LG PG70 Series

Great value for money, considering the screen size., Natural picture with excellent motion clarity., Photo playback via USB

No headphone output., High power consumption., External light sources brighten the screen significantly., Flat-looking picture for bright images (in ski tournaments, for example)., Gray side bars for 4:3-format pictures cannot be switched to black.,...

If you're looking for a cheap plasma TV with a respectable, 50-inch picture, you can't go wrong with the LG 50 PG 7000. Unfortunately, however, the high power consumption bitters the taste of the budget price.

Big picture at a little price ; looks great ; exhaustive specification ; detailed, colourful image ; solid sound and off-air pictures

Black levels could be better ; hints of noise at times

At this price – and we've seen it cheaper – we find it hard to find much fault with such a well-specified, solid performer

We started this review by mentioning the value for money associated with LG’s displays, and it’s not too surprising that we end it in much the same way. The LG 60PG7000, unsurprisingly, cannot escape the limitations necessitated by its attractive price...

Looks nice.

Gobbles electricity like it was free.

Looks great

Screen failure after a couple of weeks, had to be replaced. TV goes into shut-down mode for 10 minutes after it is switched off. Adiou from radio channels stops after 3 mins. TV cannot produce true black, more of a dark grey.

Unbelievable value for money for such a good looking screen.

At this price you can't expect perfection and it probably isn't the very best picture quality... Still, it's very good and certainly good enough for me. You'd expect to double, possibly even triple the cost if you want to go for top end picture quality.

Good Picture Quality overall Good design

No bluetooth for transfering videos and pictures

Great picture and the actual TV on it's own sound is good - although we got a home cinema system too as much better base - great value for money - we have Samsung TV's which were in the same pricerange but their sound is not good....

Collects dust like a magnet.....

Beutiful design, with a single flat glass screen and the impression of only being half an inch thick. The picture in high definition is exceptional and in normal definition very good. I have it plugged in to my Hi Fi but the sound from the set is just...

Very Heavy it needed two men to lift it onto the bracket, otherwise I cannot think of any bad points.
