Mitsubishi LT-46244 LCD HDTV Review

This Mitsubishi LCD HDTV can pass when talking about TV qualities but its very high price is not that reasonable. Mitsubishi LT-46244 holds a number of average qualities that deserve a discounted price but at $2500 is somewhat expensive.

For our judges' verdict this television's image quality deserves a good review since it ranked in fourth place among 46-47 inch HDTV sets which have been tested, and it got a 3.6 point difference from the outstanding score of the Samsung LN46A550. The price of this TV is really a consideration though since two Samsung television sets can be bought for a similar price.

But the flaws are visible when it comes to color - it produces low quality images but it is still better than LG 47LBX Opus. The wavy or unstable pattern as seen in Vatican Wall of the movie Mission Impossible 3 appeared too bluish. This was described by the judges as excess brightness and blurriness.

It gets a good review when it comes to the appearance of the onscreen menu with its added icons. But it is still flawed. For instance, when you adjust the video setting, the menu disappears instantly so it takes a long time to change something on the menu again.

The LT-46244 can be rotated which is a convenient feature as you can get to the back of the TV without too much effort. This is handy especially when you are accessing the television's inputs which are difficult to run and use. Another nice feature it has is a USB port for picture slide presentation, and a power-saving option.

Also, the LT-46244's integrated speakers are dreadful. Simple sound coming from it was unclear. For such an expensive HDTV, it should perform better than that.

But it does coem with good documentation. It provides a fast set-up manual where you can start learning from simple setups to more complicated ones which are all explained in plain and clear English.

One excellent feature of the Mitsubishi LT-46244 is XVColor, a recent technology that allows your new TV to show a lot more color than an old analog could ever hope to present. This feature will make the most of your high definition.

The Tru1080p is another great feature that works to make sure that your signal is showing the highest and best definition that it can at all times. As you are watching TV, the signal from the broadcasting network will flow through your lines without the need for conversions that can slow and freeze your image.

The one unique feature of the Mitsubishi LT-46244 is the color schemes and options. There is a wide variety of ways that you can adjust the images on screen to make sure that every object is colored to your own unique tastes.

A color 4D video option reduces noise to prevent fuzzy pictures and lines. An advanced filter will leave the screen crystal clear, while the Perfect Color option will allow you to adjust multiple colors individually. The full colors can each be adjusted to create unique image and color blends that are perfect for each consumer.

This LT-46244 would be sold reasonably at $1600 but with its original $2500, it's just too much for a gadget that is less than perfect.
