Amazing set,
This is truly one of the top two sets currently available. Bright, great black levels. Excellent color, very adjustable. Earlier HX929 sets had issues with “creases” in the picture edges which do not appear here. I do not see any blooming either. Off axis quality drops as with all LCD direct view sets, but a little sooner than most. Not a problem for most reasonable viewing positions. Stand is solid unlike the 55. Highly recommended!

Best 3D LCD,
If you look at the professional reviews, you will see them all praising this as the best LCD out with deep blacks and vibrant colors. This TV also has lots of wonderful widgets like YouTube HD and Twitter but for me, 3D is the real show here. Yes, this TV’s picture quality is one that has to be seen with such rich colors. However, I wanted a show stopper 3DTV has well. Though this TV is 240hz like other sets out there, Sony is using some version of the Bravia engine with a tech they call MotionFlow960 and as far as I can tell, this has taken any form of ghosting and stutter out of the 3D. I’d first seen this TV during CES 2011 and knew that I wanted and finally, a little over a year later, I’ve got it. The 3D is smooth and doesn’t cause headaches. The 3D pops when it needs to and has depth when it needs to (remember that it’s up to the film maker to use the 3D as they wish). However, unless passive televisions which only do 720p very eye, Active Shutter based 3D sets deliver a 1080p image to each eye and lets be honest, I didn’t buy a 1080p TV and put a blu-ray film in to watch it in 720p. This TV also uses the newer Sony 3D glasses which are more light and charge via USB though for this price, there should be at least 2 3D glasses in the box.
Is the TV a bit pricey? Sure is and if you want the best TV you can get, I would say look at the 55-inch version which is almost half the cost. However, for me, having previously owned a 60″ Sony SXRD, it was hard to step down in size and so a 65-inch it was. Having spent the last year saving for it, I knew that I’d made the right decision and with movies like TRON: Legacy in 3D and games like Killzone 3 and Uncharted 3 via the PlayStation 3 in 3D; I am one happy camper!
