LCD Televisions: Sleek, bigger, and more affordable than ever...

Updated on: 14^th June 2009

Samsung LN52B750 52-inch 240Hz with gray 'Touch of Color' Best-selling 52-inch 1080p LCD TV from the 2009 Samsung Lineup

Up to not long ago, plasma ruled the flat panel TV world. For anything above 40 inches, plasma TV sets offered superior performance at more affordable prices than LCD TVs.

But as you will see in our LCD TV reviews, things are changing fast. The gap between these two display technologies has almost disappeared. In particular, the price difference for screen sizes up to 46-inch between the two have practically vanished.

Picture performance of latest LCD HDTV sets has improved to the point that issues like high refresh rates, supported wide angle of view, and high contrast levels, are no longer a prerogative of plasma displays.

In addition, while LCD televisions may still exhibit some image retention, yet burn-in is not an issue with LCD TVs. Admittedly, this is equally not worth worrying about with respect to the latest plasmas especially if you do not push the brightness level too far but...

If you want a bright screen in a brightly lit room, LCD is your best way forward.

OK, there are areas where LCD televisions are at a disadvantage compared with plasma TVs. Their inherently technical limitations to completely block light from the backlight from reaching the surface make it difficult for LCDs to handle dark images correctly while still preserving the right brightness levels for bright parts of the image.

In particular, it is not easy for LCDs to handle shadow detail in predominantly dark scenes. Plasma displays take the upper hand here. Similarly, screen uniformity and loss of black level intensity with off-axis viewing are often problematic issues with many LCD TVs.

[For a detailed discussion on the main differences between plasma and LCD, check our plasma vs. LCD TV article].

Samsung vs. Sony - The World's Top LCD TV Makers

Samsung - A World Leader in the LCD HDTV Market

But not all LCDs perform the same... Way back in March 2008, Samsung came out with the Samsung LN52A650 52" 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV, a superb LCD HDTV that is among the best  ever released and that a year down the line, is still one of the top sellers at major retail stores. This Samsung LCD TV can do a remarkable job in holding its superb deep level of black even with extreme off-axis viewing. Furthermore, in an LCD TV review published on CNET, this Samsung LCD TV proved capable of exceptional performance - from extremely deep black levels to highly accurate colors and equally important, clean video processing. This Samsung LCD HDTV forms part of Samsung premium Series 6 LCDs for 2008.

The corresponding 2009 Samsung Series 6 - identified by the 'B650' label instead of the 'A650' used on the 2008 lineup - comes with a few additional enhancements over the 2008 series - this apart from the fact that instead of a 52-inch, the largest screen size in the lineup is now a 55-inch, the LN55B650 ($2,550). However, at the time of this write-up, the best selling model from within B650 series is the 46-inch LN46B650 ($1,780) - thanks to its more affordable price tag.

Enhancements in this year Series 6 lineup include a 100,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio instead of the 50,000:1 found on the A650 as well as a full suite of interactivity options. These range from Internet@TV capabilities in the form of Yahoo Widgets; there is also a built-in content library and DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) support to simplify multimedia sharing in the home. We have not reviewed this year lineup but expect that it should deliver similar performance to that of the extremely successful 2008 line, apart from the expected deeper blacks of the B650 in view of the higher dynamic contrast ratio of the new lineup.

Samsung Series 7

Another excellent 2009 Samsung LCD HDTV and which is already proving to be popular at major retail stores is the 52-inch LN52B750. Main enhancement over the B650 is that the B750 series adds 240Hz refresh rate - apart from a faster response time of 2ms instead of the 4ms found on the Series 6 and a higher dynamic contrast ratio rating of 150,000:1.

Consumer feedback at amazon shows that customers are extremely satisfied with this 52-inch HDTV. The only technical compliant being that sound quality is not that good - but then this is typical of most of today's flat panel TVs. In terms of popularity, we expect the LN52B750 Samsung HDTV to become what the LN52A650 has been for 2008. At its reduced price tag of less than $2,500, rich and technologically advanced feature set, and solid picture performance, this 52-inch 1080p 240Hz LCD HDTV has all the ingredients to become the No. 1 best selling LCD HDTV for 2009.

