  Hmm, LG 42LB6500 or Sony 60" KDL60W600B? What do you guys reckon?

    There's pretty much no way to answer this question. 18" is a huge size difference, and they're clearly intended for different spaces.

    Lol that's a big difference, would depend on how big your room is but this model craps all over the Sony 600b

    If it's going in a large lounge area then 60" all the way. 42" more suited for a bedroom or office (although still a bit too big for my liking).

    If it's for a lounge, get the 60. No 3d but great TV.

  Thanks, what if I re-word it to which one has a better value? First time buying a TV - I've read on the specs but I'm caught up with deciding which has a better value.

    If you don't 'need' the size of a 60" panel (as you suggested this is the first time buying a TV in recent times) then I'd go with the LG. You can then spend the difference getting the 42" wall mounted (much better use of space) and move up to a bigger TV in a few years.

      Alright, thank you all for the replies! Love it, I'll go with the 42"!

        Great choice! Bigger is not always better and you'll be over the moon with this TV. You can always upgrade in 3-5yrs to a bigger TV.

  If you can fit the 60 inch, then get that. You'll kick yourself getting a 42 inch.

    Agreed there, buy the 60"..lol in several years time get a bigger TV to fit a wall and retire the smaller TV to the bedroom. As to the value equation, they're both excellent buys, coming from my original 42" Panasonic plasma with a separate lg HD box,lol,3.5x more expensive than the Sony,, heh heh

  Bought this for $649 a few months ago with $50 TGG voucher.

  Great TV, won't disappoint. However the OS is a tad laggy at times, which does hinder your ability to actually go into the TV tuner.

  Looks like you could get iView with this as a native app.

  Is the OS really slow - ie annoyingly so?

  I bought this (for more $$$) and unfortunately it does not seem to have mini TV function so I cannot watch TV on my tablet. The LG apps seem a bit dysfunctional but it is a good price.
