What reviewers say

Reviewers agree it brings Sony's natural, nuanced picture and clean sound to a lower price, with good backlight control and strong value. Both noted occasional colour slips and only two HDMI ports suited to high-frame-rate gaming; What Hi-Fi? also saw backlight clouding from an angle.
