Perfect for what I need it for. I love watching movies and doing my everyday computing on this great TV. Works wonders with my netflix account, and now I can watch all of my downloaded movies in HD.

I love my new TV. It has a good picture. It would be nice if they could put better speakers on it.

I purchased this TV last year and have been impressed with the value. I was able to purchase this TV for the lowest price I could find for 47" HDTV's. I have seen many other TVs in this price range that don't offer 1080p at 120Hz. The picture is great and I really enjoy the swivel ability of the stand since I view from different positions. The picture looks great from all angles, so everybody can enjoy the image. The image is bright, sharp and clear and never has any "ghosting" when I play games on it or watch television. In dark scenes I am able to see everything, which is better than my previous television. I think that is due to the dynamic contrast. Whatever it is, it works. The only things I can offer as downsides to this particular TV are the remote control, the sound, and only having 3 HDMI inputs. The remote control isn't anything special; but, that isn't a big deal to me. The thing that I don't like is the buttons for switching video inputs are on opposite sides of the controller. I use this almost every time I watch the TV. I think this could be easier if the remote control was designed a little better. The sound of this TV was a little disappointing at first. The speakers are another point that I thought could be better. My first impression of the sound, coming from my previous TV, was that it sounded very far away and quiet. I was able to adjust the sound more to my preference through the audio menu; so again, not a major issue. The only other option that I could suggest be better is the lack of a fourth HDMI input. I have 3 HDMI devices plugged into this TV and I have to have one of them hanging out the side. Having all three in back, and a fourth on the side would be perfect. All that being said, I am very pleased with this television. I think the value outweighs is shortcomings. For the price, I really can't complain as it has some nice features that balance it's faults. I would recommend this TV to anyone that is on a budget. I don't think you can find a better television for the price.

I got this TV as a gift for my husband last fall and we have not been disappointed. The color is great, the ease of use is wonderful considering my husband is not one of those technical guys. My grandkids play their WII on it and the 6yo thinks its the best thing since strawberry milk. Just ordered a 55" to replace the 47" (that my grandson threw a wii remote at) but going to get it fixed and put in bedroom because the picture is too good to dismiss (even with a wii remote imprint). I am a true LG customer.

I have owned a number of televisions over the years but the new LG that I have is the best ever. I will never purchase another TV unless it has LG on it and would recommend everyone else do the same. In fact, I recommended to my son that he and his wife purchase an LG and they did and are just as happy with it as I am with mine. Based on my recommendation my brother in law also purchased an LG TV. It is the best TV on the market.

I love my LD500. I got great quality for an AWESOME price. I couldn't be happier. The picture on this TV is one of the best I have seen.

The best price on the internet. [...] Everything as promised. Excellent TV quality. It's a LCD TV, but I can not tell the difference of picture quality between LED and LCD. Fits my needs just fine.

This TV has a great picture and I was able to get it at a great price. And when I added a LG blu-ray it became AMAZING. Absolutely no problems with this TV in the past 6 months.

Very happy with this purchase. Only complaint is with the power cord. It does not fit tight enough into its socket. After the TV is swiveled several times the power cord comes loose.

I didn't want to spend a lot but I wanted a good name brand 1080p LCD that was at least +46" and that's exactly what I got with this TV. My only complaints are the sound quality isn't great and there's no internet connectivity, but I can work around those problems. The picture quality is excellent and I've been really impressed with how good SD channels look. Xbox 360 looks amazing and I watch a lot of EPL football too which looks equally awesome. I don't like turning on 120Hz with the cinema pulldown though, that makes the framerate look a little off, like it's way too smoothed out or something. So I simply use either the 24p cinema mode for movies, or I turn that off and turn on 120hz for video games and sports. I was able to dial in the picture settings myself pretty easily as it did need some adjusting out of the box.

Could not believe the picture. It's true clarity was amazing. Sports is a whole new ballgame not to mention everything else. Best purchase I've made in a long, long time.

I got a great deal on this TV from Adorama, and based on what I have seen so far I do not regret my purchase. The picture is good, though not as good as the entry level Sony's or Samsung's, which I consider excellent. There is a slight motion blur in fast action scenes, but not enough to complain about. The only gripes I have are the mediocre to poor audio quality. I would definitely recommend this TV to anyone looking for a set with a great screen size value and some great features, but who doesn't want to break the bank.

My Lg delivers the best quality picture I have ever seen and I have done my research folks. In HD it actually looks like your right thee on the set with the actors. Amazing. Don't even get me started on Blu Ray .OMG incredible. You could not ask for a better TV and a better picture. IF you do not own an LG your missing out on the best of the best.

This is the second LG we have bought this year. Very pleased with both. I was going to wait to buy this one, which is our main set, but the price that was offered was too good to pass up. Would recommend to anyone.
