The Real Review
Pros: 120Hz (This can be a con as well, see below) - There is a review stating this is not a 120Hz panel, it is. IPS Pannel - This is the type of LCD it is and IPS delivers better, truer color. Excellent viewing angel - Someone stated it has a poor viewing angle. I don't know what that person was looking at but this is not true for this LCD. Inexpensive - This is a very good bang for the buck TV. Great for bright room. There is a review that states this is TV is poor in bright rooms. Great for gaming - There is a review stating this panel is poor for gaming. Actually this TV has very low latency and as such there is little lag in the TV responding to movement in games. Cons: 120Hz can't be turned off. This can make movies seem too real, what is known as the soap opera effect. It bothers most people and with most 120Hz TVs this can be turned off. With this TV it can not. LG could release a firmware that has the option to turn this off, but don't bet on it. This effect is not negative in most TV shows (except dramas), sports and games. Poor for dark rooms. I think this is due to the 120Hz and strong contrast. Again I think this is just for things that are affected by the soap opera effect. It becomes worse in the dark. Neutral: Only 2 HDMI ports - If you need more than 2 you may want to think about getting yourself a receiver or Home Theater in a Box Sound - If you need better sound you may want to think about getting a receiver or Home Theater in a Box Not a Smart TV - If this is important to you look elsewhere. Overall most will be happy with this TV. If you are sensitive to the soap opera effect then look elsewhere. Soap opera effect: [...] Professional Review: [...] Another good review: [...] Optimal Settings: [...]
