Price Trends: 46" - 47" 1080p LCD HDTVs

46" and 47" TVs are quickly becoming the new standard for HDTV owners. Fortunately, that means an abundance of deals on these sets. On the entry-level side, both 60Hz and 120Hz displays are virtually neck and neck price-wise, so there's no reason to settle for a 60Hz set.

If you want to future-proof your TV (and who doesn't), 240Hz and LED-backlit TVs are dropping in price with deals for the past two months comfortably coming in below the $1,000 mark.

However, it's worth noting that the price drop on LED-backlit LCDs is being led by 3rd-tier vendors, particularly ProScan. A set from Vizio, Toshiba, or Sharp still sits in the sub $1,200 range. Meanwhile, 3D LCD HDTVs in this size category have taken a massive drop (all of them from Samsung), although the cheapest 3D TV is still $466 over the price of the most affordable LED TV.
