VIZIO's newest miracle, the VIZIO VU42LF LCD HDTV is a 42" Full High-Definition Liquid Crystal Display. Sporting a sleek new VIZIO design, the VIZIO VU42LF Full High Definition TV affords 1080p signal compatibility, the highest available in the industry! The New VIZIO VU42LF HDTV offers brilliant 1920 x 1080 resolution via HDMI, more than 16 Million colors, 1800:1 dynamic contrast ratio, 16:9 aspect ratio, 2-HDMI ports for optimal connectivity and packs into a space less than 4" deep with the TV stand removed (for wall mounting applications). VIZIO remains on the cutting edge of new technology offered at incredible prices. The VIZIO VU42LF HDTV. Where Vision Meets Value.

This is the second of three Vizio TV's I have purchased in the past four years and I must say these TV's are hard to beat for the price! It's hard to knock the easy to use controls and excellent picture on a TV that beats out many competitors TV's prices by at least a third of the cost.

The TV also has excellent sound from the mounted speakers which on many other brands were far inferior. I own four LCD TVs three of them are made by Vizio and they are certainly worth looking into especially when you're on a budget. I have read some reviews about the TV's breaking down and I can only tell you from my own experience, that all three of my Vizios have performed above expectations without any break downs what so ever.

Every manufacturer is going to have defective sets and most warrantees are the same regardless of who makes them. If you're on a budget (and who isn't these days?) look into Vizio. I have a new 240hz Vizio set that is one of the best pictures I've ever seen.

Panasonic Dvd Player Reviews Best 50 Lcd Hdtv Reviews

The Hitachi UltraVision is simply the ultimate high definition HDTV. From the stunning Full HD 1080p 120Hz picture quality to the convenience of 7 high definition inputs, UltraVision delivers superior Hitachi technology in one of the most energy efficient, slim and beautiful televisions ever designed.

I purchased this 42" LCD about a month or so ago after a lot of research and shopping around. I did all of my due diligence with regard to seeing all comparable sets in person to get up close and personal with the options. etc. Hitachi makes a top notch product and does have great customer service as well. In fact, I have only called them once since installing the TV and it wasn't even a question with regard to the LCD but moreso about an issue that turned out to be the interaction with my Blu-ray player and they took the time to troubleshoot the issue with success. Not to mention it was a painless wait to get to a support specialist and it wasn't outsourced but rather based in California.

This TV has a very sharp picture with true vibrant color that is spot on. I barely changed any of the factory settings with regard to the picture. The sound is decent but took some fiddling with the setups. I typically always watch this TV through the surround sound system plus I'm no audiophile so it's fine for me when running through the unit speakers. The backlight can be a little bright in the corners from time to time but it is ONLY visible when the screen is completely black. You can eliminate this if you chose to do so by setting it to a lower level. I love the picture as is and have opted to leave it be. The trade off is the best picture I feel the TV has to offer...no biggie.

I shopped around for a while to get the best deal and ended up purchasing this at Sam's Club for 7 in early December 09'. Absolutely worth the price and in my opinion it is a superior unit over comparable Vizeo's, Samsungs, etc...

I was unimpressed by looking at this tv hanging on the wall in the store with all the others. But it's black shiny look is very impressive at home. The picture quality is excellent and the colors are true. The 720p specification seemed disappointing but the actual picture was second to none. The sound quality of this flat screen is excellent. I hooked up a sound system only for movies on my DVD player. I wish these tv's would have an analog output for sound. Most flat screens have optical outputs. I would strongly recommend this product to anyone on a budget who wants an excellent tv without the high price tag. I paid only 9 for this great plasma.

46 Lcd Hdtv Reviews

The 42" Class (42-1/64" Diagonal) LC-42SB45UT, with full HD Spec 1080p resolution and an elegant new glossy black design, produces superb picture quality. The LC-42SB45UT features high contrast, fast response time and wide viewing angles. The LC-42SB45UT includes built-in ATSC/QAM/NTSC tuners, three HDMITM inputs, is compatible with 1080p signals and has 2 HD component video inputs. The LC-42SB45UT features a sleek piano black cabinet with subtle, recessed bottom-mounted speakers, and the included table stand easily removes for wall mounting applications.

