Today, anyone buying a new TV for their home will definitely give LCDs a first preference, no matter how small their budget is size.

The LCD technology has been evolving rapidly and we've seen the quality of LCD screens go up significantly over the years. These days we see a lot of new features being added to the TV and on the other hand, they've started to get more affordable too. What does the LG XCanvas bring to the table? Let's explore.



Design

Dressed in black, the LG XCanvas 32LB9 looks stunning with a glossy piano-finish front-bezel and the sharp lines that run across its borders. The only touch of color is found on a sturdy plastic stand that allows the TV to be tilted 178 degrees to the left or right. It has sharp features with just a single curve running below the screen. A full set of buttons for all functions are placed on the right side of the TV, just in case the remote won't work.

Recently purchased LG XCanvas LCD tv 42" with HT302 Home theater system for Rs 83000/-. Great deal . Although it is nt Full HD tv but with high contrast ratio of 10000:1 , it beats Sony and Samsung in price:performance ratio.

Have an LG lcd that went kaput within 14 months. They say that i have to change the panel itself. And pay 10000 for it. Tis is the quality of products that LG is selling. Stay away and stick with brands that have a name in the market and some reliability. You dont want to be stuck with a white elephant on your hands

LG- Samsung- Sony etc etc have ganged up to fix prices and rape indians in LCD TV market. Rigged up Prices are artificially high-while in other countries the same manufacturers sell these fror US $ 500.i.e. 20k. The best deal i found was a good 32inch LCD Bravia-KLV-53 U-300 for 34k from Ghaffar Market, now it must be cheaper.

Nice feautures does anbody know a 32 inch or 46 inch LCD Panel with a build in Media Player?

Sandy | Utrecht | 05/02/08 01:59 PM | Report abuse

nice article, very informative. I still have a doubt about widescreen LCD - We use cable-signal, is there any way we can zoom, so that the 4:3 signal fills the width of the 16:9 screen and the height is cut from top and bottom. So that we dont see broad faces, thats irritating. 2nd. Do Sky TV and Dish TV provide 16:9 format. 3rd. is it worth to get a LCD panel? i mean with all the broad faces, is it just a thing of fashion for now, in India. why i am asking is coz we are looking for a 32" TV as a 2nd TV, we already are happy with our LG 29 TV (awesome surround sound speakers, which doubled the cost of the TV!).

Yes you have option for 4:3 , 16:9 as well as zoom, the 4:3 image will be streched to 16:9 but u cant find much stretching if you buy 32" and above.If u start seeing in LCD tv,u will never be able to watch convensional crt's.The CRT's will have flicker as its not 100hz,lcds are flicker free and the images are life like, additionally you can also use the 32" lcd as a computer monitor.download hd content and see the difference.Tata sky will give better results with lcd than convensional cable.
