OK, so I have been looking for a decent new 20" tv for a while now and I stumbled across the Sharp LC20AD5E. i was wondering if anybody knew if this tv was any good at all? i have been looking for a while now and it seems pretty good. i basically want to get the best spec 20" i can get with freeview for my money. most importantly it has to look great when playing my ps3.

what i wanted:
- 20" tv
- digital tuner included
- hdmi input for my ps3
- around £200-£280

i have also been looking at the samsung pebble range (20" no freeview), and a couple of sonys from the bravia range (the kdl-20s4000 and the kdl-20s2030) but i think these are a little out of my price range.

thanks for the help. does anybody have this by the way?

I've just ordered the LC20AD5E. Should get it by the end of the week.

I'll be using it for freeview and Xbox360, initially through component, but I'll get an HDMI cable to compare.


I also looked at the Sony and Samsung, and a few other cheapies.

The Sony, although nice, was just a bit on the expensive side.

I chose the Sharp over the Samsung:

- It's a TV, rather than a monitor that doubles as a TV
- Freeview built in, saves having another box
- 16:9 format
- Better black levels
- Better viewing angles
- Nicer design (in my opinion)
