...

speakers inadequate but can be remedied by just buying new speakers. you need a sub woofer to properly listen to tv/movies/games anyways so you might as well invest in a 50 dollar computer sound system to enhance the experience. picture quality should...

White screen only on powerup

for the money, I think it's good. I use it in the bedroom. you will need a VESA 200 x 100 mount for wall hanging. sometimes newegg bundles this with a 100x100 that won't work.

Good price and pretty decent asthetics. Plenty bright. enough connection options. Tunes in lots of channels from my digital cable service w/o STB

thought it was DOA. would turn on, but only give white screen from backlight. Called their tech support and they suggested shipping it to them and for warranty work. UPS shipping for return to newegg or to Cali' for RMA was about the same at around...

What a Shell Shocker! (update)

I'm very picky when it comes to input lag. Some people may not notice it at all, but after using a CRT for a long time I notice it in some LCDs. This one is no exception, but it could be a lot worse. Thankfully the VGA port has no input lag =). The 8ms...

Great TV for a great price

I wanted to correct my review of this. I mentioned in it "The slow response time is more noticeable when using the component, composite and coaxial inputs." What I meant was actually not the response time, but the input lag. There is noticeable amount...

Love It <3

I'm using this television in my bedroom. I wanted something small but crisp. This fits the bill. The picture is beautiful. The remote is easy to use. I couldn't love this more

Update from previous review

I finally figured out the universal remote and it works fine, using one of the Dell TV models it works with all remotes I have tried.

This is an update from my previous review, and I increased the rating from a 3 to 4 after having it awhile. Picture and sound are pretty good for the money, I haven't seen a better TV for even $50 more than this one

After changing locations and getting a different cable provider, the HDMI is a little flaky sometimes. When I had it connected to my DVR HD receiver it always worked fine. Once I got my new plasma TV for the living room, I moved this one to the bedroom...
