Typical price: £650
What is it: 42-inch, super-slim TV with 100Hz processing
What we think: As well as being one of the prettiest TVs we've seen, it rewrites the rule book for pricing skinny TVs

We like:
Ground-breaking and gorgeous design; amazingly cheap for what it is; well connected; solid performer
We don't like:
TruMotion processing can cause problems; HD pictures don't look as sharp as desired; slightly disappointing sound
CNET UK judgement:
Having become accustomed to paying a healthy premium for ultra-thin TVs, LG's extremely reasonable 42LG6100 is a pricing revelation. It looks absolutely gorgeous too, and doesn't even perform badly, considering how cheap it is. In other words, we expect it to attract quite a following
