| Bottom line | The Vizio XVT3SV series' excellent picture quality, thoughtful design, scads of features, and reasonable price combine to make it the best value among high-end LED-based LCD TVs today. | 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. | Very good picture quality and an extremely aggressive price make the Vizio M3D0KD one of the best
LED TV values on the market. | The Sony HX850 is a smart-looking Smart TV with sparkling picture quality, making it a front-runner for plasma-phobic videophiles. |
