What customers say about "Key Specs"

LG 55LH5750 Smart LED TV (2016 Model)

I love this tv, the resolution is great and playing my PS4 on it really makes me appreciate the tv even more.
Excellent color resolution, built in extras such as Amazon, YouTube, Netflix, our favorite TV. This is our third LG TV and each has exceeded our expectations for the $$. Superior HD quality
It is very very HD and crystal clear.
The HD picture quality on this set is excellent. If that is all you are after, this TV is for you.
Light weight packaging and easy to move around but I just wasn't to impressed with the overall quality of the actual tv resolution
Only negative is the wireless receiver when watching HD video on Netflix it won't load the highest resolution of the video. Only happens when watching things like planet earth.

Sony XBR55X850C 4K Ultra HD 3D Smart LED TV (2015 Model)

Sports viewing - I watched a ton of football on this over the weekend and it was without exception, exceptional. No motion blur whatsoever. Of course it's technically a 120hz panel
Awesome picture quality. Playing 4K 60 fps videos is treat for the eyes. Colors are breath-taking. Smooth picture.
Upscaling to 4K is excellent and justifies buying a 4K TV; HD looks better on this 4k TV than a native HD TV.
As a TV, it looks beautiful, excellent picture quality, stunning 4K ultra HD video
Picture is nice but has banding issues , back light bleeding (lots of it)

What customers say about "Video"

LG 55LH5750 Smart LED TV (2016 Model)

This TV has a lovely display. It is clear, bright and high contrast. It is a fabulous "television."
Has very nice display, clear picture, and high contrast.
Love It! Exactly what I expected clear color picture easy to function
Lousy color. Only green and red adjustments (my other LG had a dozen color adjustments).It never looks right! I adjust it every night to no avail.
Since this TV doesn't have good black levels, the contrast is also effected, and thus the picture suffers. I would give the overall picture quality, 5 out of 10 and black level 3 out of 10.

Sony XBR55X850C 4K Ultra HD 3D Smart LED TV (2015 Model)

BEAUTIFUL screen. I mean, glorious on all viewing scenes with deep contrast, inky blacks and brilliant whites.
For its price tag it gives a truly breathtaking 4k picture, superb upscaling quality to 1080p source material, great 3D, and can show a really stunning Netflix HD and 4k picture.
The Colors are... Incredible and beautiful. That TRILUMINOS display Sony has makes a HUGE difference to the colour quality and not in an 'overly saturated' way, but in a way that makes the colours draw you into the scene, where appropriate.
More muted scenes do not get oversaturated and colourful scenes are just a joy to watch with deep colour detail and rich, vibrant (and importantly, faithful) colour reproduction
Darker corners about 1-2inches each end despite changing brightness and display settings.
This tv has major lag / delays when rendering sports and motion is blurry as well.

What customers say about "Audio"

LG 55LH5750 Smart LED TV (2016 Model)

Sound is extremely good for internal TV speakers (turn on cinema sound mode for room filling audio)
Decent sound without having to use any other sound sources.
Sound poor and no way to connect headphones.
Nice TV, sound quality not the best.
Sound is weak, generally LG TVs lack decent sound, and really should be hooked up to speakers w/ amp or some type of sound bar system.

Sony XBR55X850C 4K Ultra HD 3D Smart LED TV (2015 Model)

Sound is fairly good for a TV this thin.
As for sound it is not half bad for a "TV" but I suggest a good sound bar.
The sound is actually pretty good. Even at pretty high volumes it's distortion free. I'd say you definitely don't "need" to add additional speakers or a soundbar, but obviously they will help.
Sound is clear but missing the bass and like all thin TV's needs an external speaker system.
Great picture easy to set up and navigate only con is the sound could be better

What customers say about "Interfaces"

LG 55LH5750 Smart LED TV (2016 Model)

I have an external plugged straight into the TV via the USB port and it plays every video file I have thrown at it thus far.
It has sliding picture and can play video in USB.
Unfortunately only two hdmi ports.... But a great TV overall.
It only has two HDMI ports which is fine for us but others may need more.
Only 2 HDMI and 1 composite. Today's world needs at least 3 HDMI 2 USB and 2 composite. Overall happy with this product..

Sony XBR55X850C 4K Ultra HD 3D Smart LED TV (2015 Model)

Android TV is ok. It does the job and the voice control is good
The Android OS and built in app is very good and easy to use.
The capabilities that I was looking for are fairly standard ones: Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, DLNA support, Google Cast, USB, 4K upscaling, HDMI ARC for the receiver, and an HDMI port for plugging in a laptop. This TV had everything that I needed.
The WIFI setup is easy. It supports Bluetooth. You can download apps.
Android OS is a pro and a con. Its relatively sluggish and getting to menu options is a bit cumbersome. I could do common tasks like access picture and audio options much quickly on my dumb LG tv.
Can't have the TV always start on a specific HDMI port, it starts off on the android screen or where you left off last.
