 "We are pleased with our choice." 2010-02-18
By T. L. Butler (Attleboro, MA)
This upgrade was well worth the investment of approximately $350. The picture quality with the HD cable channels is excellent. There are TV's out there now with a more fine resolution; however, what we see on the screen certainly works for us. The sound is also very good. The only cons I have are the length of time needed to go from HD to non-HD and vice versa when changing channels. The remote is not that difficult to use, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it easy. This TV is a great value at this price and especially recommend it to first time flat screen LCD HDTV buyers like my wife and me.

'Remanf' model so sorry if bias. Pulls heavy green in all chans. Horrid angle view if not 90 deg. Buggy, non-responsive 'TMI' remote. Screen menus blow & I've had better TV's to compare. RUN don't walk def p.o.s.

Thanks for the great service and attendance to my purchase.

 "It's a good value and a very nice tv" 2010-01-15
By Karl Schneider
I bought 1 of these for my bedroom after having a big (46") Toshiba in the living room for several months and was quite happy with this one as I was with the bigger set. After using it for a few months I bought another one for our RV and we have been more than pleased with all our Toshibas. We also have a 55" Samsung which other than being bigger is basically the same basic product and good quality. My biggest "like" for these Toshibas is their good selection of input options, we can connect a wide variety of gadgets to them and switch between them very easily. So far we have had no issues of problems or any complaints whatsoever. (Got all 3 from Amazon with whom we are also very pleased)

 "Great price and has everything you need!" 2009-11-20
By Scott S. Kang (Chicago, IL)
I'm not a big spender and so I was very happy to see that the Toshiba 26AV502R 26-Inch 720p LCD HDTV was being sold for under $250. I bought it refurbished and it seems to be in perfect working order (no dead pixels) and I couldn't ask for any more quality for the price. The TV has enough inputs (2 HDMI, 2 components, PC, s-video, analog) and works well with my setup. The volume isn't a problem, but I prefer it hooked up to my stereo. The picture does look like it leans slightly towards the red spectrum, but for the price, you can't beat it. This is a small detail and colors can be adjusted through the menu. I have a Xbox hooked up through HDMI (at one point, through components) and the picture comes in great with no lag at all. The PC input is great and I was finally able to project to my TV even though my graphics card doesn't not have a TV out feature. Since this is a monitor, it was able to project up to the 720p quality of my computer. Hulu never looked better. Overall, I would definitely recommend it to the bargain HDTV buyer. If you have more cash, of course, spend it on a Samsung or a Sony.

 "don't buy it" 2010-02-08
By James F. Curto
Don't buy it! The picture quality is terrible! For example, during a football game you can't see the ball go threw the uprights.

 "Bad Choice" 2010-01-30
By St A. Proute (Barbados)
This was a horrible purchase. The first one delivered had a streak down the centte of the screen and the remote did not work. Amazon readily agreed to replace it and a new one was delivered in good time. The second had the same problems as the first. Getting in touch with Viore's tech support was impossible, no one answered the tech support number provided. Amazon readily accepted the second one back and provided a credit. I am satisfied with how Amazon dealt with this matter but I would advise anyone to stay far from anything with the brand name Viore. The products do not work and their Tech Support does not exist.

great tv easy to set up ggreat picture. best buy i've made so far on amazon. was hesistant about buying electronics online but this was easier than best buys, walmart, or target. also make sure you get the extended warranty. will indeed buy again from this manufacturer!

 "TV Spontaneously Stops Working" 2010-01-09
By M. Weiss (Bay Area, CA)
Purchased from Amazon. Issues right out of the box. The TV spontaneously stops responding to both the remote and the controls on the top of the unit. It won't even turn off when you press the main power button on top. Then it will start working only to stop again. Sometimes the screen will also go blank for several minutes.



Debating whether or not to have it replaced or simply get a refund. It's a great price, but not if it has issues.



Very disappointing.

 "Good, entry-level LCD" 2010-02-10
By Coach24
I purchased this TV based on the fact that I love my older 37 inch LG LCD tv. However I have found that while this is a good tv, its not great. The viewing angle is not as good as my older LG. As you move left or right the color fades (in HD or SD) especially with live tv (ie sports). Head-on the picture is pretty good with a variety of color/picture settings to fine-tune it. I have also found that you do have to crank the volume pretty high to hear the tv as well. If you are looking for a small TV to put in a bedroom where you will always be watching it head-on, for the money, its a pretty good choice. In my case, I do have it in the bedroom, but I have it mounted on the wall with a full-motion mount so I can turn it if I am not watching head-on.

 "Good video; bad sound AND no analog audio outputs!" 2010-02-06
By Greg in NJ (Bridgewater, NJ USA)
I bought this locally in Dec 2009 and naïvely assumed it had SOME sort of analog output (for external speakers or headphones). It doesn't; the only audio output is optical/TOSlink, which is a real disappointment for me.



