LG W2363V review

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 15:44:01 +0000

Despite an array of unnecessary lighting gimmicks, the 23-inch W2363V is a great choice for gamers. Boasting an excellent range of inputs, a good design and sturdy build quality, its impressive contrast performance makes games look fantastic, resulting in a more engaging experience

LG LU7000 (22LU7000) review

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 12:46:02 +0000

The 22-inch, HD Ready 22LU7000 LCD TV isn't perfect, but it still outclasses the majority of other combination TVs, and its front-mounted, built-in DVD player is unusually practical. Such is the TV's convenience, in fact, that we think many people seeking a secondary set may be happy to overlook a couple of picture flaws

LG SL9000 (42SL9000) review

Mon, 09 Nov 2009 14:57:02 +0000

The 42-inch, 1080p, LED-edge-lit 42SL9000 is a mighty handsome LCD TV, with an astonishingly slender profile. It also offers tonnes of features, good picture quality and an extremely attractive user interface. Overall, it's an admirable attempt at stealing Samsung's super-slim-TV crown

LG SL8000 (42SL8000) review

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 10:10:02 +0000

The strikingly slim, 42-inch, 1080p 42SL8000 is the best LG LCD TV we've seen so far. It's packed to bursting point with features and connections, its pictures are great 99 per cent of the time, and it looks beautiful. For the price, it's also remarkably good value

Cello C3298FR review

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 10:38:02 +0000

Neither the C3298FR's audio or video performance is anything to get particularly excited about. But the fact that this 32-inch, HD Ready LCD TV with built-in DVD player can record programmes via its two built-in Freeview tuners to SD cards means it's definitely worth considering for those with cutting-edge tastes

Panasonic Viera G15 (TX-P46G15) review

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 16:37:02 +0000

The 46-inch, 1080p Viera TX-P46G15 plasma TV offers plenty of value for money. Although its standard-definition pictures aren't perfect, its high-definition performance is terrific, and it's stuffed with features, including Panasonic's Viera Cast online service, and built-in freesat and Freeview tuners

Philips 7000 (32PFL7404H/12) review

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 12:07:01 +0000

The 32-inch, 1080p 32PFL7404H/12 LCD TV may lack some of the potency of Philips' expensive 9000-series sets, but it's easily one of the finest tellies in its class when you compare it to similarly priced models. Bargain hunters will be delighted by its great picture quality and cornucopia of features

Sony Bravia E5300 (KDL-22E5300) review

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 10:45:01 +0000

The 22-inch, HD Ready Bravia KDL-22E5300 LCD TV blew our socks off so far that we still haven't found them. Its design is striking, its feature set is ambitious, and, most importantly, its picture quality is superb for such a small TV. This set's expensive, but, if you can afford it, you should buy it

Cello C1973FIP review

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 09:57:02 +0000

With a built-in iPod dock and DVD player, the 19-inch, HD Ready C1973FIP LCD TV will appeal to those who are either short on space or just hate clutter. You can't expect top-notch picture quality from a machine of this type at this price, but it offers decent performance and convenience in a cute design

Panasonic Viera V10 (TX-P58V10) review

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 12:13:01 +0000

With Pioneer about to abandon the UK TV scene, the 58-inch, 1080p Viera TX-P58V10 plasma telly has emerged as a hugely worthy heir to the mega-screen throne. Besides tonnes of features and connections, this colossal set offers spectacular pictures that outstrip Panasonic's already very high standards
