LG 55LHX - 54.6" LCD TV with wireless media receiver - widescreen - 1080p (FullHD) - LED Backlight technology - HDTV - black
This is a perfect HDTV set with a great wireless media console which avoids the necessity of having a million wires going up to the screen unit. The wireless connection to the screen works flawlessly with absolutely no interference-induced flickering, but I have my console right in front of the set. Come to think of it, where else would I put it when I want to control the television set while I am watching it?
The picture is sharp and bright, and it has loads of wonderful features. It is backlit with local dimming, and this set really does have “blacker blacks.” The contrast ratio is 5 million to one. Setup was a breeze.
The only thing I want to mention is that Best Buy is selling this same HDTV for $2999.98 including delivery and setup, five hundred dollars cheaper than Amazon is offering it. That is a surprise to me, because Amazon normally has the lowest prices.
VIZIO VF551XVT 55-Inch XVT-Series TruLED 240 Hz SPS HDTV
I researched many high end LCD blacklit TV’s before I decided to purchase the VIZIO VF551XVT 55 Inch TruLED 240 Hz SPS HDTV. This particular model has the same quality and features found in current high-end Samsung and LG Models but at almost half the price.
The carrier service that delivered the TV was excellent. They brought the TV from the delivery truck into my home and unpacked it and placed it in my living room for me. They also took away the packing materials when they left.
I hooked my XBox, Blu-Ray DVD Player, Amplifier,and HD Cable Box to this TV quite easily. The instructions that came with the TV were very clear and easy to understand. I was able to program the remote control that came with this TV to operate my cable box, amplifier and DVD player in no time with minimal effort. I just followed the instructions in the manual.
I am very pleased with this TV. The picture is awesome, the features are great, the quality is excellent and it didn’t cost a fortune. I give it five stars.
LG 47LH90 47-Inch 1080p 240Hz LED Backlit LCD HDTV, Glossy Black/Infused Blue
Wonderful set. Picture is stunning with 1080 and 720 sources and looks good even with standard def. Set-up was straight forward. There is a picture wizard that gets you reasonable initial picture settings. Black levels are truly black, and depending on your brightness setting, you can make an all-black screen look like the TV is off. Colors appear to be accurate. The sweet-spot is quite wide, but once beyond 45 degrees or so off center, the blacks and colors fade a small amount. This being said, the picture is still quite good as you approach 70-80 degrees off center, and unless you are a true videophile, you won’t really notice that much. The matte screen was a selling point for me as we have a large window across from the TV and it doesn’t pose any viewing problems even with the sun shining right on the TV.
We also have an LG blue-ray player and the Simplink function works great. When you turn on the blue-ray player, the TV turns on and the input switches to the player automatically. Pretty neat.
I would definitely recommend this set to my friends.
