Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the excellent picture quality and affordable price of the 49" Class (48.5" Diag.) - LED - 1080p - HDTV. Many appreciate how easy it is to set up, making it a great choice for those who want a hassle-free experience. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the limited number of HDMI ports, the stand's design, motion blur, and the 60Hz refresh rate.

    I was looking for a TV bigger than the 40 in unit I have had fir the last 1o years or so, but needed it ti fit into a built in entertainment unit. This TV fit nicely, but I thought I was getting more HDMI and USB ports, I did not look closely enough. Color is good, picture great, sound is okay.

    This TV has a good picture quality and is easy to set up. The biggest complaints on this tv (not deal breakers) are that the speakers are on the back (to save bezel space), and there are only 2 HDMI cable inputs. This is fairly limiting when you have a Cable box, Blu-ray player, and some sort of other device (such as Apple TV, Xbox One, PS4, etc...)

    I had a very strange requirement when I went to buy this TV... It needed to fit into a cabinet in the house we just moved into. This set fits perfectly, almost like it was made for it. This is the 2nd LG TV we have, the other is a Smart TV with 3d... but for just a standard TV this set has an awesome picture. The colors are sharp and the 1080p images seem to jump out, just like the more expensive model. I did pickup a sound bar because the built-in speakers are woefully weak. Overall we're very happy with this set and it looks great in the cabinet.

    This TV is perfect for me. It has a big screen without being too big. My shows, movies and games are all crisp and clear. Since I use a game system for streaming video services, Internet, etc I saved a lot of money on this since it lacks the smart tv features. My only gripe is that it only has two hdmi ports. Hot tip: don't wall mount your TV. Keep it on a stand 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 feet off the ground. This way you won't strain your eyes by constantly looking upwards.

    Because it's simply not worth buying a 4k ultra Hd tv due to the fact there is no programming for it available through normal cable / blu Ray. Even Xfinity HD doesn't maximize 1080p capabilities...this tv is pretty much what you would want. Everything works great and it's easy to use. My only complaint is that the "metallic frame" is not at all as sexy as they make it look on the box....it's a completely different and is just a silver colored plastic...still looks alright.

    We have owned, and loved LG products for more than 13 years. This TV we purchased is our 3rd flat panel LG and we put this 49" in our bedroom so we can see it better, and to replace our aging 37". As is our habit, we went directly to Best Buy. Best products, best service and best prices have kept us coming back for all our electronics. We are purchasing a sound bar to use with this TV as (he) has a hearing problem. As usual, the picture is the best, set up was easy and now we can watch the big screen from the comfort of our own bedroom. Viva la Best Buy and LG...

    I believe LG makes great products anyway, and this TV is no exception. The picture is excellent and the operation is very easy. I also purchased the sound bar to enhance the TV viewing experience. The Geek Squad duo installed and programmed both products in my living room in under 15 minutes.

    Was looking at a 50" at a competitor for $350 but they had run out, so I checked Best Buy online. Only 1 inch smaller, and under $300 ??SOLD!! 3 HDMI inputs & a USB input too. Really easy setup. Great picture, great service and excellent price - what more can you ask for? Liked the LG so much I went back & bought a 32" for the bedroom - also a great deal!

    This is a great tv for the price. It's a perfect size for a medium size room. Speakers aren't great but you cannot expect much from such a slim profile. It has only 2 HDMI inputs, something to keep in mind. Wish I had known before I made the purchase.

    We've had this TV for over a month now and it's great. Quality is awesome, well-lit, and the sound is surprisingly good for right-out-of-the-box. Light and thin, very low-profile. I highly suggest buying this TV and pairing it with a Roku rather than buying the identical Smart TV model. The Roku is a wider, easier platform to use with a better interface and it will save you a couple hundred bucks too!

    Bought the tv during the pre Black Friday event and I bought based on looks and price during sale. My family has owned 4 LG tv over the years and they have had great luck. So gave it a shot when I needed a new one and the picture is great looks of the tv are very modern and the slim boarder around the tv makes it feel like a bigger tv. I would definitely buy another LG very pleased overall

    I bought the TV to replace an older unit. I use the unit for general purpose viewing and do not require a lot of bells and or whistles. This unit fits my needs well. It was easy to set up, has good quality picture and adequate sound for general purpose viewing . I am happy with the unit and felt it was good unit for the money.

    It's a perfect fit for my TV stand. The picture quality is very good. It has good sound quality without a sound system. Perfect size; a good fit for the living room area of an apartment. Nice slim model with all hook up slots. Great price for good quality.

    I did my research before buying this unit as I learned make sure it can do what you want before you buy. I don't need the smart tv options since every piece of equipment I have does the same thing. The price was great especially on sale during Black Friday. The unit is thin and light and works great.

    I got this TV on a "deal of the day" sale and for the price it cannot be touched by any other TV in its price class! If you don't need 120hz and you are OK with 1080p than just grab this when its on sale and you can't go wrong. I just needed a 2nd TV for a spare room and it perfectly fit the bill!
