The Bottom Line One of the best overall LCDs we've tested, the Samsung LN-S4096D delivers very good picture quality along with plenty of features and style. The Samsung LNB750 series can't beat the picture quality of the best plasmas and LED-based LCDs, but for a conventional LCD, it's one of the best we've tested. The commendable picture quality of Sony's entry-level 120Hz-equipped LCD makes it a very good value. With a full suite of interactive features as well as solid picture quality, the Sony KDL-W5100 series might be worth the higher price to streaming video fans. Although its picture quality can't quite live up to the high price, the Samsung UNB7000 series is a technological and design tour de force.
