Pros: * Extremely large: 55 Inches* Bright: 450 nit* Standard Inputs, including HDCP-compliant HDMI. Standard power cable: C13-C14 10-15A* Low power footprint from LED backlight: 135w peak* Respectable contrast and gamma out of the box, easily optimized.* Overscan can be completely disabled, independently of the aspect ratio setting (Menu, video, advanced, Overscan: Off)* Superb price for the performance. This is probably the single biggest benefit. You can't get a set this big at this price from anyone else.* Will take a 4:4:4 RGB signal without incident (may not disable it as 4:4:4, haven't checked yet)* Works great with HTPCs, at least ones with AMD GPUs. No HDCP handshake issues, resolution detection issues, or other common Display-Chain issues.* Relatively low latency for having 120Hz smoothing. I estimate about 30-40ms.* Default sharpness value is zero, no sharpening occurs. Can be negative (if you wanted to blur the display I suppose)* Thin!Cons: * 120 Hz smoothing cannot be disabled (maybe a hidden menu, but the standard UI doesn't have an option for it).* Backlight cannot be controlled. (NOTE:"Brightness" adjusts the white point, not the backlight). This means it will always run at FULL; much brighter than needed in an intimate setting.* No user-upgradable firmware. USB-port is for technicians only.* OSD/GUI is minimal, missing many higher-end calibration options. NO CONFIG FOR: Gamma, Backlight, RGB-Gains, CMY-Tints* 120 Hz panel cannot be supplied a 120 Hz signal because the input board doesn't support higher than 60 Hz (Extremely common, not a complaint but an industry criticism)* DOES NOT SUPPORT 24 Hz INPUT. Only option for 24 Hz content is to do a Reverse-3:2 pulldown, then double to 120 Hz.* Very thick bezel, more than an inch.* Flashlighting in corners, not perfectly even (common problem for edge-lit models) but no worse than the competitionOther Thoughts: I normally prefer big-name manufacturers for displays, but I thought I would take a gamble and give Coby a try. I'm glad I did! The LEDTV5536 is a great value. It works great with my stereo and my HTPC. No dead pixels, no physical damage.I've watched several of my favorite films on the LEDTV5536 now. If you are a film purist, this isn't the unit for you. The Reverse-3:2 followed by smoothing to 120Hz causes subtle artifacts on long straight lines (e.g. windows borders on cityscapes, telephone lines, automobile intake grilles.) or during some shots of fast motion.On a positive note, the 120 Hz smoothing produces some of the most lifelike motion I've ever seen from 24 Hz film content. I watched Kubrick's "Eyes Wide Shut", and the many closeups during conversation looked almost real.

THIS TV WAS HORRIBLE. THR SERVICE COMPANY WAS HORRIBLE. IT TOOK 3 WEEKS GETTING THE TV AND WE HAD IT FOR A WEEK. VERY BAD PICTURE QUALITY. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO GET THIS TV.

The Coby LED 5536 is a good value. The sound is not great - most buyers would probably install their own surround system anyway. The picture is great. When the screen goes dark, you can see some white areas I presume are caused by the LED lights. When the screen is bright with activity the picture is great so it does not hinder the viewing experience a great deal. I higher end TV may be able to go completely "black" but for the price this TV is a great value. Thin, light, great picture and energy efficient.
