 Samsung UN46C6300 46-Inch 120Hz LED HDTV More info in our Samsung LED LCD TV review here. |
Big Screen LCD HDTVs: More affordable than ever...
Up to not long ago, plasma ruled the big-screen TV world. For anything above 40 inches, plasma HDTVs offered superior performance at a cheaper price.
But LCD TV reviews appearing on this site show that things are changing fast. The gap between these display technologies in both price and performance for anything up 46-inch has almost disappeared.
Picture performance of the latest LCD and LED TVs has improved to the point that issues like high refresh rates and contrast levels are no longer a prerogative of plasma TVs.
In addition, while LCD televisions may exhibit some image retention, pixel burn-in is not an issue with LCD TVs. If you want a bright screen for a bright room, LCD is your best bet.
Admittedly, there are areas where LCD TVs are at a disadvantage. Their inherently technical limitation to block all light from the backlight from reaching the surface makes it difficult for LCDs to handle predominantly dark images correctly while preserving the right brightness levels and good shadow detail for the bright parts of the image.
Plasma performance is unsurpassed even though some of the best LED TVs with local dimming can do an incredibly good job here. Even so, screen uniformity and black level intensity with off-axis viewing are still more problematic with LCD TVs and especially with edge-lit LED TVs.
But then LCD TVs and in particular, the latest edge-lit LED LCD TVs are more eco-friendly than plasma TVs, thinner, and equally important for those planning a DIY installation, lighter than a plasma equivalent TV.
Featured LCD TV Reviews for 2010
Samsung new LED HDTVs
|
We have just posted a detailed product evaluation covering the full Samsung LED HDTV line for 2010. Through the new lineup of HDTVs, Samsung is once again confirming itself as the leader in the HDTV market - with almost seventy LCD TV models, half of which use an LED backlight. Screen sizes range from 19" to 65" LED TVs. High-end models sport among the most technologically advanced features - from an ultra slim 0.3" design, to the much-touted 3D and precision dimming. |
 Samsung UN55C8000 55-Inch 3D LED HDTV with precision dimming and 3D support. |
Premium Samsung LED HDTVs such as the 46-inch UN46C8000 and the 55-inch UN55C8000 do not come cheap, but if you are in the market for an inch thin budget-class LED TV, there is a Samsung LED TV for you as well.
The latest Samsung LED TV lineup seems all set to be an even bigger hit. Sets such as the 26-inch UN26C4000 and 55-inch UN55C6300 are already proving to be among the best-selling 2D HDTVs; these HDTVs are also doing well in LCD TV reviews published by customer in online retail stores.
Equally interesting is Samsung Series C8000 - which comes with the new precision dimming LED backlight - apart from 3D and 240Hz refresh rate technology. Precision dimming is not superior to local dimming but represents the best compromise between the added expense of a full-array local dimming LED backlight and improved black level performance.
With such an extensive lineup, the whole issue is: What is on offer with the different series? Are the new Samsung LED TVs capable of improved performance over previous years? Is the premium pack of the very expensive C9000 flagship series a way for Samsung to justify the expensive price?
For answers to these and many other questions you may have on the latest Samsung LED TVs, please refer to our series of detailed 2010 Samsung LED TV reviews and product evaluations appearing on our site.
Sony LED TV Lineup
 The new KDL-NX800 Sony LED TV series with the low-profile table-stand |
For many in the market for an LCD TV, brand choice is often a matter of Samsung versus Sony. It is not that other major brands are not worth considering. But the real BIG names in the LCD TV market are Sony and Samsung. It is thus only natural that inasmuch as we cover Samsung line of HDTVs, we also cover Sony's lineup. For the purpose, we prepared a series of LCD TV review articles covering the full Sony LED TV product line for 2010.
|
Sony's LED TV line is among the most awaited for 2010. During 2009, Sony missed the LED TV game with just one exception that did not leave its mark on the tough LED TV competition. But this year, things are different.
Sony's 2010 LCD TV lineup covers twelve series, seven of which use a LED backlight. Six of these LEDS TV series using edge-lit technology while one uses a full array LED backlight with local dimming - some which for the time being is not on Samsung's books for 2010.
