What is it: 42-inch plasma TV with 1080p resolution
What we think: While there's no doubting the 42PZ800's performance credentials, we can't quite convince ourselves it's fully worth the money

"Pricey but worth every penny"
What I like:
fast response time, sound, stunning HD picture quality
What I don't like:
lack of ethernet port and inability to play non AVCHD movies from SD card
Review:
I agree with the review. the best 42 inch TV in the market. Purchased my set last year and not surprised that prices have not fallen from where they were six months back. The US version of this set is also rated as the best 42 inch set

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
