Hello. Recently, in the topic Samsung LE40-A656A LCD Series 6 - Good Choice ? Clare answered: 'It's a good set - original review here. It's latterly lost a star due to newer, more competitively priced/slightly better performing rivals coming along, but is still a smart choice.'

I just would like to know what are these tv's coming that you say are better.

Thank you so much Clare

If you read our current issue Supertest you'll get the full picture - as the poster above notes, the key rival is Sony's superb KDL40W4000 in the premium category, with Panasonic's awesome-value TH37PX80 below it.
