The one I ordered ended up being out of stock, but I managed to find one elsewhere (not here) for much cheaper! (Spent $300 and got one secondhand with 2 pairs of glasses and tons of extra games and tech thrown in!) Anyways, on to my lengthy review!

The screen is a pretty good size. It fits perfectly on my dresser beside my PS3 and it's pretty stylish. No remote, but any universal one could probably be programmed to work with it. You can set the 3D to on, off, or auto, and the TV turns off automatically when it detects no input signal. It uses active 3D, so it won't work with those cheap 3D glasses from the movies. The glasses are shutter glasses, so they can be pricey to buy separately (I believe the 3D display normally comes with only one pair), and the screen looks a bit dimmer while they're on. The main issue I have with the glasses is that they are rather bulky and fit awkwardly over my normal glasses. They're also kind of heavy and they leave a mark on my nose after only wearing them for five minutes. I've put some cotton in the way so it doesn't dent my face. I don't understand why there's a power button on these glasses since it doesn't seem to actually do anything. I end up having to flip the battery switch off and on to make them work. They are rechargeable, but you can't use them while they're charging. Now, I'm somebody who notices the flicker of a 60 Hz TV frame rate, so I'm very happy that the display runs at 240 Hz since the shutter glasses basically cut that frame rate in half (because of how active 3D works). I can happily play without the flicker in 3D! There is some cross-talk from the 3D, but that mostly goes away if you set the brightness to maximum. Speaking of which, the 3D games feel a bit limited. In most cases, the 3D ends up feeling so subtle that you barely notice it or you forget it's there. Nothing really pops out at you. The closest objects are usually as close as the screen while the rest of it sits a short distance behind. It's kind of like a big Nintendo 3DS screen, but with ugly glasses and less pop! There is one game that stands out so far in 3D, though: Motor Storm Apocalypse, which happens to be the game that normally comes with the 3D display. It's in the story mode cutscenes that you'll see the 3D effect the best. Maybe it's just a game that's made to be played in 3D? Although I complain about the lack of depth portrayed in the few 3D compatible titles I've played so far, I still enjoy it quite a bit. Gran Turismo 5 is nice if you have it on the right setting and I'll happily play a game for hours in 3D. Movies look great on it too.

The display has 2 HDMI ports, YPbPr component input, and a headphone jack, all crammed into the right-hand side of the TV near the button controls. All buttons are hidden behind the edge of the TV, so vol+ has a raised dot on it to find it easier. The audio quality is… well, it's great at what I consider to be normal volume. Maybe it's just old, but the speaker's make that static click noise if I turn it up really loud (and judging from the length of that volume bar, it looks like it has the potential to be very loud). [EDIT: I recently tried to crank the volume up to about 60 and it sounded fine. Maybe the static was because the tv had originally came from a smoker's home?] The stand can't be adjusted or turned, which is a bit annoying, but I have no trouble with any viewing angles.

The main issue I have (and the reason it's 4 stars instead of 5) is because the screen does occasionally cut out on me. I've read somewhere that the issue may be an error caused by overheating, but I have also heard horror stories of blinking red lights and screens suddenly refusing to turning on. Thankfully, my TV has never actually stopped working and the black out only lasts for a few seconds before the picture returns. I just have to remember to hit pause before I freak out. Edit: My little brother says his LCD TV cuts out too and it's just because it's old. Not sure if he's right or not.

I've seen some sellers here on Amazon list the PlayStation 3D Display at stupidly high prices. Considering that this thing originally retailed at what, $500 or so(?) for a brand new one, it's not really worth paying much more than that, especially considering that you will likely have the 3D turned off more often than on. It's also worth saying that the warranty through Sony is definitely expired and they are, sadly, no longer in production.

Bottom line: totally worth buying for the right price. I absolutely love mine and would recommend it to everybody! But not if it costs you more than a PlayStation VR bundle.



Edited to report that unlike my other TV, the Component input DOES NOT double as an A/V input. (Plug that in, and you'll get a black-and-white picture.) Thankfully, PS2 YPbPr cables are available for PS2, so I was able to hook it up with one of those. I've also recently discovered that I can change the aspect ratio when the source is set to component. There's even an option for PSP Zoom, which actually doesn't look half-bad with the PSP connected and playing Secret Agent Clank!
