This is a great TV! I recommend getting a calibration disc to get your settings just right. I purchased the Disney World of Wonder DVD.

Not sure if you missed my review, but this TV is very bad quality... and again there is always the 1% chance I got a bad unit, but that seems to be too much of a coincidence for a super cheap tv. I have ps3, xbox360 and now PS4 and when I hooked them up the TV still looked awful, so I got the 60" samsung smart tv instead, and its INCREDIBLE. It was like 300 more or something but so worth it. Wait til Black Friday and get something good! Dont cheap out, thats my only advice.

I've had my 52" 650 since memorial dday weekend...and coming from the video industry, it's the best screen around. For thos of you comparing the 650 vs 750 vs 850; check the technical details even at a store. I walked into the CC & BB locally and yes they were all set up side by side; but since the local store wanted to sell more 850s, it was "tuned" better. The default settings have changed including the brightness level; so when you are comparing TV screens; make sure that the identical output; down to the connection is being used and that both units are identically tuned, i.e. brightness, contrast, presets...99% of the time you will find them not to be. The best tuned TV this week will not be the one next week!

Well let me put it this way, you are blowing up the image to fit with no more data available. That said SD willalways look like crap on a larger screen, that is a fact of life. I dont find this tv to be any worse or better then my Sharp or my Panny. Bottom line, blow up a 35mm negative and a 8 x10 negative to a poster and guess which will look better, same thing here.

Run away from this tv, if you're looking for a quality picture. I kept it 2 weeks and sold it. My 60" Samsung (About 2 years old) has a much, much better picture. If you'll accept a poor quality picture for a low price, than its fine. But, if a quality picture is worth an extra couple hundred...than buy a Samsung. I had Sharp send out a technician, and he even said you won't get a Samsung picture on a Sharp tv. Don't be fooled by 4K, no matter what you read. My advice, stay away from 4K for a couple more years, and save awhile longer until you can get a Samsung. The difference is night and day. If you buy the Sharp, you'll remember what I said for years. Good Luck.

I bought the sceptre X508BV 50 inch in january 2013,I have had no problem with the TV so far,it is just a normal TV with just the regular ports on the side,the picture is very good.It is not a high tech TV with a lot of featuers,So far with the price I paid of $478 like the TV.

Rich, why do you feel you really need to tweek this TV so much. You stated that my earlier reply back to you, was not useful. Do you own this tv? IF not, no wonder you didn't like my reply. This television only involves minor tweeking of the Contrast and the backlight. This will drastically result in a better picture than those 3 standard settings. Do not mess with the color pallettes or anything elso at that matter. They are set perfectly to accomadate Toshiba's hd dvd players and so forth. hd input source from hd dish network/direct tv also looks great. If you are really into tweeking your set, my guess is that it will only hurt you with this tv. Toshiba really did a great job on this t.v. Not much messing around. It reallylooks wonderful straight out of the box. I would just set the contrast and backlight. thats it!!!

Thanks for the review Robert! Good tip about the 3 series of Samsung TV's against the older 2 versions. I was all set to buy an older model ending in 2, the 4272 to be exact, but now I think I'll wait.......

Have been watching this as well. Look at the ratings. I own one and its the best LCD on the market at the moment IMHO. The lowest price I have seen here at Amazon was $2940.00 USD a while back. Which is what I got it for. Since folks have been buying it, and the ratings continue to be 4.75+ stars, the price has been creeping up towards what the local BB and CC are charging for it ($3800+ in my area). I think once the 71 and 81 series hit the streets, this one will drop for sure. But until that time, this one is top dog, at least in my house. The picture maxed out in 1080P will just blow you away!! Have been watching this as well. Look at the ratings. I own one and its the best LCD on the market at the moment IMHO.

Bill, thanks for replying, I agree with you. I could not wait anymore, and I bought mine at Costco a few weeks ago, $639 was just too good to pass up. I think it's fine for a room with little natural light, but yes is seems dimmer than my old 37" panasonic plasma. But I am very happy with the picture quality and it's bright enough for my setup. I really like the TV so far.Marcel.

I am sorry to say that these questions are over my head. I don't know what any of those things mean. But my assumption is that since all of those things matter to you, this tv is likely not for you. Like I mentioned in my review, the Netflix did not work very well. So I expect that the other smart features are also unimpressive. That doesn't bother me, since I use my bluray player for that. Also, the picture in motion is not the greatest, so that might be an issue for you too. For my basic requirements, I am satisfied with this. I know that this is not the best tv, but the price was good & I like it. I am sorry to say that these questions are over my head. I don't know what any of those things mean.

Hello--I just bought this TV and it was delivered on April 1st. I have it set up with a Directv HD satellite box via an hdmi cable. The picture is very good to excellent. I also have a 50" plasma and compared to this Toshiba, I think [the plasma] has a better picture, but I also have an older 20" Samsung lcd and this Toshiba blows it away. I think you'll be happy if you purchase this TV and connect it to an HD source. One drawback I can see is that viewing angles are not the best; that's something that lcd's are known for. If you watch this TV off to one side as opposed to straight on viewing, the colors get a bit washed out. The other thing I noticed is that this TV has only one antenna/cable input. My old TV that this one replaced had 2, and I was able to plug in the satellite box to one and a "rabbit ears" antenna to the other. Then I was able to switch to the antenna feed and watch our extra local over-the-air TV channels (such as 2, 5, 7, 9 in Chicago). (I can get the digital local channels with satellite, but not the extra 5.1, 5.2, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, etc. channels) I suppose I could buy a splitter/diplexer to split the signal, but it might not work with satellite (I believe it will work with cable but I'm not sure). Other than that (and the viewing angles), I'm very, very pleased with this TV.

Yea I can't wait that long and I heard this TV has a horrible buzz issue so I'm sadly just going to downgrade a buy a PN50B650. It's the exact same TV except not as thin, yet still pretty thin.

I have found two other differences - 6350 comes with quad stand and WiFi ready; 5500 - square stand and WiFi capable. Coming to difference in refresh rate, as long as you buy the TV less than 39" 60Hz is absolutely fine, 120 is just a hype for 32" version. 5500 is VFM. 6350 is bit of luxury. Hope that answers your question.

I had a 22" Samsung for 6 years and it performed beautifully. When I needed a larger screen I looked at Samsung. The 40" Samsung 6400 I bought also performs beautifully. I bought the 6400 because I can receive movies and text on my Laptop and see them on the TV Screen. I know I can do it on the 6400. If this is important to you, check to see if the 6300 can do it also. Bob C

J. Greer, which Best Buy did you get your TV from? The ones that I have visited in MI are not even carrying any 950s, I am not sure why. Also, did any of you compare the picture quality of the 950 with the 850? Is there a big improvement? Not sure which one I want to get, I realize one is LED and one is not but the A850 has a great deal on it while the 950 is on the expensive side for me. If there is a big difference I am willing to spend extra on the 950. Thanks!
