LG’s top-of-the-line LED-backlit 240Hz, THX-certified, HDTV with 2:000,000:1 contrast ratio in an ultra-slim design
Unlike LED HDTVs that use “edge” lighting technology, LG’s LHX uses a full array of LED backlights with local dimming technology for precise picture control–resulting in deeper blacks and a wide color gamut. And, because it’s wireless, the LHX allows for greater room design flexibility. Its cutting-edge style can blend beautifully into any home environment.
Entertainment Freedom
The 55LHX wireless model allow installers the freedom to place the HDTV virtually anywhere in the room — without messy wires. To achieve this wireless experience, LG uses a supplied media box to transmit an uncompressed Full HD 1080p signal with virtually no interference or delay directly to the TV. The HDTVs can receive a wireless signal up to 30 feet away, allowing consumers to hook all content sources (such as a cable or satellite box, Blu-ray disc player, game console and home theater systems) into one box.
Enhanced Picture Quality
The 55-inch LHX model features superior picture quality with an elegant ultra-slim design — less than one-inch thick at its thinnest point. This unit has attained THX Display Certification. This certification ensures that the 55LHX delivers exceptional images, bringing a more immersive and enjoyable movie, broadcast and video game experience to consumers’ living room. Since THX certification begins during the initial product design phase, every product detail is meticulously mapped to THX standards and tested in laboratory and home theater environments to ensure quality, usability and compatibility.
By presenting HD and standard-definition content at the maximum resolution with the correct color and luminance level, the LHX provides consumers a crisper, clearer image. To achieve this, LG uses a full-array LED backlighting system with local dimming technology, for precise picture control resulting in deeper blacks, wide color gamut and an incredible 5,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. This model also incorporates TruMotion 240Hz technology for smooth motion during fast-action scenes.
ISFccc Calibration Options
Those seeking advanced calibration based on their own home theater environment, will appreciate LG’s ISFccc option. The professional ISF calibration helps to deliver picture quality, representing what filmmakers intended viewers to see.
Using the LG Expert Mode, an ISF-certified calibration technician will use professional equipment to calibrate the HDTV using ISF parameters based upon individual home theater environments and ambient lighting. Once calibrated to the optimal setting, the calibrations are saved as ISF “Day” and ISF “Night” modes. With ISFccc, LG offers a superior 10-point calibration. This provides an extra level of precision for gray scale calibration resulting in a more uniform picture.
Energy Savings
With Intelligent Sensor, both wireless models automatically optimize the picture to the lighting conditions in the room for a personalized and more enjoyable viewing experience; and potential energy savings. The LHX series is Energy Star 3.0 compliant, and with LG’s “Smart Energy Saving” package, which consists of features such as backlight control options and video mute, LG further paves the way toward greater energy savings, while also allowing consumers to customize their viewing experience.
The 55LHX will be available soon at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $4,799 and will be available later this Fall.
