BRILLIANT PICTURE, SLEEK DESIGN, SOUND COULD BE BETTER
We purchased this TV about a month ago and I am very satisfied. The picture is awesome to say the least. I love the LG brand because their product seems to be top of the line. This TV pretty much has it all. I only have one complaint and it is with LCD TV's in general. The sound is good but it doesn't get very loud. Most of the time we have to keep the volume almost maxed out because it isn't very loud. Like I said though this is a drawback of all LCD TV's because there isn't much room fit larger speakers in it because of how slim it is.

Excellent Purchase
Bought this TV and have had it just under 1 month. Set up was incredibly easy. TV was light weight and manageable as compared to other flat pannel tvs I have owned. The picture and sound quality are prefect - and both have many options. HDTV has never looked better - esp. for sporting events.

4 1/2 stars...
We have this TV & liked it so much that we got the 32" in this model for our bedroom. We use the TV for gaming, television & watching DVD & Blu-Rays. The picture is great but the volume could be better. The volume goes from 1-100 & most of the time we have it up to about 70 or so & you'd think it would be pretty loud at that # but it's not. There are times we want it louder but are afraid we're going to blow the speakers or something. Even at 100 it would not be loud enough sometimes. The speakers are in the back of this TV so I'm not sure if that has something to do with it but if you have surround sound you'll probably be fine but if not be advise that the volume may seem a bit lower than you're expecting. The design of this TV is great. It's a nice TV to look at.

My only other complaint would be that it's not as fast to change channels or to go from cable to game mode very fast. It would be nice to be able to assign one button to switch back & forth between just those two (or whatever your needs are).

Setup was fast and easy.

I would recommend this TV. We like it quite a bit.

d' best tv by far
By far this is the best purchase that I ever made, crystal clear picture, lifelike and the most amazing. Hooked it up on my Comcast DVR, got all the HD Channels I could get, and walla, instant Cinema experience. Together with my Bose Hometheatre Sys, I could not ask for anything more. Cannot wait to always get Home and enjoy this TV with my Family. This TV is highly Recomended, Thanks LG for this innovation , and the technology that u guy's produced. Very Satisfied with this product...........

Excellent TV, Good bang for the buck
I recently purchased this and am very satisfied with this TV. The color, detail and contrast is excellent with Blu-ray and HDTV. Very crisp image. Lots of adjustments, and actually out of the box is quite good. Needs some minor tweaking though, but not as much as some TV's. Viewing angle is good for LCD, as are black levels. Well designed menu system too.
