JVC JLC37BC3000 Review

37" Black Crystal LED TV

BlackCrystal is the name JVC is using for their flagship line of LED back lit LCD televisions. With "CrystalMotion" 120Hz processing and many of the features the JLC37BC3000 has lots of bells and whistles yet still comes in at a value price.

Picture and Viewing Features

The BlackCrystal series televisions have LED back lighting and 120Hz processing that JVC is calling CrystalMotion. It also features a color boosting technology named CrystalColor that will probably appeal to viewer who like a more saturated look. It has an auto diming mode for energy savings and a game mode that bypasses the picture processing to virtually eliminate input lag when playing games.

Appearance

The JLC37BC3000 has a glossy black bezel surrounding the screen and a lighter colored strip along the bottom, it is just over 3 inchs deep. That's a little deeper than we are used to seeing on LED back lit televisions these days but the BlackCrystal LED is not an unattractive television.

The JLC37BC3000 does not feature internet connectivity.