In total, there are 22 different Sony LED TV models ranging in size from small 32-inch LED TVs to massive 60-inch HDTVs. This means that this year, Sony's HDTV lineup comprises more LED LCD TVs than conventional CCFL LCDs; the latter comprises just 14 different models.
The new LED TV lineup comes with quite a few innovative features such as a presence sensor that watches over you to help improve energy efficiency. There are also a few firsts for Sony such as the use of a glossy screen and a swivel table-top stand on some of its HDTVs.
LCD TV reviews appearing on major review sites agree that while picture quality of Sony LED TVs may not be exactly the best picture for demanding home theater enthusiast, they still deliver a great HD experience, with a well put-together feature set at a price that is relatively affordable for an LED TV. And this applies even to mid-range sets such as the 52-inch KDL-52EX700.
For more information on the new Sony LED TVs and how do these perform, please check out our detailed 2010 Sony LED TV product evaluation guide.
LG LED TVs

|
The new LG LED TVs are among the most impressive irrespective of brand. 3D, innovative slim LED backlighting with local dimming, enhanced Internet access, and THX certification are just but a few of the features on offer. It is a line that confirms LG as one of the leaders, one synonymous with extensive features, innovation, and affordability. And one with which LG hopes to gain the biggest market share of the expected 20% increase in global LED TV sales for 2010. |
It is a line that contains over twenty different models that spreads over seven series - from entry-level budget-class HDTVs to LG's premium line of Infinia LED TVs.
Entry-level series LE5300 and LE5400 1080p HDTVs come with 120Hz technology; LE5400 adds NetCast while step-up series LE5500 introduces LG to the new LG LED Plus technology. And the LX6500 series adds 3D support.
It is a case where LG's most affordable HDTVs offer a lot more than you would expect from LED TVs within this price bracket. These LG LED TVs represent an interesting pick especially for the home theater on a budget.
However, not all series perform the same - with some of the less expensive models such as the 47-inch 47LE5400 and the 55-inch 55LE5400 performing better than more expensive equivalents within the LE5500 and LX6500 series. At the same time, despite their overall solid picture and accurate colors, some would tell you that picture performance is not one we have come to expect from the latest LED TVs.
LG's Infinia line of LED TVs combines a more aesthetically pleasing slim single-sheet of glass design with a thin bezel, enhanced connectivity, and enhanced content options. Features however vary according to series; for example, the Infinia LE7300 series gets the Infinia sleek design - but no added conveniences or enhancements - so no picture quality improvement here!
The LE8500 is probably the most talked about premium LG LED TV within the LG Infinia range - with the best selling models being the 55-inch 55LE8500; this is all thanks to its Full LED Slim technology. Equally impressive is LG's flagship series, the LX9500; this adds 3D support. But as expected, these are the most expensive HDTVs within the LG HDTV line for 2010.
As stated, LG LED TVs offers a lot for the price - even with the premium series LED TVs. The issue is: Does LG's affordability compromise picture quality?
For an answer to this and much more, please refer to a detailed LG LED TV review appearing on our site here; it is a four part article that discusses each of the 2010 LG LED TV series in detail - analyzing features and performance.

Samsung vs. Sony - The World's Top LCD TV Makers
Samsung - A World Leader in the LCD HDTV Market
Way back in March 2008, Samsung came with its highly reputable Series 6 LCDs. In their LCD TV review, CNET commented that the A650 Samsung LCD TV is capable of exceptional performance. Samsung Series 6 for 2009, identified by the 'B650' label, follows suite and comes with a few additional enhancements - apart from a larger screen size, that of the 65-inch LN65B650 followed by the more affordable 55-inch LN55B650.
Enhancements found on the B650 lineup include a 100,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio instead of the 50,000:1 found on the A650, and a full suite of interactivity options - including Internet@TV capabilities and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) support to simplify multimedia sharing in the home.
A detailed LCD TV review covering the full 2009 Series 6 Samsung LCD TV line is available on our site here.
