As televisions get larger so do prices and people typically tend to not look at televisions over 50 inches just because the price was too high. What the LG 60PS80 brings to the table is getting a true big screen HDTV at a price which won’t completely offend.
At under $2,000 (Currently $1,999 at Amazon.com) this LG plasma television brings a great picture and large size screen and add a host of other features such as internet connectivity.
Home Theater Mag took a look at the 60PS80 and came to the following conclusion:
The LG’s picture is bright and crystal clear. It’s less bright than most LCDs, but it’s plenty bright for any application outside of a sun porch. (The LG is about 30 percent brighter than the equivalent-sized Pioneer mentioned in this review.) It’s vividly colorful but not in an obviously exaggerated way. And it’s so detailed that you’ll see everything the source has to offer, limited only by your seating distance and visual acuity.
Around here, we tend to love sets that look great and measure beautifully. The LG satisfied only one side of that equation. My wish for a more accurate and stable color gamut and deeper blacks notwithstanding, the LG looks so good on most program material that I can’t come down on it too hard for its few technical short-comings. I enjoyed all the time I spent with it. You might like spending time with it as well.
