Monster 84-inch LG LCD will be first with 4K resolution

When it arrives later this year, LG's 84LM9600 will be the first TV in the U.S. with a native resolution of 3,840x2,160 pixels -- four times that of current 1080p TVs.

LG LM9600 review: LG LM9600

LG LM9600

The ; TV is an incredibly striking piece of furniture with one of the slimmest bezels we've ever seen. Color reproduction is excellent, after a bit of tweaking. The Magic Motion controller has its quirks but is the best Smart TV navigator out there....

The LM9600 doesn't perform up to its flagship TV pricing or the expectations created by its full-array local-dimming backlight. Its black levels are significantly worse than those of last year's LG flagship, it suffers from blotchy uniformity, and in...

While it's got supermodel looks and pricing to match, the LG LM9600 is unfortunately only an amateur performer.

LG 55LM9600

The LG LM9600 series is an attractive and full-featured line of LED-backlit LCD HDTVs, but the picture quality isn't worth the high price.

Beautiful design. Plenty of online services and apps. Comes with six pairs of 3D glasses.

Expensive. Middling picture quality. Disappointing 3D.

The LG 55LM9600 is one of the most attractively designed HDTVs we've seen this year, but its high price and middling picture quality make it a much less appealing screen than both similarly priced and much less expensive HDTVs. The Samsung UN46ES8000F...

LG 84LM9600

The LG 84LM9600 certainly isn't lacking in size, as the 84-inch screen is currently the largest LCD to be available to customers in 2012. But the behemoth of a TV also has a 3,840×2,160 pixel resolution, which is four times the amount of pixels (4K) of...

The LG 84LM9600 is the largest in LG’s 9600 series and certainly has size in its favor with its 84-inch display. But LG also combined its new UD technology and Cinema 3D features with this TV. LG made it clear that the company, based on customer...

LG 60LM9600

The 60-inch LG 60LM9600, the second-largest installment of LG's LM9600 series, has a local dimming LED backlight and improved passive 3D technology. As it's a relatively high-end model, it's also decked out with the Smart TV platform, which includes a...

The 84-inch 84LM9600 got a lot of the press at CES, but rest of the LM9600 series has nothing to be ashamed of either. The LG 60LM9600 gets points for its thin 5mm bezel, dual-core processor and Smart TV suite. LG has improved its Magic Remote from...

LG 84LM9600 LCD Ultra HDTV

2D Performance 3D Performance Features

It’s rabbit season at the Sound & Vision ranch. The bunnies are reproducing at a torrid rate, and you can barely take aim at one before another dozen pop up.

LG 84LM9600

The picture quality of the LG 84LM9600 Ultra HD TV is definitely a major step up from the output of a high-end 1080p HDTV. The difference can be startling when playing 4K content. But even when comparing playback of Blu-rays, the LG's upscaling to 4K...

LG 84LM9600

Promising technology, but the lack of content and the cost need to be considered.

UHDTV content looks incredible on this TV; Audio was excellent, thanks to the 50-watt 2.2 speakers

You could buy a car for the price of this TV; There isn’t any UHDTV content available for consumers

First Looks: LG 84-inch LM9600 Ultra Definition Cinema 3D Smart TV

Will LG be able to justify the S$24,999 price tag for its 84-inch 4K-resolution mega screen? We took a ride down to LG's flagship store to give the huge screen a once-over as soon as it arrived. Here's our take.
