5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Full HD Bang for your Buck!, June 6, 2008

I've had great experience with LG products - so my purchase of a 47" Full HD set from LG seemed logical.

The picture on my 47LG50 is terrific! Setup out of the box was very intuitive, although I would recommend that the set's picture be set to "standard" instead of "vivid" (torch mode is set by default).

Even when powered off, this set is beautiful. Its piano black case frames the 47" screen very well, although it is more susceptible to fingerprints.

The set offers three HDMI 1.3 inputs and more connection options than one would normally need.

I couldn't give this set a stronger recommendation!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great color and picture...., February 12, 2009

Pros - The TV has great color and picture quality. It's worth it for the price listed. No Motion blur with Verizon FIOS cable.

Cons - The TV gets a slight distortion on certain camera angles when watching high action sports such as football. This is very unnoticeable to most of my friends but I'm a very picky person and can tell on certain camera angles or plays when watching sports the TV tends to get static.
The speaker system has a Tru SRS surround feature which is useless along with a clear voice option. The speaker/surround feature could be better. I just use the default sound options for no added surround features from the TV.

A few things to take in to consideration.

1 - Make sure your TV room as adequate space. If you don't have at least 10-12 feet between you and your HDTV of this size you might get nausea. The TV can be overwhelming since its 47 inches big and looks totally different in your living room compared to in store.

2 - Make sure you fine tune the colors and lower the back light as it's very powerful. My Tv is tuned to a 60 backlight 80 contrast 55 brightness.

3 - Make sure you get an extended warranty with any HDTV you buy even if its not this model. HDTV's are highly susceptible to dead pixel lines. Most warranty's don't cover a dead pixel line unless it covers a certain area of the TV.

4 - Use a HDMI cable that's oxygen free and shielded. You can buy one online for like 10$ instead of 100$ at your local shop.

We priced many tvs and this one was the best bargain for the money! Like the previous reviewer stated, I couldn't give this a higher rating. It's a great LCD!
