| The Bottom Line | The Vizio SV470XVT represents a viable alternative for LCD TV bargain hunters who want 120Hz processing. | Sure, it has a few flaws, but nothing fatal prevents the local dimming, LED-backlit Vizio VF551XVT from exhibiting excellent LCD picture quality for the buck. | CNET did not review the Vizio SV420XVT, but we did review a larger model in the series. | It costs a mint, but Samsung's local dimming, LED-based UNB8500 series delivers the best picture quality of any LCD we've tested. | Samsung's PNB650 series can't quite match the best plasmas on the market, but it comes close enough to offer a viable alternative. |
