LG 32LE4900 Review

The LG 32LE4900 comes from the company’s latest LE4900 line of HD ready LCD televisions. Aside from this 32-inch unit, other available screen sizes include 37 inches and 42 inches. This line was launched by LG to attract budget-conscious consumers, as this comes with an affordable price tag. However, this unit is never short of some of today’s most sought after features in a television.

Its display panel is capable of exhibiting high-definition images with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. Flickers and motion blurs commonly occur when watching sports telecasts, action movies or anything with fast-moving images. However, a screen refresh rate of 50Hz on the LG 32LE4900 helps deal with those. This also helps optimize the screen for video gaming, as what you do on the controls immediately shows up on the display.

An impressive dynamic contrast ratio of 2000000:1 allows for rendering of darker black levels. As a general rule, the higher the contrast ratio, the better the details and the more realistic images become. Helping to retain image quality is the LG 32LE4900 wide viewing angle. Such feature comes in handy when the room gets packed out with your family and friends for some movie time, making every seat the best seat.

Depending on the availability in your area, the 32LE4900 is capable of picking up high-definition programs. And these additional programs may be enjoyed free of charge. That’s because LG has integrated into this unit a Freeview digital tuner. Then there’s also the innovative NetCast feature, which allows you to go online without a PC. Now you can access a variety of web content like videos, photos, and others with your TV.

This LG 32LE4900 LCD television is DLNA compatible. This means that the TV may be networked with other DLNA compatible devices for seamless multimedia sharing in the home. Additionally, it comes fitted with 4 HDMI ports, which allows for better construction of a home entertainment center. It’s because HDMI permits high-definition signals to be transmitted between devices without signal degradation.

But if you don’t want your home to be cluttered by all those cables when creating your home entertainment center, fret not. You’ll be glad to know that this LG offering comes with a wireless AV link. Now it’s possible to make some HD devices to work with the LG 32LE4900 TV minus the cables. Simply attach a wireless transmitter to the TV and compatible devices, such as a Blu-ray disc player or a computer gaming console.

Files stored on your USB-compatible pocket devices may be played back using this LG 32LE4900 TV in full HD quality. That’s because it comes with a built-in high-speed USB 2.0 jack. Simply plug in your device – digital camera, camcorder, MP3 player, USB flash memory, etc. – and share away your files. Display your photos in JPEG, showcase your HD videos in DivX, and dance to your music tracks in MP3.

The LG 32LE4900 comes with an ultra-slim profile that makes it perfect either mounted on the wall or propped up on its base. Such profile is achieved because of the backlighting technology applied: edge-lit LED backlighting. Such strategically places the LED lights only on the TV’s borders. It allows for the construction of a thinner body, as well as a more efficient consumption of energy.
