John, Dublin , “I like my gadgets!”

Score 9.0/10

+ Picture quality is great, connectivity options excellent particularly the optical out which means none of my devices need to connected to the surround sound amp, just the TV....and I love the bluetooth for showing photos, it is a doddle to use and the consoles look amazing and the blu ray really gets to show itself off on the screen.

- The sound is not great, but to be honest most flat screens are like this as they dont have the space to create big bass sounds...i dont really like saying its a bad point as i expected it to be like this.

+ Had TV for around a month now - one word to describe - Excellent.
Picture quality is excellent, features (Trumotion and Real Cinema in particular) are very good. Watching SKY HD content (even though it's 1080i rather than 1080p) is a revelation in comparison to my previous Sony.
Value for money is outstanding (had bought 40" Sony LCD before that had a picture fault after 18 months - not worth the extra money).
I would recommend this TV.

- None.

Anonymous verified purchaser , “Mature male, ENGLAND”

Score 10.0/10

+ Excellent picture - both on HD and SD. Realistic colours. 100Hz and TruMotion work well together to reduce motion blur. Clear and easy to use menus. Good connectivity.

- The user manual is supplied as a PDF document on CD. At 300 plus pages, I don't intend to print it out myself and going backwards and forwards to my computer to read the manual is a pain. I wasn't over impressed with the built in sound, but then again I had become accustomed to a home cinema setup before purchasing this TV. Works well with the LG Home Cinema system I purchased with the TV, but I have to reset the audio input to optical out every time I change input source on the TV - e.g. HDMI1 to AV1.

Expert reviews for LG 47LG7000

TechRadar expert review

Many TVs these days add multimedia playback to their basic television talents. But LG's 47in 47LG7000 takes this a step further by making at least some of its multimedia functionality available wirelessly, via Bluetooth. Now you can send digital photos from a Bluetooth-enabled mobile to the TV or listen to the TV's sound using wireless Bluetooth headphones. It's a nice party piece, but this TV has better tricks up its sleeve‚Ä¶Eye-catchingTruMotion 100Hz immediately catches our eye ‚Äì it doubles the usual PAL frame rate to counteract LCD's traditional motion blur problems.

Most small flatscreen TVs have LCD screens. Some larger TVs have plasma screens. Some very new TVs have LED screens. Traditional TVs are called Standard or CRT.
HD TV	Full HD 1080p
‘HD Ready’ is a Europe-wide standard designed to made HD technology less confusing. HD Ready TVs must have • Minimum vertical resolution of 750 pixels (in widescreen format) • Ability to display 720p and 1080i formats • An HDMI or Digital Video Interface (DVI interface) Full HD is a higher standard. Full HD TVs have screen resolutions of 1080p and can output at least 24 frames per second. Full HD is becoming common, but you won’t see Full HD on normal TV channels for a long time, so it remains optional for many people.
Built-in Disc Player	No Disc Player
Some products come with built-in DVD players or Blu Ray players.
HDMI Interface	4
Like a scart interface but capable of carrying HD signals from or to other devices. You’ll need these to link your Playstation 3 or your Blu-ray player to your HD-ready TV.
Number of Scart Interfaces	2
Scart sockets are places where you can connect other devices to your TV. If you already have a DVD player, a VCR and a Playstation you might want to make sure your new TV has enough Scart interfaces so you don’t have to keep crawling round the back of the TV.
Frequency (Hz)	100
A TV’s frequency is how often the picture is updated per second, and is measured in Hertz (Hz). A higher frequency, such as 100 Hz, means that a TV is more likely to show fast-moving images with high detail.
Contrast Ratio (X:1)	50000
This figure is designed to tell you how much difference there is between dark and light colours on the TV. It is quoted as a ratio, between the brightest white and the darkest black. 500:1 means the brightest white is 500 times more bright than the darkest black. Plasma screens have historically boasted better contrast ratios than LCD screens.
Response Time in ms	5

Reflection Angle	178
Also known as the viewing angle, it’s a measure of how good the picture looks when you are not face on to the screen. Higher is better.
Screen Format	16:9
This is a ratio of the horizontal to the vertical size of the screen. 16:9 is standard widescreen format for TVs, replacing the older 4:3 format.
Brightness in Candela per square metre	500
Brighter TVs, such as LCDs, tend to provide a better experience in lighter rooms, whereas TVs with a lower brightness, such as many plasma TVs, are often better suited to darker rooms.
PC Interface	Yes
If you’d like to use your TV as a PC monitor you’ll need to make sure it has a port to allow you to connect it. This is usually a VGA port, but some TVs include a newer DVI port. Adaptors are availible to allow VGA to DVI and vice versa.
USB Port	Yes
Socket for connecting devices such as a computers and other components
Screen Resolution (pixels)	1080p
