    Love the look and compact size. A bit hard to figure out how to use. Was able to download other CDs. Hard to understand how to get application to run or play, such as do pictures. I'm sure it's just me. Need more time and maybe some help with it. Have not done any music yet. Couldn't figure out how to duplicate a movie either.

    The picture is so much clearer than our tube tv and even clearer that than the 40 " tv which are led. I do wish the sound was better. To hear it across the room you must have the volume on 60. Guess I will be back to buy a sound bar or a sound surround system. I really love the new television though. The service at best buy was good and the time the television to get to the store was earlier than they had said. If you want a good tv get the 4k.

    I have a notebook that I wanted to download some extra programs on, and this item did the job. It took a little time to install the installation disc, but worth the time. Now I just hook up the USB cable and use whatever disc I please. You can also use it to add music and download to an MP3 player.
