1. This projector is superb in brightness and flexibility given the extra range in zoom. We use it in ECO mode and find it plenty bright even with the windows unshaded in midday. It is great for iphoto, presentations, & quicktime given the higher res than many sub $1000 projectors. Good color and looks great even projected on a white wall. It has a mini D-sub (RGB) cable and a video connector, so nothing fancy. The only thing is it is somewhat noisy, but when there is action and the volume is pleasurably loud it isn't noticeable much. The remote is intuitive, as is the menu/options. It is a sleek, thin machine. I would give it 4.5/5 stars.



2. Size: Same as the small Sony Vaio 11.1" screen computers but a bit thicker. Projector fits into my attache case carry-on bag next to my small Sony Vaio computer.
   
   Keystone is automatic. The projector senses the lift angle and compensates. The projection is perfectly rectangular. My previous projector often showed a trapezoid picture.
   
   The cable is VGA/VGA not VGA/DVI so if a a wire breaks in the cable (resulting is a yellow, blue, etc. picture), you can easily find a replacement.
   
   Flip-up lens cover. When you are switching shows, you can hide your work and cover the projection with the lens cover. Nice.
   
   TSA. Due to the shape, airport Security will assume the projector is a computer and require it be separately screened. So, you will have to remove it from your carry-on bag for screening with your computer.
   
   The projector has more lumens than comparable units and runs hot; the lamp is rated at just 2,000 hours.
   
   I am an author on speaking tours. I fly more than 6,000 miles/week. I appreciate a projector that is reliable, low volume, low weight and sets up quickly.
   
   Sexy. This projector will turn heads.

   The product itself its pretty good, I was looking to buy the cheapest projector on the block and I got quite a surprise, a good one, its pretty quite, good options menu and image, what else would I want?
   Thanks Amazon, Thanks Tiger Direct, Thanks BenQ :)

1. Let this set be a warning to any gamer out there: You WILL experience response lag in games with this set. I knew something was off the moment I started playing Xbox 360 games via a HDMI hookup. I quickly set up the old HDTV this one was supposed to replace and sure enough, there is a difference between them.
   
   Don't get me wrong though, if you're a movie buff, the image will astound you. The colors are really good, although I did find the orange to be slightly dull. Good set, just not good for gaming. Therefore, I ended up returning it.



2. Received this product a little over a week ago, very happy with picture, sound and operation. Seller shipped promptly. I would do business with them again. I did have to be home to accept delivery, which might have been an inconvenience for some people.



3. So I've had this unit for a few months now and I think I have a pretty good grasp of its capabilities and quality.
   First- Set-up was a breeze, the manual, though sparse was pretty detailed in the picture. It was easy to follow the directions from the diagrams or just figure it out on your own.
   Secong- Picture quality is amazing, black is truly black on this unit. the contrast and and the sharpness is great. I attached an HDDVD unit to it and it looks great.
   Third- After a few days of using the built-in speakers at mid volume levels the sound quality starts dropping off. I opted to using my home external sound systems to save the speakers, besides it sounds better that way.



4. I ordered this TV based solely on the reviews posted here and other websites. What a great TV!! The picture is crystal clear, even when I just plugged the cable into the wall while waiting for my DirecTV to be installed for HD.
   
   The HD channels are even better than on my 37" plasma in the basement. I put this TV in my living room, which gets a lot of sunlight in the late afternoon. Absolutely minimal sun glare off the screen and the picture wasn't degraged at all!



5. I love this set. I found it at a local pawn shop, perfect condition, and obviously got an excellent deal. I've used a couple of other HD sets, and this one's by far my favorite.
   
   First and foremost: Gaming. I see another review on here was bashing the gaming on this set, but the PS3 run through HDMI at 720p looks beautiful. I've played CoD4, Battlfield: Bad Company, MGS4, Motorstorm, GTA4, and Warhawk on this set, all intense action oriented games. No blurring, no artifacts, looks realll good. The only thing that looks slightly bad is the edges on everything are a little pixellated, but it did this on the other sets as well (an $800 Sharp and $900 Sony of the same size). I'm not really sure what set he hooked it up to that looked better, but I'd like to know.
   
   Second, SD cable. Like a lot of people, I haven't made the switch to HD programming yet. But SD channels look as good as you can expect. The Zoom1 ratio is really nice, doesn't look stretched at all, but it cuts things off sometimes (it's really only noticeable when there are words on screen - credits, titles, logos, etc.) Stuff I really don't care about seeing anyway. I'm not a fan of having big black bars on the side of my screen, so I really like this ratio. Image quality seems to vary a lot between channels, but it never looks bad.
   
