LG 55LW5600

The LG 55LW5600 is the 55-inch version of the Editors’ Choice LG 47LW5600 ($1,699.99, 4.5 stars), an LED HDTV with passive 3D and Wi-Fi connectivity through an included USB adapter. It includes both push-button and “Magic Motion” remotes. The latter remote is a motion-based remote control that acts like a Nintendo Wii controller, moving a cursor on the screen with its movements. While we didn’t test the 55LW5600 in the lab, the 47LW5600 was notable for its excellent picture quality and dark black levels, and its very good passive 3D setting, which can use inexpensive filtered 3D glasses.
