PAUL L : is this a smart tv?ERIC F : No.
Shopper : what does the picture wizard do on this TV?LORI R : I don't know we bought 66 of these tv's for a restaurant we are building, my subcontractor AV guy hooked them all up and tested the tv's and I actually haven't seen the tv's or watched them.TOREY B : The product is a great flat screen great picture great sound and a great priceTOBIN N : It helps you to optimize the picture settings on your TV inorder to get the best picture possible given your environment (cable feed, amount of light in the room, etc.).
Shopper : can this TV also be connected to a laptop computer for use as a monitor?THOMAS S : Yes, I've used the HDMI port to connect it to my laptop & it works great. This is an excellent all around TV - would highly recommend it.RAJENDRA B : As per my knowledge yes, it can be connected via HDMI Cable or VGA cableALEJANDRO I : Yes, so long your laptop has an output port that matches any of the inputs of the monitor. Typically most computers nowadays have HDMI, micro-HDMI or mini-HDMI ports (so does the monitor). This will also imply that your laptop also handles HD. If your laptop only has a VGA port, using this equipment as your laptop monitor will not work because it does not support VGA. You can convert the signal from VGA but, then again, your laptop, not being able to support HD, will render a poor performance an image quality in this demanding monitor.

great TV

Happy with everything except the speakers. Does not carry enough volume at times and there is no way to add speakers or sound bar that I can determine. It is not a smart TV. Great picture however.

Garbag TV stopped working completely after 2 years

The TV performed alright for around 2 years. It had issues with sound ocassionally and is quite sluggish to turn on, but it was at least working. Then it abruptly stopped working -- completely -- and LG wanted to charge me hundreds more dollars to fix it. This is a garbage product. Televisions are not supposed to become completely nonfunctional within 2 or 3 years. Do not buy this product. It is a waste of your money AT BEST.

Junk

I bought this set three years ago. I very rarely watch tv so was expecting this one to last a long time. Not even close. The HDMI portal broke and the repair is almost the price of the whole set. I'll never buy an LG product again

wont turn on

I work hard for my money and I can be affording a new TV every two years. this is my second LG tv that I bought and again it stops working. the first one I get but two in a row, I know nothing last but I just figure a few more years before having to replace it. I'm just so desapointed on LG. I wish they would give their tv a longer worrantee

RIP 3/3/16

Was hoping this TV would last more then 1 year and 9 months. I liked it so much but only last this long is a major disappointment.

Great price for a decent gaming LED

I purchased this television about 8 months ago at a spectacular price. It was on sale at my local retailer and I was looking for a slightly larger TV to fill out my smaller apartment's living room. I bought it for gaming and watching Netflix and Amazon Instant. It works wonderfully. There are lots of color and saturation and brightness options that fit any color room or any lighting. I love that the bezel is not too big but not gone completely (I didn't want a screen that went to the edge. Perfect.

We love this new TV.

The features of this new TV are great and the picture quality is excellent. We use it for over the air broadcasts and with an Apple TV. Works perfectly in either case.
