| Bottom line | While not quite the best in its class, the Samsung PNE550 plasma still merits a look with its very good picture quality, sophisticated Smart TV platform, and attractive price. | Info unavailable | The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever. | Info unavailable | The Samsung E450 series plasma may not be perfect, but you won't find another TV that performs this well for this low a price. |
