The Bottom Line Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative. 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. The high-end Panasonic TC-PV10 series of plasmas delivers the overall best picture quality of any flat-panel HDTV we've tested so far this year. Excellent picture quality for the money makes the Panasonic TC-PS1 plasma the best value among large-screen flat panels.
