The Bottom Line The Samsung LNB750 series can't beat the picture quality of the best plasmas and LED-based LCDs, but for a conventional LCD, it's one of the best we've tested. CNET did not review the Sharp AQUOS LC-52D85U, but we did review a smaller model in the same 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. Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative.
