I bought this because I read Colbie thought it was her best work, or at least is the kind of music she loves. It comes through in the selections here.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My only complaint is that the processor speed is not as advertised. It's 2.8 gigahertz and not 3.5. I was after the 3.5.

This sounds like an updated 3 Doors Down trying to fit the current sound popular with many in a younger crowd, the disco-like electronica, with chant along choruses etc. But I owe it a few more closer listens. You can still hear 3 Doors Down in there.

My daughter loves this. It does a lot. Had to spend another $120 or so to get the right wiring harness and adapter for installation.

They seem fresh and long lasting. They are round and shiny. Good price for that many.

What's great about it: Lots of features
What's not so great: Wouldn't mind having the larger screen size that is coming out in the future.
Great phone. Price was right as relates to an upgrade. Wouldn't mind having the larger screen size that is coming out in the future. Great speed, nice camera. Haven't used the print scanner yet but sounds handy. Of course there are a zillion apps available. We are now in the future with a hand sized computer.

What's great about it: Goes together solid with three heavy pieces of glass
I use a 50" flat screen on top of it and it's plenty wide and strong for that.
Good fasteners for assembly. Put it together in about 25 minutes or so.
Good black finish. Be careful to not damage the metal or finish if you cut the box open with a knife.

What's great about it: Good picture quality and decent enough sound for casual viewing
I bought this TV for my parents to replace an old projection TV. I'm surprised to read some of the bad reviews. The picture is very sharp and clear and I have it adjusted to where the color is very good. Be sure your components are hooked up with HDMI cables and that you have reset the picture/display mode to get it off of the Store setting. I find it to be best in the Standard mode myself. Then I found it very easy to adjust to good picture and other settings.
The sound of course isn't as good as it is with a sound bar and subwoofer, but it's plenty good for the size room I put it in. My dad keeps the volume at 30 to compensate for his hearing and it sounds fine. If you use a sound bar, hook it up with a HDMI. Be sure to go through the sound settings and make some adjustments. It has the setting to keep the commercials from being louder too.
Of course it's nice and thin and the stand it comes with goes good on top of the bigger stand. Bought a black metal one from Best Buy for a little over a $100 and it looks like they came together.
So maybe some of you got a lemon and I didn't. If you have picture and sound issues as described you should have them give you a new one and try again, especially if you got ‘em for $499.
Check around for a 50" LED 1080P 120Hz HDTV and I believe you'll be hard-pressed to find a better value/price. I must have missed the $499 sale but it's still discounted now as I bought it.
This product has... Easy to set up, Great value and features for the price, Easy to use remote control

Images for this Review
(click to see full-size image)
What's great about it: Can't beat the price, holds nearly 500 songs, the voice over feature is excellent
What's not so great: Uses a 3/8 jack for charging. Need an adaptor to connect to most docking stations.
This a very handy portable music device and you can't beat it for $49. 2 GB is plenty for decent periods of time. The voice over feature is excellent and allows you to find out the name of the song and artist without having to look at the device. Sound and volume are good. You'll need a $15 adaptor (online) to dock to other devices such as my Harmon Kardon Play 'N Go. If you enjoy quality sound buy a good pair of in-ear earphones.

What is the smallest Smart tv?
I think 24".
You could use a smart DVD player with a dumb TV and get the same features.