Samsung Series 7 - Samsung's best selling 52-inch LCD TV for 2009
Samsung B750 Series 7 LCD TVs represent Samsung high-end CCFL-based LCD TVs for 2009 - with the 52-inch LN52B750 being the best seller. Consumer feedback at amazon shows that customers are extremely satisfied with this 52-inch HDTV - with the only real technical compliant being that sound quality is not so good. Unfortunately, this is typical of most of today's flat panel TVs.
Main enhancement over the B650 is that addition of 240Hz technology on the B750 - apart from a higher contrast rating of 150,000:1 and a faster 2ms response time. The latter is necessary to support 240Hz refresh rate.
When in June 2009, we published our LCD TV review of the Samsung Series 7 LCDs, we predicted that the LN52B750 would become what the LN52A650 has been for 2008 in terms of sales. By end 2009, this had become the best-selling 52-inch LCD TV irrespective of brand.
For a detailed analysis of Samsung Series-7 LCDs appears, please refer to our B750 Samsung LCD TV review article here.
 Samsung UN55B8500 55-inch LED TV with Local dimming |
Samsung LED TVsSamsung is the TV maker that since 2008 has been pushing LED TVs as a mass-market proposition. In 2008, we had the A950 series of LED LCD TVs with its LED lighting using local dimming technology. Samsung's replacement to the A950 is the new UNB8500 series. Like the A950, the new LED TV series comprises of a 46-inch and a 55-inch model. |
In our LCD TV review of the Samsung A950, we stated that these Samsung LED TVs are capable of exceptional black levels. The same holds true for the new B8500 series HDTVs. Rather, as some lucky owners would tell you, B8500 Samsung LED TVs literally disappear in the background when displaying dark content in a completely darkened room. Cnet adds that if you are able to take the best seat for your viewing position, the new Samsung LED TVs are capable of delivering the deepest blacks possible - even deeper than that of the Panasonic V10 series high-end plasma TVs.
OK, LED LCD TVs have got their issues as well which in our opinion would relegate them to the second line with respect to the best plasmas. It is true that sets such as the B8500 Samsung HDTVs and the LG 55LE8500 LED TV are just a hair apart from the top plasmas from Panasonic. But the recent controversy about some of Panasonic plasmas losing their blacks has literally enthroned the Samsung B8500 series as the king of black levels. The only issue in comparison to plasma TVs is the very expensive price tag of these local dimming LED TVs; the 55-inch Samsung UN55B8500 is presently selling online at close to $5,000.
More information on the latest Samsung LED TVs with local dimming is available in our B8500 Samsung LED LCD TV review article.
Apart from the B8500 series, Samsung LED TV lineup for 2009 comprises an additional eleven models, starting with entry-level Series 6000 - with its four screen sizes. Next in line is the step-up Series 7000 which covers five models, and the premier line - Series 8000 with its 46-inch and 55-inch models.
These Samsung LED TVs series however do not use local dimming and instead use edge-LED lighting technology - a totally different beast to LED local dimming technology.
Main features of these Samsung LED TVs are an ultra-thin 1.2-inch slim profile even at 55-inch, mega dynamic contrast ratio of 3,000,000:1, and a 40% lower power consumption - which makes them among the greenest HDTVs.
Popular Samsung edge-lit LED TVs include the 55-inch Samsung UN55B6000 LED TV and the 55-inch UN55B8000; the B8000 offers the latest 'hot' specs - Internet TV capabilities and 240Hz refresh rate technology - both missing on the B6000 LED LCD TV series.
Performance wise, 2009 Samsung edge-lit LED HDTVs are a mixed bag - for the price - with issues that relate to screen uniformity and off-angle viewing in particular. But they also support exceptional deep blacks, accurate primary colors and clean video processing - all important for solid picture performance.
However, the main selling point of the new Samsung edge-lit LED TVs is not their picture performance - most LCD TV reviews published by authority sites agree that some high-end conventional LCD TVs can do better in most areas for less. Rather, it is their ultra sleek design coupled with the latest cutting edge LED technology, and exceptionally low power consumption that make the Samsung edge-lit LED TV bundle hard to beat.
For more information on the full lineup of 2009 Samsung LED TVs, please check our Samsung LED LCD TV review article here.
