One of the best HDTVs I've ever watched/purchased
By ViBu
Let me start by saying that I'm running this HDTV with a PS3 Slim (for BluRay, gaming and HD video content) and a Sony STR-DG 820 7.1 surround sound setup.Pros:Rich BlacksFantastic color reproduction on many films I tested*wealth of options in the menu system600hz as opposed to 60/120/240 with LCD or LED setsgreat price for the size and quality.Easy setupCons:Some content didn't display quite as brightly as our 42inch Samsung LCD set until the display was adjusted.Composite and Component can't be used at the same time. It's one or the other, not both.I've owned and viewed some really good HDTV sets over the years and this set is among the best. There are three display settings, Standard (which sucks), Movie and Dynamic. I'm running the set using the Dynamic setting, although I also enjoyed the Movie settings too. Dynamic gives better brightness and a bump up in color saturation, but the Movie setting gave very warm color representation if not so bright. I've increased the brightness to about 60 to compensate for the default dull look of the screen on default settings and I increased the sharpness by 10. *These changes in combination with the Dynamic display setting gave much better results. But it's when I changed some of the HDMI output settings on the PS3 in combination with these changes when the quality of the display reached among the best in class that I've ever viewed.Video games also look great on the set as I've tested quite a few. Dragons Dogma, Super Stardust, Killzone3, Dark Souls...all looked and ran great. You should have no problems there.I didn't mention the speakers on this set mainly because I never use the default speakers on any HDTV I purchase. I've always run sound through HDMI using my 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound setup depending on which room the HDTV is going into. High fidelity displays with mediocre sound is not a great way to enjoy HD content. Better to just invest in a decent surround sound setup.Overall, this is a great HDTV set that I highly recommend especially for the price and size. I've seen some really good LED HDTVs at similar sizes and great quality but if you're funds aren't that extensive and you want a large HDTV with a fantastic screen for a great price...Look no further.

By Peter S
Set-up is easy. The picture quality is excellent. For built in speakers the sound is reasonably good. Overall I am extremely pleased with this TV. I do however have one minor issue. It is advertised as having "2 USB inputs, 1 component input, 1 composite input". I needed the component input for a DVD player and the composite input for an old VCR. The composite input uses a subset of the component input jacks. So it has 1 component input OR 1 composite input, not both at the same time.

By R. Empson
I purchased this TV from Best Buy after MUCH agony on which TV - Plasma? LED? LCD? Smart? 3-D? After four trips to Best Buy (and changing my mind about 5 times), I went with this one. Less than $1,000 and 4 out of 5 sales people at BB recommended Plasma over LED for true, rich colors and less motion blur. It seemed way too big when we first got it home, but soon adjusted to the size. Absolutely gorgeous color and sharp picture once we got an HD box and I played with TV settings. It is so easy on the eyes, which my husband and I both LOVE. You can clearly see so much on the screen and some scenes literally take your breath away, they are so stunning. I did purchase a 4 year warranty, so I am ready to kick back and enjoy this TV. There is glare from lighting, so I prefer to pull the drapes when viewing in day time; other than that, no complaints at all. I purchased a 'smart blu-ray player' and decided we didn't need a sound bar, as the sound is clear and more than acceptable. No regrets at all with my first HD large screen TV.Sony BDP-S390 Blu-ray Disc Player with Wi-Fi (Black)
