  • HAHA.. good luck playing xbox on this garbage. 1366 x 768 isn't supported by xbox 360.. INPUT LAAAAAAAG.

  • @colinjrob1 Lg 50pc51 for me and is still a beautiful image is low compared with LG plasmas.

  • @colinjrob1

    The xbox supports 1360 x 768 a difference of 6 pixels wow! I think i'll spend an extra £100 and buy a PS3 instead and all that money just makes my pockets heavy.

  • @JadeIsMyConstant Hehe PS3 supports 3D too :D

    

  • the button to turn the tv on/off only clicks twice nd will not turn the tv on - does anyone know what i need to purchase to fix this problem... can't go out and buy another tv>

  • lol, 15,000:1 is nothing for contrast

  • @tonyrocksalot First of all, this TV is from 2007, secondly, if it really IS 15.000:1, then it's the best, but if you would measure it, it will be wayy lower. This is probably just the dynamic constrast in its best moment, which many people don't even use and isn't really something you need to look at when buying a TV.

  • yup.we have over 10 million now

  • @dipu94321 I know! XD

  • Had mine for over 3years now am sure and it ain't finished YET ... lol now using it for my PC screen all wireless people come in my house and now ask me if my TV has internet built in lmao.

  • That is the same TV i have

  • I bought mine in June this is Oct.its been broke for 3 weeks now still waiting for repairs under the warranty.WHAT A GREAT TV ....NOT!!! Y -Main, Upper and Lower scan boards and Logic is out . DO NOT BUY LG

  • @keymankeys1960 dont be so critical many tvs will have the exact same issues...its a common issue

  • yeah nemo

    Talking seriously LG perform the most natural and real image and the moves...

    LG + Plasma great for all for games, sports, cooking shows, documentals this LG looks amazing

  • fukin massive that :O

  • shut up dude let us watch nemo!!

  • lol plasma sux

  • @vinzer72frie lol no they dont

  • @LosTutosDeFelix picture quality and stuff they don't suck. But they are incredibly inefficient that noone should buy them.

  • I bouth a 50ins LG plasma in November 2007, the plasma is less than 3 years old and is already broken, further more we hardly even use it!!!!

    Can someone tell me what can I do. I live in the UK and the TV was purchased in currys store.

  • @MARIACLASS home insurance??????

  • i have 3 of them:p

  • @cheese123321123321

    If you are looking for the BEST picture quality in regards to deep black levels and colours, then definetly a PLASMA. LCD/LED have an amazing picture as well, unfortunately, their black levels are not up too par with plasmas. Plasmas perform better in a darker environment, whereas the LCD/LED performs better in a well lit room. PLASMAs are heavier & much thicker, and eat up FAR MORE energy than LCD/LED. Bottom line, get a brand name unit of plasma or LCD/LED.

    Cheers.

  • i have this tv :D

  • my dad got this tv!!!!!!!!

  • This video is 3 years old, of course the tv is bad now.

  • 720p? psh

  • @thefrickenfilmcritic

    720p is plenty. The only 1080p source is Blu. Cable TV and video games are not in 1080p, and that is a majority of the available content. You'd be stupid to spend more when you don't need to.

  • 1366x768 ! thats lame for such a large screen

  • Thats the hidden hook in this lg tvs xD

  • true i swear i saw that resolution on a 16" screen

  • i have this tv. the people look soo fuckin real. its amazing.

  • can somone please tell me what is the difference beetween plasma and lcd/led. Picture quality difference? whatever....and please tell me whats better.

    thankyou

  • im gettin' a 50 inch flat screen....WHOOO

  • Search "Plasma Hdtv" on SonicMoo (dot) com

  • A sales person told me yesterday that they are no longer making Plasma TV's. He said to buy an LED TV. Has anyone heard about this.

  • Bull shit

  • Plasma has better contrast than LED TV's, LED TVs are still LCD.

  • Your salesman is a noob. Led is not a display technology but a its raplacing the ccfl's for backlight. they are still making both lcd/tft plasma and whatnot displays (tn, va, s/h-isp etc)

  • 15,000 is nothing my samsung is 2 million : 1

  • this is a three year old model and I'm pretty sure still has better blacks than your tv.

