Top Ten Mid-Range (£750 - £1250) Plasma TV's

Our selection of mid-range Plasma TV's reflect what you would typically pay on-line rather than the manufacturers recommended retail price.

The Plasma TV's below represent what we at HDTVorg consider to be the best combination of Standard and High Definition performance.

The choice of TV is a very subjective and personal choice and before you buy, we strongly recommend that you compare as many Plasma TV's alongside each other with SD and HD material on screen as you can. Any retailer worth their salt will go out of their way to help.
