Sony Bravia KDL-55HX800
By (pcmag.com)
When Sony's Bravia KDL-55HX800 ($3,399.99 list) arrived in PC Labs we couldn't wait to take a crowbar to it. (It came packed in a massive wooden shipping crate.) Once it was unpacked, however, we handled it with kid gloves. After all, this is the first...
3D-ready. Very good 3D and 2D picture quality. Attractive cabinet. Plenty of Web apps
Expensive. 3D glasses and transmitter cost extra. Some minor backlight blooming. Glasses are heavy and can become a bit uncomfortable when worn for long periods
The 55-inch LED-backlit Bravia KDL-55HX800 delivers solid 3D imagery, and an even-better 2D picture. Features are plentiful, but you'll pay dearly for this cutting-edge HDTV.
Although the HX800 series is the least expensive of Sony's family of 3D HDTVs (the LX900 and HX909 are the other two), you wouldn't know it by this 55-inch HDTV's hefty $3,400 price tag. And, by the time you add in $150 3D glasses for the family and a...

Sony KDL-46HX800 3D LED LCD HDTV Review - Intro
By David Kender (televisioninfo.com)
The Sony KDL-46HX800 ($2699 MSRP) is a 3D-ready TV. What does 3D ready mean, you ask. In short, it means you have to buy more accessories. Not just the glasses, which run $150 a pop. You also have a buy a "3D Sync Transmitter" for $50, which sits on...
The Sony KDL-46HX800 ($2699 MSRP) is a very good 2D TV that insists on milking every last dollar from your pocket to make it a 3D TV. It's incredibly frustrating. Prior to June 2010, Sony already had approximately 26 new televisions on the market, many...
That said, let's consider the relative merits of the Sony KDL-46HX800. The 2D performance was very, very good, for the most part. We noted a terrible viewing angle and a highly reflective screen. Color, contrast, black level, and motion performances,...

Review: Sony Bravia KDL-46HX800 46-Inch LCD TV

Sony's HX800 series TVs are expensive, but the picture quality and surround sound are good enough that the prices aren't outrageous.

Sony KDL-46HX800
By David Kender (washingtonpost.com)
The Sony KDL-46HX800 ($2699) is a 46-inch LED-backlit LCD television, and among the first Sony TVs to offer 3D display. Don't get too excited yet, though. The HX800 series is merely 3D-ready, which means several more purchases until you're actually...
for another $50. It's hard to fault Sony for wanting to squeeze customers for glasses - all the manufacturers are doing that. But charging for the 3D sync transmitter just feels like a shakedown, as Samsung, Panasonic, and LG have the transmitter built...

Sony KDL-HX800 Series LCD TV (40", 46", 55")
The Sony KDL-HX800 Series LCD TV is the lowest-cost option of Sony's three lines of HD compatible TVs released in 2010. The HX800 features edge LED backlighting, which provides power savings and very high contrast ratios. Contrast ratios are one of the most important factors of good pictures, and the LEDs really make a noticeable difference. This TV can connect to the internet and access a full suite of features, including content from Netflix, Yahoo Widgets, Amazon video on demand, NPR, and several other services. This is a great way to get lots of on-demand content to your TV quickly and easily, and a built-in Wi-Fi connection eliminates the need for wires. The 240 Hz refresh rate is one of the better ones on the market today, and contributes to the great picture offered by the HX800. This TV is definitely worth considering, as it is one of the cheapest and best 3D HD TVs available today.
