The LG 42LN5400 doesn't stand to be as great as a value as the other sizes in the series. It does hold up against competition, it just doesn't stand out. The Samsung UN40F5000 is the closest competitor that sells for about the same price, but has 2 inches less of screen space. The Panasonic TC-L42E60 is more expensive but features Panasonic's Viera Connect Smart TV suite.
(Editor's Note: LG produces three other models in their 50 Series, the 42-inch 42LG50, the 47-inch 47LG50 and the 52-inch 52LG50. They have similar specs to the 37LG50 and this review can be applied to them also.)

Surprisingly, in this season of slinky bezels, the 37LG50 goes retro with a stocky two inch black frame on the sides and top. LG labels its 2-Way 4 Speaker System, "invisible," but the enclosure at the bottom of the TV still bumps down another two inches. The depth without the stand is about three and a half inches.

The LG 42SL80 has a 42-inch LCD screen. It's edge-lit, using LEDs. Most LCDs are backlit, which tends to make them thick. Edge-lit sets allow for thinner displays, but we've noticed they tend to have issues with screen uniformity. This particular model also boasts a 'single-layer design,' as an alternative to the thick plastic frames that still plague TVs with their awkward-looking bulkiness.
The SL80 series is a very thin 1.8-inch LCD that supports 1080p. It comes with . ridiculously thin: just a mere 1.15 inches. It has a 120Hz Motionflow feature that should help eliminate blurring. For the do-it-yourselfers out there, there's also a few calibration tests included on the TV.
To get the best March Madness viewing experience, you need a great HDTV. A new 55-inch LG LED LCD TV would certainly bring all of that heart pumping, college basketball action front and center—all for less than $1,400. (Hey, your bracket winnings could help pay for a big chunk of that, right?)

The appearance of the LG 32LD450 is entirely unremarkable, looking similar to just about every other affordable 32-inch LCD TV. The supplied table-top stand and front of the LG 32LD450 are made of gloss black plastic, with the only slightly unique feature being a long blue LED light at the bottom right, which lights up when the television is on. There were no alarming build quality issues on our review unit.
