      This is a great TV! Picture Quality: The LG 55LM8600 TV has great picture quality with vibrant colors and nice black levels (Due to local dimming). The coating on the TV helps with Glare, but I wish LG would have offered the 55LM8600 in a matte finish, to help with glare. The glare will depend on the lighting in the room, and I assure you it is not as bad as other TVs in the market, that are like looking into a mirror. Magic Remote: The point and click technology in the magic remote is simply the best user navigation in the industry. I love it! Only thing I would change is I would love it if there was a full keyboard on one side of the remote, like the LG Google TV (55G2 and 47G2). I'd be more than willing to pay extra for this feature. In the meantime, I plug a keyboard directly into the USB port and it works just fine, but it would be nice to have it all integrated into one "Magic" remote.... see what i did there? 3D: The 3D on this TV is awesome! I love the passive 3D as the glasses are much more comfortable and you never have to worry about the batteries running low, as you do with Active 3D TVs. It's also nice that the TV comes with 6 pairs of glasses so you can have all your friends over to enjoy 3D. My wife and I both wear glasses so in order to avoid having to wear 2 pairs of glasses we purchased the LG Clip-on 3D glasses. If you wear glasses on a regular basis, I highly recommend it. Conclusion: I am very happy with my purchase of this TV and believe it to be above the curve in today's competitive TV market.

      Pros: Good picture quality, stylish look, features matching with competitors. Cons: 1. Audio/Video not in sync except TV tuner and DVD which I do not use much. TV need restart every hour to bring the audio and video in sync. Called up LG, they said they wil investigate and get back.. But no one turned back till now. 2. Browser flash is not upgradable. We beased videos are not maximizable. 3. No dedicate button in remote to change the input option. Everytime need to go through quikc menu which is a major pain.

                                        As far as I can tell the only difference between this model and the LM7600 is this one has a dual core processor and the (beta) voice search. If you use the TV for internet frequently the processor is worth it. If just for tv, the lm7600 gives you the same quality. Myself, I'm glad I upgraded because of the time I spend online. The voice search is mostly ok but can be flaky (see SURI). Great picture and excellent 3D. Passive 3D is less strain on the eyes. Converts 2D to 3D pretty nicely. (Again, may be the dual core processor).Had it since Jan. 2013 and the Super Bowl was outstanding on this box.
