We are extremely pleased with the LG 26" LCD TV. The picture is bright and crisp, sound control is good, remote is responsive and easy to use, and it was plug and play. Good value for good product.

Sound is nice for such a small TV. The speaker grills are underneath the housing and point downwards. They are also 'ported' on the rear so there's actually more sound eminating from the rear of the TV than towards the front. Because of that, this TV is probably best placed against a wall so the sound coming from the rear gets reflected. br /Interestingly, although the treble and bass settings both have a typical range of 0 to 100, I can hear very little difference no matter where the audio settings are. Treble and (especially) Bass set at 0 sounds doesn't sound much different than when set to 100. br / br /Color is excellent, but whites/blacks are still 'iffy' for me - playing with the settings, either the blacks seem too black, or the whites get too blown out. I admittedly haven't seriously sat down and tried to deal with it, though. br / br /Left/right viewing angle is good. The image turns a little pink when viewed from an extreme right and left angle, but it has to be pretty extreme as I said. br /Top/bottom viewing angle is sub par. Standing above the TV and looking downwards to the screen, the picture looks a little washed out. From below looking up, the picture is dark. You can see a difference in the image (but not too bad) when sitting upright versus laying down due to the elevation difference. (This is with the TV about 5' away.) br / br /A 1/4" blue LED appears when the TV is powered on. Nicely, it's a somewhat dimmed LED, and not one of those nova-bright blue LEDs that so many electronics like to 'dazzle' with. When turned off, a red LED appears instead indicating 'stand by'. It's also not too bright. The settings allow either LED to be turned off permanently. br / br /A power button is on the front, right underneath this power LED. Other buttons for volume, channel, input selection, menu are on the right side of the housing out of sight. They're not easily 'viewable' for those that might put this TV inside a small entertainment center. br / br /It takes about 8-9 seconds from when the TV is powered on for the TV to 'boot up' and start showing the currently tuned-in channel. The blue LED blinks once a second or so during this warmup phase so that you know your hitting the power button actually did something. br / br /The remote is *very* nicely laid out with easy access to commonly used features such as quick change of aspect ratio, quick change of closed captioning, Favorite channels, button for quick access to picture settings, another for audio, settings, etc. The remote was actually a deciding factor for me since a competitor's set of the same exact price, about the same specs, sitting right next to this LG had a horriblely huge remote filled with a massive array of tiny little buttons, probably one button for each and every feature. I do wish LG used some more colors for the buttons, though; most are black, a couple are light grey.
Good TV April 24, 2008

This is a good TV. I previously had an Olevia (Syntax) 27" LCD HDTV, and I have to say that this TV is a significant improvement. I recommend this TV! br / br /The Good Features br / br /The speakers are good (no hiss or low quality digital sound). The speakers are hidden below the TV. So it's good for confined spaces. They're not as good as a $500 surround sound system with a sub-woofer, but you get what you pay for. br / br /It has an option to turn off the TV power LED when it is not on, which is helpful if you sleep in the room with the TV. The LED also flashes when it receives a command from the remote control, which is good feedback when you don't notice something is blocking the remote control signal to the TV, like the edge of a TV stand. When the TV is off, the red LED looks like HAL 9000 from the movie 2001, which I got a kick out of. br / br /I like the swivel stand on the TV, which is good for easier cable setup. It's Energy Star compliant. It has a great user interface for adding and removing TV channels after you have automatically scanned all the channels (tabbed panels with a preview pane). It can handle HDTV (ATSC) and analog TV (NTSC) signals. br / br /The picture quality is much better than my previous LCD TV. I have no complaints when it's viewed from a typical viewing angle. br / br /The Bad Features br / br /Even though it has great side to side viewing angle, it has a slightly worse than average viewing angle from the bottom. So when mounting this TV up high, you should consider wall mounting it with a downward tilt. Viewing from 45 degrees from below washes out the colors, but this viewing angle isn't typical for most people. br / br /The reflection from the border on the TV can be distracting in a room with a lot of lights when displaying a show with very low light levels (e.g. a horror movie typically has very low light levels). The border also shows dust a little more easily than a matte finish. It's a nice and shiny TV though.
