Sony - BRAVIA 50" KDF-50E3000 1080p Rear-Projection LCD HDTV Review Summary

The Sony Bravia 50” KDF-50E3000-1080 Rear Projection HDTV is one of the most highly rated televisions on our site and there are many reasons why. First of all, and most importantly is the “beautiful” and “crystal clear” image on the television. “It’s like being at the movies” raves one reviewer who enjoys quality. Our reviewers also noted, however, that the Sony Bravia is “easy to use” even for those “over the 50 year old age bracket.” The chief complaint? The remote is too big. Want to compare?

After months of trying to play Guitar Hero on a 27" tube tv, my boyfriend and I decided it was time for an upgrade. We spent a long time looking at LCDs, plasmas, and rear-projection DLPs. After weighing the pros and cons of each type (plasmas had image burn danger, but beautiful colors; LCDS had slow response time in gaming, but a slim design; and rear-projection tvs have a burdensome thickness, but virtually no danger of image burn or slow response time) we decided that a rear-projection was right for our needs. (We need gaming capabilities,… read full review »

We just bought this Sony Projection LCD. It has a great picture! It's easy to use even for us in the over 50 age bracket. Research told us that these are less likely to break, and if they do, repairs are resonable. It set up easily with our cable, vcr/dvd, and surroud sound. We also found you can get more for you money inch wise if you want a big screen. Isn't as thin as an lcd or plasma and it's not wall mountable, but we had a beautiful entertainment center we still wanted to use, so that wasn't a problem for us. It's light enough for me to slide out and dust behind on my own. The only draw… read full review »
