Advantages: Great refresh/response time of 4ms, awesome pic quality on blu ray AND dvd
Disadvantages: can use up a fair amount of electric due to it's size, sound is a bit 'thin' due to small speakers
I have had this tv for around 2 years now so I know this is a little old as tv's are made all the time, however, I can't fault this tv! It has lots of impressive features such as DNR, Film Mode, Power Saver, Light detection so it adjusts your picture settings according to how much light is in your room, 3 HDMI sockets, 2 scart sockets, digital audio output etc...
It's got it's own automatic aspect ratio feature, too, so you don't have to keep adjusting the AR every time you watch something different.
I'm sure you will want to know what the picture quality is like and it's SUPERB watching dvd's. People always say that bigger tv's are rubbish at playing dvd picture quality but it's very good on this tv and even better on blu ray.
When I got this tv, I got a free Sharp BR player thrown in with the deal plus a tv stand, not sure if you will get that now but if you see this tv around, it's worth negotiating!
When connecting blu ray, the tv automatically picks up and converts the signal into 1080p/24hrz so you can watch blu ray the way you are meant to!
It also has a fantastic flicker rate/refresh rate of 4ms to ensure the best picture quality.
Terrestrial tv quality is pretty decent for a tv of this kind and I've got technical experience with tv's so I know tv pic quality isn't always so great. However, it holds up very well but, of course, it's better watching dvd and blu ray...video games also hold up well with vibrant colours!
I got this tv for £1,500 but I'm sure it's a bit lower in price now that some years have passed but if you see it for lower, grab a bargain...it's pretty much future proof!
Summary: Great, future proof tv with lots of great features, nice pic quality, ideal for blu ray and dvd
