CES 2005: The Next Big Thing
LG's 23-inch LCD TV with
built-in DVD player

January 7, 2005; 11:12 a.m.
LG RU-23LG10P 23-inch LCD TV
The product: We liked last year's 23-inch LCD HDTV from LG, and this year, the company is adding a DVI input and an integrated DVD player while lowering the price. LG also makes a 17-inch LCD TV/DVD player combo.
  • 1,366x768 resolution
  • Built-in DVD player
  • 176-degree viewing angle
  • DVI input
The price: LG has yet to announce a release date but says the list price for the RU-23LG10P will be $1,799.

The prospects: With the integrated DVD player, LG is once again appealing to space savers. We prefer something a little larger for the bedroom (26 to 30 inches), but with a street price probably closer to $1,300, this one should hit a sweet spot for many consumers looking for a bedroom or home office set that can double as a computer monitor.
