Very bad as PC monitor, Ok for TVStrengths: Weight; Resolution; Good look furnture Weakness: Slow, unstable and too bright as a PC monitor Use it as TV and desktop personal computer monitor. Its TV's functions is ok (not so good and not so bad). But it isn't suit for a personal computer: When turn on the computer, the TV spends long time to sync with the computer's video card. Sometimes, it doesn't show anything. At this situation, have to turn the computer off and switch it again. Bad build quality on this. The another problem is it is too bright as a computer monitor, even though adjust it to lowest brightness, it is still very bright. 19% of readers found this review helpful.

Great Value 1080p set
Strengths: Full 1080p HD, Price, 3 HDMI, Sound Quality
Weakness: none
I was in search of a full HD 1080p set to compliment at PS3 and stumbled upon this set. After searching for reviews on the set found that it contains the same panel as the more expensive 40A550 set and only lacks a service port. As expected HD quality is great. While not as great as my Pioneer plasma, SD quality is very respectable. Sound quality is very good out of this set as a result of the small drivers mounted in the rear. There are plenty of inputs with 3 HDMI and component inputs. For the price, this may be one of the best bargain full HD 1080p sets when considering price and quality. Would buy again in a second.
