    Let me start by saying I gave my 5 star evaluation based on the capabilities of a ccfl backlit LCD vs other similar tvs. Obviously this tv will not do quite as well against an RGB LED backit XBR... anyway, I love this TV!!! I have spent a lot of time comparing 46" sets in this price bracket and the EX500 blew them all away in my opinion. I actually bought an LG 47LH40 and had it at home for a week. This gave me time to fully evaluate it for my primary purposes - games, blu-ray, and PC. Both have beautiful color, but the Sony stands out with better black levels and contrast. The 120hz processing on the Bravia is much more natural with less artifacts and cleaner panning camera scenes. The Bravia also seems to handle fast motion better than the LG at 60hz. (Very important if you're a gamer) The Bravia also has some things that I use that the LG lacks: built in cable tuner, PIP on the PC input, and analog audio output (the acoustics in my living room are great for my analog stereo, don't judge me lol.) All in all, I think this television has superior picture quality, better looking motion, and more cool features than any of the others in its price range. The value of this LCD is fantastic, I think it's a bargain for what you take home. This is probably about as good as it gets for a fluorescent backlit LCD right now. WELL worth the money. I also still have a 32" Bravia that I bought 3 years ago and still love. It's proven reliable and still looks great, so I have no hesitation in buying another one. The only reason I didn't get this tv to begin with was because I had to find it online as they were too new and not on showroom floors yet.

    SO FAR SO GOOD - BUY EXTENDED WARRANTY ON SONY TV

    So far this TV is doing really well. I was very surprised at the picture quality on this TV. I have another model from Sony the KDL46V5100 which has turned into a complete nightmare. When I got the first TV I was so in love with it and then after 14 months the issues with it are just crazy. Thank God I had an extended warranty. If you buy one of these TV's make sure you get an extended warranty!!! I've always been a Sony person and buy everything that is Sony but the last few months I have been going thru a nightmare. Please do your research on TV's. Go to Google and type in the model number of the TV you are looking at and look at the reviews. Also go to Youtube and do a search on Sony TV's and you will be surprised at what you find. This is a very nice TV but I hope it will last. When I bought it I didnt get the extended warranty because of Sony's name and reputation, but after the mess I have been going thru I called Dell back and got 3 more years warranty added to this TV for $150. That will be nothing if they have to replace this one also. My other KDL46V5100 has 2 more service calls left on it and then at that point they have to give me a new one and I'm not picking a Sony. I got it thru Conns and they stopped selling Sony TV's. I am thinking it was because their reliability has went south and they were losing so much money on them. I asked the lady that sold me mine 14 months ago and she just laughed and said she couldnt comment on the situation. So OK if you wanna take a chance on a Sony TV then this is a nice one but be sure and get the extended warranty. If anyone is not having issues, then great I'm so happy for you, but you dont know my situation so dont comment and say that this is an isolated incident. Search the internet with Google and look at the problems Sony TV's are having and thats all that needs to be said.

    Delivery Service Was Terrible

    By CustomerofthePast

    from Alexandria VA

    Comments about Sony KDL-46EX500 46-inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV:

    White Glove Delivery Service costs $120 for my Television. They are supposed to deliver the TV, screw it into the TV stand, place the TV on the furniture, and hook up at least one device. Instead, I screwed the TV into the stand, I put it on the furniture, and the delivery man REFUSED to hook up anything, because, he "Didn't know how, and didn't want to mess anything up." DB Shenker was the delivery company.

    Nice TV

    By Kenection

    from Hickory Hills, IL

    Comments about Sony KDL-46EX500 46-inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV:

    When I bought this TV I went to the store expecting to buy a different Sony model with internet and such but the 120Hz changed my mind. The two TV's were next to each other and that 120Hz vs. 60Hz makes a difference. Sound was tinney at first but the built in eqaulizer let me adjust to my pleasure. For everyday usage I think this is a great TV.

    Excellent Picture Quality

    By McKoy

    from Richmond, VA

    Comments about Sony KDL-46EX500 46-inch 1080p 120Hz LCD HDTV:

    This TV has one of the best picture qualities for its price range. I have a 52 inch Sony Downstairs that has all the Bells and Whistles along with 240Hz and this TVs picture is just as good. Sony makes a good product and I purchased the warranty for 2 years and never had to use it. Every TV in the house currently is a Sony and I could'nt be more pleased.
