LG 42LB5D - 42" LCD TV - widescreen - 1080p (FullHD) - HDTV - gloss black Review

I'd have my 42" tv for about 3 months now and was originally nervous when purchased because of issues others have faced. I've had none thus far. Picture quality is excellent. It is a very versatile set equipped with 3 hdmi ports, 2 component ports, and 2 av ports as well as a computer hook up for video and sound too.

I don't own a surround sound system/receiver and find this to be all I need with some alterations to the custom sound settings. Currently I have plugged into it: HD DVR (HDMI), dvd player (component), ps2 (Av), I also switch between plugging my ipod and my vcr into the second av port, plus I also hook up my laptop to watch programming over that too. (MLB.TV works nicely through it I must say). I'm rather impressed with the picture quality for all of these items even if almost all of them are not viewed in true 1080p, especially the PS2 which I have seen distorted on other sets. So what I mean by saying this is - don't worry if the rest of your tech is a bit outmoded, it will still work fine, there is no need to run out and buy everything else (though I highly recommend moving to blue-ray when their price comes down if you get used to watching movies in HD).

Update: year and a half later still going strong.
