Reviews

  • Toshiba 46XV500A

    The Toshiba 46XV500A 46-inch LCD is the company's best yet, but it's got a lot of competition from TVs with more sophisticated performance and features.

  • LG 50PG79ED

    The LG 50PG79ED offers an excellent picture for the price and adds a useful, though at times idiosyncratic, digital recorder with 160GB of space.

  • Philips 42PFL7403D

    The Philips 42PFL7403D is a solid 1080p television, which shows particular strengths with HD content, but you'll need to tweak it to get the best results.

  • Samsung LA40A550

  • Panasonic Viera TH-50PZ850A

  • Samsung PS42A450P1

    The Samsung PS42A450P1 is a 42-inch plasma which features 100Hz motion compensation and is capable of displaying 3D games and videos.

  • Smart ForTwo coupe (2008)
