The stand at its widest part is 26.5cm
just noticed that the bbci player app has finaly been activated.
the sound is to low to listen to though even at full whack.

Lovely TV/monitor but i could never go back to 60hz after experiencing 120hz
To me its like night and day.
Huge difference in how smooth games move.

Well sadly mine did go back as the light bleed was too bad.
In real world use it is rarely noticeable but for an expensive TV (for it's size) I could not accept it
It is a shame as the picture quality was excellent.
Noticing some users comments on here about various processing rates (60 Hz 120Hz) etc; in my experience it mostly down to the implementation. i.e a well implemented 60 may be better than a poor higher rate. Also we all see things different
Don't let my experience put people off, it is a cracking bit of kit
As an aside, I could have picked one of these up in person at a Curry's 10 miles from my home, HOWEVER Curry's return policy for items bought from a shop can only be returned if unopened or faulty. OK, mine had a fault but that could have been a painful, subjective debate in a well lit store!
If ordered online for delivery you are covered by the distance selling regs and can return with ease

oh that is a shame.
are you going to chance another one or have you been scared off? lol
Lovely looking monitor really like the looks of this ... have you played any Xbox 360 games in 3d on it? Do the limited Xbox titles that are 3d work on it? Also and sorry to be a pain with lots of questions do pc titles work in 3d on it too?
Thanks in advance
Thanks in advance
I'm thinking of getting this, or the cheaper (same screen?) LG 27" 27MS53V, solely for TV usage.
I'll mainly be watching TV through it, but I also will be watching some Sky via a digitsender via the scart port.
Are you able to comment on :-
1) General TV (HD) quality?
2) The screen is matt and not shiny (reflective)?
3) What's the EPG and menu like? Quick? I know some TVs are very slow and clunky.
4) Have you fed in any analog sources? eg: A video recorder over scart or something? How did it fair?
5) The audio appears good on paper, 2x7w. I'm not expecting amazing things, but for a bedroom is the volume/clarity good enough?
6) Any other opinions/thoughts?
Thanks...

Sorry for the delay only just seen your reply.
1) General TV (HD) quality?: The built in freeview HD looks stunning, not tried the built in freesatHD. SkyHD looks very very good also.
2) The screen is matt and not shiny (reflective)? it's glossy. not as reflective as some tv's.
3) What's the EPG and menu like? Quick? I know some TVs are very slow and clunky.: not really used it as i have skyHD (you can record tv to an external hard drive if you wish.
4) Have you fed in any analog sources? eg: A video recorder over scart or something? How did it fair? only analog source i've seen is the built in none freeviewHD channels and depending on the channel can look rather good.
5) The audio appears good on paper, 2x7w. I'm not expecting amazing things, but for a bedroom is the volume/clarity good enough?: the built in speakers are fine and one of the presets is "clear voice" so dialog is clear. i have mine connected to a speaker system.
obviousy i am biased because i bought the tv and its my baby
but its nothing short of stunning. how it fairs with a digisender is anyone guess but i spose no worse than other tv's in its class.the computer/ laptop hooked up to it is lovely.
it says in the listings it has 3 HDMI's but its actualy 2 so be careful if thats an issue for you. the built in web browser is very fast and easy to use with the magic remote (pointer). its also plays "every"movie file (usb or network ) including our friend .mkv
I cant comment on the cheaper version but there must be a reason its cheaper so choose that at your own risk.
best tv i've ever owned, good luck in your choice.
^^ Can you definately get to Netflix through it?
I had a look at one in a shop and was put off by the glossy screen, so preferred the cheaper model without the glossy finish. Unfortunately it has a black plastic version of the lovely stand, and no Smart remote

yes netflix and iplayer good to go. even a free trial of Nowtv powered by sky.
only you can judge how reflective screen will be in regards to position etc.
my window is behind the screen so its a none issue for me. i can have a light on above and theres no reflection though
We have window(s) on the opposide side of the room at just the same level as the TV will be, and prob the appropriate angle tooyes netflix and iplayer good to go. even a free trial of Nowtv powered by sky.

What do you think of the magic remote? (ie: My cheaper version won't come with it)

the magic remote is a god send and i couldnt use a tv without it now.
if the tv is in the bedroom i spose you could always close them almost shut while viewing. after all its a bedroom not a living room

And using the magic remote from 7-8ft away? Practical?
very practical. it's easier infact.
Grrr! Damn you!
And what do you really use it for in practice (that a normal remote can't do sufficiently well)?
Soldato
It does look rather good.
I also find the iPlayer app to be pretty **** on my Samsung too, the volume is a right pain. The gaps between the volume levels are huge.

i thing i like to use it the most for is surfing the net in bed lol.
but even down to switching imputs as i use mine for pc monitor also or console.
this tv is up there with high end bigger screens but also manages to be a great pc monitor. it took me 3 years to find a good tv like this.
and it was worth the wait.
How far do you sit away from it when browsing (in bed)? Surely the text would be too small to see more than 4-5ft away?
