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……..

ABT was amazing. The price was beyond wonderful. I was able to get a 46″ TV (and a Sony!) for the price of what other were asking for a 42″. And QUICK delivery – even with the 4th of July holiday involved. I was moving into a new apartment and was concerned about when the TV would arrive. I called their customer service department and talked with the friendliest, most helpful person ever, who assured me that the driver would call me to set up a delivery time – there would be no surprises, no need to worry about a TV being delivered to an empty apartment, or worse an apartment with the previous tenant still there. Indeed, the driver called and told me he was on his way, arrived 15 minutes later and carried my TV into my apartment. Overall, this was the perfect transaction. I literally could not have asked for better price or service. Thank you!

I bought this TV from Amazon to replace my two year old Samsung, whose power supply failed for the second time. The price for the TV plus the three year extended warranty was less than Costco sells just the TV for. My Samsung (LNT4661) had a matte finish screen and the matte screen on this Sony is a bit shinier than the Samsung’s. If your viewing room is near bright windows, you will likely see a subdued reflection on the screen, but nothing like the gloss-screen Sonys we saw a couple of years ago. The first thing I noticed during setup was that the Sony is 10 lbs. lighter than my old Samsung. The second thing I noticed was that while there are a ton of HDMI connectors, the Sony is a bit short on S-Video and composite video connectors. I ended up having to use the side connectors you’d usually save for a videocam, etc. The position of the connections is excellent – they’re placed on the rear panel near the left corner, so you don’t have to crawl behind the set to hook things up. A major shortcoming of the set is the lack of a rotatable base as the Samsungs have. We overcame that one by placing an old kitchen-table placemat under the base and we can now easily turn the set when necessary by just sliding in on the placemat.
The HD picture with over-the-air stations is superb as was the Samsung. A big surprise was the SD picture from our DirecTV receiver which is noticeably better on the Sony than the Samsung. Setup was simple, but not quick as the firmware still scans through the analog channels when looking for signals. The scanning operation took maybe 15 minutes in all. Switching between channels is slower than the Samsung, but switching between inputs is much faster. Menus are better organized and easier to use.
The feature that sets the backlight brilliance based on ambient light works fine, but when watching a football game at night we usually want the brilliance turned up a bit compared to our preference while watching a regular program. Changing the backlight level is not difficult, but it would have been nice to have a single button on the remote for that function as the Samsung had.
I can’t say enough good things about Amazon’s shipping (and FREE at that!). I know that many have had problems with the Eagle or CEVA shipping, but I suspect that problem is highly localized. The tracking info provided at the Amazon site was accurate and we received a phone call from the delivery man early in the morning saying he’d be here the same afternoon (and that was a day earlier than the estimate). He showed up in the middle of the time period given, and was quite a pleasant fellow. While they’re not responsible for helping get the set in place, I asked if he’d help me remove it from the box so I could check out the screen for any damage. Since he had already pulled it out of the box for that, he happily helped me set it in place on the base. This is my third TV purchase from Amazon over the past 8 years or so and can’t imagine why I’d ever buy one anywhere else in the future.

I bought this tv to replace another sony HD TV that was the picture tube kind and weighed a ton. The tv’s picture is very good and their cinemotion feature has a more natural movement to it than the Samsung TV’s that I saw. My friend has a Samsund LCD and I think that feature on theirs is horrible,with that being said those TV’s also have a great picture. The one negative about this tv and several others is the ports on the side. There is no way to hide the cables so you cant see them and that drive me crazy. I would reccomend this TV to anyone looking for great a picture and lots of connection options.

Even though the TV’s box has a big “Dolby Digital” logo, and marketing specification claim DD, this TV cannot output DD 5.1 audio when using its ATSC or QAM tuner. I don’t know how Sony can get away with this, promising something but not delivering it.
Other than this flaw, the picture quality is great, so I give 3 stars.