Sony: Great quality products but... often expensive
A major competitor to Samsung in the area of flat panel LCD HDTVs is Sony. The XBR8 LED HDTV series from 2008, with its local dimming LED Triluminos backlight technology, did turn out to the best LCD HDTV for 2008. XBR8 sets scored well in LCD TV reviews; the only real major problem was their very expensive price tag.
The XBR8 Sony LED TV is still one of the best LCD TVs. It is no surprise therefore that Sony did not come up with a replacement during 2009. The high-end KDL-XBR10 Sony LED TV series use edge-lit technology instead. We did not review these Sony LED HDTVs but the few LCD TV reviews appearing on major review sites confirm that the XBR10 does not outmatch XBR8 sets in black level performance and overall picture quality.
Sony LED TVs
Sony LED TV lineup for 2009 comprises three sets, the two recently released XBR10 sets, the 46 inch Sony KDL-46XBR10 and the larger 52-inch Sony KDL-52XBR10, and the 40-inch Sony Bravia KLV-40ZX1M LED TV released in December 2008. The ZX1M is actually a monitor. All three sets come in an ultra slim profile that is just about an inch thin. Like the Samsung B6000/B7000/B8000 LED TV series, these Sony LED TV uses edge LED lighting instead of LED local dimming technology.
Despite the expensive price tag of the KLV-40ZX1M, this Sony LED TV did not score well in an LCD TV review published on Cnet as it did lack the deep black level performance and screen uniformity found on significantly less expensive conventional LCD HDTVs.
The XBR10 series - also known overseas as ZX5, represents Sony new flagship - with a super slim profile that is less than 0.7-inch thick for the 52-inch model. This ultra slim design is possible thanks to the use of both edge lit LED backlighting technology (LED local dimming does not support such a thin profile), and Wireless-HD.
The latter helps resolve a major design hurdle when it comes to a slim design - connectivity. Wireless-HD helps eliminate all AV connections from the panel by placing these on a separate AV box which then streams high definition audio and video to the display panel. This is the same approach Panasonic used with its super-slim Z1 plasma TVs.
Sony's flagship comes with an extensive feature set and includes Sony MotionFlow 240Hz refresh rate technology, Internet powered TV guide, the latest Bravia Engine 3 image processing, and video streaming from Amazon, Netflix, YouTube, apart from a Sony version of Yahoo! widgets. But its very expensive price will surely turn off most potential HDTV buyers.
Sony XBR9 Premium Line HDTVs
Top on Sony's lineup is the XBR9 series of premium HDTVs, defined by Sony as the 'ultimate in Sony video technology'. This is followed by the Z5100 series. Despite the lower price tag, the Z5100 comes with a very similar feature set to the more expensive Sony lineup.
The XBR9 series comprises four models ranging in size from 32-inch up to the 52-inch KDL-52XBR9 ($2,000). This is equivalent to Samsung Series 7 LCD TVs and is characterized by a multitude of features. As typical with most premium 2009 HDTVs, this expensive line of Sony LCD HDTVs offers a full suite of interactive options termed BRAVIA Internet video/widgets.
Additional features include Sony's MotionFlow 240Hz refresh rate, 100,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, DLNA support, x.v.Colorwide technology for a wider color gamut, and plenty of connectivity options - including four HDMI inputs, three of which are placed on the side instead of the rear connection panel. Interesting is the presence of a TV Guide onscreen EGP for antenna and cable TV channels as well as the possibility to receive firmware updates straight to the TV.
Performance wise, XBR9 LCD HDTVs are capable of deep blacks but that still does not match those of the best LED LCDs and premium plasma HDTVs. Colors are accurate and MotionFlow 240Hz dejudder processing do add that slight improvement over 120Hz based systems - though most would not discern any difference between the two. Dejudder is clean as long as you keep it in standard mode. There is a slight issue with screen uniformity - where large dark areas on the screen appear somewhat brighter in the middle. Yet, Sony XBR9 HDTVs still provide solid overall picture performance that is complemented by a rich feature set; however, these sets real strength is in their suite of interactive internet enabled content.
More on the Sony's high-end XBR series is available in our Sony XBR9 LCD TV review.
