you see increased detail and greater depth of images.
HDTV Tuner: The TV has
built-in over-the-air HDTV (ATSC) and Digital Cable (QAM) tuners, so you don't
need a separate set-top box to receive and decode over-the-air HDTV/SDTV
or unencrypted Digital Cable signals.

fill the screen, but not taller, none of the picture is
hidden.

lost during the normal over-scanning that occurs on traditional sets. It
also avoids unnecessary scaling of HD signals that can reduce overall image
resolution and picture quality.

signals only. Depending on the input signal format, the picture appears with
sidebars and/or bars at the top and bottom.
