Score 5.0/10

Good points:: You cant use Sky Remote with this TV as no code - if it wasn't for that problem this would be a great TV - picture, sound and look are top class. But having to use two remote is very irritating and it's outrageous that two huge organisations like LG and Sky can't get there act together to fix such a simple thing to help their customers.

Freeview is free digital terrestrial TV.

Number of scart ports	1
