Westinghouse CW40T8GW 1080p 60hz LCD HDTV

FEATURES:

• 1080p High definition display
• 3 HDMI inputs
• 6,000:1 contrast ratio
• Wide horizontal and vertical angles
• Wall mountable
• Parental Control
• Sleep timer
• Built-in digital tuner

REMOTE: RMT-21

RATING: 4 out of 5 stars

Welcome to a review of the Westinghouse CW40T8GW LCD HDTV. This model is sleek and stylish, with a wide screen to give you that home theater feeling, but compact enough to fit in almost any room of the house. Set-up is a snap and the TV is so lightweight that just about anyone can mount it. The menu is easy to use and offers many display options so that you can customize it with your preferences. With its 178 degree wide vertical, and horizontal angles, anyone can watch from anywhere in the room. It delivers bright, vibrant colors and clean, crisp images. Although this model has a 60hz, as opposed to a refresh rate of 120hz, not many people can discern the difference between 60hz and 120hz. The picture quality is still excellent, especially for the low price. With the parental control feature, parents can rest easy knowing that they can select the types of movies and shows that their children can view. The 3 HDMI inputs is more than adequate for most users needs. This TV is simplistic with its offerings, but it is easy to use, delivers a high quality picture and is quite a bargain for the low price tag.

The remote that accompanies this model is RMT-21. It is a standard model which is easy to navigate. At times however, the signal from the remote to the TV appears to be weak thereby forcing the viewer to very carefully get closer to the TV and point in the correct direction.

The 2 speakers for this model are found in the rear and are 6 watts. Many flat, lightweight TVs have been known to have poor quality speakers and this model is no exception. There are those who are satisfied with the sound quality this model produces. However, the majority of people who purchase this model are disappointed with the “sounds like everything is in a tin cup” sound. The solution appears to be attaching any sound system or high quality speakers into one of the HDMI ports. Once this is done, the sound quality greatly improves and customers can enjoy the sound and a crystal clear picture knowing that they paid a bargain price.

PROS:
• Excellent picture quality with clean, crisp images
• Adequate number of HDMI ports
• Low price
• Easy to set-up

CONS:
• Average sound quality
• Weak signal from remote control
• No internet connectivity

Westinghouse T6DW Series LCD HDTV

FEATURES:

• 1080p High resolution definition
• Wide vertical and horizontal viewing angles
• 3 HDMI inputs
• 3D noise reduction
• Energy Efficient
• Wall mountable
• Built-in digital tuner
• Sleep timer and parental control

REMOTE: RMT-15

RATING: 4.1 out of 5 stars

Welcome to a review of the Westinghouse T6DW Series. This series is a great value and offers many features for the price. Set-up is easy, with its simple menu. Mounting on the wall is trouble-free due to the TV’s light weight. The 3 HDMI ports let you watch movies, play games and connect your computer for high resolution images and easy viewing with the large screen. A couple of convenient features are the sleep timer and parental control, which no parent should be without. This series does have a few drawbacks. The HDMI inputs are located in the rear of the TV making it difficult to attach your cables, especially when the TV is mounted to the wall. In order for the digital tuner to function, some codes need to be activated which requires a phone call. For most this is not an issue, but some consumers find this requirement very annoying. However, considering the vibrant colors and crisp, clear picture this series delivers, it is worth it.

The remote control used for this series is the RMT-15. It is very easy to use however it has been noted that the signal is weak, therefore you must be close to the TV and aim properly for the remote to connect to the TV.

The biggest drawback of this series and many slim, flat screen TVs is the sound quality. The speakers on this series are located at the rear of the TV and are very weak. The sound quality is very poor. However, to compensate for the speakers and achieve great sound quality, any sound system can be attached to the TV. Once you have your desired sound system attached, you can experience all the great features this series has to offer.

PROS:
• Excellent value
• Crisp, Clear picture
• Ample amount of HDMI inputs
• PC connectivity

CONS:
• Weak sound quality
• No internet connectivity
• Digital tuner requires activation
