Hungry For


I carried a subscription for several years. At the end of last year I decided not to renew. I never got much use from it. Now I'm looking to buy a new television and I wish to know the top recommended in the 52 - 55" size range, but I don't want to buy another subscription. If you are current, please advise.


Answer
The last major test/review of TVs was in the March 2010 issue. Here are the top ratings:

LCD, 52 - 55 inches

1. LG 55LH90 full-matrix LED $2500
2. Sony Bravia KDL-52XBR10 edge-lit LED $4000
3. Toshiba Regza 55ZV650U CCFL LCD $2000
(15 total sets in the list.)

PLAZMA 50-55 inches

1. Samsung PN58B650 $1950
2. Panasonic Viera TC-P54Z1 $4000 (see note)
3. Panasonic Viera TC-P54V10 $2400
(9 sets in the list)

Note: #2 Panasonic plasma has a separate receiver console that connects to the display via a wireless link.

It should be noted that these tests were conducted about 5 - 6 months ago. Prices have probably come down since then and newer models may be out that are superior to one or more of these.

What is the best TV to buy?

Seems like they all are having problems when I read the reviews online. What brand?
I wanted a Samsung!



Answer
Size? Price? LCD or plasma?

If you just want the best TV buy the Pioneer PRO-111FD. It's a 50" plasma that will cost you in excess of $2,500-$3,000, if you can even find one.

If you want the best LCD, go with Samsung's LED-backlit LN46A950. It's only around $2,500.

If you want the best value plasma, look for the 50" Samsung PN50A550. You can find it for under $1,300 if you look online.

If you want the best value LCD, check out the 46" Samsung LN46A650. It's about $1,600.

If you want the best cheap TV, Amazon has the 32" 720p Samsung LN32A450 for $550 right now.