Samsung LED TVs

Speaking of Samsung, this is also 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. We expect a replacement to the A950 series later this year - possibly in September. The A950 Samsung LED TVs are capable of black levels that are unsurpassed by any CCFL-based LCD - to the point that when displaying dark content in completely darkened room, these sets literally disappear in the background. Mind you, LED LCD TVs have got their issues as well - apart from the expensive price tag, but more on this in our LED LCD TV review of the Samsung A950.

As to Samsung LED TVs for 2009, you have a choice of eleven models, starting with entry-level Series 6 - which comprises four screen sizes, moving on to step-up Series 7 which covers five models, and the premier line - Series 8 with its 46-inch and 55-inch models. The Samsung LED TVs released so far do not use local dimming and instead use edge-LED lighting technology.

55-inch UN55B7000 Samsung LED TV

The latter made it possible to achieve a 1-inch thick profile even at 55-inch; truly impressive especially when these sets are viewed from the side. Main step-up over conventional CCFL based LCDs - apart from their one inch thick profile, is their mega dynamic contrast ratio of 3,000,000:1 and a 40% lower power consumption - which makes them the greenest HDTVs presently available on the market.

Most popular model from within the new Samsung LED TV lineup is the 55-inch UN55B6000 LED TV - possibly because it offers the best mix of cutting edge LED lighting technology and affordability at this screen size.

These LED HDTVs do not come cheap. Expect to spend almost $1,000 more than corresponding conventional LCD HDTVs. The popular Samsung LN46B750 LCD TV is selling at almost $2,000 as against the $2,990 of the Samsung UN46B7000 LED HDTV. And considering, the LED TV comes with 120Hz while the B750 comes with 240Hz refresh rate.

Performance wise, these new Samsung LED HDTVs are a mixed bag - with a not so good performance - with respect to their price tag - for issues that relate to screen uniformity, side viewing and background brightness, but that also offer exceptional deep blacks, accurate primary colors and clean video processing.

In reality, the main selling point of the new Samsung edge-lit LED TVs is not their picture performance - LCD TV reviews here show that some conventional LCD TVs can do better for less. Rather, it is their ultra sleek design coupled with cutting edge LED technology, exceptionally low power consumption that makes these HDTVs among the greenest around, and their impressive feature set, that make the Samsung LED TV bundle hard to beat.

For more information on the full lineup of 2009 Samsung LED TVs, please check our full Samsung LED LCD TV review here.

Samsung is the No. 1 HDTV flat-panel manufacture in the world. It is also the TV maker that year after year, is coming up with the largest selection of flat-panel TVs, offering innovative feature-rich HDTVs that are characterized by stylish designs, superb performance and affordability. It is therefore no surprise that in the majority of cases, Samsung LCD HDTVs score among the top in both LCD TV reviews published on authority sites and consumer feedback alike.

Sony: Great quality products but... often expensive

A major competitor to Samsung in the area of flat panel LCD HDTVs is Sony. Last Year XBR8 LED HDTV series - with its LED Triluminos backlight technology - did turn out to the best LCD HDTV for 2008. As most LCD TV reviews did show, this very expensive LED HDTV series offer exceptional picture performance that is on par with premium plasmas from Pioneer and Panasonic, performance that is still unsurpassed by most of the latest 2009 LCD HDTVs we have seen so far.

Sony LED TV

Like Samsung A950 flagship LED HDTV series, Sony has not yet announced a replacement for its XBR8 line; the only LED TV presently available within the Sony lineup is the 40-inch Sony Bravia KLV-40ZX1M LED TV. And like the Samsung B6000/B7000/B8000 lineup, this Sony LED TV uses edge LED lighting instead of LED backlighting with local dimming technology.

But as stated in our LCD TV review of the Samsung 2009 LED TV lineup, while edge LED technology carries a number of advantageous over both conventional CCFL backlights and LED backlights using local dimming - in particular with their lower power consumption and ultra slim profile, yet overall picture and video performance is not exactly on par with local dimming LED lighting technology.

