Great review for the LF7700
November 20th, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
The LG LF7700 has in the past received lots of brilliant reviews and recently it got another one to add to the prize cabinet. In the latest issue of What HiFi Sound &Vision , the 47" LF7700 was reviewed as part of a group test and was awarded a well deserved 5 out of 5 stars. The review is very complimentary and here's a little snippet for you:
“The excellence of LG' s menus makes a mockery of those by many other manufacturers, and makes set up less intimidating.”

Freeview National Retune Day
September 29th, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
This Wednesday, September 30th, is Freeview national retune day. That means anyone with a Freeview digital TV or set-top box (including homes with Top-Up TV and BT Vision) must retune it on or after that date. However if you own an LG TV with freesat HD built in (for example the LF7700) then you won't need to worry about the retune.
Why is this retune necessary? Because Freeview is making technical preparations for the introduction of Freeview HD later this year, and to make Channel Five as widely available as the other terrestrial channels at the time of digital switchover.
Ater retuning,...

THE LG 42LF7700 FreeSat TV gets our bloggers approval
June 17th, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
A couple of our bloggers were able to get their mitts on the new LG LF7700 LCD with built-in FreeSat, I thought I'd take a look at their findings..
RegHardware gave it a stand up 80%:
The moment you switch over to BBC HD, everything seems to snap into focus – colours are bolder and the increased level of detail is immediately obvious. Alex Kingston’s frizzy hairdo in HD really is a sight to behold. The real test was to fire up some high-definition Blu-Ray and HD DVD films. The results here were extremely good – colours were bright and vivid, but...

LG warms up for Twenty20 with Fantasy Cricket
June 3rd, 2009 by Dave@LGUK
It's June and the Cricket season is here and as big fans LG have created a special Fantasy Cricket World Cup game to celebrate. As someone who's never really gotten into Cricket, I'm using this as an opportunity to try and gain some insight into the rules/scoring system and as it's based on the World Twenty20 Cricket tournament itself, LG's game should be a good learning experience!
Using the tournament for it's structure means the points part of the game will start after the first group stage match on Friday, 5th June, and will run through to the final match...
