Other than size, is the 32" model the same as the large ones? Picture quality? Adjustments? Operation?

Yes, it's a high end smaller flatscreen. I love mine and added a sound bar to it for richer sound.

I have the 32" smart tv and yes it has great picture quality. Operation , adjustments and operation are are the same as any basic operation on most units.

Just purchased the 26" 450 during last days of Circuit City closing so got price close to Walmart price of the 330. Had compared the 330 for months to the same size Vizio that only costed $357, and wife could not tell the difference between all three of them, other than the Vizio was about $150 less. I really don't think there is a perception difference between 330 and 450. We use in the bed room and speakers are fine, unless you need a high powered surround sound effect.

I owe this one and a Sony XBR 32" w/ 120Hz. I find myself preferring the Toshiba; the larger screen does not come with any downside in terms of Colors, brilliance, motion - quality similar to the sony xbr. I am very pleased with the 240Hz solution for this large screen. The smaller Sony does equally well but has the smaller screen. Hope this is helpful somehow.

I got the 46" 630 model and I absolutely LOVE it. Sharp incredible picture and there is hardly ANY glare whatsoever. You won't be able to say the same thing with the 650 or 750 model. With those models, you'll be frustrated whenever you want to watch TV during the daytime if there is any window in the room or at night if any inside lights are on, because those models' screens are so reflective and cause so much glare. The 630 model also comes on a swivel stand as well.

Russell B. and MKF,Thanks for the answer. The lack of a portability explains the difference in price with the other Philips 7" frames. The ability to pass the frame around to view the pictures is a feature that I need.

My new 50" S30 is not as bright as the 3 year old 42" (720p) Panasonic plasma it replaced. The picture quality, however, is much better than the old plasma. It took me a couple of weeks to get used to it, but now it doesn't bother me (installed in my basement, little natural light) And keep in mind no plasma will be as bright as a LCD HDTV.

I am not sure how helpful this reply is, but I am in the process of upgrading an existing TV and spent about half an hour just looking at the 55" and up TV's at Best Buy yesterday for about half an hour. I watched about 8 different sets which included both Plasma (Samsung & Panasonic) along with LED edge-lit tv's from Samsung, LG, Sharp and Sony. I have to say that I only saw this on one TV and that was a Sharp 60" set. This set was set to ultra-torch mode and looked pretty crappy in general. I attributed the issue to the settings being cranked too high. I can't guarentee you that the problem would completely disappear with either a DIY adjustment or with professional calibration but I am sure it would be much, much less noticeable. My guess is that the lower end Sharp sets are going to be a little more tempermental and need more adjustments and tradeoffs. I would really like to see one of these sets in a real world set up and adjusted properly (I want a 60" TV with a smaller bexel due to space restrictions (Panny 60" ST30 is just a little too big). I really did like the looks of the LG 55LW5600. I have plasma right now and like it, but I am not convinced the blacks really are that good despite what David K. says on CNET. Some of the edge-lit LED sets do have decent black levels and detail in darker scenes. Maybe not as good as the Panny's, but they are so much brighter (will be used in a well-lit living room) and whites are white and not gray!

they aren't perfect but they are definitely more than adequate. You should look into the new 22" model. Its supposed to have better viewing angles. I have my yiynova attached to a monitor arm to give me a wide range of motions and the viewing angles don't bother me at all.

Hey Oleg, I was just wondering if you might give me/us an update on the TV. I'm about to pull the trigger on the same model/size as the one you bought and just wanted to know how satisfied you are with your purchase. Also was wondering how well the 3D works, if you would be so kind. Thank You!

I went today to look at HDtv's. I saw both the 46XBR4 and the 3000W and another 3000? Sony. All I can say is that by far the XBR4 was crisper and brighter, it looked more like reality. They had ESPN-HD feed on from Direct-TV. Is the difference worth the price, that's something you have to decide. Go look at them, I saw them at CC. I actually spent a good hour in a recliner they had setup and just watched the 46XBR4 comparing it to the sets around it. This is the one I'm getting, it was simply the best picture constantly, even better than models bigger in size with 1080p. It really stood out in the finer details when next to the other sets.

Suitable yes. Big and bright. If 1920x1080 is enough, other 32"s can fit more. UPDATE: With brightness low the text was very fuzzy, the background of letters was bright. I changed Sharpness from 50 to 20 and it's great! ORIGINAL: I set the brightness level to zero which makes most text look funky bad, but otherwise it is too bright for my eyes/room. Might be better if my computer display could adjust brightness.

I have a 32 in Element hdtv, lcd. Picture is good. I bought the 50 in for our larger living room and the quality is way better than our 32. clarity is sharp, three windows in the room do not effect glare. Great tv...

I watched the 554sv from every angle at Costco. The reflection of the overhead lights was crystal clear on this unit (as were most of the other 55" lcds) - i.e. very reflective. The 553 was slightly more matte finish so somewhat more "blurry" reflection of the overhead lights. The only one that was really matte (including Sony and Samsung as well) was the cheapest Vizio (can't recall the model number but was sub $1000 price) but it's over all picture was pixelized on motion so unacceptable to me. I'm still looking.

I can't speak directly about this monitor, but the 23" VP2365 I have and use for photo editing and printing is a real winner at less than $250..This looks like a larger version of the same, and a real steal at the current pricing on Amazon..i say "go for it!"

My mother bought the 46" and I bought the 52". Both are very nice. After visiting last week my mother called me to say when she got home (200 miles away) her set looked liked a postage stamp.The 46" is really nice - the 52" is even better, much more of a "home theater" experience. Don't forget to upgrade the sound. Both units have sound that don't do the image justice.Don't place it too high (bad for the neck) and view dead on, not at an angle. I placed mine on a cart. I can roll it closer to the seating - then when not in use roll it away. With HDMI there are few cables to contend with. By doing this the set does not dominate the room as it did when on the mantle. (too high anyway). My mother bought the 46" and I bought the 52". Both are very nice.

Thanks. Sadly Amazon gets finer details wrong some of the time. I posted this same question on the gold box page and was directed to www.sonystyle.com. The 504 TV is a 720p just like the L5000. It costs less everywhere you can find it listed. The contrast ratio is listed as 8,000:1 as compared to 13,000:1 for the L5000. Also, the MSRP for the 504 is $399... so I fail to see how it is a "doorbuster" at $379. The 32L5000's MSRP is $449. It was on sale less than a month ago for $399. Value wise $50 off is $50 off. I'm just going to wait for the 32L5000 to be $399 again.

That makes sense since we have seen some tv's that say 1,300:1 that look better than the 7,000:1 sitting right next to them. I just found out Sears keeps these in their showroom so I figure we will go check it out and order later tonight. Thanks.