This is also the case with the KLV-40ZX1M. We did not review this LED TV but Cnet reports that while this 1.1-inch thick LCD LED TV exhibits accurate colors and very good energy efficiency - apart from the numerous picture controls, yet it lacks the black level performance and screen uniformity found on significantly less expensive conventional LCD HDTVs.

One thing worth taking note here with respect to 2009 LED LCD TVs is that TV makers are referring to LED LCD HDTVs simply as LED TVs - without actually differentiating between 'local dimming LED light technology' and 'edge-lit LED technology.'

We believe that this is being done on purpose. For many non technically-minded consumers, LED lighting technology represents the latest cutting edge technology in HDTVs. This is correct. What is incorrect however is that this is leading many to equate expensive LED TVs with a great picture. This is not necessarily so. The reality is that there is a significant difference in picture performance between edge-lit LED TVs and LED TVs using LED local dimming technology.

Sony XBR9 Premium Line HDTVs

LED TVs apart, Sony is also offering a full range of conventional LCD TVs. Top in the line is the XBR9 series of premium line 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.

Sony 2009 XBR9 Series

The XBR9 lineup comprises four models ranging in size from 32-inch up to the 52-inch KDL-52XBR9. It is characterized by a multitude of features and as typical with most premium 2009 HDTVs, this expensive line of Sony LCD HDTVs also offers a whole suite of interactive options termed BRAVIA Internet video/widgets. The latter lets you enjoy both premium and free on-demand online entertainment directly to your HDTV from online content providers including Amazon Video On Demand, YouTube™, Sports Illustrated, Sony Pictures, Sony Music, Slacker, and Epicurious.com.

Additional features on the XBR9 include Sony's Motionflow 240Hz refresh rate, 100,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, DLNA support, x.v.Colorwide technology which do provide for a wider color gamut, and plenty of connectivity options - including four HDMI inputs, three of which are being 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.

This is also one of those 2009 HDTVs that come with a smart eco menu that includes a room-lighting sensor to automatically adjust the screen brightness accordingly, a mode to turn off the screen but leave the sound on, and another mode to automatically turn the TV after a set period of inactivity.

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 we believe that most users would not be able to 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 - similar to that found on the Samsung UNB7000 LED TV series - where large dark areas on the screen appear somewhat brighter in the middle.

Overall however, the Sony XBR9 expensive lineup does provide solid picture performance that is complemented by a rich feature set. Their only real issue is the relatively expensive price tag, which stands at some $300 more than that of the Sony Z5100.

Sony Z5100 Series

Sony 52-inch KDL-52Z5100

The irony is that the Sony Z5100 step-down series comes with an almost identical feature set to that of the higher-end XBR9 lineup - 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 also a minimal reduction in the supported color gamut. However, the marginal improvement in the supported color range of the more expensive series would not produce any noticeable difference to the majority of viewers.

We did not review yet the Z5100 but we expect this series to deliver very similar performance to the more expensive lineup. Mind you, the Z5100 series do not come cheap either; the 52-inch BRAVIA Z-series LCD HDTV costs around $3,000. This price tag is somewhat more expensive than that of its main competitor, the 52-inch Samsung LN52B750 - and which also come with 240Hz refresh rate dejudder and Yahoo widgets. But overall, the Sony Z-series offers solid value and should prove of interest to those in the market for a quality Sony HDTV without paying the price of the more expensive Sony series.

Other Sony LCD HDTVs for 2009 include the W550 range which features both Bravia Engine 3 and AppliCast - a sort of basic Internet-on-TV functionality, the V550 which Sony describes as being your 'digital hub' - thanks to its DLNA support, and the S550 aimed at people who want a Sony, but do not want to pay for the expense associated with the higher-spec models.

More 2009 LCD HDTVs - Sharp and LG

New 2009 LCD HDTVs from Sharp

If neither Samsung nor Sony is your brands, then most probably, your favorite top LCD TV brand is Sharp. LCD TV reviews published by authority sites constantly rate Sharp widescreen AQUOS^® HDTVs as among the best LCD TVs.

