Toshiba Regza 42WL58P

Sharp, smooth picture. Dual HDMI and multiple other inputs ensure good connectivity. Seems to have overcome the smearing effect common to LCD TVs. Side-mounted ports allow easy access when wall mounted. Resolution of 1366x768. Reflection-free screen...

Size, design, matte screen finish, excellent for video games, great sound and picture quality, 5 years warranty

Cheap feeling remote, ambigious remote buttons

Realible, very cheap and energy eficient Great product
