The Bottom Line CNET has not reviewed the Sharp LC-42D64U, but we have reviewed the nearly identical LC-52D64U. We loved the Sharp LC-52D64U's slim style and solid black-level performance, but we didn't like its less-than-uniform screen. The midlevel Samsung LN46A550 LCD HDTV strikes an excellent balance between price and performance. Panasonic's TH-42PX80U 42-inch plasma sets the picture quality-to-value standard for entry-level flat-panel HDTVs. Despite inaccurate color, the Toshiba 42RV530U 42-inch LCD represents a solid value given its otherwise commendable picture quality.
