CNET UK judgement:
This TV is nothing short of stunning. DVD and Blu-ray look amazing, games will blow your mind and even Freeview looks passable, which is no mean feat on a screen this large. We're going to ignore the ludicrous price because if you simply must have the best, then money will be no object