   Third, as a monitor. I was, in fact, so impressed when I hooked my laptop up through VGA that I've decided to build an HTPC to use with the LG as a monitor. Granted, I'm going to use a video card with DVI/HDMI output with a DVI to HDMI cable so I can pass HDMI sound to my receiver, but anyway. It looked good. I'm probably going to buy a long VGA Cable so I can hook up the laptop to the monitor and use it in a Dual Monitor set-up, as well. The max resolution supported on the tv is 1366 x 768, which is perfect for me, but I bet PC gamers will be wanting a much higher resolution... It's definitely not for playing Crysis at max settings. Still, it's not gonna look bad, either.
   
   There are an absolute load of inputs, 3 HDMI, 2 Component, VGA, etc. I don't think you'll ever find yourself not being able to connect something you want to. There's also a Digital Out for audio.
   
   The Remote can't program my Sony Receiver... irritating. I'm trying to find a universal remote that will let me switch inputs on the LG and control the volume of my receiver. There are 8 or 10 codes for Sony Audio, but none of them work. My receiver is a STR-K790, by the way.
   
   (I can't comment on the speaker quality of the TV, since I haven't used it at all.)
   
   
   All in all, it's a definitely a great set, and arguably the best budget HDTV around. The only issue at all I have with it is black-levels, but really it's minor. (see the 24 and 165 in the top left corner here? http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Color/Chart/ColorsChart2.jpg
   The 165 is the black level on my set, with the gloss frame as the 24. You CAN get it darker, by adjusting the backlight level and such... I'm not much of a videophile so I'm not worried about it. For a casual user, you're only gonna notice it in pitch black scenes where people have the lights off, and the little black bars on the side. I just suggest using Zoom1.)

5 comments about Toshiba REGZA 32LV67U 32-Inch LCD HDTV with DVD Player.

1. I have had this TV/DVD combo for a little over a month, and so far it is doing all that I expected. At 32" screen size the lack of 1080 resolution is not an issue. That size is quite adequate for a medium sized room, by the way. As others have mentioned, the remote doesn't offer many options for DVD control but that is balanced in my mind by the convenience of the built-in player at a reasonable price. I have not noticed the difficulty with noise from the DVD player mentioned by some other reviewers. The TV has multiple HDMI inputs and works fine with my HD cable hookup, also.



2. Well, the product is good unless the cheapo internal dvd player breaks.... and then it is worthless. Meanwhile in repairland, the dvd part is on back order but Toshiba could care less because they already have my money.



3. TV was nice for a year and a half. The video board burned out which in turn blew out the lcd screen. Was only used about 4 hrs a week. Repair shop said it would cost as much as a new TV to fix. The tech also said it's poor design by Toshiba making the video board and screen as one part. Be careful, it's cheaper than the higher quality for a reason. My Sony has been around for 7 years, no problems.
   
   I had extended warranty and they refunded me the entire cost of the TV instead of bothering with fixing it. That was surprising, so it must be a known common problem with Toshiba.



4. I have had this TV for six months now and I have not had any problems. Setting the TV up to work with my HD cable box was a breeze. It would be hard to beat the video quality and sound at this price.



5. I'm fully satisfied with the TV (picture quality, menu features, etc), but the built in DVD player has broken twice within the year. Luckily the 1-yr manufacturer's warranty is pretty good and they come to your home to fix it - but it's a major hassle. The repair guy said that this happens relatively often to the Toshiba TVs and they plan to stop producing the sets with built-in players. You're better off buying a TV-only set and get a nice swanky high-def DVD player to plug in!

5 comments about Magnavox 19MD357B 19-Inch LCD HDTV with Built In DVD Player.

1. I too had problems with this TV. It would never play any of my DVD's even new ones. After about 3 months, the picture just suddenly died. I can still get sound but no picture. I would never buy another Magnavox.



2. Purchase the newest model "/37" and you'll find vast improvements over previous model. Best quality/components by far for price range for this combo style. Shop around for pricing as this model is being agressively marketed by some "big" retailers this Christmas season.



3. I purchased this Magnavox TV/DVD 6 months ago and am pleased with the picture and sound quality. I'm using a roof top antenna and pickup several HD channels and many more digital channels. It's great...except the screen size. It's not 16:9 as HD TV is broadcast, but 16:10. The picture is stretched to 10" high instead of the 9" it should be, so everyone is tall and thin. Magnavox should offer a software upgrade to correct this problem or offer replacement TVs. I would not have bought this TV if I was aware of this design problem.



