| The Bottom Line | CNET did not review the Toshiba 57LX177, but we did review a smaller model in the series. | Albeit expensive, the 52-inch Toshiba 52LX177 LCD HDTV is packed with cutting-edge technology and produces an impressive picture. | It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested. | Albeit slightly less impressive than other LED-based LCDs with local dimming, the Toshiba SV670U also costs less and still gives great blacks. | Deep black levels and accurate color help propel the LED-backlit LG LH90 series into the front row of the LCD picture quality class. |
