Using the same technology that made them well-known for producing top notch computer monitors, ViewSonic has made a name for itself in the television market as well. The ViewSonic N3760w proves to be a nice start in what could be a bright future.

Using the same technology that made them well-known for producing top notch computer monitors, ViewSonic has made a name for itself in the television market as well. The ViewSonic N3760w proves to be a nice start in what could be a bright future.

With great color reproduction, the unit showed true to life representation in a wide color pallet including the, sometimes troublesome, flesh tones. The unit is easy to set up and provides a fair amount of options and features, including S-video inputs, and VGA, HDMI and RF video connections. The remote control operates well from a considerable distance, however it is disappointingly not backlit, making it difficult to operate in a dimly lit setting.

The ViewSonic boasts a very nice picture quality, however, the audio portion of the system left something to be desired. With muddied sounds and difficulty hearing conversation it scenes with a great deal of additional audio content, the speakers deliver a feeble and less than pleasing sound quality.

The color diffusion was vivid with excellent, true-to-life clarity offering the viewer a feast for the eyes. The unit also did exceptionally well in a brightly lit room. In addition, there is limited screen distortion in scenes with high action and it did not have the smudging effect that is all too common in wide screen televisions.

A great first attempt by ViewSonic, the N3760w is a good buy at an affordable $2,000.

    We bought this TV at Costco. The remote won't work right away when you turn on the TV, so you are stuck watching whatever channel and whatever volume for a few minutes until the TV and remote decide to communicate with each other. But sometimes it does work right away, and sometimes not at all, you just never know. Sometimes you can't get volume at all, even though it is showing the sound is supposed to be turned way up. Another day, there was no picture just a grey... Read more

    I bought this TV in early september of 2007, and it was good at first. The quality wasn't quite as good as the floor model in the store (like everything else in life). The remote doesn't work for up to 3 minutes everytime you turn it on. Just ... this week, the TV completely quit working. Seems like quite a conicidence that it burns out just DAYS after the 1 year warranty expires. Save your money... DO NOT BUY THIS TV Read more Less Read more

    I have used Viewsonic products for my PC and based my purchasing decision partially on their reputation, and I have not been let down yet. I purchased this TV in 06 and have not had any problems or noticed any major character flaws. I have not experimented much with its full HD potential other than for gaming but I have been truly satisfied with my purchase. Read more
