LG TVs are also in great demand among consumers. The company invests a lot of effort into the development and production of these multimedia devices of various formats. The consumer, in turn, appreciates the efforts of the brand.

LG (Live's Good) is a South Korean giant whose products have fans in all countries. The assortment of the company is filled with not only expensive, but also budget TV models, the technical characteristics of which are not much inferior to analogs with a high cost.

The modern TV market is overflowing with a variety of these devices, including those from well-known brands. However, LG multimedia devices have a number of features and undeniable advantages.

• Assortment range. LG manufactures TVs in a variety of shapes, sizes and prices. Each consumer will be able to choose the appropriate device according to their own preferences.
• Manufacturability. LG is one of the leaders in advanced LCD technology.
• Display. LG offers its consumers TVs with different types of displays. Today, models with OLED technology are in great demand. In budget options, there is Nano Cell technology. But not every person can see the difference between them.
• Diagonal. The LG brand produces TVs in various screen sizes. In this case, the buyer should start from the dimensions of the room where the device will stand.
• Screen resolution. Compact TVs are equipped with HD 720p format. If a consumer purchases a device for viewing digital channels, models with Full HD should be considered.
• Additional functions. Additional privileges include the option "parental control", Bluetooth connection, TV connection with a telephone, computer and stationary PC, the ability to connect to karaoke. A detailed diagram of the activation of various functions can be found in the operating instructions.
• Price quality.

Currently, LG has developed many TV models with different specifications. But first of all, the difference in the diagonal of the screens is visible. On the shelves of specialized stores, you can find models of 24, 28, 40, 42, 43, 49, 50, 65 inches. At the same time, 32-inch models are in great demand.

Plasma TV models of the last decade have received a very interesting 3D option. However, it is impossible to enjoy it with small TVs. Ideally, there will be devices with a large diagonal and the Simplink option, with which a home theater is connected.

In the past few years, consumers have been purchasing LG TVs equipped with a PCMCIA Card Slot. This is a connector that allows you to connect network cards, modem and hard drives, satellite and cable antennas. It is located on the rear panel, next to the HDMI outputs and auxiliary control buttons.

Thanks to the reviews from satisfied consumers, it was possible to compile a rating of the best models of LG TVs. Among the budget options, the LG 22MT49VF TV is in wide demand. This model has a viewing angle of 178 degrees. The small size allows the device to be installed both in the living room and in the kitchen.

LG 22MT49VF is ideal for cable and digital TV broadcasts, since there is support for DVB-T and DVB-C. Two built-in speakers produce quite decent sound. There is a USB output on the rear panel where you can plug in a flash drive or SSD. The only drawback is the lack of W-Fi and Smart TV.

The list of the best in-demand models also includes the TV model LG 43UH651V. This device is considered to be excellent in all respects, except for the size of the built-in memory, which causes 4K UHD movies viewed through a Smart TV to freeze for a few seconds.

The LG 65UH755V (65 inches) has received a positive assessment from consumers. This TV is equipped with LED backlighting for the slimmest design. The TV system on display supports MP3, WMA, MPEG4 formats.

Besides, the LG OLED55C6V model was included in the rating of the best TVs. It features a curved screen. The device system supports Smart TV. The diagonal is 54.6 inches. But when viewed, the screen seems to be much larger, and the reason for this is the unusual shape of the display. The undoubted advantage of the presented TV model is the presence of the 3D function. Four built-in speakers create surround sound. There are several HDMI and USB connectors on the rear panel.

OLED technology offers high contrast and brightness. Such models have a thinner screen. OLED technology is used in straight and curved TV designs. A notable feature is the large viewing angle.

Among these TVs is the LG OLED65C7V model. 4K UHD technology guarantees high-quality picture on the screen. Additional connectors on the side allow you to connect a variety of external devices. The list of options includes the ability to connect to the Internet TV via a wireless Wi-Fi network. The only drawback is the slowness of Smart TV. However, flashing the system will help fix the problem.

Today NanoCell uses a light-absorbing material that blocks long wavelengths by color filtering.

The best TV in the NanoCell lineup is the LG 49SM9000. According to all characteristics, this device occupies high positions. HDMI 2.1 has a redesigned interface for increased data throughput. The system has a built-in processor that guarantees the quality of dynamic scenes.

The remote control has a built-in gyroscope, so there is no need to point it directly at the TV. Besides, This model is equipped with a voice control function.

4K technology allows you to fully immerse yourself in the movie you are watching. The smallest rendering of all details guarantees high quality of the reproduced image.

