| | Description | For consumers who want an HDTV that keeps pace with fast-action movies, sports, and game play, Sony BRAVIA V-Series Flat Panel HDTVs combine Full HD 1080p performance and Motionflow 120Hz technology for an amazing viewing experience. Motionflow 120Hz takes both high-definition and standard programming a step further by increasing sharpness and detail in fast-moving images for more fluid, natural motion. In addition, BRAVIA V-Series HDTVs use proprietary Image Blur Reduction technology to further enhance the picture for even better performance. The HDTVs also feature BRAVIA Engine 2 technology, which uses exclusive Sony algorithms to reduce visual noise and sharpen and enhance an already-striking dynamic contrast ratio. Additionally, they include seven versatile HD connections to ensure you get impressive image quality from all your HD components. Take advantage of four HDMI inputs, component and composite inputs, and a PC input, as well as a USB input that lets you play audio files from USB storage devices, or connect a compatible camera to your HDTV for a quick and easy slide show. Sony knows your home theater set-up doesn't stop with your HDTV, which is why the BRAVIA V-Series HDTVs are compatible with BRAVIA Link Modules -- including the BRAVIA Wireless Link, BRAVIA DVD Link, and BRAVIA Input Link Modules (all sold separately). The HDTVs also support BRAVIA SyncTM technology so you can control all of your compatible devices with a single remote. And all BRAVIA HDTVs exceed ENERGY STAR 3.0 requirements for in-use and stand-by power consumption, meaning you don't need a lot of power to get a lot of performance. |  |

HDTV = No Closed Captioning! Sep 03, 2010 This is a fine TV, but we were very disappointed to find out that HDTV does NOT support Closed Captioning! This was a very important feature for us and we are very disappointed! The only way to get the closed captioning back is to downgrade to standard cable service and use the old Yellow, White and Red cables. If the signal goes through an HDMI cable, no closed captioning. The picture is not quite as good, but at least the Closed Captioning works. For more info Google: HDTV Closed Captioning.
Solid matte screen. Sharp picture but has a terrible color shifting bug. Aug 07, 2010 I'll keep it short. The image is sharp. The non-glossy screen is way nicer than Samsung's. The sound is decent for a flat-panel, although still don't expect any miracles. The TV has a huge software/firmware glitch though and it really does detract from the enjoyment. There is something wrong with auto white balance control. It shifts like crazy during certain shows or scenes. Anything with a solid blue background such as Colbert report or anything Fox News makes the thing go crazy. I have the latest and greatest firmware and it does not correct the issue. Sony is aware and you can see lots of videos on YouTube and read about it. It really makes the skin tones go nuts. I've tried adjusting the ACE and other recommended solutions. It is annoying, but tolerable if you can get the TV for the right price. Like many others, I was very annoyed at the glare from the Samsung which is what drove me to go Sony. In retrospect, I wish I would have gotten the Samsung.
Audio Problems Jul 08, 2010 Within days of purchase I began having audio dropouts when changing channels. I checked the reviews here and found many others with same problem. I contacted Sony technical support for advice. Their response was that there are no known problems with this model, they do not pay attention to reviews made on other websites and they gave me a link for a fix that absolutely nothing to do with the problem I described to them.

samsung make better lcd Jun 09, 2010 i own this lcd since december 2009. the picture quality is great but i hate the audio output because it's fixed audio, not variable. i have a klipsch promedia 2.1 hooked up to it, i can't adjust the volume with the sony remote. i have to physically walk up to my speakers to change the audio. i also lost steady sound option, so the volume dynamic is pretty annoying. i am never buying sony tv again. buy samsung instead! they're tv is better in every respect.

Be Careful When Purchasing This Item Apr 30, 2010 We purchased this TV in Nov, 2009 and hooked it up using the HDMI cables. The set worked great for a few days and then starting losing the sound and picture. Assuming it was our local cable companies issue we contacted them. Five months and six cable boxes later the cable company informed us there was nothing more they could do and to contact Sony which we did. Sony immediately set up an in home service call. The repair tech called to confirm and told us they are aware of the problem and know exactly what's causing it. A BM3? board has been ordered. Why hasn't Sony contacted the consumer about the issue? In the meatime the set is hooked up to component cables, 5 cables total, just to view the TV in HD and it works fine. One of the reasons we purchased it was for the HDMI advantage and Sony's reputaion. Be very careful when purchasing this product. We are extremely dissappointed.

Consumer Reports Says: Buy HDTV at Amazon!
Washington, D.C. (July 2010) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)
The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2009 and June 2010. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its July 2010 issue.)
"Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."
Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com came closest.
