Mitsubishi Mitsubishi LT-2240

Mitsubishi LT-2240 Review

by Sean Captain

- A brand-new successor to Mitsubishi's LT-2220, the LT-2240 has a swanky design and a dizzying array of options that mark it as a serious high-performance TV, but getting its screen to look right is a challenge. At default settings, the LT-2240 was by far the brightest of the TVs we reviewed--so bright that most color and detail were washed out. We had to make considerable adjustments to improve image quality for our DVD movie test--primarily turning down the contrast and the backlight intensity. While this helped, the LT-2240 still couldn't match some of the fine gradations of color (especially in skin tones) that rival models such as the Sony 21SG2 displayed.
