Do you fear 'going digital'? If so, the LG 42LT75 really is a great way to upgrade ahead of the great analogue switch off. This LCD TV boasts Freeview Playback, allowing you to pause and record your shows. With great image processing and an affordable ...
Freeview Playback functionality works well ; great operating system ; price, picture quality
Signal weakens en route to the second digital tuner ; picture deteriorates if watched from much of an angle
It turns out that Freeview Playback is a really substantial addition to the terrestrial digital tuner proposition, so much so that it almost elevates the 42LT75 to somewhere around the top of any Freeview TV audition list. It also produces LG's finest ...
Like its 32-inch sibling, LG's 42LT75 carries Freeview Playback: our digital terrestrial service's long overdue answer to Sky's sublime Sky+ digital recording system. Realising that the 42LT75 is likely to appeal to relatively un-technical people...
The LG 32LT75 is a very well thought-out product. It's both elegant and simple in styling and provides a solution to the problem of finding a simple way of recording TV programmes without paying for an external PVR. It's a fantastic way of simplifying ...
Picture quality ; menu systems ; built-in PVR ; styling ; remote ; sensible price
Sound is a little weak
The LG 32LT75 is a superb way of reducing clutter in your lounge without losing the ability to record your favourite TV channels. Nothing about this TV disappoints apart from the slightly weedy sound
For around £570, does the LG 32LT75 manage to offer an all-in-one solution for both watching and recording your favourite TV shows? Design If someone hadn't told us that the 32LT75 had a Freeview Playback PVR hidden within its piano black walls,...
This TV/digital recorder offers nice images but blacks are too grayish. Rescaling of SD sources isn't excellent and we prefer leaving this job up to the DVD player.
- Integrated digital player (160 GB hard drive), - Very good colors, - Integrated TNT Tuner (although SD and not HD)
- Contrast and depth of black are too low (a recurrent defect on IPS panels), - Rescaling of SD sources slightly lacks sharpness (DVDs, etc.), - Narrow viewing angles
The 37LT75 renders HD with impressive precision and detailing for a non-full HD screen
Impressive recording ; Good price ; Easy to use
Average black levels ; Poor 1080p/24fps handling
Lastly, the set's audio is perfectly adequate, given how small its speakers are
If you're one of the many households in the UK that can't afford a Sky subscription, the LG 37LT75 may be the perfect upgrade for the impending digital age. Freeview Playback TVThe only real limitation of the 37LT75's Freeview Playback system is...
In case you're not familiar with Freeview Playback, it's a recording system designed by the people behind the Freeview terrestrial digital broadcasting platform to emulate much of the functionality provided for digital satellite channels by Sky+ boxes ...
Recordings on built-in HDD of very high quality, great price, good operating system, excellent standard def pictures
Black levels could be better, 1080p/24 handling is poor
This TV/digital recorder offers nice images but blacks are too grayish. Rescaling of SD sources isn't excellent and we prefer leaving this job up to the DVD player.
- Integrated digital player (160 GB hard drive), - Very good colors, - Integrated TNT Tuner (although SD and not HD), - Nice colors, - Good rescaling of SD sources, - Original design, - The panel's excellent response time, - Nice colors, - Good ...
- Contrast and depth of black are too low (a recurrent defect on IPS panels), - Rescaling of SD sources slightly lacks sharpness (DVDs, etc.), - Narrow viewing angles, - Digital tuner incompatible with HD, - Design may turn some away, - Black could be ...
The 42LT75 is a very accomplished HD performer
Freeview Playback works superbly ; Good value ; Good pictures ; Nice set of features
Second digital tuner weakens signal ; Limited viewing angle
It's hard to imagine how all the recording/pausing/rewinding/forwarding/series link functions of this Freeview Playback TV could have been integrated any better. Even die-hard technophobes should be recording away to their heart's content within ...
LG's 42LT75 is the UK's first TV to meet the Freeview Playback standard, offering digital recording, similar to Sky+, but with the Freeview broadcast service. FeaturesBefore we get into the 42LT75's Freeview Playback stuff, let's get a couple of...
It's LG's second Freeview Playback LCD TV, but is it as accomplished as its first?
While LG's second Freeview Playback TV perhaps inevitably hasn't caused as much of a stir around the TrustedReviews offices as the first one did, the 37LT75 is still a very accomplished, feature laden and easy to use little number that simply cries ...
The HDD built into the 37LT75 is a healthy size at 160GB - enough, LG claims, to hold up to 57 hours of digital TV recordings. Back in December we looked and very much liked the UK's first Freeview Playback TV: LG's 42in 42LT75. What this means in...
For the past few years digital TV has been a hare and tortoise race between Sky and Freeview.Sky, of course, is the hare. It has raced ahead with innovation after innovation, with both life-changing hardware like the Sky+ and Sky HD boxes, and forward ...
Freeview Playback system works well, Good 720p image
Black levels could be better, Limited viewing angle, Can't record two digital channels
A fairly good flatscreen overall, but it's the Freeview Playback that really sets it apart from the pack
