Product brief
Description: The Westinghouse TX-52F480S is a 52-inch, LCD television.Compared to other LCD TVs on the market, it is relatively inexpensive at around $2,195.This TV is an LCD display, which is generally the best kind of flat-panel screen for viewing in brightly-lit rooms.
Pros: Has a 52-inch screen size.This is larger than the average TV on the market today, but is to be expected for a TV of this price.With built-in HDTV compatibility, this unit can display images that are significantly sharper and more realistic than regular television, as long as the source is high definition.(It can easily render standard-resolution digital TV broadcasts and also depict the full resolution of widescreen DVD video.)The 3:2 pulldown feature of this set reduces artifacts that can occur when motion pictures are transferred to a digital format such as DVD.
Cons: None noted, given available product data.
Suitability: Suited for a large room or a home theater.In general, a wide aspect display such as this one is ideal for DVD movies recorded in the popular 16:9 format, as well as high definition programming.
Value: In general, this TV's features are as expected for this price.However, LCD TVs having similar viewable size have an average cost of about $3,225.
Suggestions: (1) For assistance in shopping for a new HDTV, review CNET editors' Ultimate HDTV Buying Guide.(2) If donating or repurposing your old TV is not a viable option, CNET encourages households to recycle their electronics.Please explore the following website to find a recycling center in your area Electronics Take Back Coalition.
