Stellar Performance. Easy to set-up, user friendly, great picture for the price. Best big screen TV that you can buy for less than $1000.

Great picture and attractive design, lightweight. Smart TV with several internet Apps pre-installed. Remote control with integrated keyboard. No doubts that VIZIO delivers the best value for the money for 60-Inch flat panel TV.

This is the best deal 60 inch TV of 2013, VIZIO E601i delivers razor sharp images and very good performance in light room conditions.

The Good
Fantastic picture quality
Amazing value for money
3D Capable
Smart TV
Built-in Wi-Fi
Completely future proof
 
The Bad
3D glasses not included
Slight glare in very bright rooms
This is one of the highest rated 60 inch TVs of 2012 and it is crazy how much value for money it offers. It comes with all the latest features, such as 3D capability, built-in WiFi and Smart TV, and it is only $1250. Most TVs at this price point do not offer any of these features.

Whilst it offers a lot of features, it also has the quality to back it up too. The picture quality is as impressive as models twice the price, LG’s Smart TV has tonnes of services and apps, and the 3D quality is impressive too, though it doesn’t come with any 3D glasses.

LG 60PA6500 60-Inch TV (Full HD 1080p Flat 600Hz Plasma)

Gorgeous Picture. The contrast is superb. No motion blurring or anything of the sort. Thin Frame. Right Price. Friendly remote. Intuitive on-screen menu.

  RECOMMENDED
Fantastic Picture Quality, Incredibly Low Price – The Perfect Budget HD TV. Missing smart TV features and Wi-Fi connectivity. You won't miss it though if you have PS3 or other electronics with online features built in.

The Good
Very low price (around $1000)
Awesome picture quality
Incredibly thin (1 inch thick)
Good sound for a slim HD TV
HDMI/USB ports on the side not the back
 
The Bad
Not 3D ready
No Internet TV
LG’s 60PA6500 was one of the first 60 inch TVs from a major brand to be sold for around $1000, which is only good for US buyers. Unlike the LG model above, this does not come with any major extra features such as 3D functionality or Smart TV, it is very minimalist.

The picture quality is as good as any 60 inch TV currently on the market, making this the perfect television for anyone who just wants to watch TV, without having to pay for extra features they’ll never use. The screen is also under 1 inch thick, yes you read that right, 1 inch thick!

Samsung PN60E550 60-Inch TV (Full HD 1080p Flat 600Hz Plasma Smart TV)

This TV packs a ton of features in for the price. A great TV for the money. A High Class TV for the great price. Picture quality is excellent.

  RECOMMENDED
With 3D capability and built-in Wi-Fi, the Samsung PN60E550 is a fantastic option as a mid-range sixty inch TV that is also future proofed. The TV provides many options to adjust the picture to fit your taste.

Samsung PN60E550 is the most expensive of our value-for-money 60 inch TVs, it comes with 3D capability, it has built-in Wi-Fi and it has Samsung’s Smart TV, so whilst it is more expensive than the model above, it does come with sought after extras.

Whilst the picture quality is fantastic and Samsung’s Smart TV is incredibly useful, the 3D performance is below average and there is noticeable cross talk / ghosting. If you want a cheap Samsung then you could overlook this, but the LG 60PM6700 featured above is an all around better option.
