Lcd review

Westinghouse TX-42F430S 42″ 1080p LCD HDTV, That is a very good point.

I strongly recommend that you review the warranty. I bought a 32″ Westy a year ago. After fighting the cable company for ten months trying to get them to fix a myriad of problems (they fixed some and admitted none), it turned out that the aspect of digit

A few weeks ago we learned that most consumers put a heavier emphasis on cost than any other specification when selecting an HDTV. So we decided to obtain and review a TV that can be considered a value brand. While not the cheapest TV on the market today the Westinghouse TX-42F430S is definitely a value for what you get. This Westy has many of the cool features that the more expensive tier 1 TVs do and a couple that they don’t.

Features:

• 1080p with ATSC/NTSC/QAM tuners
• Four HDMI inputs
• 8 msec response time
• 1000:1 CR
• Autosource switching
• Spine Design

The TV has a clean black design that looks very professional. We have not been impressed with previous designs from Westinghouse. But this one will complement any room that its placed in. The TV looked good when it was turned on as well. We found the picture was clear, bright, and had good color. The only issue we could find with HD sources was the black level. We found that the TV could not match the black levels of the SONY Bravia. Fast motion looked good but if you looked very carefully you could see some motion blur.

Another area the current model improves over past models that we have watched is the off angle viewing. We found that you can pretty much sit anywhere in the room and see the picture with minimal color degradation. Looking at detail we were pleased with the results except in dark scenes. Bright HD content looked as good as tier 1 panels. Standard Definition content did not fare as well as HD did. This is pretty much true with all HDTVs with the exception of Plasma.
