Looking for new HDTV, 46" - 60". Reccomendations?

I am planning to buy a new TV this week maybe and have a few options lined up for my shorlist. I don't want anything smaller than 46 inches and nothing bigger than 60 inches. My budget is £1000.

SONY BRAVIA KDL46HX753

LG 47LM660T

SAMSUNG UE50ES6300UXXU

PANASONIC TX-P50UT50B

SHARP AQUOS LC60LE636E

Which of these TV's would you reccommend to buy?

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. I am leaning toward the LG, Sony or Sharp myself. I've seen all of these TV's myself except the LG (I actually work in Comet) so have an idea of their quality, but just want some other opinions before I go out with my wife and make a decision.

My views...

The Panasonic looks great, is a nice size, and is very smooth but I am wary of Plasma with being a gamer (Xbox 360). 

I am not entirely convinced with Samsung gear at the moment at their lower end (I consider anything £1500 and under low end for Samsung, lol). 

I like the look of the LG and it has alot of useful features but it is the only TV I haven't ha d a chance to view yet (I intend to view it tomorrow). My current TV is LG and it has lasted well and looks good.

I like the Sony because I have a Sony Blu Ray player and a Sony AV Reciever also so would go nice for Bravia Sync. I also think it looks nice.

I think the Sharp looks great for a 60 inch, and is quite smooth, but have a niggling doubt about it, though I just cannot place what or why. I think mainly because of the contrast.

It is common for Best Buy and other stores to hook up one TV by HDMI and use Component for another when trying to meet a sales quota for a particular item. Another trick they use is calibrating one TV to look perfect and uncalibrating the one next to it.

Don't worry, I am well aware of this tactic. I intend to just use my USB with some preloaded 1080p movies on it (Avengers for defnite, lol) for my own comparisons rather than use store utilities. Either that or my Xbox 360 slim with my own HDMI cable.

I am very tempted by the 60 inch but if I go for that I'll need a wall mount because it will be too big for my stand. It will fit on the wall though with some space to spare.

Also as a note, I have Smart features on my Blu Ray player, but never really use them. I see that sort of stuff as a gimmick really as I'll just use my iPhone for stuff like that if I'm honest. 3D isn't a dealbreaker either. I like the LG for it's full splitscreen via glasses feature though.
