LG LM9600, LM9500, LM8600, LM7600 and LM6700 LED LCD Series

LG came up with an impressive collection of brand new displays to be released this year, including a 55-inch OLED TV and a 84-inch 4K LED LCD HDTV.

The company has a history of releasing high-end products on the HDTV market, so these two displays were most likely meant to attract the attention to the company’s Plasma and LED LCD line-up for this year. LG brings a slew of new displays this year that are meant to compete on the market with products from companies like Samsung, Panasonic or Sony.

LG 2012 High-end HDTVs

If you’re looking for a quality display and have no budget limit you could take a look at the LG 55EM9600 OLED TV. This is one of the first OLED panels to be available for purchase and has made a lasting impression on anyone visiting the Consumer Electronic Show in January.

The LG 55EM9600 OLED display is just 4mm in thickness and comes with Full HD resolution as well as 3D capabilities. The 2D 1080p resolution is handled by what LG calls this year the Triple XD engine, which is meant to take care of three things, as the name suggests. LG’s Triple XD Engine will optimize contrast, upscale resolution for 2D content and enhance colors (Color Refiner). LG claims that the 55EM9600 comes with a 100,000,000:1 contrast ratio.

LG’s 55EM9600 OLED display features 3D capabilities, as any self-respecting, high-end display on the market in 2012. What’s impressive about the 3D side of things is that the 55EM9600 has a refresh rate of 0.1 microseconds. This translates into virtually no motion blur during fast moving/action scenes encountered in movies, amazing image clarity as well as enhanced colors.

The design is truly impressive with the 55EM9600. In addition to being a super thin panel, as you’d expect from an OLED TV, this one weighs only 7.5Kg.

The LG 55EM9600 OLED HDTV will become available all over the world in April/May this year and will be dubbed LG EM960V in UK.

LG 84LM9600 4K Passive 3D HDTV

The LG 55EM9600 OLED panel is not the only high-end display release for this year. If you are looking for a giant HDTV this year and again, have no budget limits, you can put this one on your shopping list.

The LG 84LM9600 is a LED backlit HDTV offering 4K (3,840 x 2,160 resolution) instead of the usual 1920 x 1080 Full HD resolution as most HDTVs this year. This means you can couple it with Sony's BDP-S790 Blu-Ray Player also to be released this Spring and enjoy 4K upconversion of your usual 2D content.

LG’s 84LM9600 LED LCD HDTV is also a 3D-enabled display featuring passive 3D technology and offering Full HD vertical 1080p resolution. That means you’ll be able to enjoy 3D content without using active shutter glasses.

LG LM9600 3D LED LCD HDTV

The flagship LED LCD series from LG comes in the form of the LM9600 series of 3D LED-backlit displays.

Aside from a gorgeous design, the flagship LM9600 series brings Cinema 3D (passive 3D technology), Smart TV ( 3D Zone, Netflix, HULU Plus), Full Nano LED technology and 2D-to-3D conversion.