  • Link me to the specs?

  • 1366x768?

    I run that resolution on my 18.5" Monitor! :D

    haha

    plasma sucksss!

  • They're just not good and reaching they're potential. But plasmas in general ARE better than LCDs. You get the right plasma and you'll be laughing with joy, they can be quite incredible. You get an LCD you'll be obsolete in seconds - they're good for computer monitors because you're up close and at the right angle but the picture quality will never be nearly as rich as that of a plasma screen and although you can see it's flaws when you're up close - sit back a bit and there's the Mona Lisa!

  • Oh how I would like to witness the failure of these products right now. This shit is the same is zenith which means all products sucks!

  • my dads getting a LG 50PS3000 and i cant wait

  • Comment removed

  • Honestly my dad is an optometrist (eye doctor) and he said the naked eye cannot see the difference in a 2.000.000 to 1 tv ratio it is just a selling prompt he said the most you can actually see with the naked eye is 70.000 to 1 and that is what I am getting because I do not want to waste like 1-2 thousand dollars for an extra I cannot see..

  • got myself a LG 50 incher too. 2.000.000:1!! its a BEAST!

  • nice tv man xD

  • can they stop demonstrating on movies and demonstrate what games look like????? i mean i know not all people play games but most ppl who buy these t.v's buy it for football or games.

  • tru that

  • "It creates HD for you." Someone please explain...

  • because when you play non-HD content, it improves the quality of the content, at almost HD definitions

  • can someone tell me which tv will be good for me or which 1 is betta to get. i want a 50 inch tv and it should be hd 1080p. so which 1 should i get and which 1 should it be ?

    PLasma or Lcd Or led ?

    PLease Tell me

  • Lyeboyz002, plasma's will have the best picture, 1080 wont look anydifferent to 720 unless your sitting 50 cm's from the screen and then you cant see the hole screen, 1080 is deffenitly better once you get 50" + but under that its almost pointless, 1080p is mainly just a big marketing sceme, if you are getting newer plasma's make sure it has a thing that moves the picture the tinyest amount every second. this makes the pixels refresh and stops burn in, but with plasma's dont leave a single frame

  • It will move the image such a small amount a human eye cant see it but the pixels will still refresh meaning that a single frame wont sit on the pixel for longer than a few seconds, the only thing that causes screen burn in is a single frame on the tv for around 30 min+ also try to get a plasma with the most commen broadcast ratios, you dont want the black bars on the screen that make it wider/thinner, they will burn into the screen.for the first 200 hours it will burn in very easy so watch out

  • 15000:1 is crap so is 80000:1

    now my plasma is 2,000,000:1

  • lol plasma.

  • I'm so stupid. I recently bought a ps3 (80 gb version) and then like.. wtf have I done?! I had just got enough money from a job to buy the ps3, but then after I bought it I began to think of a better TV. Very dumb. Now I have to stick to my seven year old giant black SD TV. Looks shitty as hell with the PS3! I am in a deep depression right now, slowly working with different jobs to earn enough money to buy a Full HD TV. It will a cheap TV then. Grrr!!!!! :D

  • why dont you just quit your job and collect welfare? Obama will end up giving you enough money for a new LCD.

    Its the new American way....... let others work to pay for your possessions.

  • what can you do my friend? life is hard you know. i bet that a lot of people are going through the same situation as you are right now.

  • i have an lg 50" plasma and haves 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio

  • i got this TV

  • looks like my 42 inch tv I dont see a difference

  • 15,000:1 Contrast Ratio WOW!!! -.-

    My TV got 80,000:1 ...

  • 80,000:1...crap!!!

  • i have this tv dose any 1 no how to set up the freeview

  • shit tv mine has you can see lights flash on right side dont buy

  • are Plasma TV's this size realistic to be used on a PC to play like Crysis on Ultra High? like can a GTX 295 even handle it?

  • hahaha ive played wow using my laptop connected to this tv, and it is a pretty shitty video card and i was getting 29 fps

  • oh okay, so you can lol, cool :-)

  • hey i have the exact same tv. whats service imput in the back of the tv?

  • It is for firmware updates from television service people.

  • OLD TV

  • 720 on a 50 inch is mediocre.

