Flat screen prices are falling apace these days, and 3D TVs are following suit. Take LG 3D 47LM6200 for example, it is available today for just P75K, which is an astounding drop over last two months ago when it was released at price over P100K. This LG might not be cheap, but it’s the most affordable 47” 3D TV yet, and it has terrific features and performance.
This LM6200 is something of a looker. There’s certainly an elegant design, boasting with slim bezel and dramatic “floating metal ribbon stand”. ‘Invisible speakers’ add to the look, with two 10watts speakers powered by LG’s sound zooming technology, which promises a greater level of sound immersion. The cabinet conveniently comes with a swivel which enables a 10 degrees movement from left to right.
Its specs include smart device that supports all the key players, including Netflix, iPlayer, Facebook, Twitter, ESPN, and YouTube along with around 1500 other applications. It has a built Media playback via USB and networked devices over built-in Wifi. The connectivity is abundant. It has 4 HDMI/HDCP and 3 USB ports located at the side. All other ports are located at the rear side: the RF antenna port, AV input, Component Video and Audio input, digital Audio output, RGB input, PC Audio input, and the Ethernet port.
47LM6200 is an Edgelit LED that claims to have local dimming feature which allows the screen to dim independent sections of the screen, thus providing more control of the brightness and darkness for some areas of the screen. Inside the TV, you’ll find latest of processing technologies and picture-enhancement features: Triple XD Video Engine that aims to bring the highest level of color, clarity and contrast; intelligent sensor that works to automatically optimize the picture in accordance with the room’s lighting and color conditions; LG's unique motion-controlled Magic Remote that allows you to enjoy an intuitive, easy way to access limitless internet content, customizable apps, videos and browse the web all organized in a simple-to-use interface. Magic Wand remote is basically a point and click wand type. It uses motion control similar to wireless videogame controllers. The downside of it though is that it makes switching the input a little difficult for the not-so-techie kinds of people.
For 3D rendering side, the LG incorporates the latest Cinema 3D technology, which promises to eliminate flicker or judder present. There’s also the usual 2D to 3D conversion feature that enables the user to adjust the 2D content into 3D effect, but what impresses is the new LG 3D Depth Control that has the ability to increase the 3D depth. Another add-on in this department is the “Dual Play” gaming, which enables gamers to enjoy two-player gaming on a split screen, and present it as two separate images simultaneously. To be able to view the “Dual Play” image, the gamers are required to wear a separate pair of special eyeglass, which is available for another purchase.
LG produces the picture that’s incredibly punchy and vibrant, while also displaying impressively deep blacks. We put on Blu-ray
Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance and the torch flames of Rider burn brightly, with yellows and reds appearing piercing and extremely convincing. Even during night scenes, the LG shows good contrast levels to deliver decent black shades and clean whites. While there is some softness to the edges of the rocky and sandy terrain, we find the overall picture still high in detail and sharpness.
TrueMotion 120Hz works great with fast action scenes, but it’s not as stellar with film based content, and so we recommend switching this off to eliminate ‘soap opera effect’ picture quality. Nonetheless, without TruMotion, Rider’s motorcycle chasing scene fast motion is still tracked faithfully.
Cable viewing has a similar story. From live news broadcast to filmed TV series, the picture is decent, with very minimal screen noise to spoil the presentation. There’s a good detail, though not as pinch sharp, supplemented by fine depth of field. Colors are rich and vibrant that never appear overcooked.
Switch to 3D confirms that this LG is an accomplished performer. There’s no denying detail levels fall away a little, but 3D effect is smooth and convincing. There’s no noticeable crosstalk, and so 3D films don’t require wide-eyed concentration to watch. Image color remains rich with full of vitality, contrast is striking luster and outright black. The passive 3D glasses, which come in 3 pairs, provide comfort and relaxing to watch. Unlike the active glass that dim out the brightness, the passive glass continues to accept bright image that provides more pleasing 3D viewing.
So, there you have it: yet another fine 3D TV. If you’re in the market for an all rounder TV at a budget price, we recommend buying this 47LM6200. It does everything you could reasonably demand, including the pleasure of watching movie in 3D.
