Ang mura naman nito. Lugi na ako kaagad sa nabili ko last week. Hehe

Funky_Monkey · « **Reply #7 on:** Nov 22, 2007 at 01:37 PM »

sir which pcx ito? i saw their pricelist 41550 nakasulat

HouseBum · « **Reply #8 on:** Nov 22, 2007 at 03:47 PM »

41550 pag card, 39950 po pag cash

I tried calling the distro but it's much more expensive if you buy directly. The N3760W (us version/older version???) has very favorable user reviews on US shopping site Newegg.

Do you guys think this is a better option than a Samsung LA32R81B because of the better screen real estate?

Funky_Monkey · « **Reply #9 on:** Nov 22, 2007 at 06:51 PM »

depends siguro on your use. if you use a lot of higher quality sources(HD, PC, bluray) i think that it will not be great. but if tv viewing mostly, i guess ok lang.

why shouldn't it be great on HD quality sources?

I noticed that AOC and Viewsonic had washed out colors before compared to Samsung, etc. Not sure if its still the same.

Saan ba available ito? Meron kayang 12 months 0% promo?

HouseBum · « **Reply #13 on:** Nov 23, 2007 at 11:38 AM »

I believe they have 0% for purchases above 3k for selected cc's from: AIG, HSBC, STANDARD CHARTERED BANK and Equitable

IceTea · « **Reply #14 on:** Nov 23, 2007 at 12:32 PM »

AFAIK, if it's PC Express, 0% is good for 3 mos only, and they have different price for card and cash.

guy here's the pic of this unit

what do you think guys, ok kaya?

plano ko din bumili by X'mas ng lcd tv for our family. i know viewsonic is a good maker of PC monitors in the PC world

xxadonisxx · « **Reply #16 on:** Nov 25, 2007 at 08:35 AM »

before buying be sure to ask first about their warranty on dead pixels because other brands only warraty a unit if it has 7 or more dead pixels, be sure to get the brand with a zero dead pixel warranty

Been using the Viewsonic N4262W model (42"; 1080p capable) for nearly 3 weeks already and I'm happy with it.

post mo naman for those interested, how much you got it and from where, pati na rin warranty details.

papelandia · « **Reply #20 on:** Nov 26, 2007 at 12:57 PM »

sIR,

hOW MUCH BUY MO SA SIZE 42"

Funky_Monkey · « **Reply #21 on:** Nov 28, 2007 at 04:22 PM »

called up their sales number. all stocks are in their main warehouse near pcx gilmore so if you want to buy in another brach, you have to go to the branch and place a 30% deposit. after a 2-3 days stock will arrive.

As requested by readers...

Pasensya na still busy with work still can't find the time to clean-up/re-arrange the room. I'm not good with cameras as well...

1. Current setup via hmdi... DVD->AVR->LCD

1080p capable... very nice with gladiator r1 and other disc... parang hd na but of course mas awesome ang hd

Crouching Tiger superbit... mirror-like scene (or ghosting? not!!!)...

2. Peformance with HD player... seen it work on demo at 1080p... very nice... and hopefully this weekend I can test it personally when a friend will lend me a ps3 for HD testing. There is only one hdmi input but i have an hdmi avr so ok lang...

3. Performance with PC... haven't personally tried siguro next month pag nag-upgrade ako ng PC with HDMI but seen it work on demo via D-sub(VGA) input, ok naman. VGA res should be 1366x786 and hopefully when I test it using hdmi 1920x1080p (hehe).

4. TV performance... what can you expect from analog cable signal on a 42" screen? anyway modular ito... i was suppose to purchase it w/o tuner (flyboard inserted at the rear) kasi for ht use naman... kaso kinabit na ng tech nila so nevermind. Possible upgrade to hd digital tuner in the future since modular.

5. Internal upscaler - dunno since i use the ext. dvd upscaler. Pero if i set the player on the lowest setting... pangit syempre sa lcd pero there seems to be no auto-upscaler sa tv or option to do so... Not sure about this

6. Manuals - couple of booklets... mostly in chinese, but one is in english... (you can d/l it here, compressed file with 3 pdf.. one is in english... http://www.viewsonic.com/support/userguides.cfm?event=getUserGuides&serialNumber=n4262w)

7. Remote - modified chinese version (some printed surfaces covered by stickers w/ english-characters)

8. Ease of Use - i consider it idiot-proof naman

I got this around 3-4 weeks ago. The disty is my friend for over a decade already and we have been recently doing business together for a year na (IT-related)... so presyo-kaibangan.

If brand conscious ka... fyi viewsonic is a very reputable brand in the IT market. Not oddly enough, the viewsonic n4262p is similarly to this philips tv as shown in the cardboard that came with my philips dvd player... very likely they are both OEMed by TVM (i follow IT industry news btw)

In my honest opinion, even at the quoted gilmore price of 60++ pesos its a steal... this is easily the cheapest 42" 1080p TV in the local market and considering the PROs & CONs I'll still get an LCD over a plasma maski mas mahal or at the same price range. Generally mas mahal ang LCD sa plasma btw.

Bottom-line is kanyang-kanya satisfaction yan and its still your decision so pa-demo nyo maigi before deciding at wag nyo ako sisihin po! But me and my parents (who use it more that I do since busy ako lately) are very happy with the viewsonic n4262w.

Cheers... Sonny

If by some unfortunate incident the unit breaks after warranty, can the distributor repair it?

And if the unit fails during warranty, since Viewsonic is a PC company, does it mean it will be RMA'd?

pekspert · « **Reply #25 on:** Dec 12, 2007 at 07:59 PM »

too much for that price, just learned from pc express that the price was a mistake and it should be P51k....may nakabili ba sa P39,950? I was quite surprised since pc express has more expensive prices than the smaller stores in virra mall and when i asked sa virra mall, nasa P49k na yung 37".

That viesonic is now not a good buy at P50k since you can get a sharp or a toshiba at that same price.

Huddaf · « **Reply #26 on:** Dec 12, 2007 at 09:11 PM »

Plus the never ending question of how good the warranty of this product is. Something I am careful of when spending my ever hard earned moolah!

The 51k seems right since when I called Innovista they quoted me 37500k for the 32" model and 48800 for the 37. I found it odd that the dealer price was more than what PCX quoted. The unit isn't listed anymore in their cash pricelist but still appears in their regular pricelist at 41150

There should only be ONE price, whether its card or cash price. What they're doing is in violation of the Tag Price Law.

What the merchant should do is display the higher price, and state the lower price if the consumer insists on a discount if he/she is paying in cash.

HouseBum · « **Reply #29 on:** Dec 14, 2007 at 03:12 PM »

They're giving out a 3% cash discount promo which was approved by the DTI. It's a common practice nowadays to give out cash discounts instead of credit card surcharges which has been outlawed.
