| The Bottom Line | CNET did not review the LG 26LG30, but we did review a larger model in the series. | LG's 32LG30 doesn't produce the deepest black levels, but its color accuracy after calibration will warm geeky hearts. | While its light shade of black won't win over bargain home theater sticklers, the LG H20 series' features and adjustability stand out among the entry-level crowd. | Although it costs a tad more than bargain-basement models, the Sony KDL-L5000 series makes up for it with above-basement design and picture quality. | Although not as feature-heavy as some models in its class, Samsung's LNB360 series takes the picture quality cake among entry-level LCDs. |
