Once again, coming up to that time of the year at work where I can claim a Level 8 prize & the choices are:


Samsung LE46M87BDX/XEU LCD HD ready digital TV 46”

Sharp LC46XD1E LCD HD ready digital TV 46”

Sony KDL40X2000U LCD HD ready 40”

Philips 42PF9831D 42” LCD HD ready


Please advise which one I should go for and what the pro's & con's are about each one?

Apparently, you "must have glass stands when you buy any flat panel TV" is this true?

I'd recommend Samsung too. I've got a 32" Samsung TV and a 22" Samsung PC monitor. Both are fantastic

I have the 46" M87, it's nice. Spent a long time looking at reviews and online comparisons etc.. We got the black glass stand 1/2 price from Dixons when purchased with the TV. Paid over £100 more than it is now in June. So it's a good price also.

Samsung whores

I went for a Samsung F71 at the beginning of the year. The only option was the Sony X series, but I couldn't justify the money for nothing much except looks.

Don't think "you must have a glass stand". Get a cabinet that fits in with your decor, rather than something that looks completely odd. The "long and low" style cabinets get my thumbs up:
