 Almost Perfection! Aug 15, 2010
I highly suggest buying this tv. The only reason I gave it 4 stars, is because I can't figure out how to get the occasional "blur" from fast movements to stop. If anybody does...PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! Other than that, I LOVE THIS TV!!! The picture quality is almost life like. The tv frame is gorgeous, very classy. I guess there could be one more flaw, it has SO many options for things to do to the picture! I just don't have a clue what any of them do!?
Like I said, if anybody knows how to help with the occasional blur, feel free to comment. Other than that, you won't be disappointed with this product...LOVE IT!!!
 Great TV, Picture, and Sound -- and Reasonable Price Jul 25, 2010
Taking a time out here to say I've had this TV for almost 8 months.
Excellent picture, clear, well-defined with good color, easy menu controls, good sound features. Viewing at an angle, the picture still looks very good. I know contrast ratio on some of the new Panasonics has skyrocketed, so I would not get too hung up with that, because on this TV, at 80,000:1, the contrast ratio is very good. Menu adjustments for picture and sound are vey simple. For my taste the color is already very good out of the box. For sound, there is a feature to adjust the overall sound level (6 levels), with each higher level representing a new higher range of volume for the +/- adjustment on the remote. Too, you can adjust the treble and bass, and the end result can be very, very nice.
Regular dvd movies look great on it, and that was something I was concerned about because of the bigger screen--definition is so good, I don't even need to consider Blue Ray. One concern was whether the HD would make DVD movies have the look of daytime soap operas, that is, staged, as though in a theatrical play and not actually filmed or having the look of cinema, and the HD does give it that kind of staged, unreal look--but thankfully, it's an easy fix. Thanks to an earlier reviewer for pointing it out, in the menu picture settings you have to go to advanced controls, turn off the TruMotion 240Hz feature, then make sure have the Real Cinema feature turned on. Bottom Line: I would highly recommend LG televisions.
I should mention the source of the signal for my TV was not cable or satellite, but a Terk indoor HD TV antenna that picks up all the local San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose channels very well (excellent HD at zero cost per month!), given distance of about 10 mi from Oakland, 20 mi from San Francisco, and 30 mi from San Jose.
Hope this was of some help to someone.
Nice TV Apr 29, 2010
I am not a person who watches TV, but when my old one went, I got this LG & it looks amazing compared to anything I have seen in a TV. Especially with High Definition DVD's & I'm sure BluRay (which I am soon getting)
The picture looked like a 3D picture that had alot of depth to the picture. The blacks are true black & the characters in the TV show move quite lucidly, I have to say I have never seen anything like this before, it's very different than any TV. You can zoom to different aspect ratios, make it bigger, but it does lose quality when you zoom. I haven't used my computer over the TV yet, but will play some movies from my hard drive when I get a wireless cable/USB
The TV is really pretty even when it's turned off, it has a clear lucite frame on the outside edges of the black bezel that frames the TV. There is no glare at all on the picture, even with the lamp on, or the sun shining through the blinds.
The only thing I noticed, is when the actor speaks, you can sometimes see pixels in the mouth, but it's not really a deal breaker, as I said before, it looks amazing to me & HD shows like Smallville (dvd), really pop out with the colors the way it was filmed, enhanced, etc.. Yes this looks awesome, but if I had the money, I would have bought a newer TV, as I'm sure the newest ones look even better. All in all, I think this was an excellent choice that I am still happy about!
Great LCD HD TV Apr 14, 2010
Spectacular picture that autoadjusts to the ambient light in the room Great sound that autoadjusts down when loud commercials come on. Lots of inputs and lots of adjustments if you are into tweaking "everything." Had just one problem with the set when I first got it. The sound was out of lipsynch on some channels. However, LG sent a tech out to my house to install a software upgrade that eliminated the problem. That was impressive. This is also a very good looking set, even when it is not on. Also, when the set was delivered from Amazon, the delivery men unpacked the TV, attached it to its swivel stand and set it in place for me. They connected it and turned it on to make sure that it was working properly. All that, at no extra charge. I highly recommend this TV.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
