Great TV, Great Features, Great Price
on December 24, 2013

Pros: Great for gamers, less than 30ms of Display latency. Large Vibrant screen, great customization features. Impressive app store.
Cons: 3D has some artifacts once every 15 min or so, it is only for one frame at the time, but it is enough to make your eyes twitch for a little bit. By default it has enabled all of those things which give all video the "soap-opera effect" but with some decent config areas you can turn that off.
I was shopping around for a television to replace my aging DLP which I had used for gaming and movies for the past 8 years or so and came across this gem. Modern TVs aren't very gamer friendly especially if you play many fighting games(Street Fighter, Blazblue, Persona4: Arena, etc) or if you're into twitch shooters(Call of Duty, Battlefield, etc) due to the large amounts of display latency that you get from the pre-processing that so many 50inch and higher TVs use now. After doing months of research on tested models it came down to this model and another one from a competing manufacturer. However this one was around 1000 dollars cheaper(though this one does have 17ms more latency than the other un-named model).
So frugality and common sense won out and I picked up this television. Which wound up being a pretty big plus because my wife was really excited about the prospect of a 3D TV. However the 3D feature does bring up my biggest complaint about the television. While not quite on clockwork, every 15 minutes or so the TV has a bit of an artifact inducing frame only visible from the left eye while using the supplied glasses. It only lasts for a split second and is gone as quickly as it came, but it does ruin the immersion that 3D is billed for bringing to the table.
Side note: the remote is a little odd, but if you've ever used a Wiimote you can quickly get the hang of it.
Pros: Performance, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bad TV for the Multimedia/Special Features Junkie
on November 14, 2014
Posted by: The Absolute Kaze
from Washington, DC, USA
One complaint that covers it all. Every time I turn around something else is being eliminated from the services/special features and LG doesn't give ANYTHING in its place. Oh, and there needs to be a remote developed that has a keyboard on it for this model. I enjoy the point and click but this is the age of the "text" master it would be nice to have SOMETHING nice that works with this set and how about adding "Theater" as a download for us movie server owners with a huge catalog, since the other service NO LONGER works..
Pros: Style/Design, easy to use, picture quality
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good picture, Magic Remote JUNK
on May 24, 2016

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned this TV for three years. During the first year the "Magic" part of the remote stopped working. The Magic part is the mouse cursor which I believe uses Bluetooth. LG sent me a replacement. Later that next year it failed again. This time they replaced the Bluetooth board in the TV. Now, in year three it has failed again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great non 4K TV
on January 11, 2019

from Colorado
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Has worked day and night for last 4 yrs till last month the 1.8V supply went out, took ferrite and one CAP with it. Found out other 10UF was shorted (too small) so added two 50 WV CAPS and larger current handling inductor. Wish it had Bluetooth for late night viewing. LG 4K 72" is in my future.
Pros: Features/Settings
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointment
on September 3, 2013
Posted by: lightflier
This TV is total waste. VERY SLOW and irresponsive in Source and Settings. The WiDi is not compatible with Windows 8. The remote control is total joke. I have to jiggle it every 10 seconds in order to make it work. The browser is slow with very poor flash support. 3D is OK but other that that I wouldn't recommend it to anybody.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Picture is not very good quality
on February 3, 2013

I did extensive research and shopping before purchasing this tv. I am very disappointed with the picture quality. I spend as much time trying to fine tune the picture as I do watching a program, and that is not acceptable. I called the satellite carrier and had them check my satellite dish and replace all the cable from dish to receiver, but no improvement. This tv is capable of many things, but in my experience, a good picture is not among them. Sadly.
