Samsung PN58B550

$1,418.00 to $1,509.00



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

Panasonic TCP42G25

$1,008.00 to $10,735.00



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
