Compare Prices : LG 50PG6000 - Expert Reviews

Award: Recommended!

Review summary: That's right! LG surprises us all with an affordable plasma TV measuring in at 32 inches.

Verdict: The 32PG6000 is not a perfect TV by any means. But it's certainly a very worthwhile – and remarkably affordable - addition to the 32in scene, with its plasma technology offering distinct advantages over 32in LCD models that ensure it's far from the ...

Review summary: This small plasma proves a great all-rounder

Pros: Plasma tech, "single pane" styling, kind to Freeview and DVD, depth to high-def images, easy to use

Cons: No Full HD resolution, some jagged edges, some image retention

Review summary: The new skinny LG TV on the block.

Cons: Reflective glass screen; Weak (for plasma) black levels

Verdict: Not a particularly stunning performer, but then you can't expect that for the price. A solid entry-level set with a high-end design
