Of course, this is history, but in 2010, TV manufacturers decided to master 3D in TVs. In those years, it was a trend; in 2012-2013, about 80% of TVs produced supported 3D. But then it became clear that 3D in a TV was unnecessary, the production of 3D TVs was more expensive than regular TVs, and consumers chose a cheaper TV without 3D. Also, during those years, there was a massive overhaul of display factories, and as a result, as of 2017, 3D technology in TVs was deemed impractical and needed to be supported in LG TVs. But anyone with an older LG TV with 3D support and who likes to watch 3D movies can find a suitable model of 3D glasses to watch their favorite movies.
Which LG TVs support 3D
3D technology has been developed for both plasma and LCD TVs. So you can find plasma TVs with 3D support and LCD TVs from LG. LG also has LED TVs that support 3D.
Compatibility of 3D glasses for LG TVs
Plasma TVs use active 3D technology, so if you are looking for glasses for a plasma TV, you should only look for active 3D glasses. LG’s LCD and LED TVs with 3D support use only passive technology. The first 3D LCD TVs had displays made with previous-generation technology, they had a particular polarizing layer, so they required separate glasses. But as of 2012, LG’s 3D glasses are compatible with later models of TVs.
LG Passive and Active 3D Glasses
Here is a list of LG 3D glasses; I will briefly tell you the difference between the glasses models, as well as a list of compatibility of glasses with LG TV models.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F310: The passive glasses are designed for viewing 3D video on all LG LED TVs from 2012. The most popular and widespread series of glasses.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F200, AG-F215, AG-F260: This was the first series of 3D glasses for LED TVs since 2012. The glasses models differed from each other in design. In 2013, an improved series of 300 series glasses was released. After the release of the new series, the 200 series was discontinued.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F300, AG-F310, AG-F330: The 300 series replaced the 200 series. Improved polarization has eliminated the color fringes around the image details caused by polarization errors. But the principle remains the same: this series of glasses became universal and suitable for all LG LED TVs and other models of TVs with passive technology.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F400, AG-F420: The 2015 TV glasses are the next generation of LG’s TV glasses, passive technology. Similar to the 300 series. The 420 series are Clip-On type glasses; these glasses can be worn over other corrective glasses. These glasses are also suitable for 2013-2014 TVs.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F310DP, AG-F400DP: Dual Play Gaming Glasses these are game glasses, sold in pairs, used for two players. Each player sees their image. Particular games designed for 3D TVs with passive technology are needed. During those years, several 3D-enabled console games were released. They were not widely distributed, but they had their fans.
- Model 3D glasses AG-F220 – This series of glasses is only for the LW6500, LW5700, and LW5600 TVs. These televisions have different 3D displays than other models; they do not have a different polarizing film and require different glasses.
- Model 3D glasses AG-S350, AG-S360: glasses for plasma TV models of 2012, the active technology only works with plasma.
- Model 3D glasses FPG-200N, FPG-200F:These are glasses for the first 3D enabled TVs of the 2009 model year. The difference is that they were designed for TVs with a screen resolution smaller than HD.

If you need 3D glasses, you can search for your model of TV and see which models of 3D glasses are right for you. You can look at their design and choose the right ones.
