55LM4600 Amazing Value! Likely not true 120hz though.,
I love many things about this TV but one of my favorite features is the built-in picture calibration tool. With proper calibration this TV looks just as good if not better than my Samsung LCD. With 3D Bluray content this TV is fantastic. The 2d to 3d conversion is neat but nowhere close to the quality of true 3d content. Also, it’s nice that “movie theater” glasses work with this set. I notice very little motion blur but LGs claim of 120 hz is likely bogus. Apparently this model and several others LG put out are actually 60hz panels that they cycle the LEDs on and off to claim “Trumotion 120 hz”. I spoke with LG directly and they claim 120hz is “always on” for this TV, but there are no menu settings or controls for the Trumotion. You will NOT get the soap opera effect from this TV, but to me that is a good thing, though I realize some people will be disappointed with this. The HDGURU website has a great article on LGs claim of 120 hz on its review of a similar TV the 55lm6700 called “When 120 Hz isn’t 120Hz”. Anyway, this was not a deal breaker for me as this TV has such a great picture and the 3d is amazing. (By the way passive 3d sets like this model don’t have to have 120 hz as they are using polarization to display two separate images as opposed to cycling images for active shutter glasses). The sound on my set is fine but I ended up getting the TVee 25 soundbar from Boston Acoustics because I wanted the extra punch that a subwoofer adds. On another note I bought this TV from Walmart for 849 before Christmas and it subsequently went down to 799 an unbelievable value for this set, strangely cheaper than the non-3D “LS” version of this set. It is a myth that these retailers get inferior sets. As long as the model numbers are the same go for the lowest price you can find with a retailer you feel comfortable dealing with. I usually buy most of my gear through Amazon but unfortunately they didn’t have this set available when I was in the market for a new TV. If you already have all the “smart” gear and just want a fantastic LED TV with the ability to watch 3D content you can’t go wrong with this set.

Tried 4 Different TVs & This one is the Keeper!,
Went through 4 TVs before I landed on this 55″ LG LED 55LM4600. Initially bought a very inexpensive Element brand 46″ LCD 60Hz. Picture was just OK and the menus and input/output ports were sorely lacking. Also, I could never make it work with my Harmony Remote properly. Not a keeper. Next was an LG 50″ 1080p Plasma. Great picture but the screen was simply way too glossy. I could not stand seeing the lights reflecting in the screen during the entire movie! Back it went. Next TV was an Insignia from Best Buy. 55″ LED 120Hz. Tons of inputs and outputs. Very nice picture but had major “soap opera effect”. Every scene looked “fake”. Not sure how else to describe it but even my wife noticed it. I tried really hard to ignore it but it really did drive me crazy. Changing the motion settings in the menu did not seem to make any difference. Best Buy took it back. (super-great company by the way – very nice and easy to work with!) Next bought a Panasonic 55″ Plasma (ST30) but the Sears store where I went to buy it had been playing the CARS movie non-stop on all their display TVs for 3 months. I was buying the display model (on super sale) and the DVD Title Menu was completely burned into the screen so I passed on that one too. However, sitting right next to it was the LG 55LM4600 55″ LED (also on sale). The picture looked fantastic and I brought that one home instead. I could not be happier. Excellent picture, brighter than any plasma I looked at. No “soap opera effect”, no ghosting. Very clear and crisp. I’m not a huge sports fan so I cannot testify to refresh but I have not noticed any blurring on any shows. Even the “ticker” at the bottom of the screen on news stations look fine to me. Screen is not as matte as the Insignia but still very little in the way of reflection. Works perfect with my Harmony 600 remote and Sony 590 Blu-Ray player. Menus are easy to use (remote is very nice). Comes with 4 pair of 3D glasses too. Finally found the keeper!

AWESOME!,
I will say, before purchasing the TV, I read countless reviews of other TVs out there. I had a 42″ I was looking to replace, but I don’t want to be dropping money on a new TV every few years. I wanted to make sure I picked something that would last. So here I am.
I purchased this for a few reasons. The price, 3D (honestly didnt care much about this) and the reviews. LG has a good overall review for most of their TV products and coming from the “low” end of pricing, it seemed like a good choice. Also, based on value per inch of screen, I chose this one.
After receiving it a few days ago, I must say this TV is AWESOME! It looks great. Converts 2D-3D if you want (looks alright). Colors are great and has options to modify if needed.
Now with that said, I will give you some pros/cons I have seen so far:
Pros:
Price
4 Sets of 3D Glasses
3D that looks AWESOME
Size of the screen
Thinness
USB port you can plug things in like flash drive to see pix etc.
Divx Support
Supports WiFi/LAN
Easy to use remote
Small bezel
Easy to learn and use (settings, etc)
Wall mountable
Cons:
This sells as a 120hz TruMotion, but in reality, it is a 60hz TV with some “tweaks”.
Only 3 HDMI (I need more)
The manual states it needs 4 inches of “breathing room” so that killed the flat against the wall mount idea.
There seems to be some ghosting on some 3D, but maybe it’s a settings thing I haven’t figured out yet.
No customization naming for the ports such as HDMI, etc. It does have some preset ones you can choose from.
Some have complained of audio. I feel it compares to many others out there and it shouldn’t be that big of a deal. I think it sounds great/loud. When I want to listen/watch a movie, I use a receiver/speakers, as you should as well.
I had an issue with shipping as well. Heads up, of course depending on the seller, you may need to schedule a delivery date and time. I was sent a general email that the TV was shipped and given a tracking number but it didn’t correspond with regular shippers. I had to contact the seller to get the shipper and then found out that they tried an old number to contact me and since they couldn’t contact me, they had send me a postcard for a time. I was able to contact the shipper and get it fixed, but there wasn’t any info that stated all that was going to happen.
Overall, this TV is a great buy and product and you will not be unhappy with.
