Because of the wider base and something nobler designs he's just like the 55LA6918 but significantly more expensive than the identical model LG 55LA6608 139 cm (55 inches) Cinema 3D LED backlight TVs, EEK A + (Full HD, 400Hz MCI, WLAN, DVB T / C / S, Smart TV) black.
Unlike the picture suggests, is also this unit vertically by a few degrees swiveling thanks to a roller rail under base.
This design was for me the decisive factor for the purchase, because precisely centered behind the TV is a shelf in my cheek. He is the least deep.
Tips:
- Whoever finds the Magic Control remote control too annoying, you should buy for a few euros a "classic" with more direct keys in addition: Model "LG AKB73615361".
- Even a PC wireless keyboard can be connected via USB, which inputting URLs and passwords significantly simplified. For me, the compact "General Keys PX3362-675" works incl. Touchpad.
- Highly recommended because amazing "understanding" but is also the voice recognition. I do not want to miss. A few words spoken into the microphone close to the remote control speed up the search on the Web a lot. However, the TV-functions themselves can not be controlled verbally.
Significant weaknesses in all TVs of this type:
- The scene reflects very, why it would be best to sit in the dark before. (The only day the advantage that the large area does not look like a black hole in the room.)
- When you sit in the dark, falls evenly dark image content, the very uneven backlight on (Edge LED), you can turn down certain conditions. On my machine, the image is particularly in the lower left corner is not really black.
- The 3D playback occurs due to design only with half the vertical resolution (viewing distance, therefore it no closer than 3m, otherwise you see the horizontal lines).
- TV recordings can watch exclusively on their own TV. (I have it dangling at the back an old external 2.5 "hard drive. 150MB hand me loose from the point that just no archiving is therefore possible)
Downside to this device:
- The sorting of the dig. Cable channels (DVB-C) is only possible by pairwise exchange (longer have the LG programmers probably not perfect hinbekommen - sorry). This requires accurate previous Planning program memory slots, otherwise you need a lot of patience and most proper keys remote control, with which you can type in the number directly, otherwise it will be lengthy. The Order of the DVB-T transmitters carried by contrast, more comfortable place shifting.
- The tone may sound pretty good, however, the "Subwoofer" is just one more speaker on the right, as I discovered when changing the tonal balance. If I fix more on the reproduction of the left, the sound is bad thin.
External video sources:
Regarding the playback of external sources via HDMI, USB, WLAN and Ethernet cable, you can draw on unlimited resources. One can also easily surf the internet and there to watch videos (Flash for VOD is supported, for example, the ZDF media library). Here you can let show the current TV picture as a window anywhere. The TV picture can also be seen in the Facebook app.
Since a few days there is also the free LG Cloud, in which you can select media files upload from your PC and play it on the TV. The rudimentary playback functions are supported. Because I miss only the possibility also be able to read PDF and plain text files.
The contents of the desktop in a notebook connected via HDMI can be even in HD resolution read (1920x1080 pixels) at 55 "diameter from 2.50m distance comfortably, albeit with significant latency when scrolling and mouse moving (but it's probably for a Game Mode ).
Bottom line, you get for the money a TV with large screen area and extensive equipment, which is still slightly better safe with each firmware update.
