Released February, 2011
The Pros:WiFi connectivity setup is quick and easy. Picture stays clear and watchable even in direct sunlight thanks to the matte screen. Excellent overall picture quality with vibrant colours and decent black levels.
The Cons:Firmware updates erase any saved wireless network settings. The free LG web apps are for the most part not great. Intelligent Sensor function more often than not just puts brightness settings to low.

#lg_42lv5500 The cons you have given as apposed to many others reviews, and your own pros are not enough, to justify the score you have given. that is an unfair score for a well above 75 percentile TV
