The LG 55LH5750 LED TV offers an average picture quality for movies and TV shows, however sports fans won't be impressed by the average motion performance and bad screen uniformity. The easy to use smart interface is a strength which will appeal to a broad audience.

Our Verdict

0.0
Mixed Usage 

The LG LH5750 would probably be fine for most people that are shopping for a budget TV. It is not ideal for any usage, but instead provides consistent all-round performance which is average or below. Only supporting 2 HDMI ports will be an issue for many people, and the bad uniformity will disappoint sports fans.

Pros
  • Excellent smart platform
  • Provides decent living room performance thanks to the brightness and reflections
Cons
  • Dirty screen effect very visible when watching sports
  • Narrow viewing angle
  • Above average motion blur

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    We tested the 55" (55LH5750), the only size available at the moment. There is also a variant called 55LH575A that we expect to have the same picture quality.

    If someone comes across a different type of panel or if their LG 55LH5750 doesn't correspond to our review, let us know and we will update the review.

    Popular TV Comparisons

    Comparison picture

    Top left: TCL FS3750 (48FS3750). Bottom left: Vizio D Series 1080p 2016 (D50-D1). Middle: LG LH5750 (55LH5750). Top right: Samsung KU6300 (UN55KU6300). Bottom right: TCL US5800 (55US5800).  Unlike our other photographs, this picture wasn't taken under a controlled environment, so do not draw conclusions from it.

    The LH5750 is very cheap for an LG TV, however this shows in the lack of features and average performance. In a market segment dominated by TCL and Vizio, these budget brands provide better performance for the same price as the LH5750.

    How We Test TVs
    How We Test TVs

    We buy and test dozens of TVs yearly, taking an objective, data-driven approach to deliver results you can trust. Our testing process is complex, with hundreds of individual tests that take over a week to complete. Most of our tests use specially designed test patterns that mimic real content, but we also use the same sources you have at home to ensure our results match the real-world experience. We use two main tools for our testing: a Colorimetry Research CR-100 colorimeter and a CR-250 spectroradiometer.