Sony Z5100 Series
|
The Sony Z5100 step-down series comes with an almost identical feature set to that of the higher-end XBR9 - including the same 100,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, the same Internet/video widgets (Yahoo widgets), DLNA support, 240Hz refresh rate, and the same connectivity - including the four HDMI inputs. |
The few real differences between the two series relate to a slightly different design - with the Z5100 featuring a somewhat wider frame at the bottom of the screen, and a minimal reduction in the supported color gamut. However, the marginally wider color range of the more expensive series is not much of use with today's available program content.
This series delivers very similar performance to the more expensive lineup at a lower price. Mind you, the Z5100 series do not come cheap either; the 52-inch BRAVIA Z-series LCD HDTV but overall, the Sony Z-series should offer solid value and prove to be an interesting option to those in the market for a quality Sony HDTV without paying the premium of the more expensive series.
Other Sony LCD HDTVs for 2009 include the W5100 range which represents an economic HDTV option while delivering the same interactive functionality as the Z5100 and XBR9 models. Sony V5100 brings a 120Hz refresh rate into Sony's mid-tier models; these sets feature Sony's Motion Flow dejudder processing apart from dynamic backlight, Energy Star 3.0 and 4 HDMI inputs. A detailed LCD TV review of the KDL-V5100 series appears on our site here.

More 2009 LCD HDTVs - Sharp and LG
2009 LCD HDTVs from Sharp
If neither Samsung nor Sony is your brand, then most probably, your favorite top LCD TV brand is Sharp. LCD TV reviews published by authority sites rate Sharp widescreen AQUOS® HDTVs as among the best LCD TVs.
Sharp Aquos LCDs are relatively affordable and generally offer great value for money thanks to a winning combination of generally solid picture performance with accurate colors, numerous picture controls, elegant styling, and superb connective options that often outdo those provided by the competition.
Sharp BD80U SeriesInnovative for 2009 is the Sharp Aquos BD80U Series of LCD HDTVs; these HDTVs come with a built-in Blu Ray player. Screen sizes covered range from 32-inch up to 52-inch. Despite the presence of a built-in Blu Ray player, the BD80U series comes at a rather affordable price. |
Sharp Aquos LC-46BD80U |
The largest within the lineup, the 52-inch Sharp Aquos LC-52BD80U is selling online at $1,800. Sharp do not give any specs for the BD player but the idea of not having to plug in a Blu Ray player and still have four HDMI inputs and two component video inputs for other HD sources is surely appealing.
Other features on the BD80U series include Fine Motion 120Hz dejudder technology, Energy Star 3.0 compliance, and Sharp Advanced Super View anti-glare panel.
Sharp E67U Step-Down Series
For those who do not want the built-in Blu Ray player, Sharp lineup includes two cheaper LCD HDTVs under a separate series - the Sharp Aquos E67U. At approximately $200 less, you miss the Blu Ray player and 120Hz dejudder processing but otherwise, these Sharp Aquos HDTV sets come with identical specs to the BD80U series. Set covered are the 40-inch Sharp LC-40E67U and the 32-inch Sharp LC-32E67U.
Sharp Aquos E77U Step-Up Line
A step further up the Sharp LCD line is the Sharp Aquos E77U series. In our opinion, this is the Sharp Aquos series that offers the best overall value in terms of features, performance and price. Additional features over the E67U include Sharp's Fine Motion 120Hz processing, a 4ms response time and an additional HDMI input for a total of five.
The Aquos E77U series also features larger sizes than the cheaper E67U line; these include the popular 52-inch Sharp Aquos LC-52E77UM - which at under $1,400 online is one of the most affordable LCD HDTVs from a top brand, and the massive Sharp Aquos 65-inch LC-65E77UM.

LG Electronics:
This LCD TV review roundup would not be complete without touching upon one of the fast growing HDTV brands on the market LG Electronics. LG HDTVs have always been characterized by innovation and affordability, and the LG 2009 LCD TV line is no exception.
2009 LG LCD HDTVs are characterized by the largest collection of picture controls one can ever find on any HDTV. These range from gamma targets to color filters to a picture adjustment Picture Wizard designed for non-experts, and that come with built-in test patterns as well. The end result - once calibrated - is a highly accurate color.
