LG 60PM9700 Review
Plasma HDTV 8.5/10 By Steve Holdgren This large plasma TV from LG has great depth and black levels and a new matte screen filter to help reduce glare. The filter traps light in order to accomplish this. This Plasma is active 3D compatible but LG really specializes in passive 3D in all of their LED […]
Panasonic TC-L55DT50 Review
55” Edge Lit LED HDTV 8/10 By Steve Holdgren This second to the top of the line from Panasonic has loads of new features in their largest ever size of LED HDTV technology. We’ve seen this model in action and it shines even though we expected less, since Panasonic is more known for their plasma […]
Sony KDL-46HX750 Review
LED HDTV 7.5/10 By Steve Holdgren This HDTV with LED full array backlighting is the 2nd level TV for Sony for 2012, at least until they announce a new entry in the fall. It is nearly the same in all regards as the HX850 model mentioned in this list, except that it has a HZ […]
Sony KDL-55HX850 Review
LED HDTV 8.5/10 By Steve Holdgren This is actually Sony’s top of the line for early 2012 and will be in production until spring of 2013. It has the somewhat unique fully array local-dimming backlighting which is a good technology in our opinion because it localized the contrast and lighting conditions to provide better color […]
Panasonic TC-P65VT50 Review
Plasma 3D HDTV 9.5/10 By Steve Holdgren This massive plasma is Panasonic’s top of the line for 2012 though they also have some nice large LED-LCD TVs as well.

Plasma 3D HDTV 9/10 By Steve Holdgren This top of the line Plasma TV from Samsung has all their best features for 2012 and early 2013 such as the new black drive filter that really shows some amazingly saturated deep black tones. This helps overall contrast to bring you a more 3-dimensional image, more realism […]
Sharp LC-60LE847U Review
LED HDTV 8/10 By Steve Holdgren In case this huge 60” LED backlit TV is not large enough for you, it also comes in a 70” screen size. It has the unique full array local dimming we are so fond of in these LED backlight TVs. The LED spread across the back of the entire […]
Samsung UN60ES7500 Review
LED-Backlit HDTV 8.5/10 By Steve Holdgren This 60” mammoth HDTV has much the same features as the ES8000 model listed above except that 60” size is unique to the ES7500 line. One other significant difference is that it has a lesser quality setup in the Micro Dimming local dimming area with ‘Plus” rather than “Ultimate”. […]
Samsung UN55ES8000 Review
LED-Backlit HDTV 8.5/10 By Steve Holdgren Samsung’s top of the line model does not leave a lot to be desired, except possibly true full-array local dimming backlighting which technology Samsung still has not adopted. Instead, this flat screen TV is edge lit with LED lighting. It has a local dimming feature through the edge lit […]
