With Pioneer about to abandon the UK TV scene, the 58-inch, 1080p Viera TX-P58V10 plasma telly has emerged as a hugely worthy heir to the mega-screen throne. Besides tonnes of features and connections, this colossal set offers spectacular pictures ...

Awesome high-definition picture quality ; plenty of connections ; excellent motion processing

Some slight colour-tone issues with standard-definition material ; a few hundred quid off the price would be good

With Pioneer on the verge of disappearing from the UK TV scene, it's a real relief to find a set like the fantastic Panasonic Viera TX-P58V10. It proves that, even after the death of Pioneer tellies, movie buffs will still be able to get their hands ...

The Regza 37XV635DB isn't particularly expensive for a 37-inch, 1080p LCD TV, but it's still got plenty going for it. Its minimalist design is pleasing, its performance with standard-definition material is particularly good, it packs an effective ...

Excellent standard-definition pictures ; solid black levels for the price ; 100Hz system is subtle but effective

Picture isn&apos ; t very bright ; HD material looks slightly soft ; limited viewing angle

The Toshiba Regza 37XV635DB's 100Hz engine definitely helps it improve on the picture quality of the company's cheaper TVs. Its sound is better too, and we love the effect that the Resolution+ processing has on standard-definition material. The TV's ...

The 37-inch, 1080p 37PFL9604H/12 LCD TV more than makes up for its stupid name with its stunning pictures, huge feature set, glamorous design and surprisingly good audio. But it's not one for the technologically faint of heart -- you'll need to spend ...

Attractive and unusual design ; huge array of features ; five HDMI ports ; outstanding picture and sound quality ; full Internet access

Expensive ; more labour-intensive than most TVs

It may be expensive but everything about the Philips 37PFL9604H/12 -- from its metallic bodywork and impressive connectivity to its innumerable features and sublime pictures -- screams quality

We weren't expecting much from the 47-inch, 1080p 47LH3000 LCD TV, since it bears a startlingly low price tag. But it confounded our expectations at every turn, offering striking pictures, excellent menus and an attractive design. This set is a real ...

Huge but attractive ; great value for money ; picture quality is far better than you&apos ; d expect, given the price

Black levels aren&apos ; t the deepest we&apos ; ve seen ; standard-definition pictures are sometimes slightly noisy

While LG is doing good work with its mid-range and top-end TVs, we really didn't expect much from the almost entry-level 47LH3000. But it confounded our expectations at nearly every turn, stubbornly refusing to be humbled by any of our tests. It ...

The 1080p, 40-inch Aquos LC40LE600E is remarkably affordable for an LED-backlit LCD TV. While Sharp's cut a few corners to keep the price down, the set looks great and its pictures are often blisteringly intense, without any of LED backlighting's ...

Pretty design ; LED-backlighting system produces stunning colours and black levels ; automatic HDMI labelling ; relatively affordable

Build quality is rather flimsy ; only three HDMI sockets ; occasional motion blur ; average audio

Sharp's attempt to make LED-backlit LCD TVs mainstream has paid off handsomely in the Aquos LC40LE600E. Despite feeling slightly under-specified in some areas, this surprisingly inexpensive TV really does deliver all the picture benefits of direct LED ...

You'll need to lay down a sizeable wad of cash to buy the 42-inch, 1080p Viera TX-P42G15 plasma TV, but it's worth it. This set boasts exceptional picture quality and is jam-packed with features, including an on-board freesat HD tuner and Web ...

Great picture quality ; on-board freesat HD tuner ; excellent range of features

Picture presets need tweaking ; design may be too understated for some

With exceptional picture quality and a stunning feature set, the Panasonic Viera TX-P42G15 really is a top-notch plasma TV. It might be pricy but we think it's worth every penny

Despite a rather dour exterior, the 1080p, 46-inch Bravia KDL-46W5500 is a fantastic LCD TV. Its images are nothing short of sensational, it offers good connectivity and multimedia functionality, and, compared to other Bravia sets, it's surprisingly ...

Excellent picture quality ; good connectivity and multimedia functionality ; decent audio ; good value

Online features are flimsy ; not particularly pretty

For those who can't afford one of Sony's exceptional X4500 LED-backlit TVs, the fantastic functionality and performance of the surprisingly affordable Bravia KDL-46W5500 should do the trick. It's just a shame that Sony's online system isn't as good as ...

Bargain hunters may well wet their pants at the prospect of the 1080p, 32-inch 32LH5000 LCD TV, and with good cause. Its average black-level response prevents it from being an absolute classic, but it sports spectacular specs for its price and boasts ...

Great price for its specification ; loads of features and connections ; good control of motion blur ; very bright for a 32-inch screen

Black levels need work ; high-definition images could be sharper ; limited viewing angle ; occasionally muted colours during dark scenes

LG has worked its usual magic with the 32LH5000, in that it delivers a fearsome on-paper specification for a relatively inexpensive price. But, while the set sports useful features galore, a couple of key failings stop it from hitting the performance ...

The 1080p, 37-inch Bravia KDL-37S5500 LCD TV is remarkably affordable for a Sony set. While it can't match the performance of the company's higher-end TVs, it nevertheless offers crisp high-definition pictures, richly saturated colours and robust ...

Exceptionally affordable for a Sony Bravia TV ; reasonably well built ; bright and colourful pictures

Black levels aren&apos ; t great ; some motion blur at times ; pretty feeble audio

Many people will probably be overjoyed at the prospect of being able to get a decent-sized Sony Bravia TV for £600. Before you get too excited, though, you should know that the KDL-37S5500 comes with some pretty major performance strings attached
