The best have excellent picture quality, with good brightness and contrast from any angle. However, a plasma TV's shiny surface
can produce reflections, and static images displayed for a long time--such as stock tickers or video games--can burn in.
Less-familiar brands of plasma TVs being sold at chains such as Costco, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, and Circuit City cost much less
than major brands, which is tempting. But those we've tested have been middling to mediocre, so you'll trade quality for price.
We've been testing more LCD TVs, most with 40- to 45-inch screens. Some 1080p models with native resolution of 1920x1080
look impressive.
However, the newer brands don't have any track record at this point. We have preliminary data for some established brands
of LCD TVs that raise no repair concerns during the first year of use, though we have no long-term data on any LCD TVs yet.
At this point, a plasma TV still offers more for the money in 42-inch and larger sizes. If a 32- or 37-inch screen would
do, an LCD is a good choice for a main TV.
The best LCD TVs display very good, bright HD images, and the antireflective surface minimizes the reflections and glare
that often plague plasma screens. But LCD TVs haven't caught up with plasma TVs for viewing angle, color accuracy, and the
ability to display the deepest black. Also, fast motion may blur. As a result, their picture-quality scores aren't as high
as those for plasma sets.

ConsumerReports.org - LCD TVs: How to choose

Weigh the merits of an extended warranty. While extended warranties aren't worthwhile for most products, they may be for high-priced devices using new technologies.
Because LCD TVs are costly items that haven't yet established a track record for reliability, check into the cost of a service
plan. Find out whether in-home service is covered and whether a replacement is provided if a set can't be repaired. Our preliminary
survey data found no repair problems during the first year of use for LCD sets, but it's too early to comment on later years.
Look for easy-to-use inputs.
Check the viewing angle.
Think twice before buying an ED set.
HD-ready sets. Also called HDTV monitors, these sets can display standard-definition programs (which still account for most non-prime-time
TV broadcasts) on their own. To display digital programs, they require a digital tuner to decode those broadcasts.
