LG 42” TV (Available Free with selected Mobile Phones)
With a diagonal screen width of 42” the LG 42” is a mammoth machine. The LG 42” is competitively priced and you can find one priced between £499 and £549 on the high street or in online stores. The defining features of the LG 42” are its anti motion blur technology (600Hz technology) and 1080p HD ready screen.
Clear picture
The LG 42” has a contrast ratio of 2000000:1 which makes for clear and sharp viewing images. The LG 42” also has the option to use a 16:9 format (otherwise known as widescreen) so you can view films in their authentic original condition. The picture quality in televisions is generally stated by the brightness of the screen, the brighter the screen, the better the picture quality. The LG 42” has a brightness of 1500 cd/m2 which is above average for most televisions of the same specs. The contrast is also important when buying a television as the picture quality also depends on interaction between the brightness and contrast. The LG 42” has a contrast of 2000000:1. Another good feature of the LG 42” is the flat screen. As the screen is flat, there is no curvature and therefore no distortion of the picture.
Built in Features
The LG 42” comes with a built in digital tuner (more commonly known as a Free View box) which means you can get all the extra channels such as BBC 3, ITV2, BBC News 24, E4 and CBBC. This is a bonus as it means you’ll be all ready for when the digital switchover happens in 2012 and won’t have to buy an extra Free View box.
Another built in extra is the parental controls and the child lock, especially good for keeping out children late at night when unsuitable programmes are being shown.
The LG 42” comes with a stand so you can use and display it on a table or counter. It can also be wall mounted for space saving in a crowded room. When the LG 42” is wall mounted it can be turned in many different angles which is a bonus as you can angle it to suit your viewing position.
The LG 42” also comes with a fully functioning remote (controlling the TV and DVD player). The remote enables the user to have quicker access to Ceefax and Teletext as it incorporates a ‘fast text’ option.
Sound Quality
The LG 42” has dual speakers with SRS TruSurround XT Technology which means you’ll get a more rounded sound experience. A built in headphone jack also enables you to watch the LG 42” in private without disturbing others with the television noise.
Things to consider
The LG 42” is only HD ready, in the future you’ll have to buy a HD box to get full HD on HD channels.
Being 42” diagonally, this is a huge television and will dominate most of a small room.
