I was wary of purchasing this TV due to the the previous reviews, but as I trust Sony and the price was quite good, I decided to go ahead anyway. I use this TV in the bedroom, and it is not linked up to games, speakers etc. so it only has basic use and I can't comment on its total capabilities, however as a bedroom TV/DVD it does the job. It was easy to set up, although I did have to run the scan twice for some reason to pick up all the channels and has a nice clear picture. The remote control is fairly intuitive and it is easy to switch between digital, analogue and the DVD. However the sound is definitely more tinny than my previous (very old) Sony (hence not giving it 5 stars) and the colour was very bright until I toned it down. It also emits a funny smell when it has been used for more than about 30 minutes (I have had it for a month now). Overall I would recommend this TV for a bedroom as long as you are not needing quality sound without speakers. I can't imagine the tinny sound filling a living room though. I am hoping that this TV will last as long as all of my previous Sonys.
