Sony BRAVIA KDL40EX523 40-Inch

Sony BRAVIA KDL40EX523 40-Inch This TV is very good and could have been great if it were not for the crappy internet experience. The form factor itself is very nice, very thin, light and sturdy, with a small bezel. It sets very quickly and easily. The picture in HD is stunning: beautiful color, very sharp with very black blacks. But SD pictures are often vague and a bit washed that makes watching SD drag.  My 3 year old Sony 32-inch displays SD much better than this. The viewing angle is just ok. Looking ahead, the TV looks great. If you move to the side of the images degrades quickly. At first I thought the sound was below average. After tweaking the settings it sounds very well now. If you're and audiophile you will however need an amplifier with separate speakers. I have not had a problem with the 60 Hz.  I suppose it might be somewhat of a problem if I watched more sports. It is the Internet interface that is the weakness of this TV. I have 40EX523 with integrated Wi-Fi. No need for a separate dongle on this one.

This is HOT Product and Best-Selling Sony BRAVIA KDL40EX523 40-Inch tend to SELL OUT VERY FAST!!
If this is a MUST HAVE product, be sure to order now to avoid disappointment





Charging time for most of the internet programs are quite slow - much slower than my beloved Roku box. Netflix interface is very bad. You can not search and it is even difficult to see the titles of many of the films on the screen because they are so small. Sony BRAVIA KDL40EX523 40-Inch The Sony picture is much worse than Netflix Netflix on the Roku box. Colors on the Sony Netflix are a bit washed out and the picture is not sharp. The Sony picture on both Hulu and Amazon seem almost as good as the Roku. Again, the interface for both Hulu and Amazon's much worse than the Roku. Crackle is not even worth using. It takes forever to load, then reload to keep, despite fast internet download speeds. It's almost impossible to go back to where you left off in a movie. It works so bad that I'm surprised that Sony includes in the first place. They must work well and get rid of. I would recommend buying this TV without Internet connectivity (40EX520) and do not bother with heavily overpriced internet dongle. Do yourself a favor and buy a Roku box for $ 79 and use it to stream TV shows and movies. It is far superior to anything Sony has to offer on this TV. Sony BRAVIA KDL40EX523 40-Inch Sony engineers have studied the Roku box and interface, and use what they learn this rather pathetic internet offering to improve. Unlike the Internet, this is really a very good, satisfying television.
