I just purchased this TV here on AMAZON a few days ago for $859.00 with free super saver shipping
without using the Amazon Prime 2 day shipping.(I never subscribed to it)
This TV was purchased Monday 6pm and it arrived Wednesday morning before noon VIA UPS.(Wow)
As far as the picture quality of this TV set it cannot be beat regardless of the price.
I have been shopping for a 46 inch LED TV for about a month at local retail stores only
to find that basically the main or only differences between this TV and that of the
higher priced makes and models of other 46 inch TV's has very little or nothing to do
with the overall actual picture quality but has a lot more to do with the amount of
additional features and options these smart tv's have and are available on the higher
priced makes and models of the same size.
The picture quality on this HD TV is so life like and so sharp and clear that I can
clearly see even the smallest details like a person's eyelashes, eyebrows and even
the eyeballs.
The internal audio output quality using the built-in speakers is what I would call average,
so if you are the type of person who wants theater quality audio you will need to
use an external audio amplifier and external speakers.
All the internet features and options work excellent and really look professional
just like you would see on your home computer'a monitor.
The only drawback with the internet is that you will need to find a compatible
wireless USB keyboard to use unless the remote's up/down/left/right buttons are
good enough for you while surfing the web.
The built-in Wi-Fi is so super easy to setup that it's almost automatic.
This TV has so many settings and adjustments for the picture that even if you are
very particular and a perfectionist you will have more than enough controls to get
the exact picture you want.
The "picture & picture" feature is really excellent, to use it you will need a secondary
video source like the RF 75 ohm output of your cable box or a TV antenna so that both
the TV's built-in tuner and the cable box's tuner are both connected to the TV.
Even without an HD cable or satellite box this TV has fantastic digital picture quality
and it receives many OTA (over the air) HD channels using an antenna, cable box or Tivo.
The only fault I see in this TV set is when I connect an external USB hard drive or a
USB flash-drive which contains lots of videos and or movies.
The TV plays basically all the video formats like DIVX/AVI/MPG and all other formats
really well but the user interface when using this feature leaves a lot to be desired.
It is an all black screen with tiny file and folder icons which have no graphics or text
so you cannot see the titles/names of the movies or videos contained on the USB hard
drive or the USB Flash drive.
It looks like the media player feature in this TV is something which is not fully
finished yet but something which needs to be worked on and finished by Sony with a
firmware or software upgrade.
Perhaps one of these days Sony will have a newer firmware or software version so
after upgrading the built-in media player it will have all the missing/lacking features.
I have a Western Digital USB TV Live media player which I use for my movies and it works
and looks excellent and it has all the missing features which this TV's built-in media
player is is lacking.
Another good choice for an external usb media player is the Sony SMP-N100 media player.
The remote control which comes with this TV is really excellent unless you have
additional components attached to the TV set. If so, you will need to buy an all
in one type remote. (preferably a Logitech Harmony One).
All in all I gave this TV 5 Stars due to it's truly amazing picture quality and all
the excellent features and options it has.
