| The Bottom Line | Although its black levels aren't the deepest, accurate color and a red frame still distinguish the Samsung PN50A650 from the pack. | Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative. | 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. | CNET did not review the Samsung PN58A650, but we did review a smaller model in the 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. |
