New LG TV CS570 thoughts? Does anyone know anything about the LG 47CS570 47-Inch 1080p 120 Hz LCD HDTV? I can;t seem to find a single review on it...whether on Amazon or elsewhere. Anyone?

Mine is great. The picture is very good. I mean that because I have a panasonic 65vt50 and after watching that I can still enjoy watching this one. So it most not be that bad if my eyes can stand the change from the best you can buy to this tv. It's currently in my bedroom

Still too new I suppose. The best advice I have is to keep an eye on C-Net, Televisioninfo.com, and AVSforum.

Hi Jason, I actually just spent two hours on hold waiting for Sony to get to the bottom of the 24p/120hz issue for me, and this TV indeed runs at 60hz, which means it really is not True 24p, because the frame duplication is not equal for every frame, as it would be for 120hz (i.e. each of the 24 frames per second would be replicated five times per second as the TV refreshes 120 times in that second....24x5 = 120). This model is 60hz, so the frames replicate at something like 2:3:3:3:2 and so on (not quite sure how correct that is). I am actually very dissatisfied with this, because the whole reason I upgraded to this TV and Blu Ray was to have ACTUAL True 24p. With the Sony 32 and 37 inch models, they are falsely advertising completely...But most people would never notice a difference. 24p from Blu Ray still looks incredible on this TV, but there ARE times where something just doesn't QUITE look right...and I do notice it. I would have saved up a few extra hundred dollars for the larger, 120hz TVs had I known the technicalities of this back then....

Amigo, I can guarantee you that 2 months to get this TV, the picture quality is very good, and if it is 120hz, I see it buy =D

What about the L-Max graphics when attached to the tv? I'm looking for a back-up for the time when my L-Max goes again (already did once, and they did refurb it for $50, but for $15, this would be a much better option for all the cartridges we already have...we rarely play this on the road). Can anyone compare the graphics from the L-Max on the tv set to this on the same tv? I would think they'd be the same, since the cartridges are the same, but I'd love to know for sure...

Guy's,I need a little advice. I know nothing about LCD TV's. I'm moving into a house and ran into a guy that wants to sell a Samsung 40" 4061. The TV has been siting in his bedroom and is hardly used as he watches a bigger set in the living room. The set looks and works great and he's asking $500 for it. I think the set is several years old. Does anyone out there have any advice on buying this?Anything to look for? Is this a good price on a set with prices coming down this Christmas?Thanks for any input,Rudy

According to what Philips told me, they no longer made this model as of a year or so ago. I had audio issues that were "unusual" according to the tech. He was local, and I trusted him. However, he couldn't fix the issue, and Philips sent me a replacement. It was "reconditioned," and soon developed the same "rare" problem. They finally replaced it with a new one, but it was a different model (46") because they told me they no longer made the 47". It was a shame, I liked the 47" features (mainly the input selections and the digital audio out). The 46" is a good TV and I've been happy with it (no problems), and I DO like Philips, but this model has been put out to pasture.

Bill, thanks for replying, I agree with you. I could not wait anymore, and I bought mine at Costco a few weeks ago, $639 was just too good to pass up. I think it's fine for a room with little natural light, but yes is seems dimmer than my old 37" panasonic plasma. But I am very happy with the picture quality and it's bright enough for my setup. I really like the TV so far.Marcel.

I've seen the 47" at Frye's (in California), it looks nice. I want the 5500 too. Just can't decide on 42" or 47". The LG matt screen finish helps with daytime glare from a window. Samsungs are too shinny.

I purchased Samsung 58" plasma PNC58C7000 from amazon website. The seller: Beach Camera. I was busy with work and did not get to open the box until 10 days later. I was horrified to find the TV screen Damaged. Beach Camera refusing to return the TV.Any suggestions? I am stuck w a $ 2200 TV. ThanksSamsung PN58C7000 58-Inch 1080p 3D Plasma HDTV (Black)

I spoke online with an LG rep yesterday who told me that the native refresh rate is 60hz. The TV contains software and other features that mimic a refresh rate of 120hz, but this is not the same thing as a native refresh rate of 120hz. This is in keeping with the trend over the last several years of manufacturers artificially bulking up the refresh rate to try to convince you the picture is better.

Also purchased a Used-Like New set from amazon warehouse which said it had "minor cosmetic damage to housing" What damage??? I inspected the TV and the only "cosmetic issues" I found was dust! It was definately worth the purchase from amazon warehouse considering the $300 savings. Haven't posted a review, but if you would like calibration settings for your LN46a650, I definately recommend going to the AVS Forums @ avsforums.com. They have a whole thread there where people post their different calibration settings!

Apparently this TV is on back order. Amazon called today to try to get me to substitute the TV for the 55UB8500 model. Not sure if it's worth it yet, still researching and comparing the two models.

Has anyone played games on it?I just bit the bullet and bought the Samsung LN40A550 based on reviews. (Got ps3 for blue ray discs and I watch A LOT of movies.) I also like to play FPS and other games with a lot of movement and action. Has anyone noticed any sort of ghosting or blurring when they play games on it? Bad thing to wonder about AFTER I buy the tv, but I'm sure it'll still be worth it when I see my movies in a new-1080p-light.

You know i just realized this is a forum for the 720p model - I already have a 720p hdtv and I'm actually looking at the 1080p model. Looking for that one to drop another $100 (hint hint Amazon) before I jump in to get one.

yeah dont get this tv my friends has it. the problem with it is fuzzy picture. i did a comparison with my own 1080p Lns-4095d samsung tv. Even though my tv is relatively older it didnt have fuzzy pic. Also note that both were using hdmi cable. however the LN-T5265F did not want to swtich to a 1080p resolution. everytime we did it got static. also note that all tests were done using a ps3. I recommned a Samsung however not this one.

Thanks! I've been looking at the TVs in stores and I really like this one. There is a Sony model that is one up from this one, but it costs about $500 more.

I'd like to see some pictures from others as well. My 48" TCL's picture is so incredibly grainy, it's distracting. A HD TV shouldnt look like this when displaying 1080 content.
