Sharp LC60LE6300U 60-inch 1080p 120 Hz LED HDTV

Great for the price

I bought this TV for a good price from HHGreg for $999 and here are my views .

Picture Quality: I would give it 3 stars as this TV lacked the crispness i was looking for that my other LG 42 inch had.All sports channels however looked great.

With that being said i have seen reviews of other sharp models that required manual caliberation for an enhanced picture clarity. i have yet to do that.

Sound quality : Decent but do not expect a home theater effect.

Setup feature : I would give a 5 star with the ease i could set the TV up from the box and a very simplified process.

All in All it's good bang for your buck , however if you were to compare it with a Samsung or an LG then be prepared to pay the price for it.

Update : After changing the settings as sugessted by the folks at amazon (which is as below) , the clarity and cripness has greatly improved and is on par with a bravia or a samsung. I have changed my review to a 4 star.

-------------------------------------------------------
Under PICTURE SETTINGS: AV MODE: USER
OPC: OFF
BACKLIGHT: 0 (STANDARD)
CONTRAST: +28
BRIGHTNESS: 0
COLOR: -4
TINT: +4
SHARPNESS: +1
Under PICTURE SETTINGS ADVANCED
COLOR TEMP: MIDDLE
MOTION ENHANCEMENT: OFF
ACTIVE CONTRAST: ON
GAMMA ADJUSTMENT: +2
FILM MODE: STANDARD
DIGITAL NOISE REDUCTION: OFF
---------------------------------------------------

I yet have to buy a blue ray player to see the clarity of the video from the blue ray player as the DVD player i have does not have an HDMI uplink convertor which gives me an ok picture quality with the RGB cables.

I would also give a 5 star for the looks as it looks super sleek and would look bad ass mounted on the wall. :-)

Lenovo IdeaCentre Q150 40812HU Desktop Computer

The set up is easy. Don't make the same mistake as I did with the mouse. The USB dongle is in the back between the batteries. It says it but it kind of goes unnoticed if you go by the illustrations. So it does actually pay to read the instructions. The customer service rep was very patient and very kind. I got this for the TV to pay web content. It is tiny and completely noise free. I have to admit, though, after a few days I got a wireless full size keyboard and mouse. That would be the only drawback I can see to purchasing this. The remote mouse/keyboard is tiny and hard to see in anything but very bright light.
