Bottom line
Very good picture quality and an extremely aggressive price make the Vizio M3D0KD one of the best LED TV values on the market.
The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever.
The Vizio E601i-A3 is the best value yet among big-screen LED TVs.
If you've been holding out for an LED TV with picture quality that mostly lives up to its stunning design and cutting-edge features, the LM7600 series deserves a look.
The Sony HX850 is a smart-looking Smart TV with sparkling picture quality, making it a front-runner for plasma-phobic videophiles.
