LW5300 by Timothy-Mc (Nov, 2011)With 3D, I think bigger is better as far as the screen size is concerned.
LW5300 by Chazz (Dec, 2011)The 3d is absolutely fantastic and I really like the 2d to 3d upscaling.
thickness
LW5300 by Big-Mac (Nov, 2011)It is super thin, the picture is great and the trumotion combined with the 120hz make the image look TOO REAL at times.

LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Henrique-Costa-MarquesMy 3D active device handles better the colors (more brilliant) and I can stay watching the movies without feeling sickness after 40 minutes.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Henrique-Costa-MarquesMy review will be based on the 3D technology interoperability between a 3D camera and this device.
3d
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by J.-Hedgepeth (Nov, 2011)So, the deciding factor of whether or not to convert something is really whether or not the level of 3d is worth the effort of having to wear the glasses.

Content
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by bp8913 (Dec, 2011)The blu-ray player was a nice bonus and I've already watched a few blu-rays on there with stunning results.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by DANIEL-A-LIZARRAGA-V (Jul, 2012)I haven't used the blue-ray player because I own and Xbox and a PS3, which I use to make the TV a Smart TV and to play Blu-Ray movies respectively.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Joseph-Provenzano--thejoep (Feb, 2012)I did this and my PS3 gaming is much better now, especially with the PS Move.
Movies
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by MissE (Sep, 2011)Its a great item fantastic picture and I love being able to watch movies in 3d whether its on cable or from the blu ray.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Miguel-Zaera (Mar, 2012)The 4 lenses are perfect gift for family and Bluray player is excellent for speed reading.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Robert-Frazier (Dec, 2011)The effect isnt as startling as a movie made for 3D, but it does give it depth and makes blu ray movies like Avatar and speed racer more fun to watch.
Audio quality
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 100% by by Jay-K (Nov, 2011)It is hooked up to a surround sound system so speaker quality was not a concern.
LG LW5300 42" | Rated 80% by by J.-Pearson--A-Family-Guy (Nov, 2011)I bought my first LG HD TV about 5 years ago (42LB5D) which also is a really good set that still works flawlessly and still has good picture quality and sound, no issues with this set at all and the surround sound my old 42LB5D produces is awesome at times I think my 7.1 surround system is on, but the sound comes from my old LG.
