Price Paid:
$2400.00
from Circuit City Summary:
The Hitachi 53uwx10b rptv surpassed my expectations. It is a great rptv but it is fragile. If it is not calibrated just right it can look terrible. I enjoy watching HDTV sports & movies. I'm very pleased but glad I know how to do calibrations on it to keep up the great looking picture. Strengths:
Color, blacks look black, good resoution. Weaknesses:
Needs to be re-calibrated often; convergence drifts. Similar Products Used:
RCA digital TV

Review 2 of 24
Price Paid:
$2500.00
from video store Summary:
I bought the Hitachi 53UWX10B after viewing the picture quality. I had viewed sony and Mitsubishi but the picture did not seem all that great even though they were playing a movie on DVD. The Hitachi has a better screen and brighter picture which for me are better quality when viewing DVD movies. Before buying Hitachi I compared the Hitachi HDTV to a regular progection TV with analog cable and the HDTV provided a better detail Some features on the TV dont do much I usually use wide smooth which works good with DVD computer and playstation. Strengths:
Good quality picture for the picture. Magic focus is great better and faster than the manual focus on regular HDTV's. Great picture on DVD's when using good quality component cables, pricy. Excellent for watching DVD movies, picture is so clear I can see the weak points in the cameras while filming. Weaknesses:
Some features don't do much. Good care is needed for the screen to get the best possible picture, so don't use water or window cleaner. I use a special HDTV screen cleaner with a static rag to clean the scrren and this just improves the clearity of the screen. Similar Products Used:
Magnavox and Sony TV's.

Review 3 of 24
Price Paid:
$1600.00
from SEARS Summary:
I bought the Hitachi 53UWX10B because i've been wanting a big screen tv for some time. I especially liked the fact that it is hdtv compatible. However, I thought that the advances in technology would give this digital projection tv an advantage over older analog projection tv's. My mom's 4 year old hitachi projection tv has a better picture. On the 53UWX10B, when I watch a dvd movie, horizontal edges on objects looked blurred and have like a rainbow effect. The eyes of people don't look defined. In general, fine detail on images look blurred. I'm considering taking this 53UWX10B model back to sears because I am not satisfied. It also takes a good 2 seconds to tune in on the next channel, ditto for picture in picture viewing. My 6 year old magnavox tube has much better resolution. Strengths:
the price, the price, the price! But, is it really worth the price? Weaknesses:
Resolution. I expected better. Similar Products Used:
analog hitachi projection tv and my 6 yr. old magnavox tube.

Review 5 of 24
Price Paid:
$2000.00
from Future shop Summary:
HITACHI 53UWX10B IS THE BIGGEST PIECE OF CRAP. ONCE I GOT THIS UNIT HOME AND TURNED IT ON, THE BOTTOM THIRD OF THE SCREEN HAD A RAINBOW SUPERIMPOSED. ALSO, ALL THE TEXT FOR THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE SCREEN WAS DOUBLED OVER. I FELT LIKE I WON THE LOTTERY WHEN I WAS ABLE TO RETURN IT FOR A FULL REFUND THE FOLLOWING MONDAY. I JUST PURCHASED THE 42-Inch TheaterWide® HD HDTV-Ready Television 42H82, IT IS 98389348484489448 TIMES BETTER. Strengths:
ONLY STRENGTH IS THE PEOPLE AT THE STORE REALIZED WHAT A PIECE OF CRAP IT IS AND GAVE ME NO HASSLE RETURNING IT FOR A FULL REFUND, AND IT WAS A CLEARANCE MARKED DOWN FLOOR MODEL! Weaknesses:
IT'S CREATION Similar Products Used:
SONY 32, TOSHIBA 2 YEAR OLD 42" HDTV WIDESCREEN, AND THANKFULLY NOW 42-Inch TheaterWide® HD HDTV-Ready Television 42H82
