Digital camera reviews of Sharp Aquos LC20S7U 20" LCD TV

Digital camera Review: Maybe it's just me
Summary: 3 Stars

Is this a good LCD TV? Quite possibly, if "good LCD TV" isn't an oxymoron. There's the motion blur, which was even worse than I expected, and pixelization that's visible at all times but worse when there's motion, a little insult to add to your injury. Color and clarity on still images is very good, as I'd expect of a high quality LCD display. But I spent far less on my LCD computer monitor, and it has significantly better color and clarity (admittedly at much higher resolution) than this set.

Sound can only be described as miserable. Maybe we shouldn't expect much of a small, thin, flat panel, but providing bass and treble controls on this unit seems as silly as outfitting a moped with a nitrous injector.

A 20" set seems most likely intended for use in places like the bedroom, where viewers are likely to be fairly close to the screen, and where it's unlikely the set can be hooked up to a sound system. Since it doesn't provide good close-up viewing, and since the sound quality is so poor, I'm not sure this set has any really good applications. I ended up keeping the 20" analog Philips I already had setup in my bedroom and used the new Sharp to replace a 13" monophonic Sanyo in my daughter's room. Although the sound quality's worse, at least she has both channels now.

If you're looking for a way to prepare your less demanding viewing areas for DTV, this isn't the way to do it. Go to your local discount retailer and pick up an analog 20" set (while you still can) and plug it into whatever set-top box you happen to have at your disposal. That'll provide very watchable TV for years to come, and save you about $200 over the price of this set.

Summary of Sharp Aquos LC20S7U 20" LCD TV

This 20-inch SDTV runs ahead of the pack. Its crystal clear LCD display and impressive picture make this thoroughbred the ultimate in versatility, style and performance. Sharp's proprietary Advanced Super View/Black TFT LCD panel delivers winning qualities in a smaller TV: high contrast ratio, low-reflection glare reduction and wide viewing angles. Featuring a distinctive bottom-speaking design, the LC-20S7U - which can sit on a stand or be mounted on a wall - has multiple inputs and outputs for additional flexibility.
