"Backlight problems"
What I like:
Ambilight
What I don't like:
Picture flaws
Review:
After 8 weeks this TV developed dark horizontal bands and a dark area in the middle of the screen - it has been away to repair but this did not fix the problem - it is back with the repairers but I don't expect success - best to stay away from this TV until these problems are fixed.

On 2 December, Freeview HD launched, at least technically. Sadly, there's no equipment that can receive the broadcasts at the moment, but the channels are certainly up and running

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
