The two brand names I trust right now are Samsung and Vizio (not sure whats available in Australia)

My current TV is a 50' Samsung, and I know a lot of people who have Vizio's (lower cost, but seemingly just as good)

Vizio? I bought their M series. Was really trying to buy local and really wanted to like it but had to return it. No proper apps. Just widgets. Remote didnt work properly at all. Massive amoung of blobby flashlighting on screen. the E series is a good deal for a cheap TV, but high end vizios, for me, ended in disaster.
