The LG is $16,999, twice as fast, and has passive 3D, but this TV is one inch bigger. Is that one inch worth the extra $23,000?

Hmmm, i don't really know... But my wife just said she pay $46,000 for an extra inch... Man, I didn't know she loved TV that much. I learn something new everyday.

Oh my gosh -- bigger is always better! Didn't you know that? I mean let's look at Porn -- bigger is always better. The federal deficit! Spend! Spend! Spend! How about McDonalds -- SUPERSIZE!!! And gosh since we are talking about a few thousand dollars -- I'd get BOTH. Put one in the family room -- and one in the bathroom! Then you can poo and watch at the same time. I hear the Kardashians all have one of their very own for almost every room in the house -- Now if they have one we must have one-- I mean gosh they are a household name!

Just remember that size does matter... so much so that some are willing to pay in order to compensate

You bet your sweet hass it is! If it wasn't worth the extra 23,000, they would have made it an 84 inch.

YES it does like Obama said "Yes we can" and everyone believed him and voted for the sod.

Certainly! We suggest you buy both TVs, place them next to each other and you will definitely notice the difference.

From what I have read the 65 is a better T.V. but is a couple hundred dollars more. I own the 65 and so far I am very impressed and would pay the extra money for the 65. Then again, I haven't seen the 61 but based on reviews that is what I would conclude. By the way, the price on the 65 fluctuates A LOT... I just bought it for 2164.99 August 5th. Two days later it was 2144.99 and a couple after that it was 2999.99 so I would be patient and wait until a good price comes around.

I bought the tv for that price. I got it for $1631 on July 30th, I don't know how much that helps you. I checked the next day and the price had raised to above 1700 so I assume I got very lucky.

I purchased a 60 inch LG plasma tv to replace a 55 inch Samsung which failed after two years of fine service. My LG is slightly better than the Samsung and neither LG nor Samsung had the screen door effect. Based on my buying experience LG is my preference.

If you Google this question, the key answer that tends to come up is that it is not HDMI 2.0 compatible out of the box but will be in Sep 2014 when LG creates a separate hardware add-on. I've read that this could be anywhere from $100-$400 extra. Can from LG anyone confirm this?

If I was you, I would purchase a Netcast Blu-Ray player and a 3D TV. I see LG have both with competitive price.

The tv comes w/ 4 LG passive 3-D glasses. Any additional 3-D glasses have to be passive. Brand is unimportant...Amazon does offer a wide selection

I first got the A3 108i model, which I liked very much, outputting to my (only) 1080i LG 37" TV. Recently, I got an open-box A35 from BB for $75! It looks actually quite a bit better, on the same TV! Here is my review of the LG TV (8000:1 contrast ratio, 5 ms speed, and XD picture enhancement). Even my SD Dish Satellite looks pretty darn good! You can follow that to my A3 review ($50-99 at places such as Newegg.com)--also up-converts, but not quite as well as the A35. http://www99.epinions.com/content_408499097220

I currently have the A3 for my 40" 1080i Samsung LCD. I also picked up a new A35 from Best Buy for $150. Now I have a back up/player, If I decide to upgrade to a 1080p TV. Go online to bestbuy.com, see if the stores in your area have any available. If they do, then run! At this price they're going very fast.Remember the five free movie rebate is still going, you have until 2/28.

Thanks. But still 800$ difference. I'm still wondering anything more... NX810 has blu-ray 3d bundle, but i don't need it just the TV? Is it for those bundle?

Guys, the glasses and TV's may be cheaper, but passive 3DTV's are at 540 resolution in 3D, compared to 1080 that active TV's offer. This is a huge difference that I was able to confirm myself by trying both at a Best Buy store. Remember that before making a decision.

yes, don't bother buying this or ANY other Ultra 4K HDTV. It's all marketing hype, PERIOD. Unless you plan on purchasing at 100+ inch set, or plan on sitting 3 feet or closer to the set OR play extreme consoling gamers, you will NOT be able to discern the difference between ANy 4K or the current garden variety of 1080P sets, PERIOD. Of course, if you like to spend your extra money for the latest and greatest gadgetry, by all means get it, but you didn't learn the TRUTH from me here. Also, there is very little in the way of 4K content, either in gaming or network produced TV shows or movies. Better to hold off until the truly next generation OLED sets makes their way and when 4K content and prices are more mainstream and cheaper. This is still YEARS away though. GOOD LUCK regardless.

I enjoy the 3D very much at a distance of 2 meters or greater. If you sit too close to the LG you will see some slight doubling of the images, and text (such as subtitles) will have more jagged edges.

Well that actually was one of two of the deciding factors in why I bought this tv as opposed to the Panasonic I was looking at. ONE because this TV came down to $999 for like 2 days and I jumped on it, and TWO because this comes with 4 sets of 3D glasses. Panasonic comes with ZERO and they cost like $70 a pop. The only accessory i purchased for this TV was a Logitech keyboard that also has a built in track-pad so i can do it all with one accessory. It is a tad laggy but not too too bad. Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 with Built-In Multi-Touch Touchpad, Black So check that out. Hope this helps. Take care! Let me know if you need anything else.

I don't have that model no. I have a 47LV5500 which I've had for several years and am completely satisfied. I'd suggest going to the LG site or read the description and the comparison section at the lower part of the Amazon page for the LG tv you are asking about. They compare all models and I made my decision for the LV5500 because of the higher contrast and refresh rate. one tv might have a contrast of 400,00 while a model for $100 more is rated at 4,000,000. that's picture quality and I'm satisfied with the LV5500.

3D ready is older technology, and it means that there's a plug in the back for 3D devices. New 3D TVs are going to be about $3,000-4,000 when they hit the market later this year so that's why I'm going with this older tech. There are some great articles online if you google "3D Ready" but from what I've seen, the TVs minimum refresh rate will be 120hz (twice as fast as we can see) and it will sync up with 3D glasses that alternate at the same frequency so each eye sees a different image. There's other information about a checkerboard pattern where every other pixel is displayed and it cuts down on the resolution. I'm still new at this so I'm still waiting for my TV to come in before I figure this out. As far as I know, even though 3D ready TVs were before the industry standard, they will still be supported by blu-ray and Sony. I asked Sony, but they haven't gotten back to me yet. update: There is one thing that I forgot. Because of the way 3D technology works, screen size is the biggest factor in depth. The bigger your 3D TV is, the better the effect will be.

No, I own this TV and it's not 3D. I personally love this TV and 3D was more of a gimmick to me, so I decided to get this anyway. I got this TV on Amazon.com for $899 and then my credit card company had a price-match deal - reimbursing me if I found it cheaper elsewhere. I found it for sale in a store in Georgia ($699), so I ended up getting $200 back from my credit card company. I know you didn't ask for that last part, but I figured I'd mention it. You cannot get a better TV (with Smart Features) for the money.