Sharp BD80U Series Innovative 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 with a rather affordable price tag.

Sharp Aquos LC-46BD80U with built-in Blu Ray Player

The largest within the lineup, the 52-inch Sharp Aquos LC-52BD80U is selling online at under $1,800. Admittedly, Sharp did 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 Aquos 32-inch LC-32E67U 1080p LCD HDTV

Sharp E67U Step-Down Series For those who do not want the built-in Blu Ray player, Sharp also provides two cheaper LCD HDTVs under a separate series - the Sharp Aquos E67U. At approximately $200 less, you would not get the Blu Ray player and 120Hz dejudder processing but otherwise, these Sharp Aquos HDTV sets come with an otherwise identical specs sheet to the BD80U series. Set covered are the 40-inch Sharp Aquos LC-40E67U and the 32-inch Sharp Aquos LC-32E67U.

Sharp Aquos E77U Step-Up Line

Stepping up from the E67U series is the Sharp Aquos E77U lineup. In our opinion, this is the Sharp Aquos series that offers the best overall price, features, performance deal. 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 - including the popular 52-inch Sharp Aquos LC-52E77U - which at under $1,500 online is one of the most affordable LCD HDTVs from a major brand, and the massive 65-inch LC-65E77U [will be available in June].

Sharp LCDs are relatively affordable and generally offer great value for money. Even more so if you were to opt for one of the latest releases from 2008. A case in point is the 52-inch Sharp Aquos LC-52D65U released in October last year. This 52-inch LCD HDTV has constantly emerged in various LCD TV reviews as one of the best LCD HDTVs. Despite its rather poor off-angle viewing and somewhat lighter blacks than most LCDs, yet at under $1,400, this relatively inexpensive Sharp LCD HDTV represents solid value thanks to a winning combination of accurate colors, numerous picture controls, elegant styling, and superb connective options - include five HDMI ports.

LG Electronics:

This LCD TV review roundup would not be complete without touching upon one of the fast growing HDTV brands on the market. During the last few years, LG has been constantly gaining market share in both plasma and LCD HDTV markets, and although it is not one of the giant TV makers, yet it is not afraid to come up with innovative design concepts.

	Case in point is the LG 47LG60 (pictured here) from the LG60 flagship series we featured last year. Its unique styling - coupled with a top of the line feature set and solid overall performance as further indicated in LCD TV reviews published on both CNET and Sound & Vision magazine, are the reason behind the LG60 success.
For 2009, LG has once again come up with a most complete lineup of LCD HDTVs - characterized by the largest collection of picture controls one can ever find on any HDTV. This was also typical of 2008 models with LG HDTVs featuring a full suite of user-menu color adjustments. And this year, there is even more - ranging 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 customization makes even entry-level LG sets such as the LG LH30 series of LCD HDTVs extremely appealing. Mind you, the LH30 line is quite interesting in itself. These sets do come with 24p (2:2 pulldown) film processing though it does not include the 120Hz dejudder processing present on the more expensive sets.		LG 42-inch Entry Level 42LH30 LCD HDTV

As indicated earlier on in the LCD TV review article, these LG HDTVs do come with a complete suite of user controls often lacking even on some of the best premium LCDs from other major brands.  All is bundled with a relatively inexpensive price tag, thus making these LG HDTVs among the best 'cheap LCD TVs' presently available for home entertainment. We say cheap because a 42-inch model from within this lineup, the 42-inch LG 42LH30 would not set you back by more than $900, while the largest in this series, the 47-inch LG 47LH30 is presently selling online at under $1,200.

However, the LH30 is just one of eight series of LCD HDTVs on the LG portfolio. We hope to cover the full LG lineup in a separate article. For the scope of this LCD TV Review roundup, there are two more LG series we would like to discuss here in a bit more detail, the LH50 and the LH55.

LG LH50 Series

The LG LH50 series is the only line of LG LCDs that will allow you to stream Netflix movies directly on your TV without the need for additional hardware - thanks to LG NetCast Entertainment Access feature.

