Full Review
It can be a bit tough finding a decent HDTV that is less than 40 inches and still capable of handling 1080p resolution. Fortunately the LG 37" lcd tv handles full HD content and does a wonderful job doing so.
One of the interesting aspects about this TV that separates it from the rest is that it weighs only 40 pounds. The smaller size allows more options for TV placement and the swivel stand that it has can rotate up to 20 degrees left or right to avoid the need of relocating your seats. The viewing angle is also a lot better than some of the other models out there, but things should look best at 45 degrees.
Because of its smaller size, no Picture-in-Picture feature has been included in the LG 37" lcd tv. The backlight starts off a bit bright, but it has plenty of picture modes that you can use to find the best settings that look best for you.
What really stands out though is the above average sound quality in the LG 37" lcd tv's integrated speakers. The audio menu is pretty basic, but it offers 5 sounds modes depending on the type of broadcast and a Clear Voice feature. An SRS TruSurround XT option is also available, but it requires the Clear Voice feature to be turned off.
Watching high definition broadcasts and Blu-ray movies are quite an experience with both the image and sound very good, but standard definition material has poor handling of black levels and offers less latitude.
It does have several nifty ports including 2 HDMI inputs, a USB port and even an RGB input along with S-Video, but no sign of an Ethernet port. The power consumption is exceptional at just over 70 watts and the standby feature that reduces it to 1 watt is a rather welcoming feature.
Product Summary
The Good
The LG 37" lcd tv features full 1080p resolution, has some great picture modes, and superb sound quality. The lightweight and small profile combined with a large viewing angle and swivel stand allows you to place the TV in spots where other TVs may not perform as well.
The Bad
No Ethernet port and Picture-in-Picture features are found in the LG 37" LCD TV. SD resolutions aren't handled very well.
Bottom Line
If space is an issue and HD transmissions or 1080p are a must, this small and affordable LG 37" LCD TV.
