Best 120hz TV for the price

"Pros:Gaming, Music & Movies, computer Review This 1080p 120hz TV has it all. This was the first TV I've owned since I bought a 20" TV in 1998. Quite an improvement. PROS The "digital motion correction" and 120hz refresh makes standard tv and movies look like HD. I think that most people complain about watching standard tv and movies on a HD tv because they buy too big of a tv. Watching this 42" tv from 10 fee..." Read Full Review »

I got a good deal on top of the the lowered price, so I bought it (120Mhz at this price) 1. The picture quality sucked. There were white patches where light reflects from the face (temples, cheeks, bald heads) of persons. (check out the sample) 2. No way to control the white balance. Cannot see the "Rem..."

Disappointing

★★★☆☆
