| Bottom line | The Sony HX850 is a smart-looking Smart TV with sparkling picture quality, making it a front-runner for plasma-phobic videophiles. | The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever. | For those who can afford it, the Panasonic TC-PZT60 comes closer than any TV yet to picture-quality perfection. | The overpriced Sharp Elite LED-based LCD produces the second-best overall picture quality of any TV we've reviewed since 2008. |
