    Panasonic Viera TC-L37X1

    • This bargain priced iPod-friendly 37" television is one of the best entry-level models that allows users to access content on their iPods or iPhones. This model has an external docking station that also acts as a charging station for iPod devices. Users are given the option of using the TV's control panel or the iPods' for playback, scanning and accessing content. As far as picture quality, CNET says that this model lacks the type of picture adjustment options that come standard in competing models. However, reviewers say that it "shows good primary and secondary colors (better than the company's plasmas), and a relatively accurate gray-scale."

    Toshiba 40XV648U

    • One of the best rated 40" television set is the Toshiba 40XV648U, according to Consumer Reports magazine. With an overall score of 71 out of 100, this high definition TV set features a 1080p resolution with 3 HDMI inputs, and two component-video inputs. Called a "a fine all-around performer" with a reasonable starting price of just $999 (as of October 2010), Consumer Reports says this model has excellent high definition picture quality and "very good" versatility with a yearly operating cost of about $47.

    LG 37LH20

    • The LG 37LH20 has "a lot to offer with a tempting price," according to CNET. This is one of the best televisions in its class because it's one of the few that features a USB port that enables users to play photos and music from their cameras and laptops. With one of the most complete picture adjustment menus available in a high definition television in this $600 price range, the only major flaw that reviewers have discovered is that this television doesn't display black colors as dark as other sets in this price range.

    Vizio SV422XVT

    • This 42" television set has very good picture quality and viewing angles, according to Consumer Reports magazine. One of the most unusual features for a television in the $800 price range is that is has built-in Wi-Fi connectivity that gives users the ability to stream movies from websites like Amazon and Netflix. Although the Vizio brand was originally known for manufacturing low-end, bargain televisions, Consumer Reports says the company is now offering higher-end televisions with more features. This model has a 1920x1080 resolution, with four HDMI inputs and virtual surround sound.
