As a mid-priced model, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles you might hope for andndash; it's not 3D and there's no streaming content features andndash; but the core performance is solid.http://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/E320VL.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/E320VL.htmThu, 30 Dec 2010 11:16:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Mark Brezinski)The Vizio E320VL is an entry-level 32-inch LCD television. Retailing at approximately $358, you shouldn't expect much, because that's exactly what you get. A whole lot of "not much."http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/BRAVIA-KDL-40EX400.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/BRAVIA-KDL-40EX400.htmThu, 30 Dec 2010 09:50:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sony KDL-40EX400 ($599 MSRP) is an inexpensive 40-inch with few frills that nevertheless manages to deliver a great baseline performance. TVs in this price range are almost commodity items, so it's a welcome site when a TV feels like some care has gone into the design and interface. We think you'll be pleasedhttp://reviewed.com/product/Toshiba/40G300U.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Toshiba/40G300U.htmWed, 29 Dec 2010 12:58:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Toshiba 40G300U ($899 MSRP) is a 40-inch LCD television that offers a decent number of features, but seems to fall a little short of the competition. What features there are, however, are useful and well-implemented.http://reviewed.com/product/LG/47LX6500.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/LG/47LX6500.htmTue, 28 Dec 2010 14:50:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The LG 47LX6500 is a 47-inch LCD that supports 3D display, hence the hefty $2699 MSRP. The standard 2D performance was fantastic, but we suspect that LG has a long way to go in improving its 3D TVs.http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-L37D2.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-L37D2.htmTue, 28 Dec 2010 11:30:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Panasonic TC-L37D2 ($1099 MSRP) is a 37-inch mid-level LCD from a manufacturer that's primarily known for plasma TVs. It comes with a built-in iPod dock andndash; a convenient but ultimately unnecessary feature, considering the hundreds of inexpensive iPod docks on the market that would plug into any HDTV. Coupled with its terrible color performance, we just can't recommend this TV when there are so many better choices in the same price range.http://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/XVT553SV.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/VIZIO/XVT553SV.htmMon, 27 Dec 2010 14:32:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Vizio XVT553SV is a 55-inch LCD TV that offers a lot of bells and whistles, but doesn't forget that performance should be at the core of any great TV. Unfortunately, Vizio has never put an emphasis on exterior design, so you'll have to contend with a beautiful screen in a rather homely frame.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46C7100.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46C7100.htmThu, 23 Dec 2010 18:46:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Samsung UN46C7100 is a 46-inch LCD television capable of 3D display, with an incredibly attractive frame, but it has as many performance problems as it does performance strengths. Samsung clearly spent a lot of time thinking about the visual impact of the design andndash; including an overwrought remote control andndash; but you should definitely be aware of the more troublesome aspects before you fall in love.http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/KDL-NX810.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/KDL-NX810.htmThu, 23 Dec 2010 10:46:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sony KDL-55NX810 has a huge 55-inch screen, but the profile is remarkably thin and attractive. It's a 3D-ready TV with a number of "extra" features that keep it at a relatively high $2899 (that's after a price drop from the original MSRP of $3499). The performance is decent and 3D doesn't seem to be eliciting much excitement from the public, but the online content is excellent, which warrants taking at least a brief look at this TV, especially if you can find it cheaper online.http://reviewed.com/product/Nikon/D7000.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Nikon/D7000.htmThu, 23 Dec 2010 11:31:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)The Nikon D7000 is a powerful SLR that takes great pictures and has plenty of features, but it is also rather expensive. The new SLR boasts a feature set worthy of the high price, though.http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P42GT25.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P42GT25.htmTue, 09 Nov 2010 11:59:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Panasonic TC-P42GT25 ($1699 MSRP) is a 42-inch plasma TV that displays 3D content (as well as 2D, of course). We're still not entirely sold on 3D TVs, but we're sure that at this point, plasma TVs have the advantage. This is a relatively inexpensive gateway into 3D, if you're interested enough to invest in an emerging technology, with good enough performance in everyday 2D viewing to satisfy most usershttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN40C5000.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN40C5000.htmMon, 08 Nov 2010 15:50:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Samsung UN40C5000 ($1199 MSRP) is a 40-inch LCD TV. It comes just short of offering some of Samsung's best high-end features, but delivers on core performance and a few local networking features you might find handy.http://reviewed.com/product/LG/55LE5400.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/LG/55LE5400.htmMon, 23 Aug 2010 17:28:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The LG 55LE5400 is a 55-inch LED-backlit LCD television. Priced at a whopping $2699, most of that money must going towards the large screen, because it\'s certainly lighter on features than most 55-inch TVs. The performance is a bit mixed, but we were ultimately satisfied with what LG has to offer.http://reviewed.com/product/Fuji/FinePix-HS10.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Fuji/FinePix-HS10.htmWed, 11 Aug 2010 12:17:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)The Fujifilm FinePix HS10 is a powerful, feature-packed camera that offers a huge list of features for the serious shooter, but which is cheaper and more convenient than most SLRs.http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/Alpha-NEX-5.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/Alpha-NEX-5.htmFri, 02 Jul 2010 11:54:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)The Sony NEX-5 looks like the result of an experiment in grafting an SLR lens onto the body of a point-and-shoot camera. This $700 camera eschews the usual mirror and viewfinder arrangement of the standard SLR, using the APS-C sensor and large LCD screen to capture and preview the image.http://reviewed.com/product/Sony/XBR-52LX900.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Sony/XBR-52LX900.htmThu, 01 Jul 2010 16:29:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sony XBR-52LX900 ($3999) is a 52-inch LED-edgelit television that can display 3D. As Sony\'s new flagship line of HDTVs, the LX900 series has the combined the bells and whistles of every TV below it, along with a pair of 3D glasses thrown in so you can enjoy 3D straight out of the box. Luxury comes at a price though, and it may be hard for some to justify four grand for a television.http://reviewed.com/product/Bang-and-Olufsen/Sony-KDL-46HX800.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Bang-and-Olufsen/Sony-KDL-46HX800.htmThu, 01 Jul 2010 12:32:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Sony KDL-46HX800 ($2699) is a 46-inch LED-backlit LCD television, and among the first Sony TVs to offer 3D display. Don\'t get too excited yet, though. The HX800 series is merely 3D-ready, which means several more purchases until you\'re actually enjoying the 3D experience.http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P42U2.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P42U2.htmMon, 14 Jun 2010 17:09:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Panasonic TC-P42U2 ($799) is a 42-inch plasma TV, not exactly entry level, but light on features in order to keep the price well under $1000. However, the performance left a lot to be desired, which moves it from the "cheap, but in a good way" pile to simply "cheap."http://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P50G25.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Panasonic/TC-P50G25.htmTue, 08 Jun 2010 12:49:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (David Kender)The Panasonic TC-P50G25 ($1500) is a 1080p 50-inch, entry-level plasma display. For its price, it performed well in our lab testing. An ethernet port offers access to streaming content, Panasonic\'s offerings still lag far behind the competition. On the whole, though, this could make a great, inexpensive hub for your home theater system.http://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46C8000.htmhttp://reviewed.com/product/Samsung/UN46C8000.htmMon, 07 Jun 2010 12:53:00 ESTinfo@reviewed.com (Richard Baguley)The Samsung UN46C8000 ($2799 MSRP) is among the first of the new 3D displays. As such, you run the risks associated with any first-generation products, most notably that the technology will fail to catch on. Should that happen, though, you\'d still be left with an excellent 2D television, albeit one that costs a little more than average.
