So, I didn't even buy this tv...my 2 year old did when she got a hold of my phone and placed the order. I had every intention of returning it, but thought I would take a look and see how poor the quality was (I expected the worse for the price only being a little over $400...my phone cost more than that). From the second I turned it on I knew that I was in love. I've had this tv now for about three months and I could never even dream of returning it. The following is why:
1. Great Picture. The picture on this tv is phenomenal. I always see those big flat screens at the store that are 1080p and the picture just looks weird to me. Almost life-like, to the point where it creeps me out. This tv does not bring picture quality to the point where it feels like I'm watching a play, but it does bring it to that point where I feel like I am watching a crisp movie that is vibrant in color. So, whenever my daughter insists on watching Barney's What's This Color?, she has no problems making out the colors.
2. Great Sound. I've read that the thinner the tv, the more the sound quality suffers. But that isn't true with this tv, simply just because I believe that this tv is a rare breed where just about everything is perfectly made. Don't get me wrong, the speakers aren't as good as the $3000 audio set you in your car, but as far as tv's go the sound quality is through the roof. So, when my daughter wants to watch Barney's Let's Sing ABC's, she hears every single letter with clarity.
3. Easy Setup. A lot of people have been complaining about this tv only having 2 HDMI ports. How many do you need? There's AV ports for things like your DVD player (who has $300 for a Blu-Ray Player?), HDMI ports for things like your Roku, video games, or even surround sound, it also has cable input for you cable tv. There are also others back there, but I have never had to use them. But what I'm saying is that when my daughter wants to watch Barney The Greatest Hits on DVD, then ten minutes later she wants to watch Barney Goes to the Zoo on Netflix, all it takes is the quick press of a button and she is on to the next thing of Barney.
Sadly, I think that we may be watching just a little too much Barney. But, even though I may be a little sick of Barney, at least this tv has made it just a slightly bit more enjoyable. But I think it's time for my daughter's nap...one of the only time's I actually get to watch something for myself, so it looks like I have a date with a bag of popcorn, an episode of The Walking Dead, and a great tv to enjoy it on.
