Sony Bravia KDL-EX523 review: Sony Bravia KDL-EX523

Just as it was at the height of the cathode-ray television's popularity, the sub-$1,000 mark is a sweet spot for flat-panel TV purchasing today. Back then Panasonic and Sony were much more popular than LG or Samsung, but things have changed.

The Sony KDL-EX523 series is relatively inexpensive for an LED-based LCD TV. It delivered decent black-level depth and very good video processing, including the ability to handle 1080p/24 sources. Its cinema preset provides decently accurate pictures...

The Sony television exhibits murky shadow detail and blue tinge in dark areas. Uniformity is a problem with large gray splotches across black screens.

The Sony EX523 series produces a solid though workmanlike picture at a price that competes well against similarly featured LED TVs.

Sony Bravia KDL-32EX520

If you're looking for an internet-ready, 32-inch LED-edgelit HDTV, you can't go wrong with the Sony KDL-32EX520 (MSRP $629). It has solid performance across the board and a robust — if somewhat clumsy — set of online features. If you don't need the...

The Sony KDL-32EX520 almost has it all: great contrast and color, internet connectivity and a solid complement of features. It lags in motion performance, however, and has some other minor faults. We were impressed by the Sony’s high contrast ratio,...
