I play alot of online gaming on ps3 and this tv has the most clear picture ever! especially when i bought a HDMI cable for the ps3! I love my new tv! Most definetly recommend buying it! November 23, 2010
amaizing first of all i was lookin for light tv, high definition exellent quality and i didnt find it in any other brand except in sony bravia(EX600 Series HDTV) it has a lovely size and simple use P.S it will be amaizing for the fans of PS3 cuz am one of them even the movie's Special for the blueray movie's ;D SIMPLY..ausom September 8, 2010
Very good model I have been tested this TV both for digital television and for HD gaming and it is outstanding. I highly recommend this TV for everyone no matter what the expectations. Very slim and no radiation at all (compared to a plasma), very bright, strong and sharp colors for both day and night. Very smooth playing in movies. I am very pleased about it. August 19, 2010
Very please with purchase. Very flexible setup I was very happy to see the digital audio output from the set as I have a very nice home theater system (HTS) that has no HDMI connections. This was a very nice step up system as you can connect and control the HDMI devices through the set, and the digital output from the set can be fed back through the HTS with very little (if any) loss. The USB connection supports all of the thumb drives I tried for pictures and mp3s, but not my USB hard drive. There is a USB video playback mode, but without the hard drive supoprt and mpeg-4 support it is not very useful to me. As for the picture, it seemed a little dark at first and I tried to play with the "scene" settings to get what I was looking for, but I think it was more of an adjustment from CRT to big screen HD. I have only be able to view 780p HD as my cable and the Roku box are my only sources of HD media. I guess my next purchase will be a Blu-Ray player. As a PC display device, the digital input works the best, but requires using HDMI input 1 for input if you want sound, which means swapping cables with the cable box to avoid having to use the side inputs full time leaving cables showing. The PC input with the standard RGB cable meets my needs for most all of the uses of the computer. The remote works well and if there is anything that I would change on that, it would be to move the Menu button from below the down arrow. I have cancelled more operations the use the up/down arrows by a minor misstep of a fat thumb. But that could be me as well as I can't test very well either! August 18, 2010

1. HDMI cable required, sold separately.

2. Works with other BRAVIA® Sync or Theatre Sync™ labeled home audio/video products when connected via HDMI™ interface

3. Resolution limited to that supported by both the PC and the TV. See TV user’s manual and PC documentation for supported resolutions.

4. Dynamic contrast ratio compares the luminance of a 100 IRE (white) signal with that of a 0 IRE (black) signal. When the TV receives a 0 IRE signal the backlight is turned off and the luminance measurement is 0.00 cd/m2. The resulting dynamic contrast ratio is infinite.
