Rajen, Milton Keynes Multi-purpose viewer

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Excellent screen quality. Looks smart as well.
Bad points:: When in PC mode and you switch the PC off the screen has to be switched off manually. The Electronic programme guide for the TV is a tad basic, but these are minor issues that should not prevent the purchase of this excellent product.

Alessandra, Multi-purpose viewer

Score 3.0/10

Good points:: Small and thin as required
Bad points:: Bad picture, not what I would expect from LG as I have 3 other LG flatscreens in my house which are great and this is by far the worst picture. I thought with technology moving forward the picture would be better. Very much mistaken and disappointed.
