LG releases the new 2012 flagship LED television, LG LM9600 – Part 3

The 3D vision can be switched on by the dedicated button on the remote. Moreover, there are three more viewing options, THX mode for brighter picture quality in well-lit room, cinema and ISF mode. All these options are flexible with custom settings, however, repeated tests showed that both THX and ISF modes did have much of a difference at best.

The television is loaded with applications from NetFlix to Hulu Plus, YouTube, Pandora and many more. There is a web browser to surf the internet. The scroll ball on the Magic Motion remote works seamlessly with the browser. The scroll bar works outside the browser but in a limited manner, for example, it helps select an app from menu but does not work in the settings.

LG provides its own app store that goes by the name of                LG Smart World. Though it has majority of miniature games, it has some good stuff as well like NBA Game Time/Game Center and XOS College Sports. Though most of them are free, the user needs to create an ID and password on the Smart World to download them.

The LM9600 is equipped with a dual-core processor that helps render the picture faster and smoother. The brains of the new television passed several graphics-intensive tests with flying colours, without any noticeable stutter or clipping. It was able to properly interpret a 24p signal without stuttering or wonkiness, and it de-interlaced a 1080i signal without defaulting to wavy lines or moire effects.

Conclusion

Though the new LG LM9600 is laced with new features including software applications and it incorporates a very futuristic design with a very thin bezel, when its price is considered one is forced to rethink options in the market.

At $3,300, the television comes at a premium and there are surely many options in the market that offer a better picture quality than this.
