Got this TV first class delivered, brilliant service by amazon. Thought I would wait a little longer and spend the extra money on this TV, due to the Bravia Engine 3 technology, and i can say it was definately worth it. I have a ps3 connect via HDMI and they both work great together, TV has same GUI as ps3 and picture quality is sublime! I was going to buy a samsung but im glad i bought this, It has a great finish and slim compared to other full hd tv’s. . totally recommended!

This tv is a truly magnificent piece of equipment. The picture is crisp even on lower resolution inputs such as the integrated freeview. When playing through a HD input with a 5. 1 surround sound system it gets even better. A whole new experience. The new range of bravia are a lot more sleek than previous versions, looking great with the shiny but contemporary finished effect. The only downside that it attracts the dust, but reminds you to keep your product well maintained. The Screen quality is great with none of this shiny screen nonsense to make it look quality i. e Samsung, the colour is just sublime. Top end product that will not dissapoint, but at a top end price. The price is the only downfall to me on this product.

Sony Bravia review
I have been very impressed with the quality of my new Sony Bravia. The picture quality is excellent, the features are comprehensive and I will use them for music especially.

I bought this to replace my 3 year old non-HD Sony 23 inch LCD TV. The clarity of the picture is superb – colours balanced with no motion blurring that I have noticed. Watching the “Sarah Connor Chronicles” on Virgin 1 via Freeview, the picture is touching the cinematic with the light and hues well reproduced. Seeing “Revenge of the Sith” on DVD was like watching a new movie again. I could see the intricate patterns and textures on characters’ clothing, and the opening battle is given full justice. All this without even trying HD sources (which I do not yet own). This is a huge improvement on my old Sony which suffered from blurring when showing fast moving objects. The set is future proof (for now) with all the connections you need, including a PC input and new networking standard for devices, called DLNA . Though there is a USB socket for showing your photos and video on the TV, only Sony cameras and camcorders are compatible, so I can’t hook up my iPod or a USB memory device (except Sony Microvault). Other features include a low energy mode, extensive ways to adjust the picture and sound, a swivel stand, a Top-Up TV slot and a photo frame function. The on-screen menu is the best I have seen and easy to use. Personally, the styling is disappointing by Sony standards and it looks very different in real life from the photos. Overall the design is low key rather than striking. The remote control, considering this is a mid-range model, is light and flimsy. As the case with flat screen TVs, the sound is generally only acceptable. Overall, this is an excellent Sony TV with the latest Sony Bravia 3 engine.

Excellent picture
Easy to set up and excellent picture. Stunning pictures if used with Blue Ray Player. Disappointed it didnt connect with my ipod to download pictures.

Very Satisfied
We’ve had this set about a month now and are very pleased with it. Setting it up was done in about 20 minutes. The picture quality is excellent.

Beware of faulty components
I bought the previous model in this range back in 2007 and the panel failed after just 20 months, so I’d be very wary of buying Sony again.

Great buy, Great price
Amazon’s price takes some beating when you consider the speed of delivery and reassurance that you are dealing with a well know company.

Can’t fault this product – it has revolutionised our viewing. The picture is sharp and the colours very natural, especially in HD.
