What reviewers say

HDTVTest and AVForums praise deep blacks, convincing colours, strong video processing and bright passive 3D. Both find motion less clear without interpolation. AVForums likes the webOS interface and built-in sound; HDTVTest identifies tinting, dark-edge shading and forced noise reduction that AVForums does not observe. Calibration controls attract criticism.

Speaker detail
40 W output. LG Czech specifies no subwoofer, while AVForums describes a 2.1-channel system; channel count is omitted because the sources conflict.
Audio features
Dolby Digital and DTS decoding; LG wireless sound synchronisation
Casting
DLNA, MHL and LG Cloud; Miracast and WiDi reported by AVForums
Software updates
Launched with the original webOS Smart+ interface; the retained LG Czech page now says webOS 2.0. LG's syndicated August 27 2014 release states the US EC9300 was on sale that month, supporting August first-sale precision without treating the earlier promised August 24 day as independently confirmed delivery.
TV tuners
DVB-T2, DVB-C and DVB-S2, with CI slot; UK Freeview HD and satellite reception confirmed by AVForums. Analogue composite, component and SCART inputs are specified by LG.
USB
Three side USB 2.0 inputs with hub support; no USB 3.0

Design and power

Size
Without stand (W × H × D): 1225 × 715 × 80 mm, from LG's exact EC930V Dutch specification
Stand
With stand (W × H × D): 1225 × 753 × 204 mm; 16.4 kg. The stand is detachable and does not swivel; wall mounting is supported, per AVForums.
Power use
106 W on-mode in the maker energy table; 0.3 W standby; Dutch maker supply 220–240 V, 50/60Hz
In the box
Magic Remote and conventional remote; UK reviews identify two pairs of passive 3D glasses plus two clip-ons. LG's Dutch accessory table instead lists three pairs plus one clip-on, a regional package difference.
