Reviews of the JVC LT-47X898
-
CNET Review
The Good: Accurate color temperature and linear grayscale; video processing deinterlaces 1080i sources properly; solid uniformity across the screen; compact, no-nonsense styling; connectivity includes three HDMI inputs.
The Bad: Inaccurate primary colors; middling black-level performance; 120Hz does not smooth motion in pans and camera movement; defaults back to non-native aspect-ratio mode when switching inputs or powering down; ineffective color management system; kludgy menus.
The Bottom Line: Although the JVC LT-47X898 has a few strong points, inaccurate color puts it a couple of steps behind the best 120Hz LCD TVs.
