Style versus substance—it's an age-old debate, though not always such a difficult one to settle. Case in point: the Sony XBR series. In the style corner is the XBR4, which lets you pick from eight different trim colors, including blue, white, and, yes, "Rose Metallic." The XBR5, meanwhile, comes in black and has a longer warranty. Translation: Go with the 5. In addition to a lack of gimmicky color options, the XBR5 offers amazingly vivid picture quality, upconversion for non-1080p signals, and the company's proprietary Motionflow 120Hz frame rate, which reduces blur and eye strain—no small consideration for the serious couch potato—er, TV enthusiast.
