Sony KDL-40X3000

Advantages: Accurate Colours, Deep Blacks, Great HD picture
Disadvantages: Below-par video processing, expensive

...This television, for me, offers essentially everything - but at a price. Aesthetics wise, it is excellent, the glass surround adding an extra element of design often missing in new televisions. There are plenty of connections available for use on the X3000/X3500, including HDMIx3 and Componentx3, and a USB slot. Generally, I feel the Television offers very good image quality via SD Freeview, Sky or Virgin Media. During fast action scenes such as sports, the video processing of the Bravia Engine Pro lets the set down a bit - occasionally pixelated areas appear. This can be improved by activating the 'MotionFlow 100Hz' feature available, but it cannot be truely eliminated. However, HD is, as is most sets, where the Sony shines. The picture quality on Blu-Ray discs and the PlayStation 3 is excellent, with little to no motion blurring...

The Lite-and-"Bright" PSP3000

Advantages: Better screen, built-in mic and the same great PSP experience
Disadvantages: Not much of an upgrade for existing (Slim&Lite) owners

...The PSP3000 is the successor to the not-so-long-ago released PSP Slim&Lite. And while everyone was not thrilled at the changes (there is not really much compared to the previous edition), as things stand now, this is the best version of the PSP yet. There?s a few new features: # The screen is a lot more vivid and gets shows the colors better (my roommate has the old one and I have the PSP3000 - you can plainly see the differences in color rendering) # The screen is based on a newer technology that has faster refresh rates and eliminates ghosting (which was a minor nuisance on the Slim&Lite) # There?s a built-in mic that allows you to chat on skype (also built-in!) and other messenger application without the need for an external microphone. The other advantage is that you don't need a proprietary PSP-headset anymore; just about any...

The LG LH3000 The truh

Advantages: cheap, 1080p brillaint sound, AV mode design... everything really
Disadvantages: --

... LG LH3000 Intro I got this TV for my birthday for my room, it was £400 from argos which i thought was a bargin, and so it was. 1080p, 32", 80,000 to one sound contrast, 50hz, freeview, brillaint look and an energy saving button. i got this tv mainly to play on my ps3, i heard that 1080p and game consoles just made it so much more than a game, and it does, the size is the perfect the picture is wicked, but lets get into detail Design The LG3000 is glossy black just like a ps3 with invisible sound speakers. this makes the TV look as good as it can, sometimes if you put holes in a TV it either looks ugle or dust gets in it etc etc but this just gets ride of that problem and gets a better result (ill explane later) it comes with a stand easy to install and a plastic cover for when putting on a wall (cant see it just...

Bravo Sony

Advantages: It is amazing, it sounds good, it looks good
Disadvantages: None

...New house, new furniture and a new television to boot, with all of this talk about the digital age I wanted to make sure that we had a decent enough television that was HD ready and a fairly decent size. My last television was a mere 28 inches and very old looking and bulky and I definitely did not want that in the new house, well maybe in the bedroom. So to my delight John came home with a lovely 40 inch Sony Bravia KDL-40D3000 to give it its full title and my god in comparison to my other television it is huge, it actually feels like it takes up half of the lounge. Anyway this super television has the following features: •Motionflow+100Hz for smooth motion •24p True Cinema for viewing in accurate cinema experience •Theatre Mode picture settings optimised by Sony Pictures Entertainment •Bravia Theatre...

Review of Sony KDL-40D3000

Sony...putting the E in Excellent!

Advantages: A superb visual and audio treat!
Disadvantages: Bravia Ex engine ! not pro...we want PRO!!!!!!

...The Sony KDL is a multi-functional full HD (high definition) television with audio loudspeakers. It's a brilliant product in today's cutting edge technology. Somehow the new LCDs seem to better their forerunners with improved technology, enhanced design (on already very sleek designs) and improved performance. FEATURES OF THE SONY KDL-46W3000 Enhanced colour reproduction functions - Firstly the colour reproduction features sport an x.v technological function which magnifies the range of colours by 2. This,in turn, allows the screen resolution to appear 'more natural' (as Sony claim) and detailed (a true delight to the eye) and its execution is sublime. In short the eye possesses colour characteristics which they are used to and Sony have created a technology that will allow the LCD's colour range to coincide...

