Honest review (from a gamer perspective),
LG Electronics 42LN5400 42-Inch 1080p 120Hz LED-LCD HDTV
Design – Plastic stand and cabinet material. Nothing special compared to most models but does the job. The thin bezels helps the look of the TV.
Sound – TV provides plenty of volume and the software features help overall sound quality. On the downside, it sounds like mono rather than stereo. I recommend getting a sound system for it.
Backlighting – The direct LED backlighting makes this TV very bright and looks pretty good in well lit rooms. However, the deep blacks are not dark enough for low lit rooms. Also, the backlight is slightly uneven but but that’s normal for LED TV’s. If this is a concern, I recommend buying a plasma display.
Viewing angles – It has wide viewing angles. After 40 degrees, picture gets dimmer. That’s pretty good for a LED TV.
Refresh rate – This is a tough one. Despite what other reviewers said, this TV is 120hz. However, the motion interpolation (TruMotion) is set to low at the factory and the menu will not give you an option to turn it off or make the settings go higher. This is a good thing because it minimizes the “soap opera effect” when watching film base movies and drama shows. There’s still some motion blurring on content that run below 30FPS but any video or games running 48FPS or faster look really good.
Connections – 2 HDMI 1.4 inputs will get you by. The 1 USB port is a plus but it’s only good for photos and music, not video or software updates. Good internal digital antenna too.
Input lag – This TV is one of the best TV’s for gaming due to its low input lag. I read somewhere that it measures at 8.3 ms. That is pretty quick even compared to higher-end models.
Extra features – The TV is pretty basic. Not a Smart TV so don’t expect more than basic video and audio controls. Not a 3D TV too.
In conclusion, the 42ln5400 model is a very good buy for $430 or less (as of November 2013). I highly recommend it if you are on a budget looking for a 42 inch LED. As a gamer, this TV is perfectly priced and well suited for the new PS4 and XBOX1 consoles. I would give it 5 stars if LG gave the option to control the TruMotion settings.
