Photos: LG 32LG6000 Scarlet, the TV with a hole

LG's 'Scarlet' range of televisions are causing quite a buzz. Is it the massive marketing campaign? Is it the intrusive red colour that the back of the TV is finished in? Could it in fact be the glowing red/white hole on the front of the TV? Whatever it is, people want to know about this TV, so we got LG to send us one, and we've only gone and taken some photos of it.

We're looking at the 32-inch model, the 32LG6000, so it's only a 720p TV, which is fine for most uses, and we suspect that people who buy this sort of TV aren't going to be specification hounds anyway. That said, it does have four HDMI sockets, which is exceptionally generous. You'll also find two Scarts, component in and VGA in for PCs.

It goes without saying that the speakers are invisible, but what do we make of the case generally? It's an odd one -- the style is certainly unique, but the bezel is rather thick, which is clearly a deliberate design decision, not one led by cost or technical necessity. We're sure it won't appeal to everyone, but those who like it will probably really like it, which could be worrying, given that hole in the front.
