LG 60PS80

Superb suite of interactive features including Netflix, Vudu, Yahoo Widgets, and YouTube; accurate color; extensive picture controls including a unique Picture Wizard; solid connectivity with four HDMI and one PC input; beautiful styling

Produces relatively light black levels; cannot properly process 1080p/24 content with consistency; exhibits some temporary image retention; no S-Video input

Despite image quality a notch or two below competing plasmas, the LG PS80 series will win over shoppers who prioritize built-in video streaming.

LG 60PG60 review

Highly accurate primary colors in THX mode ; solid video processing ; superb feature set with numerous picture controls ; fine connectivity with four HDMI and one PC input ; beautiful external design

Less accurate color decoding and grayscale in THX mode ; produces lighter blacks than the best plasmas

Although its THX mode isn't as accurate as we'd like to see, the massive LG 60PG60 60-inch plasma TV still delivers a good picture.

Although CNET did not review the 60-inch LG 60PG60, we did review the 50-inch LG 50PG60. Judging from their spec sheets, the two LG plasma HDTVs are basically identical but for screen size, so we expect the review of the 50-incher to give a good...

LG 50PG60

By David Katzmaier

The LG 50PG60 is the second of two HDTVs we've reviewed with THX display certification, and it proves that even the three letters formerly associated with George Lucas can't guarantee picture quality parity. The first such THX-certified TV, Panasonic ...

Expensive ; less accurate color decoding and grayscale in THX mode ; produces lighter blacks than the best plasmas ; some false contouring

Design Externally the LG 50PG60 cuts an elegant figure that's completely at odds with the company's ostentatious "Scarlet" models, such as the 47LG60. The LG 50PG60 is the second of two HDTVs we've reviewed with THX display certification, and it...

LG 60PS80 Plasma HDTV First Impressions Review - Intro

By Jeremy Stamas

The LG 60PS80 is an awe-inspiring television-mainly due to its 60-inch plasma screen. The TV also has a host of media features that should intrigue a variety of consumers. It features NetCast, which is an internet media streaming system that is ...

The LG 60PS80 has a big plasma screen and images generally looked great on the screen. We did notice some motion artifacting on the TV, but we weren't sure if it was a problem with the display model due to its being a pre-production model. The NetCast ...

LG 50PG60

Plasma HDTVs may be losing to LCD sets in the consumer popularity contest, but a recent increase in sales of 50-inch and larger plasmas highlights the solid values these big-screen panels offer. LG's 50-inch 50PG60 ($2,699.95 list) 1080p plasma ...

Excellent detail with HD sources. Comprehensive picture controls. Attractive design. Swivel-base stand

THX picture preset could be better optimized. Weak picture contrast compared with similar models

The LG 50PG60's 1080p plasma HDTV delivers a detailed high-definition picture, but its color and contrast lag behind the competition.

LG's 50-inch 50PG60 ($2,699.95 list) 1080p plasma delivers a detailed HD picture, but its picture contrast and overall color quality aren't on a par with the best TVs we've seen this year. The baton-style remote is identical to the capable remote...
