Hi Guys
Starting a thread after a long time - have been extremely caught up with work and relocation to the US - with the process of settling down, the need for visual nirvana drove me to Best Buy, Fry's, Target and online stores including Amazon. With my heart set on the panny p50GT30 pegged at 1360 USD, i was just about to pull the trigger when i cam across this TV LG Infinia 55LW5600 @ 1199 USD.
The specs are as follows:
LG 55LW5600 Televisions - 55" Class 3D capable 1080P 120Hz LED TV with SmartTV (54.6" diagonal) - LG Electronics US
LG Infinia 55LW5600 Review - Flat-panel TVs - CNET Reviews
These are demo pieces or open box pieces - Fry's has sold 70 pieces in the last month - and it was a steal. In fact a total strager ) decided to pull the trigger on this - had come to buy a Samsung series 6 LED
After spending 2 hours on comparing the 3 models - we decided for sheer overall value nothing beat the panny GT30, the LG in fact stole a march on the samsung. Blacks were nice, passive 3D was awesome without a head strain, glasses did not make you look like cyclops - and sheer 55 inches of brilliance. Only glitch was the remotve - sucked bigtime. The pointer device was a hit and a miss. Had wireless adapter supplied with 4 pasisive glasses with the LG smart TV to run Netflix etc. (could not test that). Overall the whites were warmer unlike Samsung, blacks were second to the panny, usability minus the remote was acceptable. (a third party remote should fix that I assume - used the logitech harmony which was better)
Any idea about this TV guys - do not want to give this a miss.
