| The Bottom Line | An awesome design and a full-fledged feature package make this higher-resolution plasma almost worth its high price. | Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative. | With excellent picture quality marred by only a couple of flaws, the Panasonic TC-PG10 series sits near the head of the class of 2009. | ||
