The Samsung LN46C650 is a basic internet-capable LCD HDTV with some decent picture quality. If you're just looking for a solid TV with an ethernet port and not a lot of superfluous extras, the LN46C650 is a good pick at $1300.

The LG 47LX6500 ($2699 MSRP) has a lot of intriguing features, most notably the 3D display. It's LG's first attempt at a 3D TV (along with the LX9500 series), and we're sorry to say that it's a poor result. Sure, it's a very good 2D performer, but who wants to pay the "early adopter tax" if the 3D effect is a headache-inducing mess?

The Samsung UN32C4000 is a nice little entry-level LED HDTV. The TV performed well on most of our tests, but at $699.99, it's priced far higher than the average entry-level 32-inch set.

The LG 55LE5400 ($2699) seems expensive, but that's an awful lot of screen for the money. The color performance on this 55-inch LED-backlit TV is outstanding, among the best we've seen in some time. Conversely, the black level is terrible, even for an LCD display. Overall, there's a lot to like about this TV, and the benefits greatly outweigh its deficiencies.
