Purchased in March 2014 import Germany, I was worried about its operation in France, no hesitations works Quite normally (recognition of language channels etc) Large screen, superb quality HD and SD channels bluray for a step back and that's fine. Warning slab very prone to glare it is necessary to have no window or light in the wrong place, but in the dark: funky, like the movies. I read a lot about the sound but for normal usage I find it highly enough. For PS3 games ... Well it is very large and frankly awesome for immersion Pleased with my purchase
