LG Infinia LE9500
LG's new flagship is named Infinia LE9500. The new LE9500 will be launched in two sizes. A 55-inch model and smaller 47-inch model called 55LE9500 and 47LE9500.

The Infinia Tvs does feature promising specs but also brags with a new Live Borderless design that almost eliminates the frame around the LCD panel. The frame is just 8.5 mm wide.
The Infinia models are the new high-end Tv series from LG and are packed with functionality and technology. LG mentions a Full LED panel with local dimming (in 240 zones on the 55-inch model) but this doesn’t mean that the LE9500 is not slim.

LE9500 also incorporates a newly developed 480/400 Hz system, making movement even more smooth. It also supports 3D.
The new Infinia models also eliminates cables, using a new Wireless AV link that can receive HD signales from other wireless devices.

LE9500 will include a THX-profile, which ensures that picture quality on LE9500 meets the stringent requirements of THX.
LG has also updated the NetCast system, known from the LG Blu-Ray players. NetCast lets users access the Internet to enjoy the new Skype-function, Google Picasa, YouTube, Netflix, and more. NetCast also supports DLNA.

LE7500 is the step down from the LE8500. Instead of an LED backlight with local dimming, LE7500 utilizes a Edge LED backlight and 100 Hz instead of 200 Hz. This also means that 3D is not supported on LE7500.

LG Infinifa LE7500 has a different design, although it is still based on LG's Borderless philosophy, but with wider frame around the LCD panel.
