LG 42LBX Review: 42” 1080p LCD HDTV


LG 42LBX reviewUp for review: The LG 42LBX from the Opus Series. LG has reached another milestone in terms of better productivity and quality products. The performance of this LCD TV reflects on its stature.

No matter how intense the on-screen action is, with the TruMotion feature and full 1920×1080p resolution, you get stable, smoother and clearer picture quality. The TruMotion feature provides 3 settings: low, high and off. You can also split the screen with the Demo mode to really see the difference. With 120Hz rapid frame rate conversion and blazing-fast pixel-response time technology, the 42LBX provides nail-biting action scenes enjoyment. In addition, the super IPS technology of this LCD TV reduces any fast-motion video blurring and distortion to offer a hassle-free video watching experience.

With a price of around $1,049.99 MSRP, the LG 42LBX LCD TV is loaded with advanced key features that makes it a great potential buy.

The Opus LG 42LBX definitely delivers a delightful visual symphony with its chiseled outline. With LG’s trademark SimpLink® HDMI inputs, this LCD TV brings the best in connectivity. As a result, you can view both uncompressed high-definition video as well as uncompressed multi-channel audio in 720p, 1080i and even 1080p formats. The three HDMI supports standard, high-definition video, multi-channel digital audio and is also fully backward-compatible with DVI. However, reviews show that its USB port does show some problem while playing content of JPEG file format.

In addition there is no slot for Cable card. But as the tuner is Clear QAM compatible, you can attach your cable TV signal directly into the RF connector and enjoy all high-definition digitally broadcast content from cable or satellite.

An ideal blend of beauty, advanced technology and affordability the all new LG 42LBX should definitely be taken into consideration if you’re shopping in the 42” LCD TV market.
