Is this lg 55in tv good for the price?




Mr Myagi


Any pros and cons? Can I watch 3d channels without the glasses? Thanks

Answer
That is the entry level 3D TV from the 2012 line up (the LM in the model number is the 2012 designation, LA is the 2013 lineup).

Overall - that series is considered to be a very decent TV. For that particular model...since it is the entry level...you will have somewhat less features than the higher up in the series (LM6200, LM6700, LM7600, LM8600, LM9600)...but overall it's not much different. This particular one does not have the Smart Features of the LM6200 and up...and it also doesn't have as good of processors as the LM7600 and up, but it should be decent enough for normal use.

As far as 3D and glasses are concerned. These TV's use passive 3D...meaning that (and this is in laymans terms) the picture is filtered in a way that when the glasses are put on...the left eye sees one picture and the right eye sees another...and your brain makes it 3D. Without glasses on...it will just look like an extremely out of focus picture.

As far as cons for this unit...there are 2:

1st (and this applies to a LOT of manufacturers and not just LG).
The 120Hz "Tru Motion Rate" is not the same thing as a 120Hz refresh rate. So - though it sort-of performs like a 120Hz TV...it really is a 60Hz panel. You will find this to be the case in most of the lesser expensive models from all manufacturers.

2nd:
Given that this is a left-over 2012 model...you are already starting out with 1 year old technology. Not saying that it's not good technology...but that there is already a newer model and any 2012 models are simply left-overs that didnt sell. You should expect to see a significant savings from the 2013 models. It's hard to price-compare an overstock model...since the major retailers who would normally carry these have already replaced them with 2013 models...so you can;t always rely on a quick google shopping search...as it's likely to come up with few results.

Overall though...$800 for a 55" 3D TV is not bad...so you certainly aren;t getting hosed at that price...but you just have to realize that it's marked down because it is in fact a 1 - 2 year old tv...even though its new.

What LED TV brand is the best right now?

Can I know full details? Like a consumer report...

As to why you think it is the best at the moment?

THANK YOU!



Answer
Hi skyin, LG WRman Greg here,

Each brand has their own strengths and weaknesses so it would be pointless to argue which one is the best as you don't specify your criteria. However, I will give some reasons why I think LG has some of the best models for LED TVs at the moment and let you decide for yourself. The LED TV from LG, particularly the LM-series, has the advanced IPS LED Plus panel that can deliver realistic and vibrant colors and contrast. The Local Dimming capability of the LG LED TV also creates greater contrast and range of colors. The built-in TruMotion feature of these TVs help to reduce any potential juddering images to create a smooth viewing experience in even the most action-packed sequences in games, movies or sport programs. And the Local Dimming function and the Picture Wizard functions will give you control of the picture quality so you can adjust the color and contrast in the TV to best suit you and your home environment. And if you are talking about 3D LED TV, the LM-series also boast some of the greatest features for 3D TV such as 3D Depth Control, 3D Sound Zooming and 2D to 3D Conversion. Together with these, there are many more innovations coming from LG in the year 2013 regarding LED TV.

LG WRman Greg out!
