Check Out Toshiba’s, Panasonic’s & LG’s Most Current HDTVs

For HDTV fans who recognize that burn-in and product lifespan, two bugaboos that have plagued the national notion of plasma TVs since their launch, are mostly not worth fretting about today, one likely obstacle on the path to plasma remains: power consumption. Plasma has always used significantly more power than LCD. Panasonic aspire to taper that gap with a new plasma display panel it calls, naturally, Neo PDP. The cheaper of the company’s numerous 2009 plasma models to brag about the new panel is the TC-PS1 series.

We found that the S1 series model, which comes in the , 37-inch Panasonic TC-P37S1, 42-inch Panasonic TC-P42S1, 46-inch Panasonic TC-P46S1, 50-inch Panasonic TC-P50S1 and the 65-inch TC-P46S1 does indeed suck less juice than before. Its picture quality is also terrific, starting with deep black levels that almost rival the all-time champ in that department, Pioneer’s Kuro models. Picture quality nitpicks include less-than-accurate color, which thanks to the company’s minimal user-menu controls, cannot be adjusted. Despite these problems we discovered a lot to like about the TC-PS1 series, not the least of which is its appealing price point. Obviously, Panasonic’s range is amount the Top 10 HDTV available in the market. So what more can you ask for? A cheaper HDTV, with comparable top-notch picture quality to one of the best brands in the world like Pioneer Kuro. A range that can suit different types of families with different needs like various room sizes. It is one of the most flexible series in the market. 

The Toshiba 55SV670U is cheaper than almost all LED- based LCDs with local dimming; produces deep black levels; fairly accurate color; considerable picture adjustments; can separate anti- blurring and dejudder functions; plenty of connectivity with four HDMI and one PC input; eye- catching design whereas the Toshiba 55ZV650U pretty cheap for a TV with a 240Hz refresh rate effect; accurate color; can separate antiblurring and dejudder functions; extensive picture settings; solid connectivity with four HDMI and one PC input; eye- catching styling. 

The LG LH85 series, which consists of the 47-inch LG 47LH85 plus the 55- inch LG 55LH85, are designed with this functions. LG promises uncompressed delivery of 1080p content without wires, courtesy of a proprietary 60GHz radio and multielement antenna array.
