LG isn’t backing down from all of the other heavyweights and their obsession with active shutter 3D technology.  The electronics giant continues to release passive 3D units that stand up well to the other releases, and the 55-inch Nano Full LED Cinema LW9800 3D HD unit will do plenty to help sway consumers toward the passive take on 3D visuals.  Why do we love this unit so much?  Ah, let us count the ways…

First off, LG has to be thrilled that this is the first passive unit to get THX certified, which means that it passed more than 400 3D visual exams by George Lucas’ entertainment technology conglomerate.  The Nano LED technology really makes the picture pop, so if you’re one of those couch surfers that can’t get enough of incredibly clear TV pictures, then you’ve probably found your dream television.

However, this isn’t what really draws us to the LW9800.  The Smart TV platform that LG is so proud of does everything you could possibly hope for.  You can Skype, utilize online video streaming services, and of course, use all of LG’s fun TV applications.  Passive 3D technology has often been the step-child in the 3D industry, which is why LG couldn’t have timed this any better.  The LW9800 delivers everything you could hope for, but priced at $3,799, it’ll be interesting to see how quickly we see a market-wide adoption.