I've had this TV around 2 months now and have been very satisfied. I have the following devices hooked up to the TV:

Motorola HD-PVR for cable
Magnavox Blu-ray Player
Wii game system

I may eventually run a cable to my PC as well for steaming video. The video quality is really good, especially at the 1080i/p range. SD looks pretty good and standard TV signals aren't bad but noticeably inferior to HD or SD. This is just something you have to tolerate in this price range as the TVs with really good native HD upconversion are still pretty expensive.

The only negatives that I've really found are:

1. The built-in speakers are pretty cheap sounding but would probably be adequate for a small room. This is a non-issue for me since everything goes through my surround receiver anyway. My TV's volume is always set at "0" even before this TV.

2. There is noticeable light in the corners which is obvious when you have the lights turned down and the corners are showing black - such as watching a movie with a high aspect ratio. Not a deal-breaker by any means but just a minor irritation for me.

3. Not really a fault of the TV (more of a compatibility issue with a third party remote), but when using a Harmony remote, only a few of the direct input buttons work. The TV's remote uses multiple "input" button presses to change the input. The Harmony database for this TV came up with direct input buttons so it doesn't have to scroll but only three of them work. These are (1) set of standard RCA inputs and (2) HDMI inputs. This worked out fine for me because my PVR and Blu-ray are hooked up through HDMI and my Wii is using the RCA inputs (I had to scrap my component Wii cable in the name of simplicity). Of course I could upgrade my surround receiver but it's not worth all that ;-)

The first two issues are why I give the set only four stars instead of five. Like I said, the third issue is more of an issue with the remote and the fact that the Harmony still gives more functionality than the original remote kind of nullifies this complaint.

Overall, for the money, this is a great TV and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

Dvd Vcr Player Reviews 40 lcd hdtv reviews

Hitachi's Alpha series is a breakthrough line of HDTVs that deliver a remarkably high end viewing experience at an equally impressive and accessible price. With 7 high definition inputs, a beautiful gloss design and convenient swivel stand, Alpha series gives you all the features you expect from Hitachi at prices that respond to today's demand for luxury and value.

I bought this one simply because it can fit into 40" wide opening in my old wall center (this TV has really narrow bezel, which looks great).

Pros:
- Plenty of inputs, you can connect anything to this TV, composite, S-video, component, PC, HDTV
- Picture is very good with standard definition TV, excellent with HDTV programs and Blue-ray disks
- looks nice, apparently low power use

Cons:
- There is a light you can see on the dark screen coming from bulbs located in upper left and right corner, visible only in a completely dark room.
- Black level is not the best, but only comparing with more expensive TVs
- There is a lip-sync delay when you connect HDMI video with analog audio or some combination like that, but it should be possible to fix on most today's AV receivers. This is not a problem if you use HDMI only.

Overall, good inexpensive TV from a reliable vendor.

Let me first start by saying that yes, Vizio is a value brand. However, after having seen 1080p Samsung units that are twice the price, I can definitively say that the Vizio is able to hang with the big boys.

Straight out of the box, there were some calibration issues, and each input retains its own settings; you'll have to go through the process for each device you have hooked up. After bumping down the brightness and backlighting, image quality is phenomenal. HDTV is crisp, smooth, and rarely jagged. SDTV scales nicely with an OTA antenna, and is much less pixelated than I had assumed it would be. The remote layout does leave something to be desired, but it has all of the important functionality on it (sans backlighting). PIP settings are very useful, although you cannot use PIP on certain combinations of inputs (i.e. component and RGB at the same time). This is not a huge problem, however, since you more than likely will want to flip between the tuner and another input.

I can't comment on how the XBOX 360 or PS3 look on it, but I can tell you that the Wii performs extremely well with component cables. I even have cables with extra thick jack sleeves, and they fit without any issue.

