90% of the reviews on Amazon.co.uk give this product a positive rating.

Nice design ; Good HD pictures ; Decent audio

SD can be treated poorly

A solid LCD TV with some great HD pictures but it wont set the world alight

Brilliant combination of inky blacks and bright whites ; stunning detail, especially with HD ; great motion and colours

Poor backlighting ; just a smidge of noise around standard-def edges

In many ways, the ’V5500 is a most impressive set; but it’s also the most disappointing

Takes all the brilliant aspects of the KDL-52V5500 and adds even better motion...

...but also suffers from the same uneven backlight

The Sony impresses in all areas, although it’s the backlight issue that costs the set a valuable star

Sony's gigantic TV offers an enormous picture and excellent feature set, with versatile multimedia entertainment. Movies impress thoroughly in bright conditions, but fast movements blur a little, especially in sports broadcasts.

Fantastic picture and good sound. Really good in conjunction with the Blu-ray player that I bought

The elctronic programme guide is rather basic - not as good as the one on sky

Never bought Sony before alway bought Bang & Olufsen. But extremely impressed with everything about this t.v.

excellent value for money....

sound quality not so good, although it is ok in a small room... need to get an additional sound system/home cinema

Picture is very good even on standard def, it handles fast movement very well. Have no idea what the reviews are on about saying the backlight is dodgy, because I cant see any problems!

Sound could be slightly better, but thats nit picking.

Great warranty, full fitting to wall with existing bracket, full set up and connection with demo of controls, professional staff, excellent picture and looks great
