Sony Bravia KDL-46NX703

It's the first mainstream edge LED-lit LCD TV we've seen from Sony, so what do we think?

With its catwalk looks, outstanding pictures and exemplary multimedia talents, the 46NX703 is definitely one of Sony's finest hours. Even so, we briefly toyed with not giving it a Recommended award on account of its rather steep £1,700 price. But then...

Sony KDL-40NX703 review

Wireless is nice, but the picture performance can be bettered

Built-in wireless works well ; slick menu system ; detailed pictures ; good movement

Not the final word in subtlety

Wireless is nice, but the picture performance can be bettered for the money

Sony NX700

NX700 and NX800 are the new designer ranges from Sony with an unique aluminum stand. We will look at the NX700 model that is similar to NX800 besides the 200 Hz circuit (100 Hz on NX700). NX700 still features the Internet TV service as well as the Edge...

Good 100 Hz circuit; Internet features and functionality; Materials; Fair blacks; Bravia engine scaling abilities; Inputs/output facing to the side; No clouding

Colours not perfect; Shadow details; A lot of reflections; Sound; Response time not perfect

Sony NX700 is a very elegant TV and the new monolithic design is a fresh breath of air from Sony. The choice of materials is well-chosen. But what is the NX700 really?

Sony Bravia KDL40NX700

With the Sony NX700 LCD television, the company has shown it's able to boil its best design and performance ideas down into what is arguably its finest Bravia yet.

Incredibly vivid, detailed images. One of the best feature sets available. Great with all video sources. Easy to use. IPTV services will grow to include catch-up from most major stations.

Some backlight clouding. Reflective. Stand is extra. Widgets are mostly perfunctory.

Sony KDL-40NX700 LED LCD HDTV Review - Intro

The Sony KDL-40NX700 ($1699) is a slender TV that has enough bells and whistles to grab your attention, but it may have a hard time justifying its price premium over the Sony EX series. The NX700 features built-in WiFi, but both TVs offer excellent...

The Sony KDL-40NX700 is a strong performer, and undoubtedly attractive. It's loaded with features that fatten up the spec sheet, and some of them are actually useful. The streaming video package of features is truly excellent, and it hands-down the...

Sony Bravia NX700 40-inch Panel TV

This year, manufacturers have rushed to include an extra dimension in their products, with 3D TV supposedly storming living rooms in time for the World Cup (though not in New Zealand). But 3D's not the only innovation televisual boffins have...
