Best bang for the buck
By Keyser Soze
I have never written a review for anything, but a review for this TV is a must. It's picture quality is amazing from cable to BluRay to DVD. It has brought my old DD's to life with the motionflow 240hz technology. If you know anything about this, it looks as if you are on the set when they are filming and gives a depth to each scene. Just watched the Se7en on it (non-Blu-Ray) and caught things I missed on the set due to this TV's clarity and depth. I thought it would only bring my Blu-Ray's to life, but even movies like The Natural plain DVD were killer and made Robert Redford seem timeless like it was recently shot even though the movie was shot nearly 30 years ago.I purchased this set from a local Fry's for 999.00 and based on thorough research and comparisons, it was a steal. Even watching the high end Sony's etc, they were giving the same picture quality at almost twice the price.I can't speak for the lip sync issues, as I have it running to an old surround sound system and not showing any problems.Bottom line, LG is making a rival 240hz slick design flat panel that exceeds other high end brands at a fraction of the cost.

Great TV but...
By rivered
The external appearance of the 47SL80 is simple yet very nice to look at, the base and swizel is very solid and heavy, not cheap and plastic like most tvs, and the picture is beautiful. I use an external sound system so I can't comment on the sound. I didn't like the Trumotion but from all the TVs I've seen with 120hz and 240hz, they all seem to make the picture look unnatural to me. The big thing I disliked about this TV and the reason I'm returning it is the screen is too reflective, it's like a black mirror. If the screen is black I can actually see my lazy self on the screen, something which is probably good for me because it might get me in the gym but something I definitely don't like to look at. So my advice is if you're in shape and nice to look at get this TV otherwise look for a matte type screen. And if you're use to reflective screens like the ones on the plasmas this probably isn't more reflective then those, just something I'm not use to and don't like.

LG 47SL80 LCD HDTV
By Dave
Great TV for the price. Only problems I have encountered are that glare is an issue because of the glass front instead of the matte finish on most LCDs. Also, the TrueMotion 240Hz feature makes most shows look like soap operas. It looks great for sports and can be turned off easily for non-sports. I bought this TV to replace another LCD that had the screen broken my a mystery impact (nobody knows anything about it). I don't know if the glass front makes it any more or less durable, but I've had it for 3 weeks now with no cracks yet.
