    The Good: Relatively inexpensive; accurate color after calibration; energy-efficient; numerous picture controls; superb connectivity with five HDMI inputs; understated, no-nonsense styling.

    The Bad: Produces lighter blacks than some LCDs; poor off-angle viewing characteristics; below-average standard-definition processing.
