Design ; build quality ; level of options ; fantastic picture quality with HD

Non-swivel stand ; standard-def picture not exactly stunning

Sony's top telly delivers absolutely stunning picture quality with hi-def sources like Sky HD, but don't expect it to magically turn Bargain Hunt into TV gold. Sound quality is good, too -- and the design and build are first class. Not cheap, ...

An older screen that was one of the best we'd seen, but with a price premium that was too much for us €" haggle hard

Superlative picture performance. Covetable looks and reassuring build. Decent sound

Costs too much compared to rivals in its class

It's a similarly agreeable story when displaying 1080p images. The Sony summons heroic levels of low-light detail, grips motion tenaciously and draws edges with a steady hand. Textures and skin tones are revealed in their entirety, while the ...

If money is no object and your living room can take a 46in set, this Sony is one of the strongest contenders for your cash

Superlative picture performance. Covetable looks and reassuring build. Decent sound

Costs too much compared to rivals in its class

Say hello to Sony's not-so-little, HD-ready friend!

Excellent picture with HD sources; Solid build quality; Fully 1080p compatible

Not so great with SD video

A fantastic display with "true HD" compatibility. It's top of the class!

Picture performance maintains high standards

Great design, Impressive connectivity, Fantastic picture performance

It's a little bit pricey for most pockets

Sony has crammed 46-inch of big-screen brilliance into this shiny model of how today's TVs can look and perform. A tad pricey at £4,000 but one to shortlist

This model is distinguishable from its cheaper siblings by its combination of a Full HD native pixel count and Sony's current top level of image processing known as Bravia Engine Ex

Superb pictures and features list

A bit expensive, slight motion blur

With the pocket depth and picture source to do it justice, this LCD leviathan is to die for

Sony's X-Series Bravia screens represent the pinnacle of its flatscreen LCD aspirations. Does this 46-inch debut live up to the hype?

Lush design ; great pictures ; great connectivity

Slight motion smearing ; not confident with SD sources

Attractive design, Wide range of inputs, Excellent PC performance

Below average performance in 1080p, Average performance in High Definition, poor performance in Standard Definition

Good looks, good audio and excellent connection options do not make up for the below average image quality, especially at this price point.
