Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Good design nice picture in hd mode for sky hd ps3 etc, lg hd tvs in many cases are just as good as samsung but at a cheaper price ive hd 5 lg and samsungs defferents models..
Bad points:: sound could be better as always but I think we all know thats down to how thin new hd tvs are over the old tube televisons less space = less space for bigger speakers which in most cases results in a sound which is less solid

TV Buyers Guide

Manufacturer's Description

Customized modes for the content of your choice LG TVs have three special modes (Cinema, Sport and Game modes) for enhanced picture and audio quality. These are easily accessible using the AV MODE hot key on the remote control. The picture quality adjust system developed by the foremost experts in picture quality. You’re the expert when it comes to adjusting the picture quality of your LG TV. The picture quality control guide program installed in LG LCD TV allows you to easily control the picture quality in following the adjust guide developed by visual specialists. The power to control only the volume of voices Sometimes when watching films it is difficult to hear voices over the background sound of their environment. The clear voice feature adjusts the sound balance to emphasise voices and reduce background noise. Great sound is meant to be heard, not seen! The front bezel works as a speaker, replacing the normal speaker grill. With the Invisible Speaker System, the speakers are embedded in strategic spots underneath and around the front bezel. They enhance the audio by increasing the ‘sweet spot’ to give a wider and richer sound field. A Big Screen TV that Delivers Big Savings The Backlight control function controls the brightness of the TV, while the Screen Off function lets you switch off the screen while keeping the sound alive. Stand by Mode 0 function sets your TV to a power saving mode where zero electricity is used. Added to these 3 basic power saving functions is the Intelligent Sensor function that controls automatically the brightness and the colour of the picture in accordance with the brightness and the colour of the viewing area. These are just some of the reasons why the majority of LG TVs have been certified by the Energy Saving Trust to save you money off your electricity bills.
