LG TVs

With numerous award winning TVs under its belt, LG continue to produce innovative TV technologies, exquisite designs and user-friendly features. There were two CES Innovation Awards won in 2008 by LG for excellent technology and for design, and since then the excellence continues, with more and more impressive technology on board as LG evolves. In 2010 LG won the CES Award for Eco Design and 2011 saw LG win Best of Innovations awards for Video Display, Portable Media Players and for Integrated Home Cinema Systems.

LG win over many consumers with stunning designs and feature rich TVs, but LG also manage to keep prices as low as possible making them even more appealing in their initial outlay, but also their energy efficiency keeps them low cost to run. The Smart Energy Saving feature which combines efforts made by the Intelligent Sensor, Power Saving Mode, Video Mute and Mechanical Power-off Switch all help to save energy and keep running costs as low as they possibly can.

Other ways in which LG works hard to reduce its carbon footprint is by using LED technology which helps it to produce slimmer TV models, meaning less materials used, along with using 34% fewer screws for fixing parts making it better for recycling. The LED lamps used do not use the harmful substance mercury, like older models used to.

The LG TV collection for 2011 has a lot to offer. LG delve into the world of 3D, and include many features, such as Smart TV, that allow you to stay in touch with the world around you, all from the comfort of your sofa. Technologies such as LG Cinema 3D, Magic Motion Remote Control, Smart TV, LG Apps, Smart Share, TruMotion 200Hz, DLNA, Freeview HD all combine to deliver the ultimate TV entertainment experience.

The LG TV collection consists of 3D TVs, plasma, LED, LCD available from 15 inches up to 60 inches.

Here, we explain the main features of the LG television range:

LG Cinema 3D

The LG 3D feature gives you an extra wide viewing angle giving you the 3D effect from wherever you sit. The 3D technology on board gives you extremely clear and bright images whether you are watching 3D or 2D pictures. The 3D glasses required with LG 3D TVs are supplied for free with the TV and are extremely light at just 16g compared to other brands that weigh around 40g. LG 3D glasses are just like the ones that you get at the cinema, so there is no extra cost there and they do not need batteries or recharging like some others.

LG Smart TV

This feature turns your TV into a huge computer screen giving you access to all of your favourite websites such as Facebook, YouTube, Google, BBC iPlayer etc, and LG include a Home Dashboard so you can personalise your home screen to contain all your favourites and most used websites. This is possible with the simple use of either an Ethernet cable from your broadband router or just plug in the LG Wi-Fi USB dongle and you're away.

LG App Store

Just like the Apple App Store, which most are familiar with, the LG App store gives you a whole range of interactive games and applications for you to have fun with along with your friends and family. Add them to your LG Home Dashboard for easy access.

LG Smart Share

Smart Share gives you wireless access to your music collection, photos, videos etc via any DLNA device such as your laptops or MP3 player or by USB so you can share your personal media with whoever you like.

Magic Motion Remote Control

This optional (we strongly recommend it) extra is a revolutionary addition to your LG TV. LG has clearly recognised the need for more flexibility with our remote control, especially since more and more interactive features are included with TVs. This remote is something special. It is almost like a magic wand, working like a computer mouse and a Wii remote in one. Point it at the TV and control with a click, drag, flick without the need for fussy directional buttons.

TruMotion 200Hz

LG never seem to fail when it comes to image quality and with TruMotion 200Hz on board a clear, sharp image is guaranteed. This feature works to achieve a natural picture by eliminating motion judder and image flicker, so watching fast moving movie scenes and sports are super smooth.

Freeview HD

A great addition to a great range of TVs. This free digital service is integrated with some LG TVs, and means there is no connection or subscription fees for you. Get all of your favourite channels along with HD channels.
