| The Bottom Line | The Pioneer Elite PRO-111FD represents the pinnacle of flat-panel HDTV picture quality. | The high-end Panasonic TC-PV10 series of plasmas delivers the overall best picture quality of any flat-panel HDTV we've tested so far this year. | It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested. | CNET did not review the Pioneer Elite Kuro PRO-151FD, but we did review a smaller model in the same series. | 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. |
