The Best 3DTVs recommended by Televisioninfo.com.

Some 3D HDTVs actually kinda suck. The 3D effect can break down during fast movement and the active shutter glasses sometimes create a constant flickering effect. If you want decent 3D, check out these great sets recommended by Televisioninfo.com.

Samsung UN55C7000

Product Name: Samsung UN55C7000, Screen Size: 55 inches, Resolution: 1920 x 1080, Refresh Rate: 120 Hz, Price: $1,999.99

The Samsung UN55C7000 is a gorgeous TV with decent 3D emulation. Its 3D effect holds up pretty well under most conditions, the one exception being high contrast areas. The glasses seem to sync up with the TV better than most other sets, since there's barely any flicker while the active shutters are doing their thing.

Sony XBR-52HX909

Product Name: Sony XBR-52HX909, Screen Size: 52 inches, Resolution: 1920 x 1080, Refresh Rate: 240 Hz, Price: $3,699.99

The Sony XBR-52HX909's 3D effect is a bit inconsistent, but when it's working it's amazing. The 3D effect for background and mid-range objects is great, and the TV really only has a problem with things in the immediate foreground and the cliché "popping out of the screen" effect. The best part: even without 3D, this is a great TV. The XBR-52HX909 has great picture quality and Sony's incredible line-up of online content.


Panasonic TC-P50VT20

Product Name: Panasonic TC-P50VT20, Screen Size: 50 inches, Resolution: 1920 x 1080, Refresh Rate: 96 Hz, Price: $2,500.00

If we had to choose one manufacturer for a 3D HDTV, it'd be Panasonic. The TC-P50VT20 might be a first generation 3D HDTV, but it's still one of the best we've seen so far. The effect holds up well even in areas of high contrast or fast motion, and the active shutter glasses don't create an obnoxious flicker effect.

Like every other report, the Panasonic VT20 takes the crown. I have seen it in person and it is a great set.
