Bottom line
The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever.
The Vizio E2VLE series may appeal to budget shoppers who just want Smart TV, but subpar picture quality hurts its chances against the tough competition.
The Toshiba 40E220U is a value-for-money television offering decent contrast and bright, vivid colors.