  • NICE HAIR! lol

  • i have a lg 50PG6000 with 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio and 600 herts of refresh rate

    plasma or led i don't know but it's good

  • i just bought that one, havent installed it yet. i hope its good

  • i have the 42 inch version, it heats up badly but hook up the hdmi cable to the blueray. u can basicly see every pimple bug even dust on the movie. i reccomend this tv. only problem is just the heat it produces, 2 hot 2 touch.

  • DICK , anything that heats up uses power, the hotter it gets the more resistance the more power it uses, I have this exact tv and it great but it says on the back 5A - which is 5 amps ,,, I x V =- 5 x 230 which is equal to 1150watts That is the same as 19 - 60watt light globes running at the same time or 76 - 15 watt compact flouros. Great value for money for the first days viewing!. This is not just LG its every plasma thats available.

  • I also have an NEC plasma but 42 inch, NO SHIT THIS TV USES ONLY 300 WATT.

    THATS HD CANT BEAT THAT.

  • If someone gave me on of these I would smash it up

  • I have the same 50 inch it does get hot but when im playing my ps3 i put the brightness down it doesn't get hot that much. also put a fan straight into the tv and it doesn't get that hot.

  • i have that exact tv! it sucks in my opinion! I got it brand new for €800! Dont buy! it offten gets plasma burn eg, i pause a movie go take a piss go back and the image is burned on the screen!!! Get an LCD

  • i know its so foggy looking

  • it is ok for tv but not good enough for HD gaming. I see you play HALO ... Xbox rules.... i got a 50" full hd lcd for Xbox! :)

  • panasonic is better

  • I have a vp504 vizio plasma. So which is better?

  • Vizio Plasma TV use LG Panels, which are not very high quality. To be honest, LG and Vizio are more budget brands, and cannot really compete with Pioneer or Panasonic. LG Tvs are slightly better than Vizio, but not by much. For the price, Vizio is a better choice.

    The LG panels that I've seen have issues with motion, with IR (image retention).

  • Can you do Picture in Picture on this TV? i have the 50 inch and I cant find the manual.

  • i'm gonna buy a Plasma Viera Panasonic 50" High Definition Digital TV Ready With 1920p 1000000:1 contrast :D

  • Panasonics are the best. Well....Pioneer obviously comes first but Panasonic and Pioneer are the only true plasma's.

  • Yeah... I noticed that, my Tv is here at home for 5 weeks

  • i got a 42 inch plasma flat screen and there is a smug on it and i was just wondering what i should use to clean it becasue when the screen in black u can see it.

    plz reply

  • i got this today, 1080p, not LG, 50inch, a little too big , believe me

  • I tried to play any DVD on my LG LCD 32 Inch Widesreen Flatron TV, but the picture is the same anamorphic horizontal stretch that you get on a normal TV, I had to change it to Pan Scan mode, then zoom in to make it Widescreen. Do any LCD or Plasma TV's have zoom in functions, that I can zoom in a DVD picture, and the zoom in words dont appear as well?? anyone know?

  • You can get 60 inch 1080p t.v for 2000 dollars at costco, they have the best prices there and the return policy is the best too. Brands like sony and and panasonic overprice there stuff too much. There was a 70 inch 1080p plasma Sony t.v at sony style and it was $20,000. There was a 72 inch 1080p Samsung t.v at costco for $2500. Sony overprices too much, the t.vs were almost identical except the Samsung was larger.

  • yea but the contrast is realy low like  10 000:1 and also its 60 heartz wich makes a ghost when somthing moves fast and it sucks

  • Projectors are worse than fucking youtube quality lol

    AND THATS BAD

  • thats not exactly true dude projection had hd before lcd

  • amen. The DLP rear projectors could take 1080i back in the year 2000.

  • I have a shitty 19 inch in my room and a 42' in my living room.

  • ha ive got two 42 pannys 720p thinking now a 50 inch would be bad arse. Heck why not just get 52 no wait heck jump up 65 lol when does it stop

  • i have a 52 inch philips tv

  • I have a 50 inch lg plasma but not this one i got it like 3 weeks ago. Its only 720p though. It was 1200dollars. We should of got the 60inch 1080p Lg plasma for 2000.

