The LG 42SL90 42 LED TV is LG’S edge-lit LED TV. Using edge-lighting, as opposed to the 42lH90’s local-dimming array, allows the set to be made very thin – only 1.2 inches. It also has a seamless front edge to edge front panel with no frame around it for a sleek elegant ‘edgeless’ design appearance.

The 42SL90 comes with the Intelligent Sensor, which automatically optimizes the image for the ambient light conditions in the room, and LED Mega Contrast 3,000,000-1, which works with the edge-lit LEDs to provide a wider color gamut and superior image quality with deeper blacks.

The TruMotion 120Hz refresh rate responds quickly to color changes, thereby virtually eleminating motion blur and allowing for improved viewing at different angles. Of course the 42SL90 has full HD 1080p resolution.

There’s also an invisible speaker system that was tuned by renowned audio expert Mark Levinson to put out a wider sound field while offering a clean polished look. It includes Clear Voice II, which enhances the human voice frequency range so dialogue is still audible during scenes with excessive background noise.

LG’s Picture Wizard, featured on the 42SL90 42 LED TV, allows for simple self-calibration by providing on-screen reference points for important elements such as sharpness, black levels, tint, colorand  backlight level, allowing you to take the guesswork out of picture adjustments without purchasing additional calibration tools.

And as with almost all LED LCD TVs, the LG 42SL90 is very energy efficient, and is Energy Star 3.0 compliant.
