Score 9.0/10+ A good looking television with a clear picture and good sound.The swivel base is surprisingly useful and the tv set up screens are easy to navigate.
- It doesn't seem to be compatable with sky as despite getting a huge list of codes from both sky and LG there is no code to get the LG tv to work using the sky remote control and so you have to use the sky remote to select the channel and the LG control for volume etc.

Score 9.0/10+ This is a great TV for a great price. The saying goes, "you get what you pay for", well LG seem to deliver a lot more for your money than some of their competitors. It is in no way a budget model (in terms of quality) for it given place in the market. The contrast ratio is really great in all light conditions, colours are all displayed well. When I saw it in the shop I was slightly worried about the intensity of primary colours (red faces...etc). On getting it delivered though it has two settings for shops and homes; the home setting is good and realistic out-of-the-box. It seems to upscale pictures really well (especially from digital TV, less good on DVD). Sound is won’t blow you away, but it isn’t rubbish either. Most people will have their own surround speakers anyway. Speakers are hidden away (not sure why this is so important but apparently this is part of the design).
- The intelligent sensor for different light conditions is excellent but I wish it wouldn't flash "Intelligent Sensor" across the bottom of the screen everytime it is adjusting. A truly 'intelligent' sensor should be invisible. That said, it works. I'm disappointed that some DVDs seem to have the top/bottom blacklines of widescreen, even though this is a widescreen TV. I'm not sure if this is the TV not detecting the aspect correctly or my DVD player but it would have nice to have a better more adjustable zoom as I cannot get rid of these on any aspect setting for some films.

Joe, Edinburgh , “not a lot!”
Score 10.0/10+ For the money there is not a thing wrong with this TV, really happy.
- Collects dust from static (I think they all do this though)

THE SOUND IS CRYSTAL CLEAR AND SO IS THE PICTURE AND FOR VALUE FOR MONEY THIS TV IS TOP OF THE PILE .
ITS FANTASTIC FOR GAME CONSOLES AND THE STUNNING SLIM LOOKS MAKES THIS TV LOOK GREAT IN ANY ROOM ITS 10/10 IN MY EYES
- WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS TV ON LINE IT SAID IT HAD A CONTRAST RATIO OF 30000:1 BUT IT ACTUALLY IS 15000:1 AS IT WAS FOR MY BEDROOM IT DIDNT BOTHER ME BUT JUST CHECK BEFORE BUYING

Score 10.0/10+ As a 71 year old luddite I found this product to be very easy to assemble and set up.
- Like all digital tvs it wont show text only - half the screen is taken up with picture while I am trying to read ceefax or teletext news. If someone can tell me how to get full screen text I'd be happy to learn.

Score 9.0/10+ sleek, compact, good picture
- can't delete channels you don't want to watch eg shopping channels

Bev, Leeds , “Yorkshire woman”
Score 9.0/10+ Speakers, etc don't take up valuable space - they're hidden behind the screen. Easy to use. Graphic equalizer is good - pretty excellent, really, for a flat screen TV. We were going to invest in a home cinema system, but may not do so due to the good sound quality.
- Shiny black plastic frame / surround looks cheap. It also attracts dust like a magnet. A matt finish would have been much better.

Ian, Brampton Huntingdon
Score 9.0/10+ Very easy to set up with on screen display. lots of information on the dvd manual supplied. Sound quality is very good from the built in speaker system, you would however need extra speakers if you are a heavy base fanatic. Image quality is excellent with just a few slight adjustments needed to customise to your own requrements.This is my second LG tv and I would buy LG in the future.Very good value for money.
- I cant think of any at the moment, I have had the TV just over a month.

Expert reviews for LG 32LG5000
TechRadar expert review
We're getting pretty used to seeing outlandish contrast ratio Ô¨Ågures in the Ô¨Çat TV world these days, but at 50,000:1, this Ô¨Çatscreen's takes the biscuit. Will this ԨŠgure be truly apparent in the TV's picture quality, or will it just provide more ammunition for the argument that quoted contrast ratios are untrustworthy?Before we Ô¨Ånd out, we should say that the 32LG5000 is a pretty little thing with its faintly convex gloss black surround, subtle arc along the lower edge, 'speakerless' design and slinkily emphasised 'power light' to bottom right. The whole thing sits on a…
