Amazing Quality!!! December 27, 2010
When noticed this product was advertised at Fry's for $1499, I had to call and make sure it wasn't a miss print or some kind of administrative error. To my surprise, it was advertised accurately so I picked it up the same day. This TV is AMAZING, and the detail that I can see in comparison to my 47inch LCD 120Hz is amazing. The picture setup is easy, and you'll be watching TV with clarity and detail you have never experienced before. I kept my old TV connected and did a side by side comparison watching the same movie through a Blu-ray player and the difference is very noticable, even my wife points out details that she didn't see before. The sound is spectacular, and the voice clarity system ensures that the music/background noise doesn't drown out voices.
I have not tried to use the 3D mode yet due to lack of interest in wearing glasses while watching TV, but if you look at the CNET review for this TV, it says that it has one of the best 2D pictures in TV's reviewed this year.

OK, so I had made my decision to buy a new television and have spent the last 4 months researching televisions, HDMI, 3D, contrast ratios and just about anything else related to television specs. I decided, besides from my research, the only way I'm really going to get to make my decision is by going to the local tv dealers (Best Buy) and deciding there. I made up my mind to go with a 3D LED television, although there isnt alot of 3D options right now and everyone is raving about the Panasonic 3D plasma, I felt like the 3D LED-LCD TV's offer the best contrast ratio. By the way, contrary to popular belief, don't let anyone tell you contrast ratio isnt that important because IT IS. I narrowed my list down to 4 desirable selections: the Samsung UN55C8000, the Sony Bravia KDL55NX810, the Vizio XVT3D554SV, and the LG INFINIA 55LX9500. I went into Best Buy, and they only had three of the TVs I wanted, the LG wasn't on display. According the salesman, the LG was "too expensive to display", whatever. So I thought "ok maybe this is a sign to mark that off the list". I compared the other three, had the salesman hookup all three to a blu-ray player and then a 3D blu-ray player, and by far the Samsung blew the other two out of the water. So I decided on that one, but I was going to order through Amazon from OneCall (by the way the best place to order online, definately go with them!!!) because they had the same TV $600 cheaper than Best Buy's SALE price. I figured I can go ahead and buy some 3D glasses, 3D BLU-RAY player and a couple of movies with the money I saved. I got home, signed into Amazon and as I was about to click the "add to cart" button for the Samsung, a review off to the side of the screen on the LG 55LX9500 caught my eye. I'm thinking "Ok that's weird". I read the review, and it was like a preacher preaching the gospel to me, I became a believer (not to be a blasphemist). So I took a HUGE risk and ordered the LG tv, which by the way, Best Buy had the Samsung TV at $2699 instock and the LG TV at $3999 ship to store, and OneCall on Amazon had the Samsung TV at $2085 and the LG at $2099, YOU CANT BEAT THAT PRICE!! When the TV arrived, let me tell, you the first thing that gives you that "WOW" effect is the elegant design of the very slim bezel along the border of the TV. It is almost all screen, very sexy! I hooked it up to my PS3 since my 3D Blu-Ray player hadnt made it in yet (another positive of OneCall is fast shipping!) played Avatar, and ladies and gentlemen, I cant even express the sheer beauty of the picture quality OUT OF THE BOX!! IT WAS'T EVEN CALIBRATED YET! I know a guy that professionally calibrates and I had him over and he was even stunned by the picture. At the time I was actually looking for another 55" TV for my game room, so I ordered the Samsung for the heck of it to see, and when it showed up I hooked it up to the same playstation, all which were plugged into the same panomax power conditioner, and folks it couldn't even compare!! I sent back the Samsung and got another LG for my game room. ALl I can say is I know this is just a review and viewing preference and picture quality is completely subjective and opinionated, but I highy reccomend this TV and if your in the market for a 3D 55" LED telivision, try it out. Another yet positive about OneCall is if your not completely satisfid with the product, you can send it back within a certain amount of time. Try it, and I guarentee you won't be disappointed. Panasonic VIERA P54VT25, eat your heart out!!!

I have spent many hours reading the reviews of the different LED TV's, and finally purchased the LG 55LX9500. I was so excited when I received it!! The picture was AWESOME!! Within a few hours, I noticed a little black spot on the screen near the top right hand corner. It wasn't a bad pixel, but what looked like a bad backlight LED. I called LG Customer Support, and reached a call center overseas. After explaining the problem over, and over to the support rep, he finally determined that a repair technician would need to look at the TV. The repair tech. was scheduled for an 8:00 am - 12:00 pm appointment window, but never showed. I finally received a phone call at 5:30 pm, and he said that he would need to order the LED backlight panel. I was told that the parts should be here in about 1 week.

After waiting over 3 weeks, I received a call from LG Customer Service. The parts are not available, and don't see them being available anytime soon. LG then offered to replace the TV with a brand new unit. I was OK with that. After checking inventory, there were no 55LX9500's anywhere in stock. LG then offered a refurbished unit as a replacement. I was a little uneasy with this, but I agreed to take a refurbished unit. After checking inventory, there were no refurbished 55LX9500's anywhere in stock. LG then offered a 2011 comparable model replacement. I got a little excited, but then was let down when I was told that there was no model to replace this TV. LG finally said that they will give me a refund for the amount I paid for the TV, but not the 3D glasses I purchased that only work with the 2010 LG TV's. Luckily, the retailer I purchased them form said that they would take them back outside of their normal return policy for in-store credit. (Thank you OneCall, you guys are GREAT!!)

LG Customer Service told me that I should be receiving a phone call from their logistics company to pick up the TV. At this point, the screen started displaying vertical stripes on the right half of the screen. The TV was still viewable, but it was rather annoying. After waiting a week, I contacted LG Customer Service again, and was told that I should have been provided with the contact information for the logistics company on the first call I made. I then contacted the logistics company, and gave them the reference number I had received. The logistics company couldn't find any reference to me, or my reference number. I then called LG Customer Service again, and I was told that they hadn't yet entered my return request. (after a week) I was then assured that they would be entering it by the end of business that day, and should be receiving a call from the logistics company "Within a few business days". That night, the TV has stopped working completely. It is now 3 day later, and I still haven't heard from the logistics company. This is the only TV I have in my house, and it doesn't work. I have to wait for LG to receive the TV in their warehouse, and inspect it before they will issue a refund.

I can then order a new TV, and wait for it to be delivered. After this level of customer service I have received from LG, I will NOT be purchasing another LG product.