4. This LCD TV looks like a good deal price wise, but the model I bought (not from Amazon, but the same model) had a lot of defects, and after ~100 days, past the brief 90-day warranty it had broke. TV started to turn on and off randomly for no apparent reason while getting interrupted by the (basic) built-in DVD player. It could not hold a signal to the TV. It may cut off TV signal to black or the audio would mute, pop, or it could also reset randomly. And it blasted a high-frequency tone each time at maximum when it cut off the picture, and then continues the loop over and over (the volume blasting will make you jump in your seat). The TV's ATSC/Qam tuner must of broke, and after a week of tolerating its problems, of turning on and off and blasting, it was thrown out.



5. These and almost every brand of 19" HDTV use the same LCD panels made for computer monitors. Wide screen Computers monitors are 16:10 and the number of computer monitors far far exceed the number of Televisions by the hundreds of millions. If a TV makers tried to get a company to make a 16:9 panel the cost would make the TV too expensive and you would not buy it...
   
   So you will just have to live with it, no matter which brand you buy.

5 comments about Sharp Aquos LC46D82U 46-Inch 1080p LCD HDTV.

1. I purchased this set after my 5 year old 42" Sony Wega Plasma unexpectedly bit the dust. That set cost me $8,000 back in early 2003. Needless to say, I was not very happy. However, my remorse quickly turned to excitement as I began to research new TV's (it's a guy thing).
   
   The first thing that I had to do was to get caught up on the LCD vs. Plasma technology battle as much has changed these last few years. I read about everything from pixel speed to energy consumption to lighting conditions, etc. etc. No doubt you are doing similar research and reading the same things. While there are many important considerations, what mattered most to me in my decision was picture quality.
   
   To tell you the truth, I've never been a big fan of LCD sets. I've seen many at different places, such as friends' and relatives' houses over the years and I have never been very impressed. To me the pictures just looked "grainy" and "cold" like a computer monitor. While the price of my Sony plasma would drop by thousands each year causing me some amount of buyer's remorse (the price of early adoption, I guess) I was still always very proud of my Sony's picture and had never seen anyone with a better looking set.
   
   I was very disappointed to find out that Sony had abandoned plasma technology all together and even their top end XBR series seemed to exhibit the qualities that I always hated about LCD pictures. I'm somewhat of a Sony snob, so this meant that I was going to look elsewhere if I wanted a nice plasma picture. I quickly learned from my research that Pioneer and Panasonic have some of the best plasma sets currently.
   
   During my research I had also learned that Sharp apparently makes the best LCD set. I didn't pay much attention as I was focused on plasmas. However, a friend handed me an HHGregg flyer that had an unbelievable price on the Sharp Aquos D64 series. Sure enough, the price was unbelievable as the store was out company wide. They did, however, have this model the D82 for $500 more (classic bait and switch). As I headed for the front door, the salesman told me he would see what he could do. There aren't too many stores that haggle anymore, but HHGregg is one of them.
   
   A few minutes later I had purchased D82 for the advertised price of the D64 and had a Sharp Blu-ray player thrown in as well (all for $1850). A pretty fair piece of negotiating I thought, but what had I done? What about my research? What about the fact that I hated LCD sets and really wanted a plasma set? I had not read a single review on the Sharp Aquos LC46D82U and now I owned one!
   
   Fortunately, this set has the most beautiful picture that I have ever seen. I've owned a Playstation3 for 9 months and had not been that impressed with Blu-ray, but wow, what a difference the 1080p with HDMI makes! The games on the PS3 look especially good, much better than on my old plasma set. The cable box in 720p with its component hookup looks great too. None of the "grainy-ness" I've seen on other LCD sets. There is very little blurring because the pixels are fast due to the 120 hz refresh rate, the colors are awesome to look at, and the set looks good in any lighting condition. It even automatically adjusts the brightness (the back light) automatically.
   
   This set is twice as thick as the D64 series, but it's got a beautiful piano black finish that matches my PS3 nicely, and its materials make it look higher end than the D64. 3 HDMI inputs seem right. No PC input, but an inexpensive HDMI-DVI adapter takes care of that in a hurry. The Sharp remote is a bit cheap looking, but my cable remote controls everything except the wide/zoom options, so I hardly never see it. The sound on my Sony Wega Plasma was impeccable and this set doesn't even come close. However, I quickly learned that this is the case with pretty much all sets now, so I'm not docking the Sharp any points here. For example, no sets other than the Pioneer Elite Series even seem to come with an output for a powered subwoofer. I guess the industry wants us to buy a separate surround sound package.
   
   Overall, I'm thrilled with this set and would highly recommend it. Even though I did not purchase it through Amazon I see that they have a good price on it (sans Blu-ray player) and would not hesitate to save the taxes next time out. Oh, the Sharp Blu-ray player they gave me with my set? I'm giving it to my father for his birthday next week.



