is it a 120 or 60 HZ ????? Is this a Dish thing or is the TV really a 60 HZ?

I've read that most boxes / blu players are only capable of transferring data at 60hz, and the 120hz refers to the TV's ability to lace together frames. Therefore, it would be the "automotion" setting that makes it a 120hz frame rate. Not sure if I'm right, but hope this helps.

So its not really 120hz or... what? I just bought the LN40C630, and I notice a lot of juddering still, like its not really working. In the store compared to the other tvs this one looked great during action scenes, but now that i have it in the house, i swear this thing is just as juddery. I messed with the settings for auto-motion and it seems like it may have even gotten worse *confused*....

What the heck I purchased because one of my criteria was that it have a 120Hz. If it is 60 then that is totally false advertisement n I will investigate. I have always had superb experience w amazon so this is a concern.

I called LG's tech support twice and both times they said that this TV IS native 120Hz. The link above to the LG FAQ page is NOT answered by a staff member, instead its from a regular "contributor".

You are very misinformed Watcher. 120hz refers to the panel refresh rate and whether you are watching 30fps video or 24fps movies it still relies on the 120hz refresh rate to display images. As JVAN has shared with us, Plasma TVs don't rely on that technology, it's an LCD thing.

i have contacted amazon and panasonic they both said the refresh rate is 120hz. the 60 hz is the electrical supply it needs to be plugged in to.

"Who Dat" is correct in his statement on 2-23-13 that this is a 120hz with the 240hz clear/full motion plus. We were fooled by the Samsung advertising on the same TV which stated 120hz clear/full motion on the box. It was only 60hz. We don't use the 240hz "plus" function. We don't see the benefit.

Hello, folks? This is an important question!Do you really not agree on the answer? As of 8/2/14, Amazon's ad STILL says this 47LB6300 47" TV by LG Electronics has a native "120hz refresh rate." So what is it, please???

I had tried this TV but the 120hz wasn't fast enough for me. I returned it and purchased the 240hz model 7100. It's more expensive, but the picture looks much better. I'm very happy with it. It will give you the effect you mentioned.

Excellent question! My invoice (purchased late Jan.) also states 120Hz, but I just looked on the back of my set and it clearly indicates 60Hz. Interesting.

It's 240Hz, you can verify this on LG website, http://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-55LA9650-led-tv

The TV does NOT support over 60 Hz! I've tried many methods to get the TV to display more than 60 Hz using my high-end gaming PC, but nothing has worked. I've talked with two Samsung customer support representatives and both have confirmed that this TV only supports up to a 60 Hz refresh rate! I specifically bought this TV for the 120 Hz refresh rate and now, a little more than a year later, I've just discovered that this product title and description are FALSE ADVERTISING.

What you are seeing is 120Hz, but only the actual source Hz (what the TV is receiving) is shown (Usually 60Hz) when you press the info button. The TV itself adds the other 60 frames (or Hz) per second with onboard software to the original 60 that the source sends, giving you 120Hz. Here's a good video description of it from Crutchfield.http://www.crutchfield.com/learn/videos/HDTV/120Hz-240Hz.htmlHave you tried the "Smooth" setting of Automotion? It will give you the cleanest picture, but will look strange to people unaccustomed to 120Hz processing. I use the "Clear" setting, it's a nice blend of the 2 types of interpolation the TV has without as much "soap opera" effect.

I would think that it's 60hz because of the super low response time. Most of your new HDTV's have at least a 120 and in some cases 240hz refresh rate which is what makes their response times anywhere from 10-18 ms. Doesn't seem like a lot until you play on a BENQ which has a 1 ms response time.

This is a native120hz panel that uses "scanning backlight" tech to achieve 240hz.. It doesn't matter what signal you feed it, it will still output a 240hz rendering. The 60hz you see in the top right info bar is simply the frequency/frame rate from your NTSC broadcast from your cable box/DVR or over the air signal. IN England it would say 50hz. All that aside, pay no attention to the top info bar if this has you worried. If you play a Blu Ray, it will say 1080p24 (assuming you have your Blu Ray sending your TV 1080p/24) This is really nothing you need to concern yourself with. The info bar ONLY displays the signal you are feeding the TV and NOT what the TV is putting out. The TV will ALWAYS put out a 1080p signal at either 60hz, 50hz or 24fps depending on your source. The 240hz is the screens REFRESH RATE and has nothing to do with the input or output signal. TO understand this further you can find useful info on both Wikipedia and the AVS forum among other places. Do not worry, this TV IS 240hz (120hz with scanning back light doubling what you see) Cheers! Marty G

It may be listed as 60Hz but I'm quite sure it is 120Hz because it has the sopa opera effect (that only occurs in sets with 120Hz or higher)
