We were generally impressed with the performance of the LG LA9700 ultra high-definition (UHD) TVs, but retailing at up to  US$8,033.91 for the 65-inch version, they are still too costly for most consumers. Here is where the latest LA9650 series comes into the picture.

Unlike the LED-backlit LA9700 with a motorized sound bar, LG is keeping production cost low by giving the LA9650 an edgelit panel and regular speakers. Otherwise, the LA9650 has retained all the other key features of its higher-end counterpart. They include:

-In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel with a wide-viewing angle

-Ultraslim TV bezel

-Motion, voice and gesture control

-Screen-mirroring and second screen capabilities.

-NFC, WiDi, Miracast and Mobile High-definition Link (MHL)

Available in both 55- and 65-inch screen sizes, the LG LA9700 is now retailing in Singapore at   US$4,820.02 and US$6,828.70, respectively.
