I also got a defective unit like the one posted earlier. There is lot of clouding. They sent me a replacement which was refurbished and that was even worse. I am thinking of going away from Sony now!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello AvinashKaushik! We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the replacement process, you have gone through, please allow us to review your case to make sure that everything was handled properly, email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com and include your contact information, Event ID number, model, serial number with a description of the issue you are experiencing with this unit. We will get back to you as soon as possible with a solution.
I have had this set about a month. Setup was easy, the box construction really helps this be a one person setup on stand. Streaming is far better than my older LG set. Picture is marvelous overall and I do not have illumination issues in the corners when content is playing - graphic banners, EG Hulu+ banner while waiting for content, is darker in the corners. One issue comes up occasionally, that is an error message when connected to online content that grays out the screen. The message is something along the lines of "Browser will shut down due to internal connection error." It is obviously connected to content but I can not get rid of the grey down and message, even with a restart. I suspect this will be cured with a software or firmware update. Very happy with this TV, would (just might) buy again. The software issue is simply an occasional annoyance and less so than my experiences with some other brands.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hi donmessec, We appreciate bringing this to our attention and we are more than happy to take a look on this matter. Thank you for choosing Sony!
Amazing tv at s great price with excellent picture. Easy to setup and install. Other reviewers claim that sometime part of the picture could be hazy, all u have to do is tune your tv a little bit and it will be gone. Sound us acceptable as well. Great price performance than the Samsung.

Hi Silverstar12 , That's what we like to hear. It's nice to know that you are happy with the TV's quality and performance.
The screen is like a mirror at night, any light in room reflects back at the watcher. Picture has to be adjusted for night and day watching, to account for brightness at night. I also purchased along with at HT-CT770 Sound Bar. TV doesn't alway turn on sound bar automatically. Sometimes I have to recycle power on TV to start sound Bar. Definitely need sound bar, sound from tv alone is very poor! 3D is basically useless, picture quality in bad. The only reason I bought the 3D model was because it has a black frame. If you don't mind the silver frame and then don't 3D get it. I have a 5 year old Sony KDL46EX720 and find the the picture is much better and without glare from lights in room at night.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Annoying, its sad to heat that you're not pleased with your purchase. Let me pass this to the proper department. Thank you.
I cannot tell you how thrilled I am with my purchase. Every program is so sharp and clear. I sometimes lose myself in the picture. It is all so life-like. I have never had a television I enjoyed so much.
Thank you, Sony!

GREAT PRICE. CRYSTAL CLEAR HD PICTURE & AMAZING 3D. THE SPEAKER SYSTEM IS MARGINAL. YOU WILL NEED A HOME THEATER SOUND SYSTEM INORDER TO COMPLIMENT THE AWESOME PICTURE QUALITY. WORKS GREAT FOR A WALL MOUNT.
I would recommend this to a friend!
