Review Summary

The first consumer-grade plasma TV offering professional video calibration, this Pioneer not only offers Hollywood-tuned hues but also future-proofed 1080p connectivity.

The Sony Bravia KDL-46Z5500 may lack a Web content streaming element, but it's a solid all-rounder in just about every aspect, from design to performance.



More info

The LG 47SL90QD stands out with its 29.3mm-slim bezel and onboard Bluetooth function, but there's still room for improvement in the picture and audio departments.
