Price: $3,600 At A Glance: Superb resolution • Precise color • Bright, ghost-free 3D • Non-uniform screen lighting Thin, Dark, and Handsome Thin was in last year, and the trend continues without an end in sight. Manufacturers aren’t likely to quit the race until they have HDTVs you can use for wallpaper. This new Samsung doesn’t quite fit the wallpaper description, but at 1.2 inches thick, it will do until the next big breakthrough comes along.

This TV preserves Samsung's reputation for state-of-the-art technology in a full-featured, 1080p 46-inch set, but it does cost more than some very strong rivals.

Review: Samsung UN55D8000 3D LCD HDTV

While 3D movies haven’t totally taken over the multiplex, the format remains a force to be reckoned with. Michael Bay just released a new Transformers installment in 3D (Transformers: Dark of the Moon), James Cameron is at work on Avatar sequels, and the entire Star Wars saga is being formatted for 3D release. Even German auteur Werner Herzog jumped on the bandwagon with Cave of Forgotten Dreams, a 3D documentary.
