Editorial note

The LG 42PQ2000 television stands out with its Plasma display technology, offering exceptional image quality with vibrant colors and deep blacks, thus creating an immersive viewing experience. With a brightness of 1500 cd/m², it ensures excellent visibility even in bright environments, allowing you to enjoy your favorite content at any time. However, the resolution of 1365 x 768 pixels may seem insufficient for a 42-inch screen, especially when compared to current standards in high definition. Additionally, while Plasma technology provides good image quality, it is less efficient in terms of energy consumption compared to newer technologies like LED or OLED, which could lead to higher electricity costs. Regarding design, the LG 42PQ2000 features a modern and sleek black appearance, harmoniously fitting into various living spaces. However, its weight of 24.8 kg can complicate installation and transport, making handling difficult for a single person. Furthermore, the lack of a DVI port limits compatibility with some modern devices, which could pose connectivity issues. The television is equipped with 3 HDMI ports and other connections, offering some flexibility for connecting various multimedia devices. However, the limited number of AV connections (1) may not be sufficient for users with multiple devices to connect simultaneously, potentially requiring additional adapters or switches. Overall, the LG 42PQ2000 presents significant advantages in terms of image quality and design, but it is important to consider its limitations in resolution and connectivity before making a purchase decision.