2. We are really pleased with our purchase. The picture quality is the best anyone could ever hope for. This HDTV was shipped out on 12/30/2007 and delivered to our home on 01/04/2008, considering the New Year's Day holiday. This was actually 7 days before the original estimated delivery date!! Absolutely no problems. Set up was fast and easy. We would highly recommend this product!



3. I don't know where to start, so I guess I'll go back a couple months. Back in November I had purchased a 1080P 47" Westinghouse from BestBuy, the TV featured blacks which looked like grays, 30 second warm-up period and finally locked up after less than two weeks. I returned it for a full refund and began researching other brands/models. After all of my research it came down to three choices: Sharp Aquos, Sony Bravia XBR and Samsung. In the end I went with Sharp, the CNET review sold me.
   
   So I finally ordered my Sharp Aquos early January, I've never bought from Amazon before and with the exception of my mattress and box spring I've never ordered something this large online before. I have to admit I was somewhat afraid of which could lie in store for me. But all of my worries turned out to be just worries.
   
   I received my LCD TV in less than a week of ordering it and fell in love with it. Blacks look like blacks and the contrast level floors me. Mass Effect for xbox360 is absolutely breath taking. For games like Burnout Paradise you actually get drawn into the game because the color is so vivid and the refresh rate appears almost instantaneously. High definition content looks spectacular too, watching Transformers on HDDVD was almost as good as it was on the big screen.
   
   The only gripe I have with it is that I think that it uses a 6-bot color profile and not an 8-bit color profile. Maybe I'm being too picky, just about everything I've thrown at it has looked flawless. Overall it's a great LCD TV for anyone looking to upgrade or buy their first LCD panel.
   
   Also, I wish all of the LCD TV manufactures would have continued to support the DVI-D interface longer. Most people will just do what I did and use a HDMI-to-DVI-D cable to power my MCE system, but HDMI-DVI cables do not support dual link DVI, so there is less bandwidth in the cable. If companies like Nvidia would release HDMI port equipped cards I wouldn't even mention it, but the only products offering HDMI ports on them are motherboard manufactures using onboard graphics...yuck
   
   One final note, Amazon has made me a firm believer in them after this purchase. With-in 30 days they lowered the price on this TV, so I followed the steps in order to be refunded the price difference. I was on the phone for less than 5 minutes and they green lighted my refund difference. I still can't believe it, it was so simple and hassle free. Kudos, Kudos.



4. Compares with top of the line SONY and SAMSUNG. All the bells and whistles but at hundreds of dollars less.



5. I originally owned a 42d62u that developed problems and sharp replaced it with a refurbed 42d64u that came with problems. They replaced that set with a new 46d82u that i received today. It is an 803xxxx serial. I could not be happier having owned sharps with problems i was not expecting to be this pleased with the set. The picture is amazing and looks great with both cable hd and bluray. Sharp went above and beyond what i would expect a company to do when dealing with a warranty claim. My 62u was 2 months over the warranty when they agreed to replace it, which is why they sent me a refurbished 64u and not a new one. When that set had issues they upgraded me to this new 46d82u. Great set that handles everything i've tested with no motion blur, no banding and an overall amazing picture. Do not let sharp's lcd issues scare you away from their lcd's. They have the best customer service i have ever experienced, they stand behind their products, and will make every effort to make the customer satisfied if they have a set with a problem.

5 comments about Samsung LNT3253H 32-Inch LCD HDTV.

1. I bought the Samsung LNT3253H 32 inch lcd tv and found that after only a few months, the TV whistles so loudly it sounds like a tea pot. The picture is great, but the annoying noise coming from the back of the TV is awful. I'm sending it back. Hold off on buying this model until a fix is made.



2. i had my tv since March (4 months) and its a complete piece of junk. after turning on the tv for about 5 minutes it starts a "humming" sound that gets so loud that its impossible to listen to the tv. i called for service and no one has even responded. (as i write this i have been on hold for 30 minutes)So take it from me..save your money DO NOT buy Samsung TVs - great picture, lousy TV.



3. We bought this model in February from Best Buy, and a couple of months later it starting making a loud high pithed ringing noise and also seemed to get very hot. We called Best Buy and they sent a repair person from out of town (3 hours away). They took the set and won't have it back to us for at least 3 weeks. Best Buy won't give us a loaner tv, so we're stuck without our tv. This set definitely needs to be recalled. I couldn't recommend this set to anyone.



4. I bought this TV even with all the warnings about the high pitched sounds and I'm glad I did. I got a great deal on it, the picture is great , and I don't regret it!



5. I have had this tv for about 6 month's and I have to say it is a great tv! I LOVE IT!!!! my buddy has a 52' version of this tv and it is the same way! Just a all around great tv!!!.
