Reproduced somewhat deep black levels; accurate color in bright areas; matte screen works well in bright lighting; solid picture adjustment options; streams video via USB
Dark areas tinged somewhat blue, benefits of 120Hz difficult to discern, some smoothing evident in 1080p/24 processing, fewer picture controls than some competitors
The Sony KDL-EX500 LCD TV incorporates respectable image quality with essential features at a wallet-friendly price.
The meat and potatoes TV for the rest of us. Great colors and highspeed motion performance. Ambient light sensor automatically adjusts brightness and contrast. Easy setup out of the box

Abstract: All the excitement about 3D has rather distracted us from the fact that many viewers haven’t yet caught up with HD. There’s also another revolution going on, in Internet-enabled TV. Sony’s KDL-40EX503 ticks both boxes. As far as ma...
Unless it is important for you to experience the slender profile that comes with LED TVs, the KDL-32EX503 could be a perfect choice at this price level. Sony have created a well positioned screen with a decent feature set which performs well above aver...
Good black levels; Great internet features; Natural colours; Built-in Freeview HD tuner
Some slight motion blur
Excellent sound and picture quality, great Internet services and a Freeview HD tuner combine to make the 40-inch KDL-40EX503 an impressive mid-range TV from Sony....
