Sony KDL-26L5000 – Good picture quality

 

Sony KDL-26L5000 is a bit expensive than other panels in this price range but it is justified by the sleek looks, better remote control and menu prowess which makes it better than other panels in this class. Picture is as expected, there are a few...

Good deep black reproduction ; Good collection of energy saving and picture control options ; Plenty of connectivity options with two component video inputs and three HDMI jacks ; Sleek design

Expensive ; There is green tinge in some colors ; Screen uniformity could have been better

Sony KDL-26L5000 is a bit costly but we will recommend it to you for its good picture quality.

Sony KDL-26L5000 Review – 26-inch LCD HDTV

 

Even as more and more LCD models enter the market, Sony products successfully manage to make their mark. The 26 inch Sony model may seem to be just another moderate LCD, but when its quality features and price are compared with its contemporaries, the...

With all its high quality features and affordable pricing, the KDL-26L5000 is a better option to go for than any other no-brand sets.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Very nice itty-bitty LCD TV

 

I ordered on Christmas eve when I saw the sale, so it took longer to get here than usual. In that time I saw some 26" TVs at the stores, and was very concerned it would be too small for the application (bedroom TV). Turns out I'm very pleased with the...

Very nice picture and sound. There's little to dislike about this unit, especially if you can get it at the sale price New Egg had it at when I bought one ; I have it in the bedroom hooked up to an HD Fios receiver and the picture really is stunning...

None, really, except maybe that at the regular price it is a bit expensive for a small TV. But if you want the best in a small TV, I haven't found any better

Very impressed

 

If you have a high def source like a Bluray DVD or PS3 the picture in INCREDIBLE. I have an SD cable box and must immediately upgrade to HD. Can't wait for that. Overall, three words. BUY THIS TV. You won't be disappointed.

Picture is incredible on my PS3

Not all stations broadcastin HD

Bravia is an absolute must for PS3 owners

 

I brought my PS3 Slim to afghanistan and didn't have a good tv to hook it up to. The PX out here didn't have anything so I went online in search of a screen, I have a PS3, why not a Sony TV? The TV syncs with PS3! As well as other sony products. I turn...

It works very well with PS3

the stand doesn't swivel

Great TV

 

The picture is nice and clear when connected with the right cables (not coax.). A lot of color and picture adjustments available. Perfect size for a small bedroom.

Very good picture even with SD (don't have HD yet). easy setup, great value

No cons
