| Review summary | The Samsung LE46F86 is an excellent television with everything you could possibly need, including 1080p, Motion Plus to make films look smoother and a great selection of inputs. Be prepared to spend a bit of time setting the TV up when you get it out of the box 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 |

LG SL9000 (42SL9000)
Good but not great. It's not quite up there with the best of the LED-edge-lit competition
Philips 9000 (47PFL9664H/12)
Beautiful styling, superlative performance and an endless feature set make for a truly premium experience
Sony Bravia Z5800 (KDL-40Z5800)
Sony's first freesat set is one of the best-performing TVs we've seen from the company so far
Toshiba Regza SV (46SV685DB)
It's a very good TV indeed, but we're not convinced the price is justified