Sound is just as mediocre as any other flat panel tv in this price range; that's why I hooked it up to the surround sound as quickly as possible.

For those worried about the illuminated Vizio logo, it quickly dims after power up; I've not been distracted by it once, plus it looks pretty classy.

Long story short, at under 0, you will not be able to beat this deal in terms of overall quality and value.

Pros:
Great image quality
No ghosting
Works excellently as a computer monitor
Wii looks fantastic!
Good PIP functionality
Value, value, value

Cons:
Slight light bleeding from upper right hand corner (probably just my set)
So-so speakers
Remote layout

I'm writing this review after owning this TV since it was put on store shelves in 2007. I have had no problems out of it, aside from the glitch that was in the original firmware. When looking for a TV at that time my goal was not to break two thousand for a 42 inch 1080p, and also have 1080p input via the VGA due to the lack of HDMI on the XBOX 360 at that time. I will list some positive, and negative points of this TV:

Pros:
-Support 1080p over component, VGA, and HDMI.
-Vivid colors and very crisp picture quality.
-Handles SD content very well.

Cons:
-Black Level is not deep.
-"Dynamic Contrast" is very obvious when doing it's task, is best when off.
-HDMI has issues with the Pre-June 2007 firmware and PC mode.
-The noise reduction filter is lackluster at best.

Additional Points:
-BAD CUSTOMER SUPPORT!
Thanks to the AVSForums, it was discovered the HDMI issue with PC mode over HDMI was a firmware issue. This issue could be resolved by turning the TV off and back on when using the HDMI, but that is not a very convenient solution. When contacting customer support about this, they not only lied about there being a newer firmware, but I was also told by one of the agents that I was "making up" these issues because they had the TV and did not have any of the issues I was having >.>...I was able to fix the issue at a later time due to someone on the AVSForums sharing a unlinked webpage on the LG site having firmware upgrades and instructions. Although, this was not shared until about 1 year after owning the TV.

Breakdown:
When this TV came out, it was the only TV under two thousand with 1080p support on component, VGA, and HDMI. I am a happy owner of this TV and the overall quality and build of this TV is great, but at its current pricetag on Amazon (new and used) it is not worth the cost. With the same money you can buy a better TV that isn't almost 2 years old and outdated based on the newer sets.

Reason for Rating:
Even though the TV may be outdated if you are looking for a TV now, the fact that it is and has been a great quality TV. After almost 2 years of using this TV, it has earned a 4 star rating based on it's overall performance.

Bought this on the advice of my neighbor. Plug & play. I had it on in time to see the Red Sox lose to the Yankees, so I switched over to a movie, the Bad Leiutenant, Harvey Keitel dancing a drug induced solo minuet in all his natural born glory. I've got to get HD! I paid 25% less than the Amazon price. My comcast remote won't recognize the TV code so I have to use separare remotes for each piece of equipment. Other than that, so far so good.

Even in Costco I cannot find any 46" full HDTV for less than $[...]. Mine arrived in 6 days. After buying two HDMI cables, one for my cable box and one for my DVD player, it was ready to play. If you have a home theater system I would assume you already have the optical cable for the DVD player as well. This set is no longer available on Costco online. I did not know anything about Sceptre. I read dozens of the reviews they had. Without the reviews the price made me skeptical about this brand. The reviews were terrific. Since the set is not available there, I came here to Amazon where I've had nothing but great experiences buying stuff. For those like myself, that don't want to waste their time and money on turkeys, I felt an obligation to help, whomever. I love this set. The picture is spectacular. There are lots of adjustments for sound and picture. The PIP is not only sizable in that little extra screen you can move around, it will expand your PIP to approximately 21" side by side with your other picture! Then you can switch the audio. For a sports fanatic like me, well...wow! This set is better, yes better than I expected. For a price so much lower than the Vizio's, Sharp's, Panasonic's, and Sony's, this set is a SLAM DUNK!
