LG releases the new 2012 flagship LED television, LG LM9600 – Part 2

Features

The LM9600 is an extremely thin television with LED sources behind the pixels throughout the screen which should give an extremely bright picture quality, and it does. The problem comes in the blacks. For a deeper, real-like picture, experts emphasis on deeper black, the more black the better. However, even in the presence of what LG calls a Full Array with Local Dimming, the device fails to provide the black’s quality we can easily find in Sony HX929 and Sharp Elite Pro.

The whites have their miseries to cater to. The television leaves a greenish hue on whites and greyish hue on overall colours. Although the difference is not really measurable to new eyes, but if someone has upgraded from Sony or Panasonic, he is in for a surprise, and not a good one.

The LM9600 is passive 3D, which is its strongest suit and something that most viewers like in television. Due to the fact that it has a passive 3D view, LG has managed to provide six 3D view polarized glasses with the set, where others max out at four. Moreover, the glasses are cheap to purchase and easy to find in the market. The 3D works smooth and does not have any interlacing or crosstalking issues. Most people would notice ghosting and crosstalk effects before they become concerned by line structure, and so prefer passive 3D to active.

LM9600 comes with a new feature in gaming. If someone is a gaming enthusiast, the feature will be the most attractive. In a dual-player mode, the screen instead of splitting into two parts, gives an overlapping image for both players, which is viewable to both players. Though these special polarized glasses are a little hard to find in the market and online, a simple recipe to make one at home is: swap the right-side lens of one glasses-set with the other’s left-side one, and you get yourself a 2-playerh separate screen on LM9600.
