| The Bottom Line | While not up to the picture quality of Samsung's topflight models, the feature-rich, uniquely styled LNB650 series still outperforms most LCDs on the market. | The commendable picture quality of Sony's entry-level 120Hz-equipped LCD makes it a very good value. | It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested. | |
