LG 42LW550T


$1,270.00 Released May, 2011

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Seven 3D glasses included with the package. Passive 3D is more comfortable due to the lighter glasses. Excellent range of media functionalities, multiple in/outputs and TruMotion upscaling.

The Cons:Passive 3D's picture isn't quite as detailed as active 3D TVs. Built-in speakers are poor, considering it is a $1000+ premium TV, buyers should pair it with a basic sound system. Limited vertical viewing angles, might require a wall mount for optical viewing.

The LG 42LW550T is a high definition LED television designed for 3D playback. This is closely related to the LG 55LW650T, having the same basic design and features but in a more compact 42 inch display design.
