Picture Okay, Sound Iffy

Bought this TV for the kitchen, it's the perfect size. Product arrived promptly and well-packaged. Setup was easy, but I didn't find the auto picture adjustment that helpful or accurate. Manual picture controls were easy enough to use. Picture is sharp and color saturation is natural looking. I'm a bit disappointed by the fall-off in contrast when viewed from even a modest angle, but I can live with that.
I'd read reviews of the audio limitations of this set, and was willing to accept them as I have a micro-bookshelf receiver and speakers that I intended to use with the set's audio output jacks. That didn't turn out to be possible. All of the specifications I read for this set specified that it had both analog and digital audio outputs. That spec. was one of the set's selling points for me. Unless, they're well disguised, though, they just don't exist. So buyers beware on this. The lack of external audio output is the main reason I give this set 4 stars instead of 5. (Note: about the only workaround I've found for the audio is to plug the audio output from a satellite or cable modem directly into the external amplifier. The downside to that is that it takes 2 remotes to run the set. One devoted solely to volume control. I'm not wonky enough to make the satellite remote control the bookshelf receiver and the TV.) |

| The LG 22-inch HDTV is ideal for the bedroom or study. Easy to handle at 15 pounds, it requires no assembly and is up and running (cable) in 5 minutes. The picture is razor sharp and brilliant, the sound quality good, though volume limited, the remote convenient. The price is spectacular! I could not be more pleased. |
Product meets all our needs in all categories...

| This, our first flat screen TV, was purchased as a gift. It arrived promptly, was well packed, and in perfect condition. Set up was very easy and the performance is excellent. |
Great Picture; Terrible Sound

| This looks like a great compact TV until you listen to it and try to connect it to headphones or a stereo system -- Just not possible. No audio output so if you don't like the sound, or you want to put it in a bedroom and not disturb your partner... you're out of luck. My smaller and cheaper TVs have an audio output that you can plug in a set of headphones or connect to a stereo.. So unless you LOVE the sound, better look at other options. |

| Nice lcd, easy to use and looks nice. But the picture quality is not that great. My Panasonic is much better. |
Good for the value.

| This is a welcome addition to my bedroom, has ample inputs for my sattelite reciever, DVD Player, and even a computer. Simple to set up, pretty much programmed itself (it takes about 15 to scan all channels and signal types)and looks great. The hidden speakers are quite cool because they do not require extended case size to accomidate them. Obviously this does not have booming bass or anything like that, but is sounds good. The energy settings allow for dimming the screen, which is handy in a dark room. The only think I wish it did was display 2 inputs at once, for example show the computer and the TV input at the same time. But I am frugal and this does not detract from my enjoyment of this TV. |

This is an excellent HDTV. Great picture, easy set up. If I have any complaint, it is that the speakers are small, and so the sound is a little weak. I am not sure if any flat screen TV of this size would accommodate louder speakers, and this is a minor gripe really. We have the unit mounted on the wall about 10 feet from our bed, and the picture is great and the sound adequate except for quiet segments. I may get add on speakers.
All in all a great value and I love the quality of the picture -- all colors are vivid and clear. We use the TV for on air broadcast signal only (no cable). |
