Strengths: Excellent picture quality along with a number of advanced technologies

Weaknesses: Cheap finish, uneven backlight and clumsy cross media-bar

The Sony KDL46W5500 LCD TV is no ordinary television but is a step ahead in the field of technology. It comes in a sleek black design and has excellent picture quality. It has a 46 inch display with high resolution which is perfect for playing high end games and watching movies. These have Bravia Engine 3, which gives optimal contrast, truer-to life tones and vibrant colors. The advanced contrast enhancer helps to experience deep blacks in the darkest scenes. The sound and picture settings can be easily done with the one-touch scene select option present on the remote control. The user can also adjust the brightness of the picture according to the light levels in the room.

You can use the Sony KDL46W5500 LCD TV as your digital photo frame. Just use the picture frame mode and display the pre-installed images on the screen. It has only two front speakers which gives digital surround sound effect. With the DLNA home networking technology, you can access the contents from your PC on the television. Blu-ray Disc and PLAYSTATION3 can also be connected to the TV very easily.

The menus on peripheral devices like Handycam camcorders can be accessed with the help of BRAVIA Sync. The Swivel function helps you to find the prefect position for the television screen. Watching television had never been so pleasant. Now you can also share videos, music and photos with friends and family with the help of USB Media Player. The only thing that can keep away the users from buying the television is the cheaper look. The lit Sony logo is replaced with the glued-on plastic logo. The cross media-bar is quite clumsy. But overall, based on performance the Sony KDL46W5500 LCD TV is a good choice.
