Sony KDL-60NX720

 

There's a lot to like about the KDL-NX720 series. Sony's least expensive TV with that lovely Monolithic styling, it still costs a mint but will reward investors with some of the best 2D images we've seen on any LCD with an edge-lit LED backlight . And...

The Sony KDL-NX720 series produces deeper black levels than any edge-lit LED-based TV we've tested. It evinces relatively accurate color, has a uniform screen for edge-lit LED, and can properly handle 1080p/24 sources. It has a beautiful, thin-profile...

The expensive KDL-NX720 shows some blooming artifacts and crushes detail in shadows, and its image deteriorates more noticeably than usual when seen from off-angle. The design of its menu and Internet services interface is lackluster, and Sony does not...

Albeit expensive and plagued by issues in 3D, the beautifully styled Sony KDL-NX720 has better picture quality than most other edge-lit LED-based LCD TVs.

Sony KDL-60NX720

 

Sony NX720 series information: The review of the 60-inch KDL60NX720 is based on our experiences with the 55-inch KDL-55NX720 set. The observations made here are applicable to the 46-inch KDL-46NX720 LED TV. According to Sony, the specifications in the...

Excellent black level and contrast ; Very bright white levels ; Slick, flat panel with darkened, anti-glare glass ; Built-in Wi-Fi, plenty of Internet apps ; Quick network media access

3D glasses not included ; Remote not backlit

We don’t wish to take anything away from the Sony's XBR line, but the fact is the NX720 is a better over-all value and that is why we’re stamping it with our Editor’s Choice award.

Exceptional Tv for the Price

 

After spending almost a year trying to rid myself of my monstrous 32" CRT and researching new sets, I settled on this one. My budget wasn't too rigid, so I considered most of the top of the line LED models from Samsung, Sony, & Panasonic. Already...

Beautiful, but flawed for the unlucky

 

I received the 55-inch NX720 at noon on January 20th. Contrast, colors, brightness and blacks were phenomenal. Then the day grew dim, and soon I began to notice the light seeping through its pores. Faint, random patches of white all over the screen,...
