LG's New 84-Inch 4K 3D TV: Eyegasm


It looks good to the point of being eerie. Footage was incredibly sharp, and colors were lush and beautiful. It's so big and clean that it almost looks 3D even when it's showing 2D footage—like looking in a window to another world. It was plenty bright for the convention floor without being blown out, but we haven't had a chance to peep it in a dimly lit room, so we can't comment on how the blacks look.

As far as 3D goes, it was excellent. It uses passive 3D glasses, like the light ones you get in movie theaters. This makes a world of difference. Active-shutter technology is terrible. Really, it's the worst. The glasses are expensive, it makes everything too dim, and it gives a lot of people headaches. I could have watched 3D on this thing all day. It was sharp and I didn't notice any ghosting or weird strobing.
