Customer Rating: Summary: waited 2 long 4 a broken t.v Comment: it took 5 week for it 2show up(i had 2 call them 3 times) then 3 weeks it broke.then it took another 3 weeks to get it fix Customer Rating: Summary: Sony Bravia HD TV Comment: This is an incredible HD TV. Sony really produced a winner.
It is a beautiful piece of furniture with the glass surround and what a beautiful picture it produces, ( both HD as well as standard format)
Our neighbor viewed it and ordered one exactly like ours.
Our living room where this is placed is bright with outside light during daylight hours and the mat finish on Sony's screen obscures this and plays extremely well.
Thanks SONY Customer Rating: Summary: Defective display panel. Comment: This TV works fine for the first 4 months, then a vertical dead line appeared and propagated every day.
Called the Repair center and realized this is a typical problem for this TV. Now it is Olympic time and I have no TV to watch!
Simply DO NOT buy this TV. If you really want to give it a shot, buy it with extended warranty.
I am lucky since this TV broke down while still covered under warranty. If not, be prepared for another $2000+ for the display panel replacement.
BTW, as mentioned by someone before, SONY custom service is a disaster!
Customer Rating: Summary: Garbage Comment: 7/22/08:
Just going into week 7 of my new TV,the picture/display was gone. Sony repairman says he has to order a new FB1 mainboard. TV was always connected to a good APC line conditioner/ surge protector, so I doubt any external forces caused the failure. Retailer no help after 30 days, have to go through manufacturer warranty(cringe). 5 years ago, Sony demanded 3 attempts to fix my new home theatre receiver. That took 8 months and never was fixed. Only then did they ship a new unit. But that was 8 months without a unit! With 3K into this TV, I better not go through that again, but willing to bet I do.

Well guess what. Sony replaces FB1 board today and presto, no picture! Now they will try 2 other parts that will take another 2 weeks to install with no guarantees they will fix problem. I guess no diagnosing here, just throw parts at it till something magically works. This TV sucks.And so does Sony. Here we go again. Needless to say, I don't do Sony again in my lifetime. And I so wanted to watch the Olympic games on this set! No going to happen.
Buy something else! Customer Rating: Summary: High Qualiy product from Sony, it's been a while since.. Comment: Love this TV. Excellent HDTV video quality. Very good Standard picture (not many TVs of this size can do that). Initial TV configuration is not very straight forward, but once figured - picture is amazing. I wish all Sony products to be like that.
