    This TV will make those happy who want a big screen that is much less expensive than Full HD versions (and with colors characteristic of this brand). Problems related to rescaling makes us think Sony was forced to make concessions on some of its components. The result? A big screen that doesn't have any real strengths in HD or SD. Read more

    • Good size/price ratio, Little video noise (after adjustment in Custom mode)
    • Persistent rescaling problem in HD 1080 lines, Colors by Bravia (not too great in color fidelity), Overscan due to an absence of a PC mode

    But ultimately these niggles don't appear nearly frequently enough to seriously tarnish what's overall one of the finest 46in LCD TVs in the business. Read more

    • Superb picture quality, Improved connections, Very good value
    • Minor flaws in HD pictures

    Almost perfect. It is used as a HD TV, DVD viewer, PC monitor with wireless desktop, and for radio listening. In these regards the imaging is beautifully crisp and bright, no trouble with blacks or motion. The manual says it's 1080p, but 1080i (so far) seems hard to beat. Good sound. Menu and tv/video changes are quick, easy, and logical. Excellent as a PC monitor. It's nice to have two HDMI inputs, one for cable, one for DVD player. Read more

    • Attractive Design, Bright Image, Fast Setup, Good Connection Options, Good pc monitor, Good Resolution, Reduced Glare
    • Power saver hard to acces, Topbottom picture cutoff
  3. Great TV

    I have had this TV for about a year now and I paid nearly twice the current price but, believe me, it has been worth it. I currently have an HD cable service to view movies in full 1080 and the resolution is mind blowing. Sometimes you just want to touch and grab the objects from the TV because they look like they are about to jump out of the TV. Expertise: Average Problems Encountered: None so far. Read more

    I've had this set for 3 months now and love it. The picture is great on HD channels and I've looked hard for "clouds" but couldn't find any. Had a Vizio 46" LCD and its sound quality was better, probably because of the sub-woofer , but its picture quality was no comparison to the SONY's so I returned it. The detail on HD shows makes you feel as if you're right there. HD broadcast quality seems to vary and I've gotten spoiled by the better broadcasts. Read more

    • Enough inputs/outputs , HDMI connects to Cable box
    • Sound quality
