XVT553SV

Product Review (submitted on December 15, 2010):

My expectations where completely blown out of the water!!!! This TV is simply AWESOME. I already had a HDTV, but when our bedroom TV went out we took the opportunity to upgrade our living room. I really didn't think the jump would be that much different from a Sharp 46" LCD TV (60hz) to a 55" Tru-LED (240hz), but boy was I wrong. The clarity is outstanding and the rich, vibrant colors pop. It is as though the people are literally standing in my living room.
Bluray and VUDU movies took it to a whole other level. Inception on VUDU is highly recommended to experience what this TV has to offer. The apps are easy to use and set up was easy. I had trouble connecting to my wireless account but that was due to my routers settings and not the TV. (My power had gone out some time before apparently and had reset my password and WPA key.) Once I addressed the router the TV connected easily.
The slide out keyboard makes the remote a bit bulky and heavier than typical remotes but it helps it feel sturdier, and the advantages of the full qwerty keyboard far outweigh the added thickness to the remote. I have large hands and am able to use the keyboard with relative ease.
Gaming on the PS3 is completely different. The screen images flow so smooth and I am seeing new details that I haven't previously seen. The only thing that would make this TV complete would be if my wife could get on Skype on the TV. I work away and this is one of a handful of things that she will still have to use the computer for.
So to conclude this review. Carry your expectations as you normally would when buying a new TV and be prepared for those expectations to be completely surpassed. I am completely satisfied with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone in the market.
