| With standard-definition TVs, the rule used to be that viewers would feel comfortable watching a set from a distance of 3 to 6 times the screen size in inches. With HDTV, the resolution is so much better that you can sit closer to a larger TV without noticing the pixels. So with HDTVs, the rule tends to be you can sit anywhere from 1.5 to 3 times the screen size (in inches) for the best experience. If you know the size of the room you have already, where you want to sit, and where your new HDTV should go once you get it, you can figure out the size HDTV you should get. - Minimum size = Viewing distance/3
- Maximum size=Viewing distance/1.5

 There is a lot TV for 500bux September 1, 2010
Amax Luggage (Los Angeles, CA)
We decided to mount a flat panel on the wall of our newly built party/activity room. We didn't want to spend too much on LED or 3D, as it will just be a waste of money after few years (we spent $3000 on a DLP 6 or 7 yrs back, now it doesnt worth anything and you have to pay to get it out of the house).
Video Quality:
Personally i think there is alot TV for $500. Although it's a 720p but i couldnt tell much difference in video quality when I compared it with a Samsung 1080p LCD. If you are not extremly picky about image quality, i think this might be the one for you. I think image quality is at its best when playing HD cartoon (did very well on Ice Age).
Con: this tv does not automatically mute when its out of receiption. it gets annoying when you turn on the TV while your cable box is not on. I thought it's the speaker setting but no, there is no option to change it. The other thing i dont like about is its glossy screen. you'll have to watch tv in dim light or otherwise you'll be watching light bulbs instead.
Build Quality:
I've used it for about 3mo now, havent had any problem yet. built finish is ok. back side of the TV doesnt have much cosmetic. but it's ok if you are going to mount it on the wall. you'll need at least a 400x600 wall mount. we bought the smaller one and it wouldnt fit.
 Solid TV August 29, 2010
Cynthia A. Nelson (Charleston, WV USA)
Haven't done a whole lot with it so far, but for a little over $500, I can't ask for a much better value. The picture is pretty solid, it helps to avoid as much glare as possible. Perfect for my dorm room.
Great TV August 29, 2010
T. Coffman
I just got the TV yesterday and really love it. Although the glare from plasma is definitely an issue, it's worth it to get the bright colors and the awesome refresh rate for sports and action movies. We had LCD TV in same spot before, it didn't have the glare, but the colors were dull in comparison. The sound is good, with no buzzing that I've noticed, and I stood right next to TV with sound off and still didn't hear "buzzing" other people talk about. I also love the swivel base and its thin size. I was turned off in the past by the size of the plasmas, being heavier and thicker, but this TV is light enough for one person to lift it (a little awkwardly) and very thin and stylish. Although delivery took longer than I wanted, it was free and you can't beat that. All in all, I love this TV and am very happy with my choice.
Plasma rocks! August 12, 2010
Jack Frost (Philadelphia, PA. USA)
Exceptional quality, one of the best decisions I've made in electronics...
Don't let the price fool you excellent HD, easy set up, stand was a bit of a struggle but once installed looks fabulous!
Happy camper...
 Looks Great, But There Are Flaws August 10, 2010
T. Bos (Holland, Mi United States)
First of all let me say that this TV looks amazing. This is one cool TV, it's extremely thin and the piano black trim is extremely slick.
The remote control is great. The Sound is impressive. It's easy to set up. It's got a great price (I purchased for $550.00 but later saw this TV priced under $500 so wait for it to get low!) The picture is beautiful...except for one small issue... a dead pixel - the first of 3 minor issues that keep me from being happy about my purchase.
1. Dead Pixel: The day after I unboxed and set up my TV I put in a movie which began with a solid white screen. Out of nowhere I noticed a tiny black dot on the screen just off the middle of the picture. I clicked through the channels hoping it would go away - but it was always there - an infamous dead pixel. Sadly, LG's warranty only replaced the TV if there are 7 or more dead pixels. Because this pixel is in such a central area, I can't help but notice it almost constantly while watching the TV.
2. Burn-In: After a few weeks of use I turned my TV on noticed that there were remnants of and old image on the current one. With minimal use, burn in developed and is very obvious after this short period of time.
3. Slight buzzing while Tv is On: Other reviews on Amazon mention this issues - The TV emits a quiet but noticeable sound that disrupts quite scenes of movies. I didn't think it would be an issue - but I do notice it.
Overall, this TV looked great, and in many respects is. However, a few issues on LG's part keep this TV from being great. I also suggest checking the retailers return policy ( I purchased from another company via amazon) because their return policies can be more strict. In this case, I'm unable to return the TV because the company I bought it from (through Amazon) doesn't accept any returns on TVs.
