The Sanyo PDP-42XS1 is not the best plasma on the market and considering the fact that it is standard definition and has image flaws, it is not our first choice.

The 50PX5D isn't the best Plasma on the market and has its problems but the image quality isn't completely terrible from a reasonable viewing distance.

If you have the will power to overlook quite a few visual aberrations, then this display might do the job.

One of the best options for consumers looking for a high quality image and large display size.

One of the best plasma units we have seen - and good value too

While the swanky PDP-435HD is a fair performer overall and a good screen for DVDs, we've seen better image quality from Pioneer.

The 42PF9966 offers very high overall picture quality at a relatively low price. But it would be more appealing with an HD tuner and an extra digital video input

The PX-42XR3W may offer too few amenities to satisfy many consumers. But its great image quality and low price make it a fine choice for people who want to hook up their set to an external HDTV tuner.
