Hitachi has the brand reputation but LG has the value for money pack and Philips has the maximum warranty. But Philips has a huge price tag and also its uses an LCD technology which brings down the contrast ratio. At the same time Hitachi is the most resonabled priced, but LG wins the merinews pick of the week as it is the most compact, light weight, good sound quality and reasonable price tag.
