Brilliant quality of picture, with a decent HDMI it's really worth owning simply because it feels as if you are really right there - Sony have done made it very nicely, it runs well and the picture does not blur or fade at any time like my old LG used to. Furthermore the responsiveness of the picture means that crispness and brilliant movement are the forte of this machine. The menus are easy enough to navigate but i sometimes felt as if they were a little basic and far too slow. The remote provided looks a little dated and the buttons are arranged a little badly, not only that but sometimes it takes so long to respond that you press the button again and it ...

I've had this TV for about 6 months now and have found from the outset that the picture quality has been very clear especially when watching a blu-ray or HD channels. When watching sports or fast action the tv seems to handle it very well without blurring or a jumpy picture. The Internet connectivity is fairly easy to set up by simply plugging a ethernet cable straight into the back of the tv from your wireless box or via a dongle which you can buy from sony. The Internet features are pretty new with updates being made frequently. These include tv on-demand from five, bbciplayer and several other internet channels include youtube and various other sport or ... Read the complete review

Considering I am one of the late adopters when it concerns HD, I waited with baited breath for the TV to initialise when I first set it up to my Humax Freesat box. I was not disappointed! The image quality compared to my old JVC CRT set was a quantum leap away and this was with the default settings! The jump to 40 inches from less than 28 inches was major shock, very much like the mass migration to widescreen sets some 10 years ago now. Setting up the set was very intuitive and allowed for a great deal of customisation, for example the ethernet port on the back of the TV that allows for internet based services was a shock in how easy it was to set up. If I ... Read the complete review

This was my first entry into the world of flat screen TVs. I took alot of time on deciding which one to go for and I have to say I have not regretted it one bit! I have had this for around 6 months now and have found the picture to always be sharp, the sound is fine and the list of features is amazing! The TV was really easy to unpack and add the stand to. It took me around 5 minutes with 2 small children running around under my feet (more on them later!). The initial setup was easy. I have not changed anything about the picture or sound as I tested it for a while and did not feel I needed to. I have not used the built in Freeview or Freeview HD as I cannot ...
