What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
I have to say that i am a sony guy when it comes to tvs. For the price this television is well worth it.
Inch is a super real looking 42 inch is more satisfying than the larger one we replaced downstairs. Works seamlessly with my sony bluray player, as did the last one, but there's no more switching between inputs. The key is all work now with thecast re... Read More
Sound is excellent, esp on surround option which is lush. Will not have to buy a soundbar.
This one exudes a bit more of the old-school sony quality. The bravia series is top notch in the industry. Lovin' me this sony bravia.
Cons
I'm confident the tv will soon be unusable.
Highlights
Quality
Sony quality, fantastic picture, full features, great price.
Picture quality is very good and build quality is solid.
Like most of the newer flat screens it needs audio help, such as a quality soundbar, etc.
To test out the quality of the picture, i popped in the official test - lord of the rings on blu-ray.
Price
It has a great picture and the price is definitely right.
The price is outstanding for this kind of quality.

Got it fast and the its was packed well.
After a few quick tests which i performed as we spoke, they offered free shipping to return the tv, in home service, or an exchange.
Packaging/appearance
Honestly, i couldn't give a crap less, since i'm still stuck in the blu-ray era (i'm a college girl, but with an old lady mentality.
Competitiveness
Not only that, we paired it with a sony blu-ray player and we get access to everything.
I listened to a sony 260 soundbar and it rocks pretty good for a $270 dollar unit.
Bought a sony blu-ray system and it all works perfect together.
The speakers are not great, but i hooked mine up to my sony's stereo speakers and it now sounds amazing.
