Vizio XVT553SV Review

Vizio has come a long way over the past century and has finally stepped up to the plate with an amazing LED TV that outshines the rest with its overall high picture quality and affordable price. We were actually a bit surprised to see the brand name Vizio come out on top when it came to decision time. While the Vizio XVT553SV LED TV may not be the thinnest and most amazing TV to look at in terms of slick rounded curves, it makes up for it with outstanding picture quality and overall ease of use. It is one of the first TVs from this company to really compare to other large companies such as Samsung, Sony and LG. The XVT553SV officially received our TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award and stands among the best LED TVs on the market today with its amazing black levels and true color levels.

LG INFINIA 55LX9500 Review

LG has been a huge competitor for decades in the world of television technology. The new LG INFINIA 55LX9500 LED TV lives up to the high standard they set for themselves. The one thing that makes this TV stand out against the crowd is its 3D image technology. Its 3D technology has some kinks that need to be worked out, but they still pull it off to an extent. The 55LX9500 is one of the thinnest side-lit LED TVs we have seen, at just under an inch thick. While it does offer a ton of features and has some new technology, you’ll need to have some spare change to buy this TV. Even though it does cost a little more than other TVs it received our TopTenREVIEWS Silver Award because of the outstanding picture quality, slick design and overall huge list of features available.

Samsung UN55C8000 Review

Samsung has always been one of the top competitors when it comes to the latest and greatest in TVs of any shape or size. The Samsung UN55C8000 which received our TopTenREVIEWS Bronze Award is a perfect example of what they can do with a technology like LED lighting. At just under an inch thick this is the thinnest LED TV on the market but comes with a slightly higher price tag than others. The UN55C8000 is also the first 3D TV Samsung has released and they've done a better job than most with this new technology. They have also integrated a new apps platform which will continue to grow for as long as you have the TV.

LG INFINIA 55LE8500 Review

When it comes to finding an LED TV that has a sleek look and delivers on picture quality, LG has been in the competition for quite some time. Even though the LG INFINIA 55LE8500 isn’t the latest and greatest model LG has released, it's still in the running thanks to its stacked feature set, great picture quality and high performance without the high price tag. Unlike the LG 55LX9500, which offers the new 3D technology, the 8500 is only available in the standard 2D. While this may seem like a major drawback, it really isn't; 3D technology is still in the works and has many issues that still need to be worked out. We would suggest holding off on 3D technology for the time and waiting until it gets perfected before purchasing a 3D-capable LED TV.

Samsung UN55B8000 Review

Samsung has positioned itself as one of the premier LCD TV makers which is no wonder with models like the Samsung UN55B8000 which is a year old and still stands out. This offering from Samsung features a 55 inch screen perfect for watching movies at home. The screen is surrounded by a glossy black bezel which displays the Samsung logo below the screen. The screen itself is only 1.2 inches deep which allows this model to be mounted on your wall with ease when using Samsung’s wall mount. This LED TV only protrudes from the wall an amazing 2 inches. The slim screen is supported by a crystal-clear neck which fits nicely with any room’s décor.

Sony Bravia KDL55HX800 Review

Sony is a household name in the electronics industry. But sadly when it comes to LED TVs, they aren't on top. The Sony Bravia KDL55HX800 does offer 3D comparable to the Samsung UN55C8000 and is offered at a much better price, so if 3D is a must-have and you want to save a little money this may be a good choice for you. The HX800 series is the most affordable 3D TV available from Sony, but unfortunately you get what you pay for with this unit. The LED TV itself is quite thick at 2.9 inches and has right around the same specs you would expect to find on a mid-range LED TV.

Samsung UN55B7000 Review

It’s no secret that Samsung has the market cornered when it comes to LED backlit LCD TVs. They have no fewer than 3 complete lines that feature LED. The Samsung UN55B7000, like its older brother the 8000 series, features a simple design. The high gloss bezel that surrounds the LED TV gives a sense of class to the set. The Samsung logo is displayed in its usual location, centered below the screen. The screen is supported by a matching pedestal base for those who choose to not wall mount the screen.

LG 55LH90 Review

The LG 55LH90 features an all black exterior which is typical of most LED TVs these days. The only visible distinction on the face of the TV is the LG logo placed prominently below the screen. The edges of the screen are straight on all sides except the bottom which has a slight curve to it. The gloss black chassis is so glossy that it is almost mirror-like. Beware if you put this in a room with a lot of ambient lighting because it will wash out the scren. The screen is also supported by a pedestal that matches both color and style to the screen.

Vizio VF551XVT Review

Vizio might be the new guy on the block when it comes to LED TVs, but they are quickly making some waves in the industry and it is no wonder with models like the Vizio VF551XVT. This older LED TV model from Vizio features an all black screen with a slim bezel that surrounds the 55 inch screen. Beneath the screen is a floating silver trim that in our opinion looks somewhat out of place compared to newer TV models, but it does distinguish this TV from the LED TV market. The screen is supported by a matching pedestal base.

Toshiba 55SV670U Review

The Toshiba 55SV670U is pretty standard fare for LED TVs. It features a solid black bezel that wraps around the screen. There is a hint of silver near the bottom of the screen, which is where you will find the build in speakers. Unlike the newer TVs it is very easy to see where the speakers are and the overall design of the screen is much blockier. The 55 inch screen is supported by a matching pedestal base, but does not swivel for better viewing angles.
