The Bottom Line While its picture quality has a hard time keeping up with the pack, the 1080p LG 47LB5D does deliver good looks and plenty of features. CNET has not reviewed the LG 42LB5D, but we have reviewed the nearly identical 47LB5D. CNET has not reviewed the LG 52LB5D, but we have reviewed the nearly identical 47LB5D. Deep black levels and accurate color help propel the LED-backlit LG LH90 series into the front row of the LCD picture quality class. It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested.
