Dean, Sheffield
- Good points:
-
I gave this product a 9 out of 10, however, when you consider what you get for your money it is more like 10 out of 10.
Good connectivity although I have a feeling the Ethernet connection will never see a day when it can stream iplayer.
I would more than recommend this plasma to anyone looking for value for money - Bad points:
-
Plastic surround gets marked very easy if you are not too careful and as a result in certain light the surround looks a bit dull. Sound is not that great but if you have gone this far on the purchase of a plasma you should be looking at a decent cinema sound to set it off.
Free sat tuner and its picture quality is great but if you want to record, it may be better to buy a stand alone Plasma and tuner.
