Good Points

If you want a full HD TV this is the one!! HD pictures are fantastic especially watching the football and wildlife programmes. The motion plus helps here as well to keep the picture pure. The colours are just so vibrant its amazing and everyone who sees the picture is amazed by the clarity. The upscalling on SD pictures is great as well, it does a great job on Flash Gordon on the SCi Fi channel for example bringing it pretty close to what you would expect from a full HD transmision. I have seen some reviews on this TV by 'experts' who have knocked the sound quality, I am absolutely baffled by this because its great with excellent clarity and the ability to set the sound to your liking. Obviously if you want surround sound , like with all TVs, you simply buy a home cinema system although I didnt feel the need to in the end.The rose black colour just rounds off a perfect TV and my advice is if you want a 40 inch LCD TV this is the one to go for!!!

Bad Points

Good Points

great picture quality,smart design.i thought the glossy screen would suffer from reflections from ambient lighting etc but it does'nt.overall,a very good tv.cannot find any faults with it.well worth its asking price.

Bad Points

it takes a while to set up.each input has it's own settings but it is well worth spending a little time with it.i do not like the game,movie or cinema modes as these settings are locked.dynamic mode is best avoided unless you like a really vivid picture oherwise there are plenty of adjustments to suit everyone.

Overall score: 9.1
