Title: LG 50PG6000
Pros: HD picture quality; styling; sound quality; connectivity
Cons: Freeview picture quality wasn't brilliant at times
Verdict: If you're looking for a TV that offers a lot of bang for your buck, this must surely be a contender. We really like the picture and sound quality and although we've seen TVs handle Freeview better, HD looks brilliant and gaming was fantastic, too
Summary: The LG 50PG6000 is designed for people who want a big screen that will look good in their lounges. Fortunately, it packs several nice touches that make it a great choice for a simple, easy to use TV, and has a wealth of connectivity options to suit home c

Title: LG 50PB65
Pros: Phenomenally cheap; bags of features; intense colours
Cons: Standard definition pictures look noisy; contrast range isn't the best; image doesn't refresh as fast as we'd like
Verdict: You have to take your hat off to the LG 50PB65 for being the first mainstream brand model we've seen to offer a well-specified 50-inch TV for under £1,200. But perhaps inevitably you need to be prepared to accept a few sacrifices on the performance
Summary: At amazing value for money, the LG 50PB65 50-inch plasma TV is also packed with picture processing and incredibly intense, vibrant colours. It's HD-friendly and objects move across the screen with amazing clarity. Plus, it looks great, with a polished dar

Title: LG 42PC55
Pros: Attractive price, Good looking, Good connections
Cons: Awful presets, Standard-def images fail to impress, Average audio
Verdict: Its the cheapest brand name 42-inch plasma out there, but you'll need to invest in pricey HD sources to get the best from it
Summary: LG is a brand desperate to improve its image. Having seen chief rival Samsung elevate itself to premium status through consistently good design and adventurous technology, it clearly thinks a copycat strategy will pay dividends

Title: LG RZ-42PX11
Pros: Standard definition digital video performance, Value
Cons: Occasional artefacts with low quality pictures, Only one RGB Scart
Verdict: There's even a slick picture-in-picture system at your disposal, plus a clever 'low power' option that potentially makes the RZ-42PX11 even more of a bargain-hunter's dream by reducing the brightness to use less power and, potentially, increase the TV's l
Summary: It had to happen eventually. LG has been edging nearer and nearer that magic £2,000 figure for a 42in plasma TV - and with its new sub-£2,000 RZ-42PX11, it's finally made it. In fact, we've seen it selling at Comet online for as little as £1,450. Remarkab

Title: LG 42PX4DV
Pros: Good connectivity, Sharp picture, Great value
Cons: Contrast ratio misleading
Verdict: Another feature that belies the 42PX4DV's budget status is its digital TV tuner (there's analogue too), which provides access to 30-odd digital Freeview channels and an eight-day electronic programme guide
Summary: We've said it many times before, but this screen has made us feel the need to say it again: when you're eyeing up potential TVs, don't pay too much attention to the quoted specifications - especially the contrast ratio.
