HD TV Reviews (32" and Above)

This model is the 50'' version of the 42'' LG 42PA4500 TV that we tested in our labs. For more information about the PA4500, please therefore go to our review of the LG 42PA4500. Everything we said in the LG 42PA4500 review holds true for this model—the only thing that's different is the screen size! Sometimes manufacturers fit the different sized models of a given television with panels from different sources. In such cases, our comments are only valid for a specific size of a given TV, fitted with the panel that we originally tested. Contrast, black levels, colour fidelity and ghosting are all subject to change from one panel to another. When different panels are used, we'll be sure to let you know about it! Manufacturers who do use the same panel in all the various sized TVs sold under a given model number can expect the same results across the whole range. The only factor that could be prone to slight variation is the brightness, producing a slightly different contrast. However, according to our own tests, and assurances from manufacturers, the results of one TV can accurately be applied to other sized models in the series when the same panel is used.
