The Bottom Line The Vizio E601i-A3 is the best value yet among big-screen LED TVs. The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever. The Sharp LE650 series sets the big-screen LCD TV value bar high with very good picture quality for the price. With good picture quality and great pricing, the Sharp LC-LE640U series makes a strong case for mainstream TV shoppers who want to go bigger. The midlevel price and outstanding quality of the Panasonic TC-PST60 series make it our strongest TV recommendation ever.
