4.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad TV, July 8, 2008

By	MasterXTC "MasterXTC" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

This isn't a bad TV. I paid $380 for it brand new. The TV does take a bit longer than normal to change channels, but the video (head-on) is very crisp. Of course, from side angle, it is not the greatest, but I have it in the basement (game table, workout gym, lounge area) and it is on a swivel arm, so I can swing it around based on activity I am working on.

Contrary to other reviews, I've had no complaints so far. Then again, I've only had it 2 weeks, but its a beautiful TV, great picture using HDMI cable, decent size 26" screen, the audio I've connected to my basement wall-mounted speakers...I'm VERY pleased!

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning! Stretched (distorted) image in analog channels, March 8, 2008

By	L. Rodrigues (Langhorne, PA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

WARNING! If you want to be forced to watch stretched (distorted) image, (with a few exceptions of some HD digital channels), this ViewSonic model is the right TV set for you!
The two tuners on this HDTV receive both digital (w/ or w/o HD), and analog channels. When tuning to the analog and to some of the digital non-HD channels, the originally broadcasted 4x3 images are stretched to fully cover the wide screen size of 16x9 ratio of this HDTV set. This "linear image distortion" causes people to look fat and the overall image very unpleasant to watch.
After going through the manual, I could not find any setting selection to correct this problem. (Some LCD HDTVs have setting options like "STRETCH", ZOOM, SIDE BARS, etc., but not this one).
I called ViewSonic customer service, and, after being on hold for 15 minutes, I was told that "this is normal" and "there are no settings to correct this problem", and then the call was somehow disconnected (did they hang up on me? I don't know!).
NOTE: Not all of the TVs are like this one. I have one LCD HDTV that automatically switches between the 3x4 and the 16x9 ratios, according to the broadcasted image and the settings performed through the TV setup menu. The only time this problem cannot be corrected is when some (abnormal) TV stations intentionally broadcast an originally distorted image in HD, which may occur in 1 or 2 stations within 100.
Be aware of this problem before you fall in a trap and buy LCD HDTVs like this ViewSonic N2635W!

4.0 out of 5 stars Durable but not impressive - owned since originally came out, June 26, 2009

By	javajunki "javajunki" - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

When this model came out a few years ago we purchased it mainly because it was on sale and we had a gift certificate. It was our first LCD Tv and was "okay" however, from the first the picture didn't seem as good as the old big box television it was replacing. However, this is a solid, heavy set (compared to newer models) and has worked flawlessly since day one. No, the picture isn't top quality and the sound won't knock you off your feet but it's an inexpensive, well built model that will perform flawlessly for years to come. Just understand what you are purchasing.
