What You Should Know about the M50WH185

Good Fit For An Entertainment Room

HDTVs with a diagonal screen size between 50 and 54 inches, such as this model, are LCDs, plasmas, or DLPs, usually with a resolution of either 1366 by 768 or 1920 by 1080 (1080p). The optimum viewing distance for HDTV screens like these is generally considered to be about 8 to 9 feet, making this model appropriate for large rooms such as a spacious den or living room, an entertainment room, or a great room.

Duration of ownership: 1 Year

Strengths: It was Wide good picture.

Weaknesses: After a few months, it started makeing a buzzing noise. Then after 14 months the tv's color engine gave out. When sent for repairs, RCA informed us that you can not buy just one part, you have to order the entire inside of the tv. part costs almost 1000.00 just for the stupid part!!!

Overall Evaluation: I am not happy. I also have a friend whos mother had the same tv and the same problem. For the price I would expect the tv to last longer. I do not recommend this tv or this brand. RCA SUCKS!!
