I was looking for something manageable in size to have on the corner of my desk in my home office and this unit has really worked out great. I have it connected to cable and the picture is respectable with standard analog cable channels, but where it really shines is on the hi-def channels. Most cable operators broadcast local hi-def channels free and clear (not scrambled) and this TV has a QAM tuner which can pick those up - and they are really sharp. For the money (its available at Sam's Club for $169), you really can't beat it. 12 of 13 people found the following review helpful: By milligi "tvphobia" (Midwest, U.S.) - See all my reviews This review is from: 15.6" Westinghouse w1603 720p Widescreen LCD HDTV - 16:9 500:1 5ms 1 HDMI ATSC/QAM/NTSC Tuners (Black) - B (Electronics) This is just the size I needed for my kitchen counter. Very clear picture--good sound--but the onscreen "menu" display is disappointingly small. I sit 5 feet from the screen and cannot read the 1/4 inch high, medium blue letters on dark blue background. To maintain the same picture quality in order to adjust the brightness/color/etc., too much clarity lost if I remain standing in front of the screen, so when I move closer to see the display--at about 2.5 feet from the TV--I must stoop over with my nose to exact center of the screen. Just because it's a small screen (7.5 inches high) does not mean the menu display had to also be small. Even changing the letters from medium blue to yellow would have been an improvement! 0 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Grant R.

That said, you get what you pay for! The manual is really worthless without any explanation of terms. It has a very small angle for viewing. You can't get a real 16:9 picture. You get standard, fill, and overfill. What the heck is that? I would not buy this again or recommend it to anyone. |
