Magnavox 26MD357B 26-Inch LCD HDTV with Built In DVD Player

I bought this TV based on the fact that I have always owned Magnavox TVs. I have had it about 6 months and have not been disappointed at all. If I had to pick one fault....one other reviewer pointed out, it takes a little long to get the picture after pushing the power button. But to me this is a minor detail. good picture, good sound and I got it at Best Buy for less than is listed here.

I can say that the speakers on the TV are just stock speakers so the sound is just good enough for the average person and is much like an average TV speaker system so If you want surround sound to it, just buy a coaxial cable and hook it up to a surround sound system that has a coaxial input to it. The DVD Player shows all movies very good and I can't really say if they are upscaled or anything, but all I know is they look pretty good, like a movie should look on any TV.

Note: - - - (About the Resolution) I have searched on the internet to find more about this TV and all the sites I have seen show this TV to have a Top resolution of 1080i resolution which is great, But for some reason my shows in 1080p resolution which is the highest you can go.

UPDATE - - I have been told that the TV is just picking up the 1080p signal, But that the TV is Downsourcing the signal to only 720p thus the info (1366 x 768p Hig Def resolution) Listed on the Product Description info part on the internet.

- - - Wow Amazon dropped the price of this TV, it was listed for $750 in early April 08 !!! Even Better & Free Shipping !!

Brought this set and had to return it 2 weeks later. The DVD player didn't reconize DVDs that we can play with other DVD players. For the 1 DVD it could play, it didn't eject it out. We called the service center and was told to unplug the set, leave it for a minute, then re-plug in so the TV/DVD would reset itself. We tired it a few times but it didn't work. We had to bring it to a service center. The technician had to open up the DVD player and took out the DVD for us. The picture quality was good if you look at it at eye level. If the TV is on a dresser, and kids watch it sitting on the floor the image is bad, ghost like, bad vertical viewing angle. We connected it to the cable and it did pick up all channels available. The tunner works fine. We returend the set instead of exchanging it because the DVD player didn't work and the picture quality is good but not exceptional.

Don't buy this TV if you want to mount in on the wall! Special "screw extensions" are required according to the owners manual, where they give an 800# to order them. I called to order them (40$) and the guy said "we don't have them in stock and I don't know when we can get them". So, unbelievable, right!?
You can't wall mount it without a 40$ kit that they can't get for you even if you want to buy it.
I'd pass if I were you.
Godd luck friends!

We have had this TV for three weeks. It's hooked up to an SD DirecTV signal. It does pretty well with an SD signal, but it tends to try to readjust the picture frequently, even during the same show. It's a little bizarre. They other issue we have is with he DVD player. It seems very slow to recognize any DVD. And then it's slow to forward through chapters and can tend to lock up if you try to forward through chapters too quickly. We bought this TV for under $500 at Best Buy, but even at that price it's going back.
