| Bottom line | The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever. | For people craving a colossal flat-screen TV who don't want a plasma or a
projector, the 70-inch Sharp LC-70LE73U series LED-based LCD offers very good picture quality, especially in bright rooms. | The Sony EX523 series produces a solid though workmanlike picture at a price that competes well against similarly featured
LED TVs. |
