Very good picture quality, specially on HD programms. Wide viewing angle. DVD player read almost any video format including some divx and xvid movies.

Good picture and sounds for 6 months. Now that the parts warranty is over, I have multiple problems.

1) When starting the TV it takes between 15-30 minutes before the picture appears. No picture, no sound. If I want to watch a show at 8 pm, I make sure I turn the TV on by 7:30.

2) When watching the TV or a DVD, the picture will periodically go either totally black or white but the sound remains on. I can pause the DVD or the DVR and the picture will eventually (between a few seconds or several minutes) return. Once this starts happening it will likely continue happening every 10-15 minutes for an hour or so. Very annoying!

I used to recommend this TV, but no longer.

I bought a refurbished one but apparently it wasn't checked out before they (an amazon dealer: not amazon themselves) sent it to me. It didn't work and in fact, the buttons fell inside the tv! It also didn't have a remote with it - I was so disappointed I just sent it back and didn't even ask for a replacement. I didn't want to have to go thru the return process again.
