2007 Large-Screen HDTV Ratings

To help consumers make the right choice with regard to their large-screen HDTV purchase, the J.D. Power and Associates 2007 Large Screen HDTV Usage and Satisfaction Study^SM gathers consumer responses about various makes and model series across three market segments: HDTV 37-inch to 49-inch; HDTV 50-inch to 65-inch; and Rear Projection (50-inch to 72-inch). In the survey, consumers who purchased or received a 37- to 65-inch HDTV, or a 50- to 72-inch rear-projection TV, were asked to rate their TV’s picture and sound performance, appearance and styling, operation and features. Consumers were also asked about how, why and what they purchased, their shopping and research experience, and about brand loyalty, among other considerations. Consumers say the factors that contribute the most to their HDTV satisfaction are: picture and sound performance, ease of operation, features, and appearance and styling.
