Product Description
Displays HDTV programs in full 1920 x 1080p resolution for a more detailed picture.Unlike other sensors which can only sense brightness of ambient light, LG's "Intelligent Sensor" uses 4,096 sensing steps to evaluate its surroundings. Using a sophisticated algorithm, the LG processes picture quality elements including brightness, contrast, color, sharpness and white balance. The result is a picture optimized for it's surroundings, more pleasing to watch and which can also save up to 50% in power consumption.The AV Mode optimizes the picture into Cinema, Sports, and game Mode according to the video and audio content. The viewer has the ability to quickly choose the correct mode for the picture they are viewing.Automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of human voice frequency range to help keep dialog audible when background noise swells.This TV contains the detailed calibrations necessary for professional certification by the Imaging Science Foundation. The resulting ISF "day" and "night" modes will then be accessible by the user to experience the best their LG HDTV has to offer.

Summary: Great Hi-def television! 2008-07-05
Comment: I looked at the Scarlet series but for the price this was a great value. I really like the clear voice feature - it makes a big difference. Easy installation. I would rather have a matte surround because the glossy reflects light. The HD is fabulous! I would definitely recommend to friends.

Summary: One of the best investments I've ever made 2008-07-01
Comment: I did many weeks' worth of research online regarding HDTVs, since I was in the market for one. I have had this TV for a few weeks now and the quality is nothing short of absolutely fantastic. I bought a PS3 right around the same time and playing video games and viewing Blu-Ray movies is just spectacular. In the evening, if there are no lights on except for the TV, it's better than being at the movie theater!
I bought the 37" because with all the features included with it (and it supporting 1080p), the price really couldn't be beat. That and when I was at the store comparing them, it just looked more brilliant and bright compared to the similar Samsung 37" right beside it (plus it was $200 cheaper). When I took it back to my apartment, I was blown away by how large it really is; they don't look so large in-store when they're near the 46" and 52" TVs!
Setup is pretty simple. Didn't take too long, though the screws for the base of the TV stand are set a bit deep, so it was a little tough to fully tighten them in. Something else that left a bit more to be desired is the sound. If you don't have a home theater system already (which I don't), you may be cranking the volume up more than you normally would.
All in all, this HDTV is incredible. Be sure you do your research, but I doubt you'll be disappointed with this one!

Comment: We really like the LG TV. The swivel stand is great for our use. It was easy to set up. The only negative thing is that the plastic sides & top of the TV glare. The screen does not, but why have the sides and top shine and reflect room or outside light?

Summary: Fantastic Picture for a Great Price. 2008-05-30
Comment: I have had my LG for about 2 weeks. I did about 2 weeks of research before purchasing it. I wanted to replace the 30" Olevia in my bedroom that is a little too small. I measured my armoire and had room for most 37" flat screens. My criteria for a new set was size and I wanted 1080P. My research included the JVC LT-37X688, the Toshiba REGZA 37RV530U and the Samsung LN37A550. I decided on getting the LG mainly because of a couple of good reviews, LG makes many of the screens of the other manufacturers and because I could pick one up locally.
The actual unit is beautiful. It is shipped with off the stand. One complaint I have about the stand is that you stick it inside the bottom of the TV and you screw it into the back. The screws are set so deep that although I thought they were in, 2 have fallen out. It doesn't really effect the TV though that the screws fell out. This is the third LCD TV I have unpacked and it was the only one not shipped with the stand on.
Picture out of the box is amazing. There are several preset modes that you can choose that effect picture and sound. These can be tweaked by the user. It also has a mode called Real Cinema that displays HD movies in 24 frames per second like they are shot in.
I have a PS3, Dish Network HD and a Toshiba Laptop with HD DVD and HDMI out that I have used with the TV without a problem. I am watching Live Free or Die Hard on the PS3 now and it looks stunning.
Besides the stand problem, there is one other thing I don't like. Like all flat screens now, the speakers are hidden behind the plastic benzel. Rumbling sound effects and low frequency sounds cause it to vibrate sometimes. This is more noticeable the closer you get to the TV. Some reviews of the 37" Samsung model I was looking at also mentioned this problem. Ironically, this is the reason I did not get the Sammy. This is why I give it a 4 star rating. Of course, if you are hooking to a surround system this complaint doesn't matter.
ADDENDUM I wanted to add that this LCD has the flat matte screen. No shiny glare like my CRT RPTV with the plexi-glass cover make movie viewing so much more enjoyable.

Summary: Excellent, Great Picture 2008-05-19
Comment: Updated June 17, 2008: This is our second flat-screen LG TV. We bought a bigger unit for downstairs and just picked this one up for the Master suite. We've hung it on the wall, using the HDMI connection. We love it.
Pro:
-Very light (~35 pounds) and super thin (~4")
-Remote is nice and feels good in my hand
-I like that the power button is on the front (cleverly hidden into a piece of the silver trim that runs along the bottom) and input, volume and channel can be changed from the right side/edge. This is handy when the remote goes missing or it's far away.
-Excellent black, and contrast. I personally think it produces the best (blackest) black, and doesn't wash out
-Rated for 60,000 hours of use (that's 2500 days if you left it on the whole time or 20.5 years if you watch it only 8 hours a day)
-3 HDMI connects, we are using 2, plus it does has USB 2.0 so it can power more advanced devices, presumably like "thumb drives" so that you can view digital photos (although we've not tried that yet)
-Fast and easy set-up/install (hung on the wall)
-Speakers are hidden
-In case it wasn't clearly described in the tech specs you've seen elsewhere, this is a 16:9 widescreen LCD HD 1080p TV (that's full high-definition)
-Warm up time is short, maybe 3 seconds or so
-Very wide viewing angle, looks great in a big space when seated to the side of the TV
-Good for Blu-Ray (although we don't have it... our DVD player does "upgrade" our DVD signal/picture, but it's not true Blue-Ray)
Con:
-Full sound, but in my opinion with the factory settings we didn't get as strong of a center channel as we would like, which usually contains the primary dialog. This led us to ramp up the volume to compensate and would not have been an issue if we were hooking into our stereo for surround sound. Since we did not do this, some trial and error with the sound settings was required for us to successfully mitigate this problem.
Neutral:
-Tip: when looking for a wall mount, don't pay more than about $75. This unit is light, and anything big and fancy is probably going to lead to a financial soaking!
-We haven't used the stand, sorry. It looks ok I guess, but can't review it since I haven't used it.
-Tip: I can't confirm this, however the HDMI cable box I got from my cable company responds much faster to channel changing that our other regular HD box did before we traded it in when we got our TV. The old box would randomly pause for 1-8 seconds as well. We've not had this problem with either HDMI cable box we've gotten.
-Tip: Play with your settings to get the best sound, don't rely on the factory settings.
Bottom line: The LG HDTV line is very good as a whole. This unit is no exception, it's awesome. We highly recommend it.
