Great TV. Buy with confidence.
I bought this TV to replace a Samsung LE32R88BD. Overall, it is a fantastic TV. I thought it would be useful to address some of the negative comments regarding this model that I came across when I was researching the various TVs within my budget.Faulty components - One reviewer stated that the LCD panel developed a fault after 20 months. This particular model comes with a free 3-year guarantee from Sony. It is possible to get a 5-year guarantee from several high street stores at the ...

A couple of points to be aware of.....
As a lot of other people have stated in other reviews, this is a great TV. I use it with a PS3, Sky HD and Samsung HDMI DVD player and all sources give a great, non motion-blurred picture. The XMB interface is great and the network stuff is quite cool, if a little pointless.One gripe I do have though is that there is no way whatsoever to switch to 4:3 pillarbox on the HDMI inputs. Apparently Sony bypassed a lot of the picture processing electronics for HDMI signals to give as 'pure' ...

Great all round TV
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 just...

Flawed Diamond
I ordered one of these TVs in December to go with the imminent delivery of Sky+ HD having read several reviews both on line and in magazines - this is a What Hi-Fi home Cinema 5 start TV so I thought it should be good. And it is, kind of. The TV itself looks great and is well built. The picture was great after a fit of fiddling about.You see the Eco energy saving settings and the light sensor always want to dim the TV to save energy, this to me always meant the picture was too dark, ...

Brilliant
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!

Great TV
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 ...

Sony Bravia KDL32V5500U 32-inch
I am no techy so will attempt no high level comparisons at a technical level.This is just a superb TV that does everything I wanted and expected the Sony badge to supply. So easy to use and set up, and coordinates with my Bravia HDD recorder.Probably has more features than I really needed but hey...what holds a lot holds a little!Great product, crammed with all the features you will need to enjoy your TV watching experience for many years to come.

Sony Bravia TV
I am very pleased with my Sony Bravia TV. It's the 2nd. one I have bought and it's perfect. The colours are excellent and the HD connection makes it seem as if you are in the same room as the stars. I had my first set about 5 years ago and it hasn't worn out. I gave it to my daughter and bought a new one. I think it has the best picture. I rate it9 out of 10.

Staggering Sony!!!!!
I have my Sony for just over a week and I have to say that my expectations which were already high,have been surpassed.Initial set up a complete doddle,just push a button and let the TV get on with it.Picture quality on Freeview is very good,on upscaled DVD the picture is excellent but with Blu Ray,the picture is simply staggering.I am awaiting a Sky HD Box but the picture quality with plain boring Sky is excellent.Connectivity is more than you could ask for,the set looks good ...

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.We bought a signal booster for about £14 locally as our ITV and Channel 4digital signals through our aerial were a little low, and that saved us changing to a digital aerial.The sound quality is much better than our old TV. We need to dust the "piano black" casing more often because otherwise it shows the dust; we use anti-static ...
