LONG DELAYS and REMOTE SUX

LONG DELAYS BETW/ CHANNELS:
- 2-SECOND DELAY when pressing channel up/down.
- 4-SECOND DELAY when entering the channel#. Not sure if this is b/c the remote doesn't have an enter button.

REMOTE SUX:
- lacks ENTER button
- lacks a LAST CHANNEL/RETURN button
- sellers should start posting a pic of the remote also!

I thought I could live with the DELAYS, but it was intolerable after a while. I ended up buying a refurb'd Vizio for my room and moved this one down to the kitchen, which was ok since I mounted it to the wall and can watch DVD's there now without any clutter of adding a dvd player.

Item was good but...

When I got the item, the 1/3 of box was broken. I worried about the TV itself. Fortunately, TV was not damaged and works well.

very nice

This tv with the built in dvd player has a great picture. The only thing is the controls located on the tv are on the top and aren't easy to see which would only be a problem if it's wall mounted. Of course the remote solves that problem so be sure not to lose it!

It's a good buy

That is my second big screen TV and I am satisfied its easy to set up and convenient to choose functions. Some sets have a lot fancy function but probably never be used. That one has every essential element for watch news, sports and replay DVD. A little glitch is for some digital channels, the picture show a little double shadows when watching in closing distance but I am not sure is it the channels problem or due to the set. Overall, for a 1000 bucks to have that 46', it's a good buy.

Great price, so-so quality

I wasn't expecting to get a top of the line 1080p TV, and I pretty much got what I expected. The Aquos is very attractive TV- it has a very pleasing high-gloss black finish, a nice stand and a cool, grey speaker grill. The sound on the Aquos is terrible, so I suggest getting your own receiver and speakers (which I had, so I didn't really mind). The picture quality is great, but the other day I noticed some very, very faint banding on the screen. It's hardly noticeable, but if you're like me (you over-inspect everything), then it might start getting annoying. My girlfriend says that she cannot see any banding, so maybe I'm just seeing things. Overall I'm very happy with the TV, considering the price. I picked it up for $800, and after a few months of research, this was the best price/ value I could find for a 46" TV made by a reputable company with decent customer service. If you're looking to buy a quality, cheap 46" TV, then the Aquos might be for you!

Excellent bang for the buck

I've purchased a few of these for the office and have one at home. Picture quality is good. The scaling features make SD content look pretty decent and smooth, especially compared to some Samsung models I was considering. Lots of HDMI inputs with assignable labels. Connected to basic cable, switching between analog channels is very slow, but digital channels change quickly. Built in speakers sound adequate in a small space, but sound pretty weak in larger rooms. The included stand is solid and not prone to wobbling.

Color Settings?

I got this TV last week and I can't seem to get the red color to the way I want. I believe it's the contrast, it's either to red or their is to much pink in it and as a previous posted said there is no happy medium. My 37 inch Vizio is perfect with no adjustments. Is there a firmware update for this or does anyone have settings I can try out? It's very irritating and I'm about to take it back but figured I'd post something and ask first.

Fantastic Digital Sound & Picture!

I lean toward Sony products normally, however, this TV called out to me. I had no second thought about tagging one of these puppies and was so happy I did when we got home and hook-up! DVD come though loud & clear with my Upscaling Recorders & Players. I Found the sound of this unit to be better than my slightly older Sony and one step lower in quality. Still prefer to hook up to the AV System for my theatre sound.
A terrific unit with easy to run On-Screen Set-up menus and many auto features for self-detection.

Excellent TV

I've owned this TV now for 7 months and it still works perfectly. I mainly use it for my Xbox 360 and DVDs. Both look amazing on it. I've had zero troubles and use it around once a week.

I have even left it on by accident for 5 days while I was away and it had no problems. I got it for $450 too and couldn't be happier. Excellent for a bedroom or small living room like in a one bedroom apartment.

Very unhappy with this Sharp Aquos TV

Received this TV as a Father's Day gift and it was professionally installed in our master bedroom. Most of our TV viewing is done in the family room so we did not use the Sharp Aquos 32" TV that much. Unfortunately despite the lack of use the TV went completely dead on us after a few months. The first time this happened the green power light was blinking and nothing else would work. We couldn't turn the set on at all. After several calls and waiting for parts the set was finally repaired. A few months after this the set went dead again. This time the set would turn on and you could hear the sound but the screen was black (no picture). Again we had to jump through hoops, make numerous calls and wait weeks for it to finally be repaired. I have had good luck with Mitsubishi TVs in the past and I am very sorry to say my first experience with a Sharp TV was very poor. Adding to the general problem was how long it took Sharp to resolve the issues.

Major defect on this model

After six months of ownership, this TV began turning itself on randomly. The main circuit board was replaced. The TV still turns itself on. (However, the sound is now improved significantly!) We expect to have the TV replaced. No one seems to know why it turns itself on. The circuit board took four months to be delivered after the initial complaint. We were told the part was backordered. Maybe our complaint is a common one?

