SONY and SAMSUNG make the best TVs. Sharp, Panasonic and LG are also good choices. SONY if you don't care about price because they are the best TVs. LEDLCD is going to give you good performance at a decent price, don't go plasma unless you need extra heat in your room. Regular LCDs TVs use florescent bulbs that can't be controlled as well as a LED LCD. If you want the best of the best then go OLED, you get the best picture, the best contrast ratio, vibrant colors, very thin TV and lower power and heat.
I have a 40 something cheap-o that I got a good deal on but I used to repair TVs and seeing what you wrote I would suggest a high contrast ratio because of your sensitivity to light levels. The higher the contrast ratio the more difference between the blackest black and the whitest white, it will allow you to have a better average brightness. OLED would be my suggestion if you have the money or a plasma if you can stand the heat and price because they both have outstanding contrast ratios.

Don't forget about the distance at which you sit from the TV.

1080 on anything under 30+ cracks me up because what is the point?
Not saying it isn't good, my 23 monitor is 1080 but sometimes the image is so small it is difficult to see things in the distance.

got this for my son's ps3/ps4 setup, 180.00 at best buy and 30,000,000 to 1 contrast ratio
We bought some Viewsonic LCDs at my job in industry and they were industrial rated TVs ( I don't know the difference ) and they were all broken within six months. They all had circles appear on the screen that didn't display, I have seen every type of messed up screen there is but those were the first I have ever seen that just did it over night for no apparent reason. I think moisture and vibration did it but it even happened to the monitors in the offices so I am not sure. I have never owned one so I can't speak about their regular TVs.
We just started buying Vizio to replace them and they never messed up.

Just telling you what my experience has been with them and they were expensive monitors. I have fixed 1000s of TVs and I have never met a LG that didn't work until my friend brought me one he found on the side of the road and I have seen SONY TVs work with a hole in the screen. I am not saying they are bad, I am just telling you what my dealings with them have been like. We bought about 10 around a year ago and they are all in the trash now.

Sometimes it is cheaper to by a nice monitor than a TV. SONY used to make a 40 something monitor with no speakers or tuner and only a few inputs and it was very inexpensive compared to TVs because there were less components.
