The 47LX9500 is part of LG’s flagship LX9500 line of 3D ready TVs and it captures you with a stunning 47 inch, 480Hz LED backlit LCD display. Crushing the 1” barrier once again, this svelte model from LG is all set to flatter all the customers in the HDTV market; both for its trendy exterior as well as its imposing features. The ground-breaking ultra-slim 8.5 mm bezel allows the viewer to take in the rich colors and vibrant images on the screen without being sidetracked by a thick bezel. LG has taken a minimalist approach in the design of the 47LX9500 with a graceful glassy look for this 3D TV. Although LED-LCD TVs are becoming more widespread, but only a handful of top models like the 47LX9500 use a “full array” backlight — the gold bearing for picture contrast and black levels. These LEDs are grouped into 216 zones which can independently shine, dim, or darken. This precisely controlled “local dimming” enables the TV to simultaneously display everything from the velvety black of the galaxy to the brilliant white of sunny beach day — even in the same scene. This helped ease one of the chief drawbacks of LCD displays, specifically the backlight bleeding in dark regions of the screen.
The final verdict on picture quality will have to be on hold as no one has gotten a closer look on this TV. On the other hand, it should be mentioned that the 47LX9500 is a THX certified 3D television which means that it passed more than 30 rigorous picture quality tests to ensure top-notch image resolution and color accuracy. What is even better is that it has an automatic THX settings modulator. THX settings are changed accordingly during daytime and for night viewing. The 47LX9500 has a standard resolution of 1080p, i.e. 1920 x 1080 that is pretty much what is offered with other LED TVs in the market.
If you have a wireless network at home, you don’t need any messy cables for your 47LX9500. You can just add LG’s Wi-Fi adapter and you can automatically watch your internet content on the TV’s wide screen. You can watch movies from your Netflix® Instant Queue, download high-def on-demand titles from Vudu®, or even initiate a video call with a friend using Skype™. The LG 47LX9500 has a great number of A/V ports counting 4 HDMI ports, 2 sets of component inputs, a VGA port and 2 USB ports. This television set also sustains DLNA, which means that you will be able to effortlessly stream media to your 3D TV via devices that support DLNA. Other bells and whistles consist of a Wii like remote called the ‘Magic Wand’ for interacting with the TV and the Clear Voice II feature that boosts the volume and clearness of dialogues in movies and shows without disturbing the background music/sound effects.
