REVIEW UPDATED
New Rating: ****
My first set didn’t work as explained below. But, I will have to say that Amazon did a great job in refunding me. They make it very easy to return a faulty product and my credit card was reinbursed in a few weeks.
Round two:
I finally have a working set and I love it. This TV is made for the digital age. I use it with my computer, my XBox 360, I watch movies with it, and I could hook it up to cable if I wanted.
——————————–
I was so excited when I found this deal. This TV was exactly what I was looking for. I received it yesterday and it worked halfway through its first movie and hasn’t worked right since. It’s like it freezes or something. The picture stops and then slowly goes grey. When this happens I can’t even access the menu or adjust the volume. I have to just shut it off. If I let it “rest” for a few hours it will work for a few minutes and then go gray again.
I have to assume that my TV is a lemon, and if it worked I would give this item a much higher rating. I was very happy with the picture (while it was working), and set itself looks slick.

I bought this tv over a much cheaper, generic tv with the same specs thinking the brand would mean quality. Boy, was I wrong!
The first one I bought was great and I loved it, until the screen went black the next day. Sound was fine, but no picture! Great!
So, I brought it baack to Best Buy and they replaced it free of charge, great! Well, I take it home and plug it in and, lo and behold, double vision! Wow, I’ve always wanted to watch a tv with a double image with an offset of about 2 inches!
Well, I took it back again and compared other tvs, but I figured maybe I just got two lemons. I got a third one, because third times a charm, right?
Wow, this tv is great! The picture is clear and it is very solid! I have it for about 2 months and the picture flicks on then goes black and I just get sound. A $500 radio!
This time, I want to go straight to the head honcho. So, I call an outsourced Magnavox tech guy, run through a generic checklist, and when nothing works I am told there is nothing they can do about it!
Well, Im going to try and see if Best buy will take back my third model and once and for all buy that generic one that must be far better.
DONT BUY THIS TV
(By the way, I didnt buy this from amazon, I was just so furious so I thought I’d post here)

I purchased this TV on Black Friday in 2005, it was on sale for like $150 at the time at my local target and I was lucky enough to get the very last one the store had!!
This TV is great! The picture is crystal clear and it has all the inputs needed for Hi-Def (I don’t use), PC (don’t use that jack either) and plain old coax for basic cable (this is my choice!)
The sound on the TV is amazing comapred to my previous 13″ tube TV. The entire room is filled and it doesn’t sound like the sound is coming from the TV, it sounds like it is coming from the entire side of the room where the TV sits, it really is amazing.
My only complaint, the power button on the TV, you turn it off and you need to turn it back on from the TV, to get the remote to work you must turn it off via remote. Also, the remote itself is cheap, but I didn’t buy it for the remote. I bought it for the TV!!
I love it! It was hanging on my wall and it looked great, recently took it down to put it on a bookshelf.
