    User Ratings and Reviews

    4 Stars 6 Months Later
    Got mine a bit over 6 months ago

    Still totally impressed

    The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of the non hd display

    When viewing off air std def, the picture is not very good at all

    Far more smeary picture than my Sony 27″ tube regular tv

    I usually watch the non hd locals thru Dish as the composite input from that box looks better

    Still lower quality than I wanted (as good as my old std def tube)

    The HD display is fabulous

    Audio is better than adequate

    If I had it to do over I would

    It arrived before the estimated time

    Don’t go by the tracking site

    When they called to deliver, tracking said it was still in Ohio or Indiana - somewhere along ways away

    Shippers get 5 stars

    Go for it, you will like it once the pain of the price has worn off.

    5 Stars Outstanding - Plus a REAL Surprise!!!
    This set is outstanding and is well worth the extra price over competitive brands.

    I got a real surprise when I hooked it up to standard cable. It was able to find over 90 digital channels carrying local channels 480i SD and their 1080i HD signals plus all the music channels. I was not planning on getting HD boxes until I saw how the analog stuff looked. Since all the locals are there already I think i will wait for a bit. I’m on Time Warner in the Dallas market.

    5 Stars sony bravia
    This is the second HDTV I have now and the picture is wonderful. It was easy to hook up and the remore is easy to use also.

    5 Stars Bravo for the Bravia
    TV is as expected. I like being able to use the HDMI hookup with the DVD player. I can’t wait to get a Wii hooked up to the TV for game playing. The directions for set-up of the TV are relatively easy to understand.

    4 Stars expensive, but it delivers.
    This may be too soon to fully evaluate the performance of this TV, but up to this point I have nothing to regret. It was remarkably easy to install. The picture and sound are everything I wanted and expected. All that is left to evaluate is the durability. If that is adequate than I would have given it five rather than four stars….except for the price. I could have had a 1080pi with a beautiful picture for less money, but I am counting on the Sony reputation for quality..Possibly foolish.
