The LG 52LG50 makes TV viewing a true cinematic experience with its unique intelligent sensor technology that automatically adjusts color and brightness in varying light conditions with its 4,096 sensing steps and a host of image enhancement options. Its 2-way 20W speaker system with SRS TruSurround XT has sufficient sound quality but an external surround sound is almost always recommended. The clear voice technology ensures you get the crisp and clear voice without any noise distraction.

One great feature of the LG 52LG50 is its easy adaptability with external devices, thanks to its HDMI and USB jacks. Three HDMI jacks connect satellite, cable, HDTV, DVD, mp3 player, and even Blu-ray player. The PC input can be used to turn the LCD TV into a very large computer screen. What’s more, you can change to game, movie and sport mode through the AV mode option; the video and audio content will be adjusted automatically.
