LV5400 by Carol (Dec, 2011)The one thing I am having some trouble with is finding a picture size that looks right and doesn't leave too much of the screen dark.
LV5400 by J.-Harris (Nov, 2011)Crisp-as-hell screen, I found that it has nice display properties (was able to sync it well with my directv for resolution/screen size, etc).

Apps
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by PeteEd (Dec, 2011)The TV remote is easy to use and Netflix and Amazon movies were incredibly easy to set up (I already had a wireless network set up).
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 20% by by Amy (Dec, 2011)Since I've mentioned Hulu, I should also note that although there is a Hulu app, it is for Hulu Plus, which is a subscription based (read: paid) service.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Daveman (Jan, 2012)This tv has great quality the apps run well I do wish it had pandora and that the browser had flash other than that it's a great product with a great user interface.
Content
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Lenie (Dec, 2011)I watch hockey on the LED screen and it looks amazing!! I was able to purchase this at a price I have yet to see again plus we got a free smart LG remote worth over $60 add Amazon Prime shipping into the mix and we got a great deal.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Mohit-Seth (Nov, 2011)I truly recommend this product to people who are looking for a great television for playing games and watching HD movies.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 20% by by Magnatude_Pop_PopI played a few blu ray movies and they looked spectacular.
Panel
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 80% by by Inspected-by--5--Sam (Dec, 2011)My other monitors are IPS panels so I was very worried about a non-IPS LCD panel and viewing angle.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by C.-GRANT (Nov, 2011)The contrast, color palette and resolution are astounding, even at two feet away.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Russell-Dominique (Feb, 2012)After watching a few 3D TVs on display I decided 3D was not worth it.
Picture quality
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Braxar (Nov, 2011)Video games are clear and crisp with no motion lag and BLACK BLACKs, and the same goes for your favorite epic blu-rays.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by AP (Dec, 2011)Out of the box TV worked and the picture was stunning clear and sharp.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by Ben (Dec, 2011)The Panasonic had the worst picture, although I really like Panasonic as a whole and we've had excellent history with their phones, TV's and camera's, I was disappointed with the picture sharpness and brightness.
Video
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 80% by by Inspected-by--5--Sam (Dec, 2011)The 60hz 1080p picture is much easier on the eyes than my old plasma.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 20% by by Amy (Dec, 2011)Although the video that plays automatically changes each time you open the application, I have yet to see one without obscene video and or cursing.
LG LV5400 47" | Rated 100% by by jake (Nov, 2011)The Trumotion feature is not to my liking, as it makes the picture look like some soap opera, taking away from that "cinema feel.
