Customer Review

I needed no new television, my 8 year old 42 "plasma of Medion was not to get broken and has an excellent image.
Why then does it? I do not know, something bigger, newer, also the price was unbeatable in the flash range.

So much larger than my old 42 never "sees the 55" from. The reason is that the frame is very thin here, which I like very well. Might otherwise have looked a little too bold on the wall.

Speaking wall: Part of the ports is attached to the back: power supply, antenna / SAT, wireless, digital (optical) audio output, headphone jack (!!) and SCART.
That's very inconsiderate, because you had not ran in life comes after you have hung up the part. So you have to make these connections even before the unit is on the wall, which is extremely inconvenient.

The HDMI and USB ports are also located at the back, but are arranged laterally. With small hands and long arms to get there ran also when the device hangs on the wall.
This has been solved better with the 8 year old Medion, because all ports were accessible from below. So new is not necessarily better / thoughtful.

The "manual" does not deserve the name. Locker 1cm thick, but only because it is written in what felt like 100 languages. Find out is there not in it.

For SAT-users the tiresome topic station sorting has been already often discussed here. I could not imagine that that would be a problem. Is it yet.
Leaving aside how many places here described the country code away, has significant limitations. For example, does the AMAZON app no ​​longer, probably due to licensing reasons.
A contact with the LG Support then took the crucial clue:

- Germany is to be confirmed as a country
- Setting type "full" instead of "only ASTRA"
- Service provider: "No"
- Check "blind search"

After each transmitter can then nevertheless miss a new number. Very cumbersome and is hopefully not in any update or channel search again away.
But in the Bed.Anltg. a word of it. Assuming intuitive front after screen instructions you Pro7 possibly ranked 487, SAT1 in 1813, etc.
A direct selection via the keyboard thus impossible unless one is "Rain Man". The favorites list brings there also no advantage, because you can not sort this.

Here there is always room for improvement, hope to implement but probably not as lt. Various forums, the problems have existed for years and LG probably sees no need for action. Maybe we're just spoiled here in Germany, but it should be possible, if necessary, serve country-specific preferences are available. As hard as can not be the fact.

The sound is a full disaster, always sounds tinny despite extensive settings.
Here I have helped me by letting basically run everything only on the surround sound system. That's been exemplary in the settings for happiness and should meet all requirements. The setting will remain available even after down and restarting.
Then you should however also treat themselves to a universal remote control to not always control the volume with another must.

Who wants to operate in addition to the built-in satellite receiver, other peripheral devices to the HDMI inputs, needs when switching from one to the other input patience.
When pressing the appropriate button on the RC to open a menu, in which the SAT input on the far left and the HDMI inputs are on the far right of the screen.
Between them with me all options that I never need. So you have the cursor / selection window always move from the left to the right and vice versa back.
This is cumbersome and difficult to understand why the user can customize the order no.

The picture, however, is really good. Not better than my 8 year old 42 "plasma, but that was never before to beat compared to other devices, but also not bad.
The main criterion has thus fulfilled the LG. See self-SAT-SD channels, despite the large screen from appealing.
There are also plenty of individual settings, and some theme-based preferences. I opted for the "Movies" option. Brightness and color are here not glaring, but pleasant.

Good also the pleasing low power consumption of approximately 70 watts to 285 watts of old plasma.
In the always underlying 4 hours daily viewing behavior which corresponds to a saving of approx. 314 Kw / h per year.
At EUR 0.25 / kW / h in a saving of EUR 78.50 per year.
If the device still holds now by 6-7 years, it was free ....