Big dissappointment!

This review is not for this model exactly but the LC-26AD22U which is the equivalent (I think) in the Aquos line. This is my seventh flat screen (LCD or plasma) that I have purchased and the 3 stars are for the picture quality, I took off 2 stars for the poor audio quality. After reading other reviews- I thought - that others might be asking too much from the audio section of a TV that for most it was not going to be the main TV (I bought it for my daughter's room), How bad could it be? .. well, this HDTV has (so far) the worst audio section of any TV I have owned (I have/had Samsung, Hitachi, Sylvania, Dynex, Westinghouse) It is incredible low, thin and "flat" sounding (words of my daughter and spouse). So my advice to others is that if you don't care about the audio quality because you will hook it to an audio system then go for it but if this is a stand alone HDTV and you want a good sounding one then you better skip the brand completely (and least in this size) and check others. I sincerely don't recommend it and I am going to return this one. Thanks for your attention.

Worst TV mistake I made

Have had this set for about two years. The sound quality is horrible. I have to turn it up to the highest level most of the time and still can't hear everything especially if there is any thing else going on. What's the point of having the TV if you can't hear it while you are on an exercise machine or my son is playing on the floor.

Now, the picture turns off for no reason. The screen just goes black like you have turned it off. Not gray, black. Sometimes, it returns to normal after you switch the TV off and on about five times. The sound still stays on though. It drives my 3-year old son crazy especially if he is watching his favorite show.

Whatever you do, spend your money on something else. This TV is not worth the headache. Now if I can just remember if I had gotten the extended warranty.

Cheap, easy sound workaround; Sharp LC-26DV22U

Sharp LC26DV22U 26-inch LCD TV with Built-In DVD Player I too was disgusted with the poor quality/quantity of sound from my new Sharp LC26DV22U TV. So, I pulled the back cover off the set and installed a female 1/8 inch stereo phone jack (Radio Shack part number; 274-0246). I wired it directly to the TV's speakers using bell-wire (from an old telephone cord). Then simply plugged in a PC sound system I had laying around. It works wonderfully and it was easy to do. Just use the wire diagram on the phone jack package and connect to the marked terminals on each speaker of the set. I didn't disconnect the set's speakers, so the TV will still work with or without the PC speaker system plugged in.

What Audio Problem?

I bought this set to hang on the kitchen wall. The convenience of a combined DVD was a major factor in the purchase decision. I'd read the reports criticizing the audio but decided to take a chance and buy it anyway - and I'm glad I did. The audio seems OK to me. Half-volume at 13' away across the other side of the kitchen is more than adequate. Audio quality is also fine. Anywhere near full volume is way too loud. I really don't know what the complaints are about - volume? audio quality? or both? The picture quality is also superb as is often the case with Sharp and the DVD is so user-friendly it's a pleasure to use.

Dud

I only had this television for a week before I returned it.

Pros:
No dead pixels.
Standard-definition video looked good.
Cheap price for a 32" HDTV that's not from a low-end brand.

Cons:
Speakers have no bass, and squeal and vibrate in loud settings.
Changing channels up and down took too long, and the time to enter in numbers for a specific channel was too short.
1080i video sometimes wasn't deinterlaced properly.
Occasionally when I turned it on, the TV shut itself off, then on, sometimes repeatedly. This was the main reason that I had to return it.

Great Picture

Very good TV for the price. I am a recent retiree, and I watch the History Channel etc, but I also have a Playstation 3. The TV handles all of the challenges placed before it very well. My hat is off to Sharp for a job well done.

Good tv for the money

Great TV for the bedroom or office (i have it in corner of my office). Good 6ms refresh time is pretty fast. There are faster tv's out there but not in this price range. Given that it is a 32 inch tv, picture seems very good even though it is only 720p. I don't think you would build a home theater around this TV but is great TV for smaller spaces.

Great price for a flat panel

This is my first LCD Flat Panel TV. I upgraded from a 24" CRT Flat Screen by Toshiba.

Pros:

1. Great Picture (It's only 720p but the picture comes through great and is a big improvement over a regular TV)
2. Smart Stretch setting: this allows one to watch regular TV in widescreen and nothing looks distorted.
3. Inexpensive: I can't afford an expensive flat panel HDTV so this was a great choice for me

Cons:

1. This set has awful sound. I hooked up a Bose CineMate system to it and that fixed this problem. No matter what you hook up to it, you will need to attach some speakers to make watching this TV bearable.
2. No option to turn off the internal speaker. This was an issue when setting up my external speakers. Turning the volume all the way down was a good workaround, though.


I've only had the set for about a day, so, there may be more pros & cons but, overall, this set is a huge improvement over my CRT set and did not make me go broke!