One of these models is LG 75SK8100. This TV does not support the 3D option, but otherwise all parameters are highly appreciated. The system is equipped with Edge LED side lighting. The viewing angle is 178 degrees. Four built-in speakers guarantee high-quality surround sound. The price, of course, for this TV is quite high, but for such an investment the user gets a high-quality multimedia device that will last more than one year.

This series of TVs with LED display has long become familiar to society.TVs are distinguished by high-quality picture, built-in speaker system, Smart TV function. Among such devices, the LG 42LB652V is in great demand. There is an option to convert the image to 2D and 3D modes. Frame rates of 100Hz gives users the ability to watch movies in high definition (1920x1080). The only drawback is that when using Smart TV, a window with information about insufficient memory may appear on the screen. The usual flashing of the system will help to solve the problem.

Before buying a TV, you need to decide which display is more suitable. For example, OLED technology is responsible for the glow of the LEDs of each pixel on the screen. The difference between LED and OLED displays is the color contrast of the picture. But there is also QLED technology, which is considered their strong competitor. Its peculiarity lies in a metal nanofilter located between the backlight and the screen, which increases the image quality and color volume.

The next factor of choice is the diagonal of the display and the frame rate. On large TVs with a frequency of 50 Hz, fast scenes have some blur in the picture, so it is better to consider models with a frequency of 100 Hz. You can buy a 200 Hz TV, but it doesn't make much sense. Yes, the picture will be a little clearer, but not everyone can notice its superiority.

An important selection criterion is built-in speakers. Good sound is a must-have for any TV. LG often completes its developments with two speakers, but higher quality and more expensive models have 4 or 6 speakers. For small rooms, a power of 5 W is quite enough, but the manufacturer, wanting to create for his consumers the effect of complete immersion in watching a program or a movie, equips some TVs with 10 W speakers. But you should be aware that it is impossible to get high-quality surround sound using the speakers built into the TV. This requires the purchase of an external audio system.

An important factor in the choice is the location of the connectors for connecting additional devices. HDMI and USB are on the rear panel. But on the sides, the LG manufacturer made outputs for connecting game consoles, as well as connectors for some external devices. More expensive TVs have a port for internet connection and a smart card.

The size of the TV depends entirely on the size of the room where it will be located. It is important to check that the kit includes feet or a lockable stand. Power supplies are provided for modern TV models. They protect the TV system from sudden power surges. However, you cannot find them in every set. LG equips only expensive TVs with power supplies.

Do not forget about the availability of additional options. For families with small children, it is imperative that the TV has a Child Lock function. And for the most comfortable use of a multimedia device, Smart TV, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are required in the system.

There are several general rules for placing a TV in a particular room.

• The distance from the floor to the multimedia device should be 1 m.
• The minimum distance from the TV to a person should be 1.5 m.
• It is better to place the TV on the side of the window. This is the only way to avoid sun glare on the screen.

Traditionally, the TV is placed in the living room. It is there that the whole family can comfortably sit on the couch and in armchairs to enjoy watching an interesting movie. In this case, it is extremely important to position the TV correctly. To do this, you need to sit down opposite the place where the TV will stand, close your eyes, and relax.Then open your eyes and look directly. Wherever the eye falls, there is the central part of the TV screen.

A similar system is used to select a place for the TV in the bedroom. Only the position of a person should not be seated, but recumbent. It is better to hang the TV in the bedroom on special brackets on the wall. Brackets can be purchased at any hardware store.

The kitchen is another place where the TV is often placed. To find a convenient location, you need to sit at the dining table and look at the most convenient point in the kitchen. This is where the TV should be. But often kitchens are cluttered with household appliances, so finding a place for a TV is very difficult. The solution is a bracket or mobile stand.

Each individual LG TV has its own user manual. It specifies the technical characteristics of the multimedia device, describes all its options and capabilities. For example, the following step-by-step instructions are shown: how to turn on Bluetooth, turn off subtitles, set up the Internet, reboot the system. To find information on installing additional functions, you will have to go to the vastness of the world wide web. The main thing is to find out the TV model. The full name of the device can be found on the first page of the manual, in the TV menu and on the sticker on the back of the TV.

Many connoisseurs of YouTube video hosting enjoy watching their favorite videos on a large TV screen with great pleasure. But this requires a dedicated application. All TVs with Smart TV support have it. However, sometimes it becomes necessary to reinstall it. To do this, you need to go to the "SMART" menu, go to the "LG Store" section, find the "YouTube" application and click "Install". After downloading and installing the program, a corresponding notification will appear on the TV screen.

Browsers are installed in a similar way. And the "Clear Cache" feature ensures that Internet applications will work properly.

