Samsung LA46F81BDX - 46-inch LCD
It's almost a year since the Korean company introduced its M8 integrated digital TV or iDTV in Asia market, and it's still the only one of its kind so far until now. Replacing it is the latest F8-series, a stepped-up model combining the stylish shell of its premium F9 LED-driven TV with all the familiar features of the original iDTV plus Motion Plus function. The latter is its first and much-belated attempt at the highly sought-after 100Hz motion enhancements.

Pros: Razor-sharp and clean HD visuals; bassy and crisp audio; three HDMI 1.3 inputs; unofficial 1080p24 support; inbuilt HD TV tuner; sleek and stylish design.

Cons: Unnatural motion for film-based content; single TV aerial input for both analog and digital broadcasts; visible backlight leakage from the rear. The bottom line: The stylish and feature-packed Samsung LA46F81BDX has all the potential of a brilliant HDTV but is let down by a broken 100Hz motion reproduction.