Sony NW-A3000 Black Hard Drive audio player

Advantages: Sounds amazing, looks cool, clear screen, easy to use, feels good, good weight
Disadvantages: No support for ogg, connect software is useless, slight hesitation on menus, no remote

...would like. This is most noticeable when trying to skip to the next track, the display shows the new song but you get about a seconds silence before it starts playing. Its not a biggy, but moving from an old sharp minidisc where this happened instantly I did notice it. Using Sony's ATRAC3plus file format sound quality is amazing, I cannot fault it. Mp3's still sound good, but arent a patch on Sony's own format, and take up more space. The supplies ear phones have a good clear sound, but to me lack bass, and I found them very uncomfortable to wear. They dont come with any covers, which means hard plastic into the ear and when I did put some of my own covers on, they were too big to fit in my ears. Using my own ear phones with the A3000 gave just as good sound quality, but with more welcome bass. Personally I would have liked to see ogg...

KDL-20S3000 Review

Advantages: Beautiful and Practical.
Disadvantages: Nothing worth fussing about.

...are a tiny bit blocky, and movement does blur a little: you might want to double check the information on Plasma, to confirm which one is right for you, both Plasma and LCD have flaws, so it is up to you to personally decide. On Which? sony has 65% rating. My parents kept going on about how beautiful the image was. The sound, it was clear and detailed, and a big sound for a little telly. The blacks are back. The whites are brilliant white. Infact, my parents old JVC... we compared the TVs. Theirs is one of the chunkies, not flat screen - their whites looked PINK next to the Sony. It is such a smart television. The controls are easy to use. One PROBLEM I had was that I couldn't get the Sony to pick up the HDMI connection. The KDL-20S3000's HDMI AV socket is AV 4. I spoke to Sony LCD line, and I spoke to Sony PS3. They...

Review of Sony KDL 20S3000

Move over Sony! LG are in the picture now!

Advantages: Superb picture and sound
Disadvantages: Can't think of any

...'s more expensive Sony and found the LG to be better. Minutes later, I was going through Comet's "Click and Collect" on their website. The next day, I went to pick it up. What Is It? The LG 32LH3000 has a spec that you need to see on their site, but the highlights are: Size: 32" LCD Inputs: HDMI, PC, 2 Scart, audio and video Sound: Internal speakers, but can output to surround sound systems Freeview: Yes In the Box, First surprise to find was that it is quite light. I fully expected it to need two of us to get it in and out the car. Aside from the bulk, it is light enough for one person. Removing the packaging, inside we found the television itself, a stand, a cover plate for the stand slot in case you wall mounted it, screws for the stand/wall mountings, power cable, remote with batteries, CD with the full manual, brief...

Sony Bravia

Advantages: The picture quality is excellent
Disadvantages: The sound quality could be better

...The picture quality is absolutely superb, yet again sony has made an outstaning product. I have it connected to my ps3 and it does 1080p resolution which is crystal clear, although the sound quality could be better. But i solved this problem by simply connecting it to a surroundsound system and now its absolutely fine. If you're considering getting one then i advise you not to put it on a wall bracket because it is quite hard to connect other devices to the t.v as you cant see whats behind it.I would also advise you to buy a surround sound sstem, i personally know that bose make really high quality ones, although they are expensive they are absolutely worth it. This t.v is simply 40 inches of unblemished perfection. I would advise you to buy this t.v....

Sony NW-A3000 MP3 20GB

Advantages: Very robust and well designed. Can access tracks easily
Disadvantages: Downloading music slow. Quality of music can be poor. Can come on if button knocked without you knowing in the case.

...Well I received this present from my wife this Christmas so am still playing with it at present. I have been looking for an MP3 player a while but the price of the large ones seems pointless (I had a little 256mb which was rubbish). My opinion of the I-Pods was poor and I was looking at Creative when I was given this. We have a lot of Sony products and I think the quality outways the cost. The walkman is very stylish and of good size to avoid getting damaged. I received a leather case for it and it seems good. I am not to happy about the headphones as they don't stay in my ears very well but will change them shortly. I went through the quick set up guide and loaded the software onto my Sony laptop. It does take a long time to download the software and the instructions do warn you about that. You also need a internet connection to...
