I bought this tv recently and in the store everything seemed normal. When I got my unit, the first thing I noticed was even if you move one foot side ways from the center, the picture became bleached and pale. Watching it even from 3 or 4 feet off center was impossible.
Secondly the sound was horrible even at low volume. Like some one was banging a hollow tin can.
Thirdly the brightness at its highest setting makes viewing content during day time impossible. You have to cover the windows and switch off lights to watch TV.
lastly the TV surface reflects light. so if there is alight source or a window opposite to the TV you cannot watch content.
I complained, they came saw and said that how this model was!
Do not buy this tv even if they gave it to you free!
