Sony KDL-40CX523

 

The Sony KDL-40CX523 might be a CCFL LCD TV at the bottom of Sony's new TV range, but its AV quality and excellent Bravia Internet Video features make it good value.

Decent picture quality for the money ; Excellent online functionality ; Improved operating system

Motion blur ; Flimsy build quality ; Shortage of shadow detail

There are things about the 40CX523 that do theirbest to irritate us - most notably its motion blur and slightly inconsistentbacklight. But overall, given its price, it’s the TV's AV strengths and,especially, its superb multimedia and online talents...

Sony KDL-40CX523 LCD TV

 

Review The Bravia KDL-40CX523 is the little net-connected TV that could. Consigned to somewhere near the bottom of Sony's 2011 line-up, and cursed with a CCFL backlight instead of trendy LED bulbs, it's clearly not one of the brand's hero products. Yet...

Affordable LCD TV with the latest Sony UI and Internet TV offerings.

Sony 32 inch flat screen TV

 

290 for a 32 inch flat screen TV is pretty much average fare these days as TVs go. Sony have always had a good name for quality and reliability - even for their mass produced products made in far eastern 3rd world countries with low labour costs. This...

I received the tv 4 days after I had ordered it. Having h d made my viewing more enjoyable and the tv itself is excellent in all respects. I am glad I purchased it.

Consumer review by:

Excellent picture quality with Freeview HD right out of the box

 

Unfortunately the terms used by some manufacturers are a little ambiguous; HD-Ready does not mean that High Definition will work right out of the box but it will work if you attach High-Definition devices to it. Sony have used the term WiFi-Ready to...
