Consumer review (newegg.com)

Nice clear picture

 

For the money this is a nice TV.

Clear picture, VERY light weight, apps are just about best in the business. Has all of the connections that I was looking for and setup was a breeze. One good thing about LG is their apps and software are better than most. Just downloaded all of the...

In regards to the TV, none so far. Shipping was on time and fast, but was concerned with the box showed up beat to heck. Luckily the TV was ok no damage, but man that thing had a rough ride getting here

Reboot issue Fixed with fan

 

I have a different model than this one here but the had the same restarting loop happening. After the fan installed it stopped. Been at least 7 months now-- no problem.

Fairly nice picture

Reboots from chip inside not having enough ventilation ; I installed a USB powered fan over the chip which on my model as right inside the cabinet and above the RCA jacks. Drilled a pattern of small holes to vent the fan air pulling the heat outward....

Newegg and LG make this a great buy

 

If anyone says the picture does not look great they do not know how to turn off the eco settings on this TV. Which will make the picture dark if in low lighting settings. I suggest turning this off if you have an issue with the picture being too dark....

Great Picture, Great Price, overall great value. I wanted a smart TV with great picture for under $600, that's exactly what I got

I have to give it Con's in order to be honest with potential buyers/shoppers. the cord to plug in the TV is not very long, but if they plug/power strip is within a couple feet it should be fine

Good shopping experience

 

The entire shopping experience is good. But so far we could not use this product yet because there is problem for the cable company to connect this TV with the cable box. So not really have any using experience for the product.

LG 42LN5700

 

It's a great tv. Only very minor complaint since built in apps need a camera, you would figure that the tv would have a built in camera. Add on camera has to be LG brand camera which is expensive.
