Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Multiple inputs
Weaknesses: Small screen size, weak speakers, limited viewing angles
Overall Evaluation: I was looking for a budget tv for under $250 and this fit the bill. Despite the small screen size, the TV comes with all the various inputs including HDMI. The picture quality was pretty good considering the screen size. The viewing angles for the screen do seem to be limited to looking directly at it since you cannot tilt the screen. The speakers are kinda weak but that seems typical for small tvs/monitors.

Strengths: Great size for smaller areas - we are using for kitchen area. Speakers work well, easy to figure out the basics, picture quality very nice.
Weaknesses: If it had DVD player that would be a plus, but other than that which is minor I have nothing to note.
Overall Evaluation: We have used a ViewSonic 22" Monitor which is great, so seeing this brand I felt good about purchasing. Really like the size, easy to move around. Hope the LCD stays crystal clear. Have not hooked up HD box, so picture might even be better.
What You Should Know about the N1630w 15.6" LCD TV (Widescreen, 1366x768, 1,000:1, HDTV)
Popular Resolution For Moderately Priced TVs
All modern HDTVs are fixed-pixel displays. The number of pixels a display has determines its maximum resolution and thus the fineness of detail it can reproduce. Resolution is normally expressed as pixel width versus pixel height. This television's resolution is 1366 by 768, meaning it has 1366 pixel columns by 768 pixel rows. This resolution is popular for moderately priced plasma and LCD televisions. A key characteristic of all fixed-pixel displays is that incoming signals not at the set's native resolution must be scaled to match that resolution. The quality of this mathematical upconversion or downconversion can significantly affect the picture, especially for ordinary standard-definition TV signals. Inferior scaling may soften the picture, exaggerate noise, or cause some edges to appear slightly jagged.
