CUSTOMER REVIEWS OF THE  TCL 40" L40FHDF12TA 1080p 60 Hz LCD HDTV

4 out of 5

Great Buy
By Mukul

Amazing for the price. 40 Inch 1080p LCD for $320??
The one thing that isn't top-notch is the refresh rate(it's 60Hz as opposed to 120). There seems to be some micro-lag where it feels like the video is playing the slightest bit after the sound. Hard to pin down and you don't even notice it after the first day or so.
For gamers: Don't worry, I play my the xbox 360 on this screen an the micro-lag I mentioned apparently doesn't affect gameplay response vs. video response time.
Lastly, the tv does take a while to power up fully, not instant or even close. Takes over 15 seconds just to "boot". Not a big deal if you're a patient person but could drive some people crazy.
The TV is a steal though. I was being very persnickety noting minor flaws in this review(except for the boot time) but I still would highly recommend getting this if you're trying to get high quality entertainment within a tight budget.
Side note: The digital sound output is coaxial, not TOSLINK.

Great TV!
By SameOldStory

I bought this for a valentine's day's gift & my wife loves it.
The screen is clear & sharp. The color is great. Sound is better than the large tube TV that we just got rid of.
If anyone has a problem with the sound then just add a separate sound system, this HDTV is large enough to justify it.
As some mentioned there is a *faint* light bleed thru in the upper left corner.
This can ONLY be noticed when the top part of the screen is very dark or black.
But YOU HAVE TO LOOK FOR IT. Strangely enough I don't recall many movie producers that pack a lot of action up in the corners.
No stuck pixels.
The remote IS a little touchy. Button presses have to be quick. Hit a 4 and if it isn't fast you get 44. But you're probably going to use the cable remote most of the time anyway, right?
Other than that very minor problem, I have NO complaints.
This is a nice HDTV at a very low cost. If you want *a little* more in the way of features go ahead and spend $200-$300 more for another TV. But my wife loves it, and I'm more than happy with it.
DEFINITELY A GOOD BUY!

Great TV

By zayex

Awesome product! no complaints at all, buy one. Dimensions are 24.5 by 38.5 inches, great picture. I might buy another one. The Superbowl looked amazing. I think if I paid 600 bucks for it I would give it 5 stars, plus the fact that it was half that.. so I'm going to step out and give it 6 stars...I heard some people had some power-down problems, but the one I got doesn't do that...Buy one!
Remote codes are 503, 641, and 651.
503 worked with my Dish Network remote.

Deal and a Half

By Tim Brown

This is a quality tv for the price. Minimal assembly, and it looks great. Got this to hook up to my mac book pro and it is crisp and clean with a bit of changes to the display settings.

Amazed

By sheikh

Ordered it from Amazon for about $330, got here the second day. Set it up in my room, the picture quality is amazing and the sound is very acceptable. Definitely worth the money, although it does tend to get dirty but that's not an issue. Overall, beautiful product very pleased, and the two-year warranty makes it even better.
