Very happy with my Purchase!
I did my research for about 3 weeks before buying a LED TV Starte out looking for a cheap LCD around 700 buck but for only 300 more I got this beauty!
The Cnet Review was very helpful as well as the reviews here in AMAZON!
I had some doubt about the issue some customers presented about the Sound delay.. But I asked some LG technicians online and they assured me that 2010 models already had this issue worked out.. and Ideed!
amazing Picture Quality in my case this TV is better than the SL90 for a couple of reasons:
-first LH90 screen is non reflective (at least not as much as the glass the SL90 has on front)
-this TV its an BAcklight LED not an EDGE Lit as the SL90, because of this it has better blacks.
- plenty of conections!
-I didnt gave it 5 star on sound not because it has a bad sound (actually its amazin hoy they can recreate dolby surround!! you can hear thigs comming through your back) its just that in order to enjoy any movie its better to have a Home Theater which Im pourchasing next! a Yamaha that is for sale in amazon!
Couldnt be hapier with my Purchase,If anybody needs any

THX Certified Says It All

| Review Date: May 31, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Chad A. Hasselius, |
I read in the online reviews that LG had the lowest priced LED backlit HDTVs, and I also read they were some of the highest quality LCD Tvs on the market- probably second to Samsung. So I knew this is what I was looking for.
As others have pointed out, it was packed very well and delivered flawlessly. It has a large bezel around the TV so it has a rather large footprint for a 42" TV. And it has good sound for a TV, so good that an external soundbar would probably be a waste.
It has a number of features you wouldn't think about a TV having:
-XD Engine to upscale lower definition video to look better on your high definition TV
-"Smart Volume" Auto Volume Leveler for those jarring commercial breaks
-"True voice" makes voice dialog more crisp sounding
-Dolby Digital 5.1 decoder with ability to downmix it for the TV's 2 integrated (and hidden) speakers
Last, but not least, this TV is THX certified for high picture quality. Only a handful of TVs are THX certified.
As [...] puts it: "THX certified displays are tested to ensure they meet or exceed specifications in two areas. One is picture quality--device performance, in THX's words--and includes minimum specs for things like black levels, contrast, color gamut, brightness, resolution and uniformity. The other is "signal" (or video) processing, which includes things like sharpness, noise reduction, overscan, motion compensation and deinterlacing. All certified TVs are tested to make sure they meet or exceed minimum standards."
As [...] puts it: "Inside THX's test lab, we observed their array of test signals and procedures. In addition to the legacy test signals we and other reviewers use to evaluate HDTVs, THX created some of their own patterns. THX tests signal processing, deinterlacing, color points, black levels and white levels among others criteria. They perform additional testing of display properties that are generally too time consuming or require special test equipment the HD Guru and our fellow reviewers don't possess."
My personal test of whether a TV is high quality or not is while looking at them in the store some of them will have a pixelated, blocky look to the picture when looking up close. This one doesn't. The picture is as sharp up close as it is from far back. The only negative I can think of is that it doesn't turn on instantly. It takes about 20 seconds to boot up and turn on after you have hit the power button. |

Brief review of LG 42LH90
|
| Review Date: May 4, 2010 |
| Reviewer: Walt Wagner, Raleigh, NC |
| There are more detailed reviews before this one so I choose not to be redundant. Set-up is easy and the remote is simple and easy to use. This LCD has full array LED backlighting. The real thin LED sets are using edge lighting with diffusers. They are OK but the light is not always evenly dispersed. It appears more mfgs are using edge lighting since it is probably less costly to produce and the sets are much thinner. Either way, the LCD sets with LED backlighting give you an amazing picture. Sound quality is average as most of thr newer sets seem to be designed for use with a separate sound system. The frame of the 42LH90 is not as narrow as other sets thus making it look king of bulky for a 42 inch set. The pedestal mount that comes with the unit is somewhat wobbly. It is a buyers market right now so you should be able to get a local retailer to offer the set for the same price as on line. I did. Expect to pay $1000 to $1100 right now (early May 2010). That's not much money for a 42 inch LED, 1080p, 120Hz(quasi 240Hz) HDTV. |
