- Samsung HL-T5687S
- The Samsung HL-T5687S and its 2007 line-mates represent the least-expensive of the company's LED-powered DLP HDTVs. When we reviewed the HL-S5679W last year, the company's first effort at putting an LED light source in a rear-projection TV, we lauded its lack of rainbow effect but noted its uneven screen uniformity....

- Mitsubishi WD-65831
- Big-screen rear-projection HDTVs are inexorably giving up ground to flat-panel models, and thanks to plasma and flat LCD price erosion, that process is happening more quickly than ever.
