Sharp LC42D77X

Sharp LC42D77X

By Ty Pendlebury

Sharp LC42D77X review: The Sharp LC42D77X is a great TV let down by poor sound. But if you have a sound system already then the set's belting image quality makes it worth considering.

Excellent pictures • Even better than last year's model • Three HDMI ports

Horrible sound • 100Hz mode is pretty bad

LG 50PS70FD

LG 50PS70FD

By Ty Pendlebury

lg 50ps70fd review: The LG 50PS70FD with "Time Machine Link" is an even better deal than its more expensive sibling, and is just as capable as a television.

Excellent image processing • Able to choose your own hard drive to add PVR functionality • Ability to add extra storage if needed • USB playback support is unsurpassed ;

Blacks can tend towards brown in lit rooms • Colour gradations could be better handled • Only one USB, so it's record or playback and not both ;

Panasonic Viera TH-P46G10A

By Ty Pendlebury

panasonic viera th-p46g10a review: The Panasonic Viera TH-P46G10A is the best plasma we've seen in the past 12 months, and is perhaps the best TV on the market.

Excellent blacks and shadow detail • Smooth colour response • Excellent picture processing • Three HDMI ports • Decent price ;

Design is a little "fuddy-duddy

Sony Bravia KDL40ZX1

By Ty Pendlebury

sony bravia kdl40zx1 review: The Sony Bravia KDL40ZX1 is a beautiful looking television, and while picture quality is generally good it's restrained by a first-gen wireless technology.

Beautiful design • Slim • Decent black levels • Detailed pictures ;

Smearing when using wireless • Expensive • Off-axis and backlight clouding issues ;

Bezel rattles with strong bass • Tight port placement incompatible with thick cables • Stain magnet and scratch-prone • Mismatched metal stand • Slight buzzing noise ;
