LG 60LB5900

 

LG's LB5900 series of low-cost HDTVs offer a bright, sharp picture, but are held back by limited features, poor contrast ratio, and just two HDMI ports.

Attractive. Bright panel. Good color accuracy and picture quality.

Poor black levels and contrast ratio. Only two HDMI ports. No connected features.

Conclusion The LG 47LB5900's attractive gray exterior sets it apart, but the screen's excellent color accuracy can't make up for one of the worst contrast ratios we've measured. And the lack of connected features coupled with just two HDMI ports makes...

DOA - Twice!

 

After all was said and done, I decided to look up the model from other buyers and found that it was a common problem. There were even allegations from people rating it highly being fake, I wouldn't be surprised.

Newegg has lovely customer service

Television arrived with an invisible crack on the inside of the LCD that wasn't noticeable until the set was turned on. It was really bad and the display was barely legible. Newegg was quick to offer a replacement ; The replacement was even worse. It...

Poor Durability

 

I bought this TV as a second monitor to compliment my Phillips 50" LCD. On initial set up the tv wouldn't recognize the display input. After about 2 hours I got it running, and it worked. It was fine as long as I didn't move it. Now 6 months later I...

When I did finally gt it set up, it had a decent picture

Setting up was a pain. Didn't work the first time I turned it on. Very fragile. Unsolvable issue

Good Value TV

 

FYI, lowering backlight seems to help with the edge shadowing and dark artifacting. Here are some of the settings that worked best for me. Start by selecting APS preset. Then disable dynamic contrast, but put dyamic colors on medium. Set energy saving...

This is a big value size tv, sure its not a smart 3d tv or 4k, but its also 200 to 1000 dollars cheaper then those tv's. It is 1080P however, and its cheaper and lighter then a plasma. The contrast is amazing on this tv , it gets very bright, so bright...

While the tv is crisp, clear, bright, and colorful, the black level is not as good as a plasma but its not bad. And while this is only noticable on a dark screen, I notice backlight artifacting on the bottom of the screen, again not noticable when lit....

Pretty good for the price

 

No complaints so far, very good for the price, satisfied. Was kinda having second thoughts after I read some negative reviews regarding color contrast, black not being perfect black, etc. but I think these are technicalities. If calibration done right,...

This was my first flatscreen LCD, so I didn't wanna spend too much money on it ; Very easy and quick to set up ; Decent picture quality ; Picture calibration quick and easy

Only 2 HDMI ports ; The 2 near edge stands make it unsuitable for narrow tables;Should have a center stand

Excellent TV

 

My first unit arrived with the screen completely shattered. Newegg was prompt in getting me a replacement, and I had it within a week. I was originally going to get a smaller smart TV, but when I saw this one on sale I figured I'd just get it and a...

Responsive and vibrant display ; Sound is great, can get louder than I'd ever need it to be ; Very light for a 60 inch

Very limited angle of control. I can point the remote precisely at the center of the screen from 10 feet away, and most of the time it won't respond. My guess is that the receiver is underneath the LG logo on the front, so you usually need to have the...

Absolutely Love This TV

 

Purchased this television set about 5 months ago. Have encountered no problems or issues. The picture is excellent. When we plan on buying a 2nd television set for our home, we are going with a LG
