LG Infiniatm LX9500 47 Inch 3D TV


LG LX9500 Infiniatm 47 Inch 3D TV

Since the incredible box office success of 3-D movies like Star Trek, Avatar and Monsters Inc, the demand for 3D TV at home has definitely been on the increase. This can be witnessed by the number of 3D TVs now availabe and the marked increase in content being released on 3D Blu Ray and via Satellite.

In my opinion, some of the early 3D TVs were put out to market a little too early, before the technology was 100% sound. For example, if you were watching fast paced action and an image came out of the screen towards you it could blur quite significantly. I found this to be a particular problem in the lower corners of the field of vision.

However, the pace of technological progress continues unabated. Indeed, the next quantum leap appears to be here with LG's new Infiniatm range. The range boasts a 480Hz screen refresh rate that takes things to a new level!

The new LG Infiniatm LX9500 47 Inch 3D TV takes picture quality to a new and stunning level. What's changed? Well, it's still 1080p (the current maximum), but with a screen refresh rate doubled to 480Hz it brings a stunning new picture clarity. It's true I have a habit of "biggin" up LED and HD TV, but LG have produced something worth "bigging" up here!

I honestly didn't believe pictures could get better over the top of the range Samsung 240Hz 1080p, but LG have managed it. And it is most noticeable in the 3D space.

Obviously the competition will have to catch up to 480Hz as well. But, a current top of the range Samsung at 240Hz is still hovering around $5k. At the time of writing the LX9500 comes in at just $3.3k. How have LG managd it?

Based on that LG are going to be tough to beat in this new higher end LED/3D market. And, LG are doing all they can to dominate. I was having a Skype chat with my HD Buddy in the U.K, Brad. Sky TV are the biggest satellite broadcaster over there and have just announced that they have made LG thier 3D TV partners in the U.K. Sky dominate the satellite market in many Euroipean countries and this deal will give LG a massive sales kick in Europe.

The LG Full LED 3D TV Infinia LX9500 is a stunning piece of kit and surprisingly easy to use and set up. In truth, it's about time LED set up was made a little simpler.

The LX9500 is a direct lit model as opposed to edge lit. Normally direct lit TVs are thicker but at 31mm this set again moves technology a step forward. It also comes with LG "Netcast" included. This gives you direct Internet Entertainment access, at last! I was also very impressed that for the price you also get two pairs of active shutter 3D glasses included.

Not only does this allow you to get right into the amazing world of 3D sports, video games, documentaries and blockbuster movies, but it saves you $200-300 into the bargain! It was already a good deal!

LG call the new TruMotion 480Hz "A revolution in picture quality", and I am inclined to agree. 3D motion blur is almost completely eliminated giving you a far clearer over-all picture in 3D, particularly fast action sequences and when images do seem pop out of the screen at you...as I said this has been a slight issue on early 3D sets.

And, I think 2D pictures are improved as well. To be fair it's not as amrked an improvement as the 3D pictures but it's just as amazing. In a way that doesn't really do the picture quality justice but I have run out of superlatives. I think I'm going to have to "tone down" some of my older writings as my descriptions are not keeping pace with the pictures improvements!

The color just screams off of the screen and the blacks are so black with a contrast that is infinitely sharp. This is an amazing viewing experience, and all at just over $3k. 

If you're considering going 3D then definitely check out the LG Infiniatm LX9500 47 Inch 3D TV - I'm sure you will love it. It really does offer great quality and I think it would be extremely difficult to find anything better to get you in to 3D in the current market - have fun and remember it does have an "off" button.
