Nothing so far
Review:
Having owned one of these for a few days now I have to say that this is a fantastic TV for the money. The TV looks fantastic with its glossy black finish and looks much more expensive, friends are amazed when they find out how much it actually cost. The picture I have found excellent, I have a Samsung 32-inch LCD and the picture on this seems much better. I have also found none of the remote control delay problems mentioned in the CNET review, which suprised me seeing as my LCD suffers from this. So far so good!

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