VIDEO

Unless you will use it as a computer monitor, the 720p resolution is fine; with smaller televisions (under 32", for sure), there is little difference between 720p and the more expensive 1080p (which is hard to find in small televisions, anyway). Anything you use as a computer monitor should be 1080p, though. I actually feed it UHF (analog) over coax from a distant two-tuner Dish Network receiver, and the picture, while not HD, is much better than I expected, and this means I don't have to rewire my house for a 3rd satellite receiver. We watch this in the bedroom - usually news or a documentary and not movies, so it's all good. Oh, one more thing: s-video is increasingly rare on new televisions, and this model does NOT have an s-video input (2 HDMI, 1 composite only).



AUDIO

The sound quality, like that of pretty much any small television, is dismal. I ended up buying Behringer MS40 external speakers (which I reviewed here on Amazon) because they had TOSlink (optical) inputs. They were expensive and not that great.



So, if you will be closer to the television than 10' or more, or have excellent hearing in a quiet environment, this is a fine set; if you are more discerning on the audio side, will be in a less-than-silent environment, or don't have ideal hearing, you might want to think twice and look at units with analog outputs which will enable you to use an inexpensive pair of self-powered computer speakers.

 "Great Picture. Easy Setup." 2010-01-12
By R. Young (Texas)
This is a very nice TV for the bedroom. Great picture and sound. SD channels even look good. I use it for both OTA and satellite reception. Setup was very easy for me. Wish it had more than one each of component and composite inputs, but overall I still give it a five. Ordered from Amazon with free shipping and it arrived in 3 days.

 "Good set but skimpy documentation" 2009-12-21
By Michael Morris (Santa Rosa, CA United States)
I would give this 5 stars if it had a real user manual. The file provided on a disk is only a color version of the B&W manual. The set has a lot of potential custom-setup options and few are documented. I'm quite experienced and managed to figure out most of them, but would have appreciated more information. I bought this for my 80 year old mother and she'll never figure out what to do if anything goes wrong, because the company provides no useful information for the average consumer who isn't an AV expert.

Finally, I saw good reviews for the sound, but I don't agree. The speakers are hidden and sound like it- very honky and stressed sounding. You can fiddle with the audio options but I found the synthetic audio modes to be very unnatural and phasy, indistinct and muddy. The best option to my taste was to disable all processing, but it still doesn't produce sound that matches the beautiful picture. It's really too bad that smallish sets like this don't offer better audio, because it kind of defeats the whole idea of the elegant package if you need to add amplifiers and speakers.

 "Worked for 60 seconds, No return policy, 6 weeks to repair." 2009-12-13
By Arizona Designer (Tucson, AZ)
I was looking for a smaller TV for desktop use. I know the LG brand is usually low quality, but the price was right. I purchased this TV, plugged it in, went through the setup menu, it worked for about 60 seconds, then the TV turned its self off.



After 3 calls to LG tech support, they recommended I return the TV for repair. I tried to return it to the amazon partner I purchased it from: Adorama Camera. They advised they don't take LG TVs back. What!? So a customer is sent a defective product, but they wont do an exchange! Mental note: never buy from Adorama.



I called LG: the return process is a pain and takes about 6 weeks.



Recommendation: save yourself the frustration of purchasing a product that was not quality tested, buy a Samsung or Sony brand.

Surprisingly good picture quality and light enough to easily install on a swivel wall mount system. Outstanding value for the price.

I like the picture quality and size of this tv. I am using it in a bookcase so the only change I would make is to have a flat bottom rather than a curve so it can sit directly on the shelf. As it is now, it must sit on its stand.

 "Some Illogic in Actual Application" 2009-11-28
By Dr. Debra Jan Bibel (Oakland, CA USA)
This smaller diameter set is often, as in my case, placed in a bedroom, where you would like the option to use headphones to as not to disturb your neighbors or mate. There is NO headphone jack. Samsung took it out also for this size unit, and Panasonic lacks even RCA audio jacks. With some Radio Shack fittings, I was able to rig up my headphones to the RCA audio jacks that are there for connection to a stereo receiver, but since this audio out lacks an amplifier, the headphone volume is fairly low. This complaint aside, the Sony 26 inch LCD set is very fine, easy to set up, with simple menus and remote buttons. I even was able to connect my backup recording VCR (via a separate antenna and converter box), knowing of course that the quality would be poor. My living room has as large Panasonic plasma HDTV and DVD recorder that uses DVD-ROM disks. Thus, for its particular purpose the Sony Bravia set is a good and probably dependable choice.

 "Looks and sounds really good to me...." 2009-11-27
By MayB (Chapel Hill, NC)
This is, without hesitation, the best TV I have ever had. Soooo easy to set up....it seemed to have set itself up. Picture is clear as anything, and I don't even have high definition yet!! Sound is good..don't find that there is any distortion nor muffling. The only possible drawbacks are with the "new" technology per se, which is common to ALL TV's: 1- Sound volume will vary from channel to channel, and sometimes even from program to commercial, so one has to constantly be prepared to adjust accordingly. This did not happen with my old set, as there was some way that sound could be regulated to be consistent, so there is no "improvement" on that score. and 2- Again, "new technology" is with the picture size variations one sometimes need to play with in order to achieve a comfortable viewing format. However, as I mentioned before, these changes have nothing to do with the actual Bravia TV, but with the technology employed.

All in all, an excellent choice if you are in the market for a new TV. Sony (Bravia) is the one!
