As much as we love plasmas' image quality here at CNET, there's no denying that they're power hogs . However, at CES 2009 we've seen several plasma manufacturers showing off new energy-efficient panels. Like Panasonic's NeoPDP plasmas, the Samsung PNB550 series of plasmas claim to consume nearly 50 percent less energy compared to past models. Here are the full details.Minimize

Combined with E3-Panel technology, the PN42C450's 1366 x 768p (720p) plasma panel brings you more than just high definition. While E3-Panel's 600Hz subfield motion delivers incredibly smooth and fluid on-screen motion, its Mega Dynamic Contrast ratio ensures pure black levels and enhanced color performance for sharp detail and vivid color tones.Minimize

This 60" screen offers high definition resolution for your favourite films and TV programmes, and uses 100 Hz scanning to reduce lag by calculating frames at 100 images per second, instead of 50 or 60. The 60PG3000 also comes with an XD Engine image enhancer and a digital comb filter, making graphics seem lifelike, as well as three HDMI sockets and two scart jacks for adding a multimedia hard drive, a DVD recorder or a games console.Minimize

The Panasonic TC-P42G25 42" 1080p Plasma TV may be exactly what you're looking for. Its 42" diagonally measured screen straddles the line between midsize and large sets. If you'll be viewing it from about five to ten feet away you'll find you're close enough to enjoy a good-sized picture but far enough away that you can enjoy the image without noticing the individual pixels that create it.Minimize
