For consumers who want an HDTV that keeps pace with fast-action movies, sports, and game play, Sony BRAVIA V-Series Flat Panel HDTVs combine Full HD 1080p performance and Motionflow 120Hz technology for an amazing viewing experience. Motionflow 120Hz takes both high-definition and standard programming a step further by increasing sharpness and detail in fast-moving images for more fluid, natural motion. In addition, BRAVIA V-Series HDTVs use proprietary Image Blur Reduction technology to further enhance the picture for even better performance. The HDTVs also feature BRAVIA Engine 2 technology, which uses exclusive Sony algorithms to reduce visual noise and sharpen and enhance an already-striking dynamic contrast ratio. Additionally, they include seven versatile HD connections to ensure you get impressive image quality from all your HD components. Take advantage of four HDMI inputs, component and composite inputs, and a PC input, as well as a USB input that lets you play audio files from USB storage devices, or connect a compatible camera to your HDTV for a quick and easy slide show. Sony knows your home theater set-up doesn't stop with your HDTV, which is why the BRAVIA V-Series HDTVs are compatible with BRAVIA Link Modules -- including the BRAVIA Wireless Link, BRAVIA DVD Link, and BRAVIA Input Link Modules (all sold separately). The HDTVs also support BRAVIA SyncTM technology so you can control all of your compatible devices with a single remote. And all BRAVIA HDTVs exceed ENERGY STAR 3.0 requirements for in-use and stand-by power consumption, meaning you don't need a lot of power to get a lot of performance.

 "Great TV" 2010-02-14
By N. Ayres (Atlanta, GA)
Great picture and good sound quality. This is my first HDTV and it looks great with vivid and bright colors. HDTV takes it to the next level and I love Sony TVs. A great combination with my new TIVO HD - the only way to watch TV. Free shipping from Amazon gets it to the curb (or garage if you are lucky), you will need help getting it unpacked and in the house.

 "nice tv & what you can connect to it" 2010-02-13
By Todd Chapman (Sterling, MA United States)
I've had this tv for 3 months and I like it a lot. This is a big upgrade from the 27" tube tv it replaces. If you watch any amount of tv and still have an old, small tube tv, a new HD tv will improve your experience in a big way.



This TV: After much research, deliberation, and a number of showroom visits, I decided on this TV. I purchased from another vendor for a bit lower cost, but I did so reluctantly because I have had very good luck with Amazon. The TV showed up well-packaged an in good condition. Set up is easy.



I selected this TV because it is in a bright room with many windows. LCDs are better than plasma for such conditions, I've been told. Also, this Sony has a less glossy screen than other worthy competitors, like Samsung. You can test this by going to a showroom and looking for glare from the store lights on the screens. This TV has worked well in bright conditions.



The picture quality is very good. There are adequate inputs, we have an HD cable DVR, a Sony blue ray player, and an xbox 360, all connected with hdmi (there are 4 hdmi inputs), and a Wii. There is a standard connection for your pc, if the pc doesn't have an hdmi port.



Network / Internet devices: I found that I could view video and pictures stored on my Windows XP PC on the TV using the xbox (connected to a Cisco wireless ethernet bridge, bought at Amazon, works great). To connect to a computer through the xbox, you will need a wired network or a wireless router with an ethernet bridge near the TV. The Blue Ray is a Sony BDP-N460, which connects to the internet and allows viewing of some free and some pay content, including movies, from a number of providers, including Amazon. It is pretty neat and gives choices for on-demand movies that seem less expensive than my cable provider offerings.



To connect multiple devices to the internet you can get a TrendNet ethernet switch at Amazon for $10, which will allow up to 4 internet connections from one cable or wireless bridge. I purchased inexepensive HDMI cables from Amazon, and they seem to work fine (you can pay a lot for cables, the $5-10 versions that I bought work well).



TV sound is OK. I ran an rca cable out to an old stereo and use that for movies when quality sound is desired (obviously a surround sound system would work as well).



Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of the TV, and the other components that make the TV more functional. We live in an amazing era.

 "Everything I Wanted" 2010-02-11
By Julian (Georgia, USA)
Great picture, great sound, and Sony quality all for a good price.

Others have gone to much greater detail than I care to, but I'll just say I don't think anyone will be disappointed with this TV purchase.



Although I realize this isn't much of a review, I simply wanted to express my satisfaction to others.

 "Dare to Dream!" 2010-02-04
By Jay (So. New Jersey)
The 52V5100 was everything I hoped for from an inexpensive, big-screen, HDTV.



Set up was no effort (open box, remove TV, plug in, turn on) but took 20-minutes to find all of the available channels. The 52V5100 found more than I expected. Not only did it bring in the analogue cable TV channels (I haven't upgraded yet) but also the 50 or so, over the air, digital channels (in the Philadelphia PA area). Therefore, watching analogue cable looked bad on the big screen but there were also all of the local HDTV channels. Watching football on Fox was in HD and much, much better than the regular cable version.



Once the channels were in it was time to be judgmental. My last HDTV was a 32-inch LG and I spent two weeks trying to get the colors the way I wanted them. The 52V5100 was perfect out of the box. Blacks look ideal in programming however some people's jet-black hair lacked definition (too black?). Picture quality looked excellent. No blurring during a football game. Colors looked perfect. Images look good even at angles.



First video test was a standard DVD using an up-scaling DVD player and the images looked very good to me. No blurring through action sequences. Two people said that "King Kong" looked fake. I don't know if that was the movie itself or the player leaving out some detail.



Negatives:

No picture in picture (get what you pay for).

Remote is nothing to be excited about. It's a little thin with a rounded bottom. It doesn't have the Sony "return button" that goes back to the last entered channel while channel surfing. It could be more intuitive by having the primary buttons in the middle. I've had worse remotes (like Comcast's).

Monitor's HDMI slots are mostly on the side of the TV, with only one located on the back.

Sound is average.



Definitely would recommend. Price paid at local Mom/Pop TV shop in January 2010 was: $1,199

 "Love it! Hope it is reliable for many years to come!" 2010-01-30
By Ferne E. Tellinghuisen (California)
Excellent TV. Asked if it was reliable and about it's lifespan? Of course one doesn't know, but we're trusting that Sony will rate 5 stars in these areas as well.
