First of all, I think I underestimated the size of this TV. When the Amazon delivery guy showed up, my jaw dropped at how big the 47 inch looked in our master bedroom. That said this TV has some great features, with some calibration we were able to get some of our 720P Apple TV content to look exceptionally well. One caveat is that the picture with all the bells and whistles is almost TOO good when playing non HD content, so that sometimes shows look almost hyper real and more fake. We found that by making sure the True Cinema is off with non HD content, that solves the issue and when it is on with HD content, it truly is amazing. The blacks are extremely black and we found the calibration menus to be very easy to use. Also we had the White Glove Delivery and we were very pleased with that as well. All in all, with all the TVs we looked at before going with the LG, the LG seems to have the crispest colors and it "Popped" more then the other. We saw the 47LG50 at Best Buy and that picture looked miles above even the most expensive TV they had on display and the 47LG70 is even better then that. Very happy with this purchase.

I bought this TV at Video Only for $1099.99 people! That place kicks butt. He brought me right to it when I said NO plasma and NO glare...Awesome TV! And obviously a screaming deal! I'm not thrilled with the red on the sides of the unit but I'll deal...lol :) Very easy to set up. Satellite or HD cable a must. Blue Ray is fantastic. I'm very happy!

We love this TV. Great picture. Good online shopping savings. We loved it so much that 2 weeks later my son bought same product. And he got it for 150.00 lower than we paid. But all good everyone got a bargain.

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. br / br /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. br / br /You cannot go wrong with this unit.

I bought this TV about a week ago and I am very pleased with it's performance. I have Directv with the DVR and HD package, and it's the best relationship ever! Rich colors, and deep blacks are wonderful, they "pop" at you, almost like 3D! The TV is not heavy at all, easy to set up, nice clean sound, feather touch power button, piano glossy black color, 4 HDMI, and the best picture ever. To take advantage of the 1080P, I plugged in my PS3, and the pictures are amazing, deep blacks, and vibrant colors. I had a plasma Panasonic that I paid double for (5 years ago), and the LG kicks butt! The only thing that I have a problem with is that the remote is hard to program, I did not find any directions. If I could program the remote, I would give it 5 stars.
