Sony BRAVIA KDL-40S5100
$1,000.00
Released March, 2009
The Pros:Wide variety of inputs, including 3 HDMI and standard VGA. Works well with gaming consoles, no noticeable lag. Menu options are clear and easy to read.
The Cons:The auto-dimming feature tends to over-react, needs a firmware update to behave properly. Need a PC to get a copy of the latest firmware - won't work through a Mac. At low volume the sound quality is poor, everything is unintelligible - need to turn it up for the quality to be cleaned up.
