    "Expensive, but I believe its very much worth it."

    by Monkref on March 22, 2009

    Pros: The picture on the OLED was much clearer than the larger 50" Sony LED that cost a few $100.00 more than the 11" OLED TV. However, I could see tiny sea trash floating in the water near the fish on the OLED that I couldn't see on the larger 50" unit.

    Cons: Its a lot for such a small product! Its the first year and many times, that is when all the problems come out. I am hoping that this TV will be different. Will such a small but expensive item require EXTRA/Specific home owers/renters insurance?

    Summary: Its very compact. I would think it would be great for a condo or a small area in the home that doesn't have a lot of extra space to waste - NOT something you'd want to have in an area where children or pets will be able to reach. The screen pivots nicely, but as someone noted, it can't be removed from the base. The bottoms seems to work smoothly, but didn't notice if channels could be changed with remote. My Brother-law is a TV Dir. and is what I call a Tech-Head, meaning if I want to know about 'Good Electronics' I ask him! He showed it to me as I was asking about a 50inch Sony LED. He, as I, was blown away with the picture 1,000,000: 1, the 50" was only 30,000: 1. I have (2) 42"-Plasmas at home and a 50" would be nice, but not make that much of a difference. However, I think that next month right after I pay my TAXES...I am going to buy an OLED for me! Sorry for any 'sp' errors.

    Well it's the first OLED TV, so it's supposed to be expensive. When the first plasmas came out, they were around $14999, including installation.
