LG 55LHX LCD HDTV First Impressions Review - Intro

 

The 55LHX is a 55-inch LCD HDTV from LG that has a number of interesting features and specs. First, it offers a solution to cable-clutter by instituting a wireless transmission media box that can send an uncompressed 1080p signal to the TV from up to...

The most impressive aspect of the LG 55LHX is its wireless connectivity features with its media box. It will surely attract people with lots of peripheral media devices and who are concerned about the abundance of cables that comes with them. Since the...

LG 55LHX Review – 55-inch LCD HDTV

 

With a thickness of only 1 inch, LG joins the league of super-slim LCD panels with the launch of its new 55LHX model. The giant 55-inch LCD HDTV with its super-slim black bezel outlook is sure to catch the attention of the onlooker even when the LCD is...

Extremely Happy!

 

Picture is killer, multiple HDMI Inputs, wireless picture allows me to use the wireless transmitter over by my DVD and VCR without a set of cables visible

Originally had to have an LG tech out to change the wireless receiver in the video screen

Educate Yourself

 

If you are a person who doesnt go all OCD on your TV. this is the perfect TV for your.

THE CLEAREST TV HANDS DOWN.. ITS GORGEOUS

The Dirty screen effect which everyone talks about bugged the heck out of me and i returned it. Had i not read about the issue i prob would have never noticed it. But once i saw the issue.. I spent hours calibrating the LEDs and it helped.. but didnt...

Nice picture, horrible Media Box

 

Like i said this tv is great, however, the media box could make you wish you never bought the thing. If it didn't mean shipping it back to Newegg i would probably return mine. Oh and for some reason the options for the onboard fifth hdmi connection on...

The picture is beautiful, the blooming effect that many complain of is minimal head on and only slightly annoying during certain scenes at off angle viewing positions. The blacks are as deep as i have ever seen them, with the LED switching doing a...

The media box is a joke and is the Achilles heel of this television. When it works it does a great job, however, it is extremely finicky about where it wants to be placed. It cant be anywhere behind the tv, as i'm guessing the receiver is in the front...

serious flaw buyer beware

 

see cons.....

black level matte screen viewing angle

severe dse (DIRTY SCREEN EFFECT) this is within the panel itself and cannot be resolved w/out having a swap which LG is looking the other way on. lg killed this set within a few months only after coming out w/ it

LHX update

 

Very nice black levels. Attractive thin panel and base

I have had two different sets with the same "dirty screen" issues that others on here have mentioned. Too bad, as this set would be awesome without this very noticable issue. Tru-Motion on this set is pretty much unusable . I first posted a favorable...

LG 55" Class (54.6" Diag.) 1080p 240Hz LED-LCD TV 55LHX

 

Don't get me wrong. This is one of the top sets you can buy at any price. If it was working properly and didn't have a defective panel it would have been the best set I have ever owned. Unfortunately it had major issues and I was left with a $79 hole...

Stunning picture quality, brightness, and black levels. Wireless media box is great and worked very well for me. Amazing value

Similarly to many on a related forum who purchased this set from Newegg during the holiday sale, my screen had very noticeable dark rings on light scenes. It is sometimes referred to as the "DIRTY SCREEN EFFECT." In addition, the firmware on the set I...

Jury still out. I will update based on outcome.

 

I strongly recommend that potential buyers and those who have already bought this set do some searching for knowledge resources on this set before and after buying to maximize the capabilities of this set. It has the potential to be the best, bar none,...

Outstanding black levels. Outstanding colors. Matte screen is the best on the market for daylight heavy viewing. Best angle of viewing for back lit LED that I know of. Wireless option can be useful but you can also wire the set to the media box. If you...

LG firmware update is a major hassle to address a few known issues with the set centered around Tru-motion settings. Some people have received displays that have mura, a spotty inconsistent artifact visible when panning on a white background like...

N/A poster at 12/30/2010 9:47:41 AM I had the similar issue to what you describe where the bezels hide a portion of the signal content. After pressing -> Input -> Input Labels (blue button) -> and labeling my HDMI input source from my PC as PC...

Same as original post, see below

Temporary shrinking of picture to picture in picture size 8 1/2 x 11 has been confirmed through repeated tests as being created by the cable box (cable box needs to be on AND delivering a signal prior to TV being turned on) ; Here's something...
