15 Jun 2009

Summary
sony bravia kdl46z5500 review: The Sony Bravia KDL46Z5500 is seemingly made for sport with an enhanced 200Hz Motionflow engine and a slimmer, less obtrusive bezel.

Pros
Excellent black levels • Detailed images • 200Hz is suited to sport • DLNA streaming onboard

Cons
DVD replay could be better • 200Hz is poor with non-broadcast sources

Sony Bravia KDL-46Z5500 (46-inch LCD)
16 Oct 2009

Summary
Sony Bravia KDL-46Z5500 - The Japanese company's latest 200Hz LCD TV offers incremental enhancements in the area of picture quality, multimedia playback and connectivity options.

Pros
Overall superb sharpness ; deep blacks and smooth motion ; smart-looking design ; 1080p AVCHD video playback ; IDTV ; backlit remote controller ; four 24p-ready HDMI inputs ; intuitive icon-based user interface

Cons
Lacks Web content streaming ; awkward Ethernet port placement ; no DivX support

Verdict
The KDL-46Z5500 may be less flamboyant than many past Sony's HDTV offerings, but its clear smoke finish and slim 30mm panel frame are refreshing changes that exude a neat minimalist appeal. To add some bling, there's also an illuminated white Sony ...

Toshiba 42X3030DB
24 Oct 2007

I researched and researched LCD and Plasma TVs and came to the conclusion that there is never going to be the perfect LCD TV so I took the plunge. The Toshiba 42X3030DB has received very good online reviews and the price of £879 (before using Quidco and any vouchers) seemed very reasonable.

Pros:

The TV looks fantastic with an understated elegance. The stand it comes with is unobtrusive and sturdy. Set-up is very easy and with the help of online sites such as www...

If you, as I do, have viewing and listening apart, this is a nice panel for both very close and small-room television.

Previous review comments about how to get rid of the green mapping have been ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! I am a 49 year old women and I followed all the advice given and took off the back off the television. All I have done is remove the flat multiway cable that joins the display board to the main board, I cleaned it with a soft cloth and re fitted it. HEY PRESTO! My television is fixed, it took about 5 minutes.
I believe this problem arose form moving house, not only the movement but we had...

Sharp LC52X20E

It's a thumbs down as a recommendation to a friend as several friends have seen this TV and said they would probably choose something else.

The 1080p animated film demo in the store was stunning but wish I had insisted on a 1:1 feed from a dedicated aerial and seen Freeview. The store blamed a joint feed for poor quality but I have found that that SD TV (images from Freeview or cable) are very disappointing due to re-scaling from 520p to 1080p.

The colours are very...
