| Review summary | If you want a stylish, large flat screen then this Panasonic embodies these traits perfectly. We should also emphasise just how good the picture quality is with both standard- and high-definition sources, and the selection of inputs caters for all needs. It may well be expensive, especially with the glass cabinet stand, but it's been crafted with loving attention Read full review |
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 Read full review |
This is the ultimate TV for home-cinema buffs. With its separate media receiver, this screen is perfect for wall-mounting or professional installs. The flexibility offered by the numerous inputs and DVB-T, DVB-S2 and DLNA mean it's got more functionality than its Kuro siblings too. It won't appeal to everyone, but it's one hell of a TV all the same Read full review |
If you've got the money, don't think twice -- this TV is as good as it gets and you won't regret buying one for even a second. The only problem is that it'll cost you another fortune in Blu-ray discs and HD TV subscriptions Read full review |

Sony Bravia EX1 (KDL-52EX1)
An always good and occasionally outstanding performer, but it's far too expensive
Philips Cinema 21:9 (56PFL9954H/12)
Great piece of kit, but its price tag will make it unobtainable for most
JVC Xiview LT-42WX70
Interesting attempt at creating an innovative TV, but some of its promised functionality is yet to be realised