Those who enjoy digital TV are advised to purchase a universal TV remote control. It looks like the remote control that comes with the TV set, but there is a significant difference between the two.

Connecting and configuring a universal remote is easy. There are several ways to do this: automatic, manual and no code. The automatic method is suitable for most LG TVs. First you need to start the receiver, go to the "TV" section and wait for the indicator light to activate. Then click "Mute" to search and activate the found device.

The automatic method requires entering a code value. It can be "0000" or "1234". The receiver starts, "Start" is pressed on the remote control and the code is entered.

The activation method without a code is more complicated. It is necessary to turn on the TV and translate the remote control, holding together the "TV" and "OK" buttons for 2-3 seconds. After the specified time, the buttons turn on. Now you need to click on "Switch" and turn off the TV. Thus, the code is selected. To save the parameters, you must press the "TV" button.

Smartphones familiar to everyone can act as a universal remote control. Some firmware already has the required application, others need to install the appropriate program. The setting is made according to the prompts from the developers.

Thanks to the presence of HDMI connectors, you can connect the TV to a computer and laptop. In this case, a large TV screen will play the role of a widescreen monitor.

Unfortunately, every TV set malfunctions over time.A white spot appears on the screens of some multimedia devices, the screen starts blinking in others, ripples appear in the form of vertical stripes in others and the picture flickers.

On LG TVs, the presence of faults is expressed in several ways:

• the TV indicator flashes, but the screen does not activate;
• the indicator lights up and immediately turns off;
• when the TV is operating, extraneous sounds are heard: hum, whistle or clicks.

The search for a defect should begin with external accessories, and only after that move on to the internal component. First of all, you need to check the power cord and the operation of the control panel. If they are okay, the problem is most likely within the device.

You should familiarize yourself with common problems with LG TVs after a long period of use.

• Lack of food. The TV's electrical cable may be damaged, or the socket or plug is broken. And also it is necessary to check the voltage in the general network.
• Extraneous sounds. If, when turning on the TV, a clicking sound, a strange hum is heard, and the device itself is activated from the second or third time, the reason may be overheating of the structural parts. Similar symptoms occur when the power supply overheats and the safety lock is activated. In case of such problems, it is not recommended to disassemble the TV yourself. Better to contact the master.
• Incorrectly set operating mode. When the TV has been in standby mode, it turns on after a certain period of time. The TV remains on, but there are no external signs of activity. The solution to the problem is to press the "Standby" button on the remote control.
• Software failure. Any firmware requires a timely update. If this process was completed with errors, the operating system will not be able to work. The TV will turn on and off continuously. In this case, the system spontaneously reboots, but due to the lack of necessary files, the reboot process does not end. Reinstalling the firmware will fix the problem.
• Technical problems. Any part of the TV can become unusable. Only the master can determine the faulty element of the system by conducting a series of tests with special equipment. Trying to repair the TV with your own hands with such problems is not recommended. This can lead to even more problems.
• Burnout backlight and matrix. Malfunction of this nature is very rare. Symptom: lack of gaps, stripes on the screen, cobweb and lack of a corporate logo when starting the TV. The cost of such repairs is very high, it is easier to purchase a new TV set.
• Failure to comply with the rules of operation. When operating a TV, it is important to behave correctly. Please read the manual before using it. It won't take long, but it will keep you out of trouble. Even in cases where you need to remove dust from the screen or remove the TV from the bracket, it is better to read the operating rules first to find out how and how such actions are performed.

Replacing diodes, of course, is not included in this list, but, for example, if the sound disappears, you can fix the problem yourself. Most likely, the button on the remote control has been pressed to completely mute the sound, or headphones are connected.

If the built-in control panel does not work, the Child Lock function is most likely activated. The remote control will help to turn it off - the protection option does not apply to it.

If the remote control fails, you can download the universal remote control application to your smartphone. This will be enough for a while.

If the TV does not turn on, the power cord may be faulty. It is enough to change it to a new cable.

A bad picture may be due to a bad signal. Interference occurs due to bad weather or cable TV failure.You will need to call your TV provider for information.

Judging by the reviews from satisfied owners, LG TVs are among the best among competitors. They are easy to operate, filled with wide functionality, ready to serve their owners for more than a dozen years.

Some homes have small LG TVs, while others have huge structures that create a home theater. At the same time, everyone claims that the difference in the size of the picture does not affect the quality of the transmitted image in any way.

Parents of young children appreciate the Child Lock feature. It is convenient and easy to turn on, but the child cannot find ways to turn it off on his own.

In general, consumers claim that LG TVs are a real breakthrough in terms of home furnishings.