This high degree of color accuracy and user customization makes even entry-level LG LCD TVs such as the LG 1080p LH30 series extremely appealing. Despite their relatively inexpensive price tag, these LG LCD TVs come with a complete suite of user controls often lacking even on some of the best premium LCDs from other major brands. We say inexpensive price because sets such as the 42-inch LG 42LH30 would not set you back by more than $750, while the largest in this series, the 47-inch LG 47LH30 is selling at under $1,000.
However, LG's real edge over the competition comes in at the premium category. It is at the higher end of the specs sheet that LG really delivers more for less.
LG Series such as the LH50 with its NetCast Internet TV support and LG's 240Hz LH55 HDTVs are definitely the LCD TVs to look for within the LG lineup.
Equally appealing is the LG LH90 series of LED TVs with local dimming. These LED TVs come at a price that not even edge-lit LED TVs from Samsung or Sony can match. LG LED TVs such as the 47-inch LG 47LH90 and the massive 55-inch LG 55LH90 are selling at almost half the price of the latest Samsung B8500 LED TVs. Yet, these LG TVs come with THX display certification and are capable of excellent black-level performance, solid shadow detail, and highly accurate colors.

Most of the LCD HDTVs we touched upon in this LCD TV review fall within the respective companies' premium and step-up line-ups. But not all applications call for the best LCD TV you can dream of, so...
LCD TV Reviews: Cheap LCD TVs for your home entertainment
Up to a few years ago, a cheap LCD TV meant a risky purchase from some unknown brand. Yet things have changed and relatively cheap LCD TV sets are readily available from all major brands.
We have already referred to sets such as the 40-inch Sharp LC40E77U and the 42-inch LG 42LH30. Despite the inexpensive price, Sharp still managed to include 120Hz refresh rate dejudder processing on the E77U. In a similar manner, the LG 42LH30 share the same extensive suite of user picture controls found on more expensive LG series.
But there are many other inexpensive sets worth considering as a cheap LCD TV option; these include the 40-inch Samsung LN40B550 and the Sony KDL-40S5100. Both Samsung B550 and Sony S5100 series are intended mainly for the budget minded consumer who wants an affordable 1080p LCD HDTV option from a top brand.
|
The Sony's entry-level KDL-S5100 series lacks 120Hz refresh rate dejudder processing but still come with the Bravia Internet Video Link - apart from 3 HDMI inputs, a high dynamic contrast ratio of 30,000:1, and energy efficiency that is in excess of Energy Star 3.0 requirements. The latter is possible thanks to the use of an ambient room light sensor and variable backlight features. |
|
Screen sizes covered under the Sony Bravia S5100 series include the 32-inch KDL-32S5100 ($540), the 40-inch KDL-40S5100 ($680), the 46-inch KDL-46S5100 ($1,000), and the 52-inch KDL-52S5100 ($1,300). While all models in this series are relatively inexpensive, yet it is the 40-inch set that represents the best deal in terms of screen estate.
|
In a similar manner, despite being Samsung entry-level 1080p LCD series, Samsung B550 LCDs represent one of the best 1080p LCD TV series from a top-tier TV maker at this price bracket. These Samsung 1080p LCD TVs are capable of very deep blacks that help render good color saturation; shadow detail is also good. |
And as is typical of Samsung HDTVs, these entry-level LCDs are capable of accurate colors that help scenes look more natural. Connectivity is quite complete and though it lacks S-video input, it still delivers four HDMI and a USB2.0 that supports JPEG files. All is complemented by Samsung usual Touch-of-Color design - which for 2009 takes a more subtle approach.
Screen sizes covered under the Samsung B550 LCD series include the 32-inch LN32B550 ($690), 37-inch LN37B550 ($780), the 40-inch LN40B550 ($850), the 46-inch LN46B550 ($1050), and the largest in the series, the 52-inch LN52B550 ($1,500). However, it is the 46-inch model that in our opinion delivers the best deal in terms of screen estate for your money and therefore represents our preferred choice within this Samsung series.
