Pros: Great picture. Cheap! Has a DVI connection.

Cons: Remote is bulky and has to be on the exact right angle and is slow to resound. There is NO WAY to adjust the colours manually.

This is a great buy if you are on a budget. If you can afford more buy a better TV! If I could go back, I would have spent extra on another TV for a better remote and the ability to adjust the colours. Sometime the faces of people bleed pink which is ugly and annoying. Sitting far enough away helps a little but it is still noticeable.

You get what to pay for!!
