Full HD 1080p Resolution
Displays HDTV programs in full 1920 x 1080p resolution for a more detailed picture.

---

XD Engine

LG's proprietary XD Engine technology takes low-resolution analog signals to near high-definition levels, providing better overall picture quality and an enhanced viewing experience. XD Engine encompasses six distinct processes that help to improve brightness, enhance detail, apply more accurate color and reduce noise, among other benefits.

---

AV Mode
The AV Mode optimizes the picture into Cinema, Sports, and game Mode according to the video and audio content. The viewer has the ability to quickly choose the correct mode for the picture they are viewing.

---

Intelligent Sensor

Unlike other sensors which can only sense brightness of ambient light, LG’s “Intelligent Sensor” uses 4,096 sensing steps to evaluate its surroundings. Using a sophisticated algorithm, the LG processes picture quality elements including brightness, contrast, color, sharpness and white balance. The result is a picture optimized for it’s surroundings, more pleasing to watch and which can also save up to 50% in power consumption.

---

TruMotion 120Hz

Advance 120Hz panel provides clearer, smoother images, even during fast action scenes creating a more stable structure for a crisper picture.

---

24p Real Cinema
Hi-def movies run at 24 frames per second, the speed that they were originally filmed in, making your home-cinema experience one step closer to a “Real Cinema” experience.

---

Fine-Tuned Natural Sound

LG’s 2008 line of TVs include a unique invisible speaker system, tuned by renowned audio expert, Mr. Mark Levinson. Speakers are embedded in strategic spots behind the front cabinet and use minute vibrations to turn the entire front bezel into the speaker system. The result is a clean, polished look, and enhanced audio by increasing the “sweet spot”, giving a wider and richer sound field. Clear Voice Technology automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of human voice frequency range to help keep dialogue audible when background noise swells.

---

ISFccc Calibration Ready

Your LG HDTV will look great right out of the box, but also contains the detailed adjustment capabiliyt necessary for professional calibration to Imaging Science Foundation specifications. The resulting ISF "day" and "night" modes will then picture performance customized to the user's specific environment.

---

LG SimpLink
Allows for convenient control of other LG SimpLink products using the existing HDMI connection.

---

HDMI 1.3 with Deep Color
HDMI 1.3 supports 30-bit, 36-bit and 48-bit (RGB or YCbCr) colour depths. Previous versions of the HDMI specification only supported 24-bit colour depth.

• Eliminates on-screen colour banding, for smooth tonal transitions and subtle gradations between colours
• Enables increased contrast ratio
• Can represent many times more shades of gray between black and white. At 30-bit pixel depth, four times more shades of gray would be the minimum, and the typical improvement would be eight times or more.

This review is from: LG 47LG70 47-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV (Electronics)

We received this LG last week and couldn't be happier. My husband set it up himself and had it programmed and ready to go in a short time. The picture is great and we are extremely pleased with the sound. We looked at many LCD's before making this purchase and I know we made the right choice. The price, unbelievable. No matter which angle you look at the screen, the picture is clear and sharp. It doesn't matter if the room is dark or well lit, great picture!!!

This review is from: LG 47LG70 47-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV (Electronics)

I reviewed many, many LCDs before purchasing this unit. I am a long time Sony fan but after looking at the various offerings in this size/class and comparing them to the LG there was one major thing that stood out, there was NO glare at all. I have this TV in a room where there tends to be a lot of glare and the Sony I had in the room was terrible with reflections. I went into a local store to see the 47LG70 and could not believe how well it dealt with glare from the lights in the store. That sealed the deal for me.

Excellent picture, pretty good sound but I rarely use the speakers on the TV and instead us my Sony sound system for everything (XBOX 360, Dish HD, Blueray, Apple TV, etc..) and lots of connections with HDMI. Remote is fine and I really like the swivel stand. A snap to setup and the picture quality with blueray (Iron Man looks fantastic!!) is truly amazing.

You cannot go wrong with this unit.

This review is from: LG 47LG70 47-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV (Electronics)

I recently purchased this TV from Fry's Electronics for about $1400.00 with tax. I have been waiting (for almost a year) for the Samsung 650 to drop below $2000 but finally decided to go with this LG. I could not believe the price of this television given it is 1080p and 120 hz. So far, I could not have made a better purchase. The sound is great and the picture is absolutely wonderful. I've been watching movies on Blu-ray and playing games on my Playstation 3. My jaw drops every time. The picture is really incredible. To be perfectly honest, I couldn't see a difference between this television, the Samsung 650/750 and the Sony XBR. Now that it is in my living room I have no regrets. It looks amazing!!!