LG internet connectivity will also allow access to YouTube video, images from Flickr and Yahoo! widgets similar to the Internet@TV and TV widgets features found on Samsung and Sony HDTVs already referred to in this LCD TV review article.

Other interesting features include 24p Real Cinema 5:5 Pulldown technology which enables sharper images from film based content, LG TruMotion 120Hz dejudder processing, four HDMI inputs, 80,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio rating, and an intelligent sensor as part of its smart energy saving feature that automatically adjust the picture color and brightness in relation to the color and brightness of the viewing area.

Sizes covered under this series include the LG 42-inch 42LH50 and the 47-inch 47LH50.

LG LH55 Series

The LH55 series introduces LG to 240Hz refresh rate dejudder processing. It  covers four models, the 37-inch 37LH55, the 42-inch 42LH55, the 47-inch 47LH55 and the 55-inch 55LH55; the 37-inch model is the smallest 240Hz LCD we have come across so far.

Apart from the 240Hz refresh rate upgrade, other features are similar to that of the HL50 except that the LH55 does not come with LG NetCast - implying that it does not support internet connectivity.

What renders the LH55 series interesting is the way LG is implementing its 240Hz dejudder processing. Unlike most major TV makers which interpolate three frames every four frames displayed to get the 240Hz refresh rate, LG is using what it calls 'scanning backlight' technology. According to the company, this outperforms other 240Hz methods. The backlight flashes on and off extremely quickly to generate three blank frames for every frame of real content from the 60Hz source.

This 240Hz technology is the same as that used by both Vizio and Toshiba. According to LG, this 240Hz implementation - while still capable of eliminating motion blur - is technically cheaper to produce as it requires less image processing than the so called MEMC system used by both Samsung and Sony LCD TVs featured in this LCD TV review.

This series do not come cheap - but then this is a 240Hz lineup. Expect to spend around $3,100 for the 55-inch 55LH55 - which is more or less in line with other 55-inch LCDs from other top brands. The best selling LCD TV from this LG series is the 42-inch 42LH55 which at $1,500, comes with a more affordable price tag than other screen sizes in this LG HDTV series.

So far, we have mainly focused on some of the very best LCD TV sets presently available from top brands. 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 a premium LCD TV, so...

What about affordable LCD TVs  that can still do a good job in delivering a great picture for your kitchen, kids bedroom, playroom, or in that case, any application you can dream of where budget is a primary consideration?

LCD TV Reviews: Cheap LCD TVs for your home entertainment

During the last years, we have seen a drastic fall in prices of flat-panel displays. Sub $1,000 40-inch 1080p LCD HDTV sets have become a common reality.

Up to a few years ago, a cheap LCD TV meant a risky purchase from some unknown brand. Yet one can no longer skip over the so called cheap LCD TV sets - especially in the face of the ever increasing list of inexpensive LCD HDTVs from a few leaders in the industry.

We have already referred to sets such as the 40-inch Sharp LC40E77U and the 42-inch LG 42LH30 which are both selling at under $1,000. Despite the inexpensive price tag for a name brand HDTV, 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 as found on more expensive lineups. 

But there are many other inexpensive sets as well - including the 40-inch Samsung LN40B550 and the Sony KDL-40S5100.

The Sony's entry-level KDL-S5100 series - though it lacks the 120Hz refresh rate dejudder processing, 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 - thanks to its ambient room light sensor and variable backlight features.

Sony 40-inch KDL-40S5100

In a similar manner, the Samsung LN40B550 is one of the most feature rich 1080p LCD HDTVs from a top TV maker at this price bracket - this apart from its stylish Touch-of-Color frame, four HDMI inputs, deep blacks, good color saturation, and very good overall shadow detail.

LCD TV Reviews - Article Index

As more manufactures compete to come up with feature-packed LCD HDTV sets, larger screen sizes, and improved picture quality at lower prices, consumers are being faced with a never-ending list of models and brands to choose from.

We therefore hope that the LCD TV Reviews featured under this section will be of some assistance in your choice of a suitable LCD television.
