Top Rated Samsung, Panasonic 2009 HDTVs

(October 14, 2009 HDTV-News.org) The HDTV market is holding well in spite of intense economic pressure. Samsung LCD HDTVs continue their reign as the most popular and best selling HDTVs, although the excellent Panasonic G10 Series plasma HDTVs hold their own. Sony continues to stuggle to grab market share from rival Samsung, but the well received—and pricey—52XBR9 is finding favor with some HDTV aficionados. We're partial to the Panasonic G10 plasmas, but don't knock anyone for their preference of the new generation Samsung LCDs. To be fair the gap between plasma and LCD is very narrow and we'd be thrilled to have any of these top-selling sets in our living room.

Here's our picks for the best-of-the-best in the current market:

Great Deal on Top Rated Panasonic G10 Series Plasma

Panasonic Viera TC-P42G10 42-inch 1080p Plasma HDTV

Top Rated 42-inch Plasma HDTV Awesome Price!

The Panasonic TC-P42G10 icon 1080p Plasma HDTV is the top choice. Don't overlook this value-priced set. Excellent picture quality on all program types: HD, SD and DVDs. The TC-P42G10's colors are very accurate, and contrast is excellent, giving images depth and dimension. Black levels very good, second to only the Pioneer KUROs (at a much lower price!). Very good reproduction of scenes with subtly shaded light-to-dark areas. Excellent high-definition film-mode operation effectively eliminates jagged edges on movie content. A special anti-glare coating minimizes the reflections that often plague plasma screens.

The excellent TC-P42G10 is a Best Buy as well, offered at a very competitive price. This top rated set is a fantastic value. Over 93% five star ratings at Amazon.com. The 46-inch and 50-inch G10s are equally impressive and are similarly value-priced.