  • yea you definatly shouldve

    i just got a 50 inch 720p one too but i didnt know 60 inches were only 2000

  • projectors are shit roboticnoface.

    worst quality in life.

    idiot

  • There are 1080p projectors just to let you know. There was and epson 1080p projector that was about $2799 and it could beecome 102inches. That is cheaper then a t.v

  • no  bad comment

  • iv got a projector its way better

  • sell it for nothing

  • oled is 1,000,000:1 and it came out when this vid came out...

  • yeah and it's so much more expensive....

  • 15,000:1 ratio is not that good haha ive seen tv's with 20,000:1 and aslo 30,000:1

  • panny got it beat

  • I have this one, I usually don't watch tv or play my 360 often (computer gamer) and i just turned it on today to find it's got some shitty blue pixelation distortion. I've had this thing for almost 3 months and I'm already having issues :/

  • i jus bought this t.v today lol im fucken 15 n i spent 2grand on it with a stand n i never watch t.v . but its fucken nice jus noticed its ghosts easy but u can make it good away in the ooptions i think

  • plasmas arnt clear but there clear anarf little tvs or like the size of my huga mountia best

  • the best plasma picture ive seen is on a pioneer it stud out in the shop from the rest superb plasma not cheap either

  • This is 50 icnhes? Might aswell get a projector.

  • contrast ratios numbers do not matter because every manufacture measures contrast differently but this is a decent set..

  • I have this on also.

    Great tv.

    I used to play my 360 on it.

  • Whats the life span of the unit? How many hrs does it expect to last for, I have heard LG's have a short life span compared to others?!?!

  • Most tvs are now rated at 60,000 hours

  • is the 15000:1 contrast ratio the best LG have isn't it possible to get much higher ratios?

  • Last I heard you can get upto 50,000:1, my samsung is that. Remember though that is native, dont be fooled by dynamic contrast.

  • i am lg 38 inch ,is very best PLASMA rulzz LG is best tv !

  • I have this tv with a wii and a ps3 and its out of this world everybody loves it have had no burn problems i played mario kart 64 on my wii virtual console with my mate for 5hrs and you could see the position for like 10mins after we finished but this dissapeared and has been fine so i think as long as your sensible this is def the tv for you its amazing call of duty 4 on my ps3 is the most realistic graphics ive ever seen in my life!!

  • Do U use it on HDMI with your ps3 or do U use component while setting up your PS3 @ 720p ?

  • We brought one of these tv's and we love it!!!!

    Halo 3 and Call of duty 4 are the best on it!!!!

    They 1080P res on DVDS is atonishing

  • does burn in happen when you play halo in mutiplayer?

  • i just bought one of these 3 days ago and so far im happy as hell. ive played some movies and the picture quality is freaking amazing but i also use it to play x box360 the graphics are surreal but i didnt know until now that plasma tv`s can burn images on the screen if they are left on the screen to long... im keeping the big boy though lets just see what happens might have to go back to gaming on my little 32" LCD

  • 32" is little?? since when did this happen?

  • well when you go from 32" to 50" the 32" just seems like 15" ya digg? its just like once you go big then small is just too small.

  • oh yeah i see youre point.

  • Im Getting One For $1499.99 from future shop

  • Got one, waiting for installation from the future shop crews, mines a 42 inch. Does burn in still happen? or does this tv have the technlogy to combat it?

  • Got one, waiting for installation from the future shop crews, mines a 42 inch. Does burn in still happen? or does this tv have the technlogy to combat it?

  • It has the ability to erase 90% of the burn. (in other words, after a while it all goes away.)

  • I just bought one as Open box for 1299.00 from Future shop as well

  • Mine just died after 16 months of use on Dec 26th. $3,700.00 befor tax and now the company that LG outsources it's repairs too is closed for the holidays. It's one week later now and I am still waiting for someone to show up and repair this beast.

  • Shit, really? i just bough one!

  • i just bought one =DDD and i just love it <3<3<3

  • no 1080p reso? LAME

    advanced he says..lol

  • its 720p resolution

    :(

  • Rubbish! I have that LG only smaller. But the simple fact of the matter is that it's rubbish. Why? Because the HDMI output does NOT work!

  • quit complainin yes it does!
