Small Wonder runs on XD engine and 100Hz True Motion technology which makes it very suitable for watching movies from high-quality sources such as DVDs without eye fatigue. With a 0.001 ms response time, it can keep pace with the fastest moving action movies and sporting events.

Though this TV weights 15.8kg without the stand, it can still be hung on the wall like a picture frame (you have to buy the wall mount separately). With a wide display screen (aspect ratio of 16:9) it’s ideal for watching digital movies full frame without cropping. The little wonder also boasts of a variety of other viewing aspect ratios options such as Spectacle, Original, 4:3, 14:9, 16:9, Zoom-1 and Zoom-2.

All the interface sockets including an assortment of digital audio and video in/out, 2 HDMI sockets, 1 VGA socket (to connect it to your PC) 2 DVD-in and off course RF antenna-in, are placed in an indented slot on the back of the TV. Here the designers at the LG goofed up. If the TV is mounted on a wall it will not only be impossible but too dangerous to connect or disconnect the output devices like DVD player, PC etc. Another goof-up in design are the missing lifting handles or the holding grips. The full-function remote again has been ignored by the LG design team, it’s rather bland and resembles a foot scrub with dots of different shapes and sizes to apply accupressure on the sole of the feet.The charcoal black remote has 49 keys in all and most of them are black in colour except six.
