LG42PQ3000

Advantages: great for sports type programming
Disadvantages: not to my liking for feature films.

This TV is the top recommendation from Consumer Reviews (for its value and quality). I agree and I also used the recommended settings found online at tweaktv.com. I use it with Vista Media Center and it works very nicely. I use the screen zoom feature found in VMC to accommodate the various aspect ratios found in broadcast and movie sources and leave the TV set to 16:9. Make sure to adjust the resolution and any overscan settings (e.g. using the ...
...of the size and resolution (Nvidia does a great job of providing the proper software for this). The only big issue I have come across is the excessive interference with the VMC IR receiver. This TV will flood the room with IR noise when certain settings are being used (I am pretty sure its the energy saver settings). This IR noise makes the VMC remote virtually useless. I found some posts regarding these settings and corrected the issue. Now, I am ...

Review of LG 42PQ3000

LG 50 PS3000 good value for the money

Advantages: Unmatched picture quality
Disadvantages: a little slow starting up

We recently purchased the LG 50 PS3000, and have found that the picture quality is amazing. It truly is different from any other High Definition television we have ever had. The TV works well especially with sports and movies. In my opinion, certainly the best value for the money. It was not the least expensive option, but all in all we are extremely pleased with the features and hooking everything up was fairly simple. We even hooked up our surround ...
...have experienced is the amount of time it takes between hitting the power button, and the picture actually coming on, it is a delay of around 10 seconds or so, which I sometimes find a little frustrating. All and all, it is the best television purchase we have ever made. ...

Review of LG 50PS3000

As sleek as the day is long

Advantages: Astonishing images, beautiful exterior, simple to use, fantastic price
Disadvantages: Image Retention is noticeable, tweaking is needed to get the most out of the set

...when you look at the LG is the absolutely stunning looks it possesses. Piano black bevel surrounding a 42" screen, all beneath a single sheet of anti-glare glass. More than just the beautiful effect it produces, as if the TV is a single flat pane, it genuinely makes the image feel bigger because it's not hemmed in by bulky edges. The bottom of the TV tilts backwards, with a single silver smile in the corner for the power button. The stand is a ...
...the LG can't be faulted. It has an astounding number of connections - 4 HDMI ports (v1.3, the newest standard), Component, Composite, SCARTs, easily enough to satisfy anyone but the most technologically insane. A built in digital TV tuner that picks up TV & radio, as well as an analogue tuner should you need. A remarkable invisible speaker system that seemingly uses the frame itself to project the sound. A stand with a very useful 30 degree swivel ...

Review of LG 42PG6000

LG 50PG3000 Value for money

Advantages: easy to use many features included
Disadvantages: Uses a lot of electricity

I have owned this LG 50in for a couple of months now and all in all I am pretty pleased with it. I found it quick and easy to install but did have trouble getting it on the wall brackets due to the weight of it. The picture quality is one of the best I have come across and fantastic when playing computer games on. The sound needs a bit of fiddling around with at first to get it just right and needs adapting for different types of viewing such as ...
...nothing to really complain about. the built in freeview feature is great most of the time but occasionally loses signal meaning I have to turn the tv off and on again. I wish i had shopped around for this as it vary quite dramatically in price depending on where you but it from. But saying that it seems so far to be good value for money but only time will put that to the test. ...

Review of LG 50PG3000

Pan-a-Sonic come up trumps

Advantages: Picture, Sound, Price, Connectivity
Disadvantages: Not quite the best

...for my next review. The Panasonic TX-P37X10. I had been very fond of my fantastic Panasonic CRT Television but seeing as the prices of new plasmas and lcd televisions have come down recently I thought it was about time that I spent my extra online income on something that would look pride of place in my living room. Having looked around at a number of different televisions, there were three that stood out to me. They were Toshiba, Samsung and of ...
...What really attracts me to Panasonic Plasma and LCD televisions is the smart look of them which has a look of solidity and class. This particular screen is no different. So what do you get for your money with this screen? well it has all the usual Plasma HDMI inputs, you get three with this one. You also get the standard scart with two of those and There is also a PC Input if you want to connect the screen to your Computer to use as a monitor. You ...
