  • When it comes to 2D, the Sony EX723 is a good LED edge-lit LCD TV. Its biggest down-sides are the fact that its deepest blacks are purple-tinted, and its 3D capabilities are marred by some unusual looking crosstalk. Like many LCD-based 3DTV displays, ther...

  • The Sony Bravia EX723 is an exceptional television. Inside its sleek design, it offers accurate colours and a HD picture that comes very close to perfection. But it's much more average in 3D, with very strong crosstalk meaning it loses a star....

  • Abstract:  Sony's Internet options are progressing, though they are not as user friendly as some we've tested. One must download the Internet content upon setup. The EX720 contains Netflix, Crackle, Qriocity, Pandora, Hulu Plus...

  Published: 2011-08-08, review by: lcdtvbuyingguide.com

  • Abstract:  Color rendition is realistic and this TV processes the picture well through composite video input – at least as far as color and black levels go. Viewing angle, and loss of detail in dark scenes (esp. with a background light soure) are recurrent issu...

  • The KDL-46EX720 is a very good all-purpose HDTV for a more casual viewing experience. With an average black level and lack of brightness uniformity, it's not ideally suited for a dedicated theater environment, but it's a great choice for sports, gaming...

  • The Sony KDL-55EX720 is a fine value as a solid-performing 2D set, with accurate color, good detail, and some of the best black levels and shadow detail I've seen in this price range. In 3D, it shows considerable ghosting. While that may put off some vie...

  • Abstract:  PCMag did not test the Sony Bravia KDL-40EX720. We did, however, test and review the Sony Bravia KDL-46EX720 from the same series. A notch larger than the 32-inch KDL-32EX720, the Sony Bravia KDL-40EX720 ($1,079 direct) is a 40-inch edge-lit LED HDTV w...

  • Sony has added a range of new features for their Smart TV platform and the graphic interface has also been changed, for example the App interface. Remote functionality, USB recording and unified search are all cool new additions but I was disappointing to...

  • The Sony KDL-EX720 has accurate color in bright areas; handles 1080p/24 content properly; and is extremely energy-efficient. Its automatic turn-off feature saves power and its matte screen reduces glare in brighter rooms. It has solid Internet services, i
  • It reproduces lighter black levels, and its darker areas are tinged blue. The Sony KDL-EX720 cannot customize dejudder processing and has less-even screen uniformity
  • The picture quality of Sony's KDL-EX720 shows some flaws but its efficiency, design, and well-stocked feature list will win plenty of converts.
