It comes with a built-in NTSC, 181-channel tuner, and requires a separate ATSC tuner to receive HD signals. Simply connect an HDTV tuner or cable box and experience high definition broadcasts with amazing color and detail. It's compatible with 1080i, 720p, and 480p signals, and your DVDs will look incredible when played back from a progressive scan DVD player at 480p.

Fast pixel response time is essential to accurate image reproduction on LCD displays. This LCD TV features an impressive 14ms response speed, helping to ensure excellent detail and smooth motion during high-speed scene transitions. It also offers an extremely wide viewing angle of 170 degrees, so whether you're right in front of the TV or sitting off to the side, you'll still get great image quality. With the motion adaptive 3D Y/C digital comb filter (which separates the color signals to minimize dot crawl and blurred edges), you'll see sharp, focused images regardless of their source. Other features include an 800:1 contrast ratio and a 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Panasonic 23" LCD TV, February 25, 2006

This review is from: Panasonic TC-23LX50 23-Inch HD-Ready Flat-Panel LCD TV (Electronics)

Good value for the price. Picture is quite good with DVD's and very good with HD input. The Sony 23" has somewhat better detail and image quality for significantly more money. The Panasonic also lacks an HDMI input, which may or may not be important to you.

I found a rather modest improvement in image quality in moving from S-Video to Component Video inputs -- which is not too surprising, given this small screen size.
