Pros:
- Stereo interleaved lines are not noticeable for most 3D content and especially when seated at the recommended distance.

- Gyroscopic controller does make it easier to deal with menu selections.

- As with all micropolarized stereoscopic screens, side-ways off-axis viewing is excellent. Vertical offset will yield ghosting. But for normal viewing use this is unlikely to impact anyone.

- For the price it is an excellent display- especially since you are using the same polarized glasses as in the movie theaters.

- 2D image quality appears to be on par with other 65″ LCDs I have from Sharp. The only difference is that the screen is glossy because of the micropolarization overlay.

Cons:

- When you plug a laptop into it, there is noticeable lag. For example, when you move the mouse on the laptop there is a small lag to when the screen is refreshed. This is perhaps to be expected with most modern TVs that do so much internal processing. I am using it as my wall mounted monitor in my office so the lag is a bit annoying- especially for someone who’s primary business is computer graphics. To reduce the lag you can either plug in via the VGA connector or by turning down as much image processing as possible. If you do a search on AVS forum you’ll find suggestions on how to do that.
Update: it turns out, even if you use the HDMI input, you will dramatically reduce the lag if you go into the input labeling option and relabel it as PC. I guess the TV is trying to be intelligent.

- There is some inconsistencies in the backlight, but this is pretty good for a 65″ screen, especially when compared to screens with florescent back lights. Of course it is not as crisp as a plasma display. But then again it is also much lighter than a plasma screen, and you don’t have to buy the heavy 3D glasses.

- The support stand it comes with is incredibly wobbly- it is essentially a cheap piece of plastic that is about 3 inches across on each side. This tiny hollow neck is supposed to support and balance the weight of the entire LCD screen. A Bobble Head comes to mind. Except the head is the big LCD screen- scary! Get a wall mount.

Normally for large ticket displays I order them from local vendors so it’s easy to return. I had to order this from Amazon since the local vendors only had them on pre-order. The shipping company banged up the unit pretty badly. The top portion of the box was compromised when I received it. And the plastic frame around the display was dented. I took a picture just in case the unit didn’t work. Surprisingly the screen was not cracked and the display functioned fine. Normally this degree of impact will crack a display. Just an FYI…

LG 65LW6500 Best Buy

First off let’s put aside the fact that passive 3D cuts the resolution. You will not notice it unless you’re hunting for flaws. Anyone who says differently is just being a negative nancy. The 2D picture is amazingly crisp and clear. I compared this tv to Toshiba’s 55 inch 3dtv which boasts 240mHz. Lg’s 120mHz tv blows it away in picture quality and 3d depth. I only have two complaints: 1st, the stand is very flimsy and unstable. If you or your kids run through the house YOUR TV WILL SHAKE. I highly recommend mounting this one to a wall. 2nd, sometimes (only sometimes) when using the 2D to 3D conversion the picure and sound can be out of sync by half a second. I’ve only noticed it in broadcast, not on bluray.

LG 55LW5600 REVIEW

If you are considering purchasing a new TV, you would be making a HUGE mistake by not purchasing the LG 55LW6500 3D,LED,Internet Ready,240Hz,model. I just had mine delivered and set up by a neighborhood dealer and I am extremely pleased. This TV is simply magnificent. I love the passive 3D glasses ( my daughter accidently kept the 3D glasses from the last time we went to a movie theater and those glasses work on this TV), the matte screen which practically eliminates screen glare from my windows and lamps directly accross from the TV. The picture quality is superb. I was watching a baseball game the other day and was able to see the pitchers cleat marks on the pitchers mound. Before you think, why the heck do I want to see cleat marks , I’m merely trying to illustrate how clear the picture is.
I had some questons about the operation of the TV that I could not find in the use and care manual, so I called LG customer service on Saturday. The rep that answered the phone was VERY helpful and solved all my issues. As a matter of fact, he spent an hour on the phone with me explaining the answer to every question I posed. He told me to call back anytime 24/7 and he’d be more than happy to assist. This is really unusual for a company to have this type of customer service without having to go thru a myriad of press 1 press 2 press 3 options. I am VERY impressed with LG. I will buy anything they make with that kind of customer service. I know this review was quite wordy and I apologize for taking so much of your time. Bottom line is: Don’t wait another minute to BUY this TV NOW. I guarantee you will be depriving yourself of some of the best TV viewing EVER. The 3D picture is nothing less than movie theatre quality 3D. One more thing, I have it hooked up to a surround sound system, but even before it was connected the TV sound was very good.Hope this review is helpful.
