Review summary	There are minor moans here -- the green line at the top of the screen during 1:1 pixel mapping; the half-hearted approach to media streaming; the lack of 1080p support -- but none of these diminish the fact that this TV produces a gorgeous picture -- sharp, detailed, vibrant and largely free from motion artefacts Read full review	If big, beautiful hi-def pictures are what you're after, this 52-incher delivers the goods. Bold but realistic colours, strong black levels and the smoothest motion we've seen on an LCD, married with good connectivity and design, make this one of the finest big screen flat panels around Read full review	Sony's KDL-40W2000 has set a new benchmark for large screen displays. The full 1080p specification is equipped for the future while LCD image quality has never looked this good Read full review	Yes, the Philips 32PFL9632D is one of the pricier 32-inch models around, but if you want your hi-def images to look as clean, clear and crisp as possible then this is currently the best TV in its class. The addition of Ambilight and a wide range of connections are just the icing on the cake Read full review
