Sony BRAVIA KDL-46EX710
$1,800.00
Released July, 2010
The Pros:Good picture - the set produces vivid and bright images with deep black levels. Uses Sony's proprietary 'XMB' media bar for navigation. Thin and lightweight - makes for straight-forward wall mounting.
The Cons:High-gloss bezel/stand - attracts fingerprints and dust. Implements edge-lit LED technology - backlighting isn't as even when compared to full-array LED technology. Only supports 120Hz motion technology - lacks the superior 240Hz mode.
The Bravia KDL-46EX710 is a high-definition television from Sony that offers a step-down from the company's KDL-55EX710 model and a step-up from the KDL-40EX710 model.

Personal content can be ported through Wi-Fi connectivity or USB drive, enabling the unit to function as a digital picture frame or a direct-streaming device for previously-recorded video camera files. Full 1080p high-definition content is supported, providing top-quality viewing of HD and Blu-ray discs as well as Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 console gameplay. Edge LED backlighting provides vivid clarity, with an included "Ambient Sensor" that automatically adjusts brightness and contrast levels to suit the level of light in the room. Improved motion detail is achieved via "Motionflow"120Hz technology, a system that speeds up frame rates and applies an image blur reducer that prevents unwanted distortions on the screen. The 46EX710 also features a number of eco-friendly functions, including the "Presence Sensor" that automatically powers the unit down after 30 minutes of room inactivity. An energy saving switch is also included, allowing users to cut-off power to the TV without having to unplug it from the wall.
